Integrotion Going Smoothly
Baltimore Official Soys

BALTIMORE, Sept. II. (AP)-
Things are going so smoothly
there is no need for comment, "
Walter Sondheim, president of
the school board. said yesterday
after receiving a breakdown on
the mixed enrolment of whites
and Negroes.
Baltimore has the only Mary
land schools without segrega-
ton.
The mixing has worked both
ways. Six white children en-
rolled in three elementary
schools formerly for Negroes
only. John j. Fischer, superin-
tendent, reported.
He told the Board of School
Commissioners there is q total
of 1886 white students and
55,331 Negroes enrolled.
In most cases, he reported, the
number Of Negroes attending
schools formerly limited to
whites is very small. One excep-
ton has 3a2 whites and 321
Negroes.

Negro children are taken BY

Mr.. bearing said Is Negro
children were denied admission
to the school Monday. He argued
they should have been admitted
because the school is on Govern

Don't Cheat On Traffic Laws
Safety Week, Sept. 20 rs


You wouldn't cheat at cards. (.
and you'd resent it heartily if any
one suggested that you might cheat
in business. but how about cheat
ing just a bit on traffic laws?
If you're like a great many driv-
ers, you'll have to admit that there
have been occasions when you
have disregarded a traffic sign, ex-
ceeded the speed limit or been
guilty of some other infraction of
traffic laws or regulations.
"But," you say hastily, 81 only
do it when it's perfectly safe. I'd
never think of doing if it there
were any danger involved!"
There's always danger involved.
And the fact that it's not apparent
often makes it more treacherous.
For instance, you may come
upon "School, Slow" sign when
travelling on a clear stretch of road.
AS far as you can see there isn't
child around. But this doesn't
excuse you from the obligation of
slowing down. Children have an un-
canny way of seeming to mater
ialize from nowhere. One might

A radio news commentator broad
casting last week from President
Eisenhower's fishing camp high in
the mountain fastness of Colorado,
said plaintively: They can say
what they like about Harry Tru-
man, but at least he spent his
vacations in Key West. City
inspectors are working overtime to
put an end to the practice of
Miami contractors coming to Key
West to do construction jobs over
the weekend when they think they
will be unobserved. Since they
operate without a license, they
can naturally underbid local con-
tractors considerably. There has
been one arrest-a Miami tile con-
tractor doing work in a Duval St.
store-with more promised in the
future. It's not too late to join
the Key West Quarterback Club.

It's the same way with traffic
signals, turning and passing regu:
lations, and all of the rest of the
traffic laws and regulations. Their
function is to protect you and
everyone else who uses the streets
and highways. They can't protect
you if you ignore them.
Never ask yourself, "Is it safe to
cheat a little this time?" Make up
your mind, once and for all, that
it's never safe to cheat on traffic
laws. g ~

BE CAREFUL: DON'T LET THE CITY'S
FIRE BELL TOLL FOR YOU

Yesterdays observance of Safety Week. began in
Key West and elsewhere in Monroe County. This
Ing and yesterday morning the fire bell began to toll at
o'clock for each traffic death in Monroe County during
this year That tong reminded of what John Donne
who was born nearly four centuries ago; said about the
tolling of bell: send to know for whom the
bell tolls; it tolls for thee
The bell has tolled more than million times in the
United States for people who lost their lives in traffic
cidents In each the tong beforehand
ture in relation to fes expectancy. That why The
Citizen regards this warning the best of the many
warnings constantly drummed into the of reckless
drivers:
'Drive carefully, for the life you may be your
own"
All of the more than million who have been killed
In traffic accidents since the invention of the automobile
not to blame for the loss of their lives They
the victims of careless drivers. But great majority of
the lives lost probably nine-tenths of them due
recklessness
All of may not agree what is reckless driving.
It is not wholly confined to speeding may drive
slowly and still be reckless driver he looks from side
to side at objects along street highway Two years
ago, Miami Beach driving to Key West for
days outing. He not driving fast, but he not
keeping his the road ahead He looking only
second two at time at the scenery his right and
left During of those seconds his crashed headon
into the right concrete post at the entrance to the Stock
Island bridge and he and his nephew who with him
were killed.
Don't take your eyes second off the road That
advice particularly applicable to the Overseas High
way for, during second car, moving at only 80 miles
an hour, can over the apron of the road.
Let's consider driving in Key West. Sam Goldsmith,
our efficient weatheran, says you've got to be the
qui vve when you drive in Key West, else" He's
right You take chance you not watchful every
second.
Listen at o'clock every morning this week to the
tong of the fire bell Each toll the loss of life
in traffic accident in Monroe County. Those for whom
the bell tolls thought you think that it would
not toll for them result of fatal traffic accident
If you careless driver, keep in mind the tolng
of the bell when you feel urge to violate traffic
lations when you itch speed by the ahead of
or when foot presses harder and harder your

DOG LICENSES

Editor, The Citizen:
Recently your paper published letter from Mrs. J.
Roberts requesting information the laws and-or orn-
ances governing dogs within the City.
You listed several ordinances which is supposed to
these animals The first you listed covered the
running at large of dogs. If this allowed they
to be picked by the Humane Society and taken
of for three days is evident the the City andor the
Humane Society do not have any to enforce laws,
there large number of dogs running at large both
nights and days and l would consider some of them
dangerous they act that way.
You did not list an ordinance covering the licensing
of dogs but there is ordinance covering this
however there number of dogs the streets with
license tags
Dogs, as number of us know, are very disturbing,
especially at nights when they bark at every thing that
goes by, this is true even if they on leash.

Some States
Won't Change
Clocks Now
BY HENRY SUPPLE

BOSTON Up - Remember that
hour of sleep you lost in April
when your state went on daylight
saving time?
Well, you can have it back next
Sunday unless you live in
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New
Hampshire or q few communities
in Vermont.
The reason: the Massachusetts
legislature decided last spring that
whatever benefits accrue from
having daylight time from the last
Sunday in April to the last Sunday
in September would be enhanced
considerably if extended to the last
Sunday In October.
Rhode Island and New Hamp-
shire followed suit and a few Ver-
mont towns near Massachusetts, or
New Hampshire figured it might
lessen the confusion by doing like
wise.
But don't 60 losing another
hours sleep trying to figure what
time it is when you are in New
England. Without the aid of an
abacus or slide rule you can see
there are chances for some dandy
time-saving. For instance:
II you take a plane from Boston
to New York next week and there
is a good tailwind you can leave
at noon, EDIT, and arrive at La
Guardia Field at noon, too - EST,
that is.
Or if you live in Brattleboro,
Bennington, Rutland or Bellows
Falls, VT. Gall staying on daylight
time) you can "save" an hour in
driving to the state capital at
Montpelier, which is going back
on standard time.
In Maine, the Legislature meets
today on the time problem. If
Maine doesn't stay On daylight
time, it could be quite a "slow"
trip from Portland to Boston. A
fast train takes about two hours,
but if you left Portland at S pm.
