Weekend Killers

A grim reminder of the hazards Of
weekend driving has come from an
authoritative Source-analystS of group
of accident insurance companies. The
StatiSticianS found that 1870 men,
women and children were killed last year
in over-the weekend traffic crashes
More than fifth of the fatal accidents
occurred on Saturday The weekend
record on the Nations highways was
worse last year than in any previous year.
AS result of the study, the Travellers
Insurance Companies have published a
booklet of street and highway accident
data under the title Fatal FallacieS."
Among fallacies listed as "deadliest,"
based on Investigations of last years
accidents, were: That the speed Of human
reflexes is match for the speed of
today's superpowered cars; that it is safe
to pour it on on the straightaway If
visibility is good and the road dry; that
the "homing instinct" will assure safe
arrival of driver who is weary or in
toxicated; that rules of the road are Just
for beginners and that built-in safety
features permit relaxation in careful
ness.
In IS per cent of last years accidents
the drivers-not the automobiles or the
highways-were at fault. And drivers
seem more inclined to speed and take
chances when they are on weekend
pleasure trips than at any other time.
II motorists could be induced to take

TV in Russia

According to Moscow publication,
the Soviet Union has decided to go in
for televiSion in very big way. At
present only IL Russian cities have TV
broadcaSting stations, and the number OF
receiving sets-compared to the total in
the United StateS-represents but tiny
fraction of the countrys population. But
now all that is to be changed. BY 1860,
or so the Kremlin plans, this magical
electronic thing will be in operation
throughout the length and breadth Of
the USSR.
Anyhow, the Kremlin is undertaking
to build a great network of facilities
comparable to our own, so that TV-with
the help of coaXial cables and scores Of
relay transmitterS will practically sat-
urate the entire country. Meanwhile,
presumably, living standards will rise
sufficiently to enable the average Russian
to save enough rubles to buy receiving
SET AS for programs, it is not clear just
how they will be developed Up to now
the Soviet televiewer-except in rare in
stanceS-haS been treated to pretty dull
fare. In due time, however, especially if
Mr.. Khrushchev and the other COLLECTIVE
leaders" are really serious about making
life bit less severe over there, it is
possible that Russia will have its own
equivalent of our type of varied television
shows-but probably with few if any
commercials.
The Russian people, as they face this
prospect, should understand that TV is
not an unmixed blessing. 1t is potent
intruder upon the mind, distractor,
competitor for attention, thing that
can be at once delight and an affection.
1t devours talent. Sometimes it inspires,
but often it bores. And it has been
known to sow discord within the family
circle Still, despite all its dubious aspects,
it is a truly wondrous device that ma
terializes people out of the thin air and
brings them into the living room even
when all the windows are closed. Let us
hope that 1t will serve in its own way,
when 1t finally covers the whole USSR,
to help humanize the Soviet system and
somehow make it less unlike that of the
televiewing free world.

and still faithful to Marxist
dogma. the pilgrimage of re-
pentance of the Soviet leaders
to Belgrade seems by hind
sight to have been inevitable,
and this foreshadowed the new
anti-Stalinist line. With this
excess baggage out of the way,
the enemy becomes mort dan
gerous.

Washington needs more
teachers for smaller classes,
not only for the slow learners,
but also for the many bright
children. We have four high
schools sending IS to 80 per
cent of their graduates to COL
lege, far more than the aver
age American high school
sends. We talk about smaller
classes for the bright ones, but
we herd them into classes of
35 to 40. year after year-and
hope that next year, somehow,
new teachers will be added.
These children are our one
bright hope for the future.
How much more we could do
with and for them if we didn't
have to take them in herds and

Postal Deficits
James J. Laughlin.

In his reply to the letter of
A. P. Mills. Assistant Post
master General Robertson
states:
1T is our view that it would
be more fair and equitable to
have those who directly bene-
fit from postal services pay a
larger share of postal costs"
That sounds like a fair view
point. Let us examine a few
facts. First-class mail is pres
emily showing a profit. This
category of mail has been pay
ing its way. and more, since
1882. The deficit on second
class matter newspapers and
magazines) is $3.50 million.
The rate bill proposed by Mr..
Summerfield and now under
consideration by the House
Post Office Committee would
raise but SIT million from Sec
ond-class mail.
There will still be a deficit
of $243 million in the second
class mail category. If Gen.
Robertson's reasoning is valid.
why should not the second
class rate be raised 500 per
cent to make newspapers and
magazines pay their way?
Under no logical system OF
reasoning can the users of
proflt-making first class mail
be asked to pay for the second
class subsidy. That was the
point made so effectively by
Mr.. Mills. He is on sound
ground.
Postal deficits are inevitable
so long as Congress continues
the highly desirable policy OF
carrying newspapers and mag
azines through the mails at a
loss. To raise the rate on Sec
ond-class mail by 500 per cent
would destroy our free press.

For More Teachers

Our President hopes to make
Washington a model school
system for the Nation. You
can't do this by stinting on
teachers. by hiring rs elemen-
tary teachers when 1870 are
needed, as a first inStallment,
to cut class size down to "a.
Above all. you can't do it
by taking so salaries away
from the hard-pressed Sec
ondary schools. Why should
Washington, alone among
United States cities, consider
tearing down, rather than
building up, its secondary
schools? While Russian high
schools teach five years of
physics, four years of chem
istry, four years of mathe-
mates. some Of our city high
schools may not be able to
offer any physics or chemistry
or advanced mathematics if
this 50-salary transfer goes
through.
High school teachers are
fervently hoping our Senators
will vote for the whole 1870
elementary salaries needed,
and then will vote for so ad-
ditional secondary salaries to
reduce academic classes to a
maximum of 35.
We have long been disturbed
because a misleading way of
computing pupil ratios has
concealed the fact that Sec
ondary school loads are heav-
Ter here than elsewhere. Over
size classes occur most often,
unfortunately, in the academic
and business subjects, the basic
subjects of the whole cur
riculum.
We now have the appalling
total of 440 classes over 40 and
1888 classes over IS, in acade-
mic subjects alone. in Junior
and senior high schools. (See
