In Traffic Feared
In Next 10 Years

HARTFORD, Conn, Nov. "a
up. A Governors highway
safety committee warned toda )
that unless the mounting rate
OF traffic casualties is reversed,
the 1866 decade will see 500

by Gov. Abraham Ribicoff OF
Connecticut. its chairman.
The committee. named at the
Governors conference held last
June in Atlantic City. N. j.,
listed nearly 80 specific recon-
mendations. 1t said, however,
that more important is that each
State make the fullest use of
available safety knowledge and
AdCAiltlCs.
Said the nine-member COM
This report outlines a bal
anced. constructive and dynamic
program of highway safety
and yet there is little i'm it that
is new In the main. we know
how to prevent accidents and.
in the main, we know how to
insure highway safety. The ques-
ton is. can we and will we put
to the fullest use. the knowledge
and facilities that we have?"
The committee expressed con-
fidence that with each State do
ing its part. and with the CO.
operation of a fully informed
and organized public, great
strides can be taken during 1857
toward the solution of this most
important and tragic problem.
