Montununs Urged To Support
State Traffic Safety Council

Montana motorists this week were
urged to join the Montana Traffic
Safety Council and thus directly as
sist in the councils efforts to reduce
highway accidents.
The appeal for added membership
for the private safety group was
made by Kelly Pugh, state traffic
council director.
Primary purpose of MISC, Pugh
states, is to keep "Montanans alive
and free from traffic injuries. The
council, in carrying on it's work re-
lies heavily on educating drivers to
become more safety-conscious. One
phase of the work is the putting on
of traffic safety programs by Di-
rector Pugh. These programs are
available to any Montana group, free
of charge, and cover automobile safe
ty, pedestrians, bicycle safety, etc.
That progress has been made in
drivers more careful is indi-
Gated, according to Pugh, by the SUBJ
stantial drop in highway fatalities in
1857 as compared with the preceding
year. In 1857 there were 210 deaths
attributable to highway accidents
decrease of almost fifty from the
previous year. Montana ranked first
in traffic accident reduction, percent
age wise among the states, in 1857.

UN Scientists
Agree Radiation
Dangerous

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-(CNS)
United Nations scientists say nu-
clear radiation endangers unborn gen.
erations and is communicating the
world
In report to be published July 1,
the worlds top scientists agree on
almost everything except whether
UN's general assembly should ask the
atomic powers to stop nuclear tests.
They'll meet again June to decide
what to recommend.
The scientists studied more than
two years, discussed 180 reports from
80 governments and six international
agencies. They represent Is nations.
Attempts to evaluate radiation eff
fects "can produce only tentative esti-
mates with wide margins of uncer-
tainty,' they warn.
Yet exposure of the sex glands
to even the smallest doses of ioniz-
ing radiations can give rise to mu-
tant genes which are consid-
cred to be, in general, harmful to
the human race. 1t is important
that undue exposure to such radia-
ton is minimized."
These mutations may affect Gin
telligence or life-span". The UN scien-
lists say nuclear tests already have
caused 5000 to 10000 "major ge-
netic defects" a year. If tests con-
tinue after 1858, they also estimate
5000 to 10000 cases of bone tumor
and 1000 to 10000 cases of leukemia
a year.
The official U. S. position-as
stated by Atomic Energy Commission
is to play down dangers involved
in nuclear testing. Many U. S. scien-
lists have refused to go along with
this, however

delegation, won't be around when the

primary were Reps. Mervin ]. Demp-

day afternoon, was only "a votes

Credit for defeating Dempsey

James T. Mari, president of the
National Hells Canyon Association,
blamed the defeat of the Hells Can
yon Bill Monday on the "sellout" of
the Republican party in the Pacific
Northwest to the private power COM
panies.
GAS long as Brownlee Dam remains
in the Snake River,' said Mari, ''it
will be monument to the selfishness
and greed of the Idaho Power Com
pany. Just ten years ago, Vanport
City (adjacent to Portland) was
wiped out by major flood on the
Columbia. Since then, we haven't de-
veloped any flood control storage to
prevent similar tragedies in the fu-
ture. That tragedy at Vanport has
now been compounded by the loss
of the Hells Canyon BILL
""The Eisenhower Administration
and the Republican party are equally
with the Idaho Power
Company for this criminal loss of
nearly four million acre-feet of flood
contfol storage at Hells canyon. NoC
one Republican on the House In
terror Committee voted for the bill,
despite our best efforts. This will be
to the everlasting shame of the Re-
publican party in the Pacific North
west, whose representatives sold
themselves out to the private utility
"Jack Westland, Washington Re-
publican on the House Interior Com
nittee, can be held personally respon-
,ible for the outcome of this vote.
The same will hold true for all other
Republican congressman from the
Northwest. If any one of them had
aiken issue with the private utilities
and with the Administration, high
