Letters
On Youth CitY

II ID Will d great ued1 VI pleas
ure that thank you for the
fine coverage that was made of
the First Annual Youth City
Program in your recent edi-
lions. Such excellent comment
and coverage is extremely bene-
fetal in promoting the contin-
uation of this idea.
The students, the monitors of
the several Institutional phases
of the agenda, the faculty repre-
sentatives on the committee, and
the city staff spent a consider
able amount of their own time
in making this Youth City a
real success. 1 know it is ap-
preciated by all of them for hav-
ing had the recognition which
your publication has given them.
AS you know, in publishing your
newspaper, that there are count
less unknown hours behind
every worthwhile effort. So it
is with this one. / commend the
monitors of the several sessions,
Mr.. MARYLAND, Mr.. Dave Ca
hoon, Mr.. Milton Million, Mr..
Robert Boyd, Mr.. John Gray,
Mr.. Robert Plavnick, Mr.. Alger
Y. Barbee, Mr.. Hugh H. Hassell,
Chief James o. Gartner, and Mr..
Melbourne E. Ward. Then all
those behind the scene operators
who l do not know should be
collectively recognized.
The Towering of this program
which you have so extensively
described in your issue of April
10, 1858, will spread the seeds
of good citizenship wherever
your newspaper is read.
Robert T. Bard,
Commander and Chairman
Youth City Committee
Thankful Reminder
May 1 ask for some space in
your letter column to thank
Eula w. Luhn for her letter con-
corning the Upper Montgomery
County Volunteer Fire Depart
ment?
Mrs. Luhn is a member of the
women's auxiliary and all mem
bers of her family are active
workers. The SHOWS of last
month made us think of many
things.
If you sat in the middle of
farm and your fuel tank was
empty late at night, or your new
water pump refused to work, or
the pipe line to your oil burner
was frozen, and after an anxious
phone call you soon had a serv-
ice truck come in to help set
things right, it is fine to know
that those boys were among the
very ones who came when the
dairy burned with the wind
blowing towards the barn! That
makes you think.
But when you attend the an
nual meeting and hear the re-
ports of the men and women, it
is a real inspiration, and makes
you glad to have been a member
all through the years.
l was brought up in a house in
Frederick which carried the
clasped hands of the fire mark
or badge of the Baltimore Equit-
able Society incorporated April
10, 1794) and l quote from one
of their advertisements: Upon
an alarm being given, the fire
fighting company repaired to
the seat of the fire and if the
badge of the insurance company
appeared on the building they
used their best efforts to subdue
the flames. If, however, no
badge appeared, they might re-
fuse to take action"
The point wish to make is,
how thankful we should be for
the spirit of the volunteer fire.
men. Their value to a commu-
nifty cannot be measured.

On Train-Car
Accidents

Most people probably assume
the train usually hits the a IL
highway-railroad crossing accid'
dents.
Not necessarily so. "a third o.
the time" says the National Safe
ty Council, "it's just the reverse
the car strikes the train"
The Council says the car does
the hitting in half the nighttime
accidents and in about / out OF
S daytime car-train accidents
About 1900 persons are killed
annually in grade crossing motor
vehicle accidents.
The reasons? Misjudged speed,
starting up too soon after a train
has passed without checking for
trains from the opposite direc-
ton, ignored warning signals,
drinking and driving, speeding,
and familiarity with frequently
used crossings, according to the
Council. Motorists can prevent
car-train accidents, it says, if
they will:
l. Approach highway-rail inter
sections with their vehicle IN
der complete control, heed the
round advance warning sign
and be prepared to stop if ne
cessary.
2. Use extra precaution if they
can't see far down the tracks.
Be sure the way is clear be-
fore crossing the tracks.
8. Obey traffic rules, and caution
others to do the same.
4. Observe crossing signs, signals
and markings.
Preventing highway-rail traffic
accidents is. in the opinion Of
Jack c. Trimble, secretary Of the
Councils Highway Railroad
Crossing Committee, the job of
traffic officials, the railroads and
the public"
But it isn't a fifty-fifty propo-
sition," he says. The driver must
bear the biggest burden. He can
stop quicker or swerve to avoid
an accident, while a train can't.
His is the more maneuverable We
hicle.
Its a needless tragedy for mo-
florists to run into the side of or
in front of trains.
1T is almost invariably the mo-
torist's fault. 1t is his response
to be alert for signs, to
his speed, and to stop if
necessary"

EDITORIALLY
COOPERATION

The Sidney Herald urges all
citizens of Sidney TO adopt ar
intelligent plan of community CO.
operation. This does not involve
the careless boosting that ig-
more facts or the degenerating
pessimism that depreciates every
thing. It merely requires that the
citizens of Sidney should realize
that the combined efforts of all
neighbors and friends will def
nitely improve u town.
One of the necessities is a
sound business structure upon
which TO rest other ornaments.
The trade-at-home policy, as Of
ten outlined in this newspaper, is
a cardinal principle of commu-
nifty loyalty. 1t applies to sellers
as well as to buyers, and involves
the Use Of money for improving
Sidney by spending it within
municipal limits.

The adobe shack was typical OF
the dozens of architectural abor-
tons that dotted the landscape.
Its brownish-gray sun-baked ex-
terror blended perfectly with the
surrounding sagebrush and sand.
A couple hastily-constructed out
houses leaned leeward in the
background. In front of the shack
was an old-style gas pump with
a greasy web hose.
The shack looked utterly for
lorn and unoccupied. The lower
halves of the front windows were
d~irt-streaked; little drifts of sand
had piled up next to the win
dow sash. The front door was
latch-operated, and squeaked
open to reveal a dimly-lit, foul
smelling interior.

of it was Uttered with empty

trays, a scattering of burned

of the desk supported an old
cash register.
Seated on a backless chair be-
tween the desk and the soft
drinks dispenser was an elderly
lady. Her gray hair tumbled
down over her ears and neck.

George F. KEENAN,, considered
by many to be the foremost
American authority on Soviet af-
fairs, writes: "Krushchev has now
offended and estranged from the
central political process, one by
one, the intelligentsia, the indus
trial managers and a portion OF
the officers corps of the armed
services. He has now achieved the
pinnacle Of power which he ap-
parently wanted, but suspect that
he is rather isolated UP there, and
