Whether you are driving in
city traffic, on country roads, or
cruising along one of the safest
superhighways, be careful to
drive at a speed which allows
you to control your car COM
pletely at all times.
Many drivers put far too
much reliance on their brakes to
keep them out of trouble, no
matter how fast they drive"
Colonel Hugh H. Waggoner, su-
perintendent of the Missouri
Highway Patrol told me re-
Gently.
Remember, the faster you
drive, the slower you stop. So
when you drive at speed-allow
yourself plenty of room in which
to maneuver and STOP" Wag-
goner said.
Granting an average reaction
time on the part of the driver,
here is what you must expect
before you stop:
At 80 miles per hour, it'll take
70 feet to come to a complete
stop. At 40 MPH it will take
you 125 feet.
At so MPH it'll be 1873 feet
At 60 MPH-272 feet
At 10 MPH-3Sl feet.
I know that I'm not the best
Judge of distances, and suspect
that you may misjudge once in
a while too. So, always give
yourself more room than you
think you need. That extra dis
lance may mean safety.

United For Douglas Bill

The so civic, church, labor, pro-
fessional and fraternal organiza-
tons composing the Leadership
Conference are united and deter
mined to see that the Douglas bill
becomes law" he said.
wilkins agreed that the Douglas
bill recognizes the necessity of
supporting affirmatively the 1854
ruling of the Supreme Court. His
bill authorizes the Department of
Justice, on it's own initiative, to
seek preventive relief to protect
the constitutional rights of citizens
in all civil rights situations, not
merely in voting cases.
Virginia An Example
wilkins blasted the Attorney
Generals testimony before a House
Committee that the recent deveI-
opments in Virginia have shown
that no such authority is needed
for the Department of Justice.
THE stage would never have
been set in Virginia for resolving
the issues which deemed massive
resistance If there had not been
litigation to make this possible
declared the NAACP executive.
He disagreed with Atty. Gen.
Rogers that there were enough
laws under which the Federal gov
eminent could proceed, and that
any more laws empowering initia-
tive action on the part of the gov
eminent might aggravate the sit
uation.
Remember It's DUTY
The NAACP will not shirk its
duty in seeking redress for those
who are denied their civil rights 1"
emphasized Wilkins, and the Fed
eral government can ill afford to
be neutral in this struggle for
equal rights and constitutional Iib-
critics."
Wilkins pointed out that II is
not fair, not decent and not Amer
lean for parents who seek inteq-
rated education for their children
in accordance with the law should
find arrayed against them the
massed powers Of the states in
Guiding the treasures composed in
part Of their own tax money.
Absurd Situation
1t is absurd in such a situation
to maintain that the government
OF the United States should re-
main an inactive observer while
courts are defied, human rights
trampled, and the protagonists of
simple justice under the law are
mangled in a grossly one-sided
struggle" concluded wilkins He
therefore, urged the Senate COM
mittee to enact the Douglas civil
rights bill.

last Wednesday, that it would be
better to have no civil rights bill
at all than to have the so-called

civil rights advances that have been
won as a result of court action.

For Park Misuse

Mrs. Anne Archbold yester-

to prohibit construction of q

The actions filed by Mrs

miles.
The court action quickly fol-

Lying a unique study of aging
which is expected to overthrow
many previously held miscon-

thoughts of the elderly.
For the first time, a group OF
both extremely healthy and a
group of normal" persons over

angles - psychological, physi-
cal and sociological. Each lived
at the National Institutes of
Health for at least two weeks
and went through up to 700
tests and observations.
These preliminary results
have startled some of the re-
SearcherS:
When a person reaches 65
and over he is not entering a
quiescent period. His life is a
constant battle for adjustment
often under negative preSSures
There is a pile up of pressureS
loss of work, children leaving

early adulthood when a person

The study began in the summer

analyzing the results.
They are excited about some
things. They hope, when their

programs for the aged may be
based on fact and not OH fic-

The group has noted a num-
Der of ideas which have been
falsely attributed to the aged:
l. The idea that the blood
flow to the brain goes down
because of age.
2. That elderly persons be-
come depressed because of age.
3. That their intellectual
capacity dims because of age.
These are not true, say the

them by Montgomery welfare
workers.
When the infant first was
placed with the Silver Spring
couple, Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd R.
Crump of 12108 Anterior drive,
welfare workers tagged the
baby as UNACCEPTABLE because
he was believed to be slightly
retarded.
But when he was about IA
months old, he had shown
such improvement under their
care, that he was then consid-
cred suitable for adoption.
The Crumps had sought per-
mission earlier from welfare
authorities to adopt the boy
but were told they could not.
Instead the child was turned
over to a Wicomico County
couple, who now have him.
Petitions were filed in Wi
comico County Circuit Court
by both couples for permanent
custody of the boy. After con-
sidering advice of welfare wit
nesses at a closed hearing, the
court ruled against the Silver
Spring couple.

Should a couple who wish tt
adopt a child be denied the
right to do so by welfare au-
thoritieS because they might be
too intelligent for the child in
volved?
This question is at issue in an
emotion packed court fight in
volving a Silver Spring couple
A three-judge Maryland
court, though it ruled against
the couple, has called Mont
gomery County welfare au-
thorities "heartless" in the way
they handled the case.
Lawyers soon will argue the
adoption case in Maryland's
Court Of Appeals-the State S
highest court-where the couple
have carried their fight in an
attempt to gain permanent
custody of a two-year-old boy.
The adoption dispute will be
the first case heard when the
court reconvenes in September
Attorneys for the couple will
file a brief outlining their argu-
mentS this week.
The case arose shortly before
last Christmas when the then
18-month-old boy, who had
been cared for by the couple as
