have had our differences of

battle with thee physiological
concepts of perversions of the
Holy Scriptures. Today there is
a total movement to replace or

u KILLED THIS YEAR
Reckessness Blamed for Route Traffic Toll
II KILLED THIS YEAR

Disdain Of the most elemen-
tary driving rules is converting
a short strip of Route into
Virginia's most deadly roadway.
Already this year, II people
have died as a result Of crashes
on the 12-mile section of the
highway that traverses Prince
william County south of WASH
ington.
Another 113 have been in
jured in 1872 wrecks. And the
most perilous month, December,
still waits to exact its toll.
Analysing the most recent
accidents, which have killed
nine travellers in the last two
months, State police identify
fragrant recklessness as the pri-
mary cause Of the mounting
slaughter.
Tragically. they say, at least
five of the recent victims, in
GLIDING a mother and father.
were in cars which were being
faultlesSly driven.
They helplessly died when
oncoming vehicles sped across
the center of the four-lane
highway and smashed head-on
into them.
Blood tests revealed that at
least two drivers responsible
for the deaths Of others and
themselves were highly intoxi-
Gated.
Asked why recklesSness and
its bloody results are so ramp
ant in this particular stretch
of Route l, Sergt. T. A. S.
Moody. who commands the
troopers patrolling it, makes
these comments.
The strip serves as a sort of
funnel, receiving traffic stream
ing southwark both from both
Route l and Shirley highway.

health officials were the same
as those voiced last week by
District Health Director Daniel
L. Finucane.
DR.. Finucane told The Star
his group had no means to
check steadily increasing radio
activity in the District.
A budget request to hire a
physicist to keep check of radio
activity is included in his de-
lpartment'S budget now being
considered by District officials,
he said.
Sporadic checks taken by the
District Health Department
showed that much X-ray equip
ment was coming into WASH
ington and that no protective
provisions against radioactive
ity were being taken by hos
pitfalls.
Regulations to keep track
of the numbers of the ma
chimes entering the District
and to set up storage require
ments have been drawn up and
are now being considered by
the D. c. Medical and Dental
societies, he reported.
Maryland State health Off
Gals are hoping they will be
authorized by next years
Maryland Assembly to draft
and enforce radiation control
laws patterned after those now
existing in SO States. The Leg
islative Council last week voted
to sponsor such legislation.
In the meantime, DR.. Rein
dollar said his Office will con-
tinue checking for radioactive
hazards under its authority to
protect workers in industry
Radioactive material is used
by about 1000 industries Of
which many already have beer
checked, the doctor said.

WARSAW, Va, Aug. 8 (AP)
Walter B. Fidler probably
will be the House of Delegates
most amphibious member.
Mr.. Fidler, the Democratic
nominee from Richmond, West
moreland Lancaster and North
cumberland Counties, is an at
torney and an oyster shucker
by profession. But he spends
his spare time fishing and
swimming.
He was born in 1923 at the
Rappahannock riverside vii
lage of Sharps in Richmond
County. Since then he's left
town only long enough to at
tend college and to serve in
World War II as the command
ing officer of an Let in the
Pacific.
He received degrees from
Randolph Macon College and
the University of Richmond
Law School. And in 1949 he
and Charles P. Ryland formed
a law partnership in Warsaw
With his father and brother,
Mr.. Fidler is engaged in the
oyster shucking business on
Morattico Greek at Simonson.
He is counsel for the Kappa
hammock River Oyster Associa-
ton and was a leader in OBJ
tanning Federal loan aid for
area oyster planters whose beds
were damaged by hurricanes
several years ago.
While Mr.. Fidler would be
a legislative newcomer in the
1860 General Assembly session,
he's no stranger to the State
Capitol. He served as a page
in the Senate in 1898, 1910 and
1912. He's a brother-in-law of
Delegate A. L. Philpott of
Henry County.

months for about $1,000. They
will be placed in hospitals, doc
tors offices, commercial firms
and industrial plants, accord
Ing to DR.. Murray Grant,
county health officer.
Readings at 24-hour inter-
walls or longer, will be inter-
preted by Ian Burgess, the de-
partment's chief sanitary en-
gineer, who has been trained
in radioactive work by the
United States Public Health
Service.
DR.. Grant emphasized he
knows of no present hazards
traceable to radiation in air,
water or buildings.
But in view OF the increas-
Ing use of radiation, 1 feel we
should take a look at the mat
ter, keep our head and set our
sights on a long-range pro-
gram" he said.
Ordinances Considered
Still in the planning stage,
the program first calls for a
survey to determine the pres
ence of radioactive and X-ray
material in use in the 486-
square mile county.
A check also will be made of
all new material entering
Prince Georges.
"Once we locate and keep
track of the material, we can
check to see the setups are
properly screened with lead,
possess filters. and are coned so
as not to scatter rays" DR..
Grant said.
He said he later may ask
the county commissioners for
ordinances to back up the pro-
gram.
The radiation detecting de-
vices will vary from a hand
sized film badge, costing about
So, to an 18-inch cylindrical de-
vice priced at around $500.
Used in Baltimore
Radioactive testing of air,
food, milk. and water will be
left to the Federal and State
health offices.
Detecting devices now are
used in Baltimore city, accord
ing to DR.. William F. Reindol-
lar, director of Occupational
Health for the State Health
Department. He said he knows
of no other similar operation in
Maryland, although some coun-
ty health officials have talked
Of working in the field jointly
with their Civil Defense units.
In Montgomery County,
sanitarianS have checked RADIO
active equipment in hospitals
and doctors Offices.
A few minor faults were dis
covered and quickly corrected
DR.. William j. Peoples, County
Health officer, reported,
His department has no de-
tecting instruments. The State
equipment, however, is used in
periodic tests of the Potomac
River and the two reservoirs OF
the Washington Suburban San
itary Commission which supply
water for 100000 persons in the
two counties. No appreciable
radiation has been found.
Prince Georges and Mont
gomery Civil Defense spokes-
men say they have neither the
money for instruments mol
personnel trained to use them.

Farther to the south, the traf-
f1c dispenses somewhat. But
during each "a hours. the strip
is crowded with an average Of
$4,000 cars.
Especially in the Woodbridge
area, it is lined with service
stations, trailer parks, shopping
centers and housing develop
mentS. Thus, the frequency Of
motorists stopping and trying
one of the most dangerous of
all maneuvers, a left turn across
a high-speed thoroughfare, is
high.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-08-09

Tourists, unfamiliar with the
highway, often travel it.
Therefore, drivers are more
subject to penalties for errors
in judgement along Route / in
Prince William than elsewhere.
But Sergt. Moody stresses
that these conditions do not
fully explain the number Of
accidents.
