horsepower are registered with the
Wildlife Commission, and Hazel
said the Commission was ready to
help owners recover the numbered

MANY FORCES

(The Cecil wing, Elkton, Md.)
These years since the end of
World War II have brought US
many of the greatest moments in
the history Of free men.
Never has the longing for free
dom and independence stirred the
souls of so many men as in our
times.
Throughout the world - as cur
rently evidenced in Africa and Asia
particularly - people are seeking
their rightful freedom and self
re alizatio n from authoritarian
forces.
And the concept of public edu-
cation-a free school system-may
we'll prove to be the avenue of
communication and development
that will help peoples in other
parts of the world achieve their
basic freedom.
Education is not static force
or fixed process in the midst
of ever-present changes in social,
economic and political structures,
values and forces, education
changes also.
Outside influences are putting
tremendous pressures on teachers
and schools "to keep up with Rus.
STA" or "get ahead Of
them" or bring forth similar
themes inspired by the original
Sputnik surprises!
However, keeping pace or lead
ing the race is not solely a matter
of more science courses in the cur
riculum.
Well-trained teachers, greater
numbers of teachers, more schools,
more adequate facilities, and a
greater interest on the part of our
political and social leaders, par
ents and the children themselves,
are important factors that can col
lectively contribute to better edu-
cation.
What happens to American edu-
cation in the immediate future de-
ponds on how much people know
and learn about their schools and
how much the power of the peo-
pie is brought to its support.
This is the challenge to educa-
tional leadership in our times.

CONNECTICUT SETS PACE
IN SAFETY ON HIGHWAYS

christian Science Monitor)
How much force has a good eX'
ample? The highway safety exam
pie set by the State of Connecticut
should have a great deal.
The figures are impressive. Since
1885 this busy state has steadily
reduced its annual total Of traffic
fatalities until this now stands al
2:5 per 1OO,O00,O00 miles Of travel
the nations lowest.
Hope is high that reductions
will continue, and it is likely they
will. "We do not believe there is
any such thing as an irreducible
minimum" says the executive d.
rector of the Connecticut Safety
Commission.
Analysis of the Connecticut APP
proach shows that a program of
safety education founded on COM
mon sense and hope works bet
ter than the "fear campaigns" still
unfortunately prevalent.
Backed by firm, but polite, law
enforcement which takes care of
present offenders, the Connecti-
cut safety program actually begins
in the kindergarten. 1t continues
in high school with driver educa-
ton courses for those about to OBJ
tain licenses.
Additionally, the activities of all
state and local agencies concerned
with safety, including Connect
cuts extremely active private citi-
zen safety groups, are coordinated

GEORGE HAD A DIFFERENT
SORT OF A PROBLEM
(From Carolina Tele-
phone's Cross Talk)

When George Washington was
President he had a problem that he
wouldn't have today. He headed q
group of states and citizens who
were so independent they were
downright unruly. Under his lead.
ership they had thrown off an OPP
presive government and most OF
them were perfectly happy to tend
to their own affairs with no help
or interference from the new U. S
government.
Washington and several of his
successors had to work long and
hard to persuade those early
Americans to give up d few local
rights and powers in order to
strengthen the infant nation.
Many of today's descendants of
those rugged independents are will
ing enough to turn over local rights
and powers to the federal govern
ment-if it will take over their
local problems. They accept high
taxes as a matter of course. But
in exchange they seem to expect
that federal bureaucrats will some
how magically see that everyone
has a good job, good paw, good
home good roads, good education,
good heath and carefree old age.
Washington's problem was to get
the people to support the govern
ment. We doubt if it ever crossed
his mind that a day might come
when the people would expect the
government to support them.

DIRECTORY LISTS STATES
TRAVEL INDUSTRY LEADERS

More than 100 leaders of Nortf
Cardinals third largest industry
travel-are listed in the 1860 Com
mittee Directory just issued by the
Travel Council of North Carolina
The listing, including representa-
tives of major manufacturing in
dustries, public utilities, banks ano
other businesses not usually identi'
fled with the travel industry is in
dicative, said President Lynn Ms,
bet, of how completely the travel
industry is now "everybody's bust,
ness.
More than 10000 businesses
that serve travel primarily are
represented on the Council through
the membership of their trade as,
sociations or by individuals. These
include the hotel, motel and res
taurant associations.
The first comprehensive survey
of the travel industry in North
Carolina was sponsored by the
Council last year, and it produced
the eye-opening total of $500 mil
lion dollars expenditures by tray
elers during 1858. Combined with
the business also done with home
folks, the survey showed that the
total volume of business of the
travel-selving industry was 1923
millions. This placed it in dollar
volume only after the textile and
tobacco industries, which in North
Carolina lead the entire nation.
A new survey is now being COM
pleted by the Council and will be
made public at its autumn mem
bership meeting in Southern Pines,
October 1924.
The Travel Council, chartered by
the State of North Carolina as a
non-stock, non-profit corporation
was organized in 1855 by a COM
mittee appointed by Governor
Luther H. Hodges. First president
was Fred Linton of the Winston
Salem Chamber of Commerce.
Others who have headed the or
ganization are E. L. Washburn
Rocky Mount; Volt Gilmore. South
ern Pines; Glenn Tucker, Carolina
Beach; and Lynn Nisbet. Raleigh.

10 RIM REMINDER OF
THINGS TO CONE ON
in. CAROLINA ROADS

Who will die in traffic before
the end Of the year?
Soberly and seriously-it could
be you! Or member of your fami-
ly, a close relative, a friend, a
stranger. At the moment, no one
knows.
But at least 300 will die in the
next three months, analysts Of the
Motor Vehicles Department pre-
dict. If that sounds grisly remem-
Der it's only reflection of what's
already happened.
Death on Tar Heel highways
exercises its prerogative of being
erratic-but the toll shapes up to
about 90-95 fatalities q month. Last
year 1893 died.
So far this year more than $50
have been cut down. Short of q
miracle, traffic will have smashed
more than 1000 victims before
New Years Day.
In the Motor Vehicles Building,
charts labeled deaths, injuries, ac-
cident, etc., all shows plus signs.
With the killer months November
and December) still ahead, the traf-
flee death picture becomes alarm
ingly realistic. In November. 1859,
there were lis killed. In Deem
Der, 124. Experts warn that the
last quarter of any year is strange
| ly (but additionally dangerous
for drivers and walkers.
Thanksgiving, Christmas and
New Years holiday periods have
a part in the upsurge. But holiday
travel and festivities aren't a re-
liable index. Veteran safety Of
ficials can recall similar periods
over the years when the roads were
practically death free.
Bad weather can't always be
blamed, either. In fact, most of the
fatal accidents through the year
occur on dry, straight roads under
clear, sunny skies.
Road defects? Faulty vehicles?
No in both cases. Such hazards
made up less than tenth of all
the death dealing mash-ups last
year.
The death and injury toll is no
mystery at all to Major Charles
A. Speed, the highway patrols
ace traffic troubleshooter.
"It's still the driver" the ma
jor said. "When years of expert
ence consistently show that three
quarters of the drivers involved in
fatal smash-ups We're violating q
traffic law, then something is
wrong.
"The critical problem from now
to the end Of the year is one of
persuasion; to convince drivers
that the death penalty is pretty
severe price to pay for disobey-
ing traffic rules.
"Such carelessness literally puts
drivers in a partnership with death
"a victim or executioner," he
said.

by the safety commission.
Connecticut's officials and lead
ing citizens have recognized that
in any state it is people, individual
drivers and pedestrians, who are
ultimately responsible for any
good road safety example which
may be set.
Its pacemaking in safety can
have benefits far beyond Connect
cuts borders.
