why doesn't somebody do
something about it?
Traffic engineers, police and
citizens interested in traffic
safety agree the basic cause Of
Iunderpass accidents is human
carelesSness and callousness.
Deputy Police Chief William
j. Liverman said most of the
accidents at the Northeast un-
derpass result from drunken
drivers. drivers falling asleep
at the wheel and motorists who
are reckless or just aren't look
ing where they are going.
But he agrees with District
Vehicles and Traffic Director
George England that steel
posts in the middle of the un-
derpasses provide a natural OBJ
stacle which is hazardous to be-
Il gin with. If they weren't there,
the careless driver wouldn't
have anything to hit.
Rejecting Paint Tried
What can be done about it?
How about replacing the un-
derpasses, removing the COL
umns? Too costly. the highway
engineers say. They haven't
the money, and it's doubtful
they could get it, they add.
Ernest Brett. vice chairman
Iof the Citizens Traffic Board
here and local manager of the
Keystone Auto Club said that,
Ito his knowledge there's been
very little discussion of the
problem at all here.
However, Frank Twiss. the
Districts deputy director Of
highways for traffic engineer
ing, said his department is do
ing some work on the problem.
At the Rhode Island avenuy
underpaSs. for example, the
incopSpicuous dangerous con-
crete abutment has been par
TALLY painted-at a cost of $40
a quart-with a new rejecting
paint.
Mr.. Twiss comedies this isn't
enough. He feels the whole
abutment-all 30 feet of it
should be painted. And he in
tends to provide a reflective
paint for the steel columns at
the entrances of this and other
underpaSses along the tracks,
Lighting Suggested
Perhaps even whitewash for
the interior would help" Mr..
TWiSS said.
Mr.. Brett said this would be
all to the good, adding that
additional lighting is also nec-
essary, particularly at night.
Whatever steps are taken to
provide a safer drive through
the underpasses, Mr.. Twiss
promises they'll be accom-
plished before the long winter
nights set in.
This, Mr.. Brett feels, will
provide protection for the aver
age motorist. the driver who is
not reckless or drunk. But
there's no magic formula to
protect the laW-breaking driver
from himself. Unless the steel
columns and their accompany
ing concrete abutments are
removed, the lawbreaker and
the careless will go right on
hitting them. unless they hit
something else first, Mr.. Brett
feels.

Censure byCub

PARIS, Nov. 10 (AP)-The
UNESCO general conference
voted down today a Cuban Gen.
sure proposal aimed at the
United States.
While not naming the United
States directly, the Cuban dele
CATION proposed putting on the
agenda a resolution that Cen
sure be passed for any state
that attempts to intervene in
any other states" for reasons
arising out of economic, cul-
tural or social differences"
A general committee meeting
earlier voted against the pro-
posal, recommending to the
plenary session that it not go
on the agenda.
The vote was on whether to
accept or reject that recon-
mendation. The vote was SO to
IL for adoption Of the COM
mittee recommendation, with
IL abstentions.
The vote climaxed a stormy
plenary session in which the
Communist bloc nations vigor-
ously supported the Cuban
measure.
But United States Delegate
Charles Thayer successfully
argued that IF this item is put
on the agenda our worst fears
will be realized and the cold
war will be brought into

OTTAWA, Ill. Nov. 10 (AP)
- Chester o. Weger's lawyer
says the admitted slayer of
three women in Starved Rock
State Park told him today that
he is not the killer.
Attorney Joseph Carr said the
21-year-old defendant, Weger,
father of two, told him in a Jail

was false-that it was forced
from him under long hours of
continuous interrogation.
I'm not guilty of those
murders" the attorney quoted
Weger. 81 wasn't even there.
I don't know anything about
them"
Mr.. Carr said Weger also
denied two other crimes, with
which he has been charged, both
of which occurred in Mathies-

from Starved Rock, in July of
1859.
These include robbery and rape.
