"Traffic Film
Can Be More
Slick Than Ice

Rain plays many tricks on driv-
ers, but its most dangerous one is
still unknown to most.
On every heavily travelled street
and highway, there's a coating of
greasy, oily residue deposited by
thousands of passing cars. Called

bineS with rain water to form a
soapy, slippery substance that is
as slick as ice-and even more
dangerous.
Motorists expect difficult driv-
ing when snow and ice is on the
ground, so they avoid it by driv-
ing extra cautiously. But traffic
film is relatively unknown, so
drivers are involved in skids and
slides without warning when it
rains.
In heavily trafficked cities like
New York, the automobile acct
dent rate nearly doubles on rainy
days. And most of these accidents
can be attributed to traffic film
The same rain that causes traffic

World War II veterans have two

reminded veterans today. The
deadline is July Is, 1860.
Once application is made, an
additional year will be allowed to
process the loan, Mr.. Whittier add
ed. Thus the loan can be actually
closed as late as July Is, 1861.
Under the present law, World
War II veteran participation in

mentioned above.
Mr.. Whittier stressed that ME

plications.

served during the Korean-conflict
period are considered to be- Ko-

We've been hearing a lot in
recent years about the increasing
number of two-car families in
this country. Now comes a predic-
ton that the day is coming when
the second home will be as COM
mon as the second car. In fact,
one builder of leisure homes jubil-
antly states that the second home
idea is 'the hottest thing since

estimate that $4,000 leisure homes
were built in 1859 alone-and the
number put up annually in the
present decade is expected to soar
far above that figure.
Chief factors behind the trend
rising family income, longer vaca-
tons, shorter work weeks.

Accused Slayer
Cleared on Plea
Of Self Defense

A man was cleared today OF
a Second-degree murder charge
through a judgment of acquittal
by District Court Judge Henry
A. Schweinhaut.
Judge Schweinhaut ruled
that the defendant, Jake
Coates, %, had acted in self
defense in the fatal shotgun
shooting last September OF
Leroy McClendon, 81, a roomer
in Mr.. Coates home in the 400
block of r street NV.
The judgment of acquittal
was handed down on a motion
by defense attorneys Joseph
Sitnick and Samuel Levine. The
case had gone on trial before
a jury Monday.
Mr.. Coates testified that Mr..
McClendon had chased him
with a knife shortly before the
shooting. Mr.. Coates said he
fired when Mr.. McClendon put
his hand in a pocket and ad-
vanced toward him. An open
knife later was found in Mr..
McClendon's pocket.
The shooting took place in
the living room of the home.
Mr.. Coates testified that an
argument had started after Mr..
McClendon had used profane
language before guests.

The two-thirds vote necessary

Mr.. Herter acknowledged. But
he expressed hope it could be
obtained.
The World Court has heard
only 13 cases since it was es-
tabliShed in 1947, Mr.. Herter
testified, principally because of
the inhibiting American res
ervation, which was subse-
quently copied by several other

No Soviet-bloc nation rec
ognizes the jurisdiction of the
World Court in disputes to

If the Senate adopts the re-
