Speeding Caused 40a0
Of Highway Deaths
(continued from page onel

CONTINUED from page one)
Delaware roadss said J. James
Ashton, manager of the council.
There were 81 highway deaths in
1860. Thirty-five of them were at
tributed primarily to speed and
19 TO drinking.
Eight of the deaths were the re-
suit of jay walking or other i'm
proper walking or streets or high
ways, and another eight were pri-
marily due TO failure TO yield the
right of way. In four cases fatal
accidents resulted when drivers
fell asleep, and in three the pro-
mary cause was inattention. Fail
ure to see a hazard caused three
other deaths, and running of a
slippery road caused two deaths.
Other causes were cited for each
of the other five fatalities. One
death resulted from riding a BIZ
cycle into the path of an autOmo-
bile One was due to backing on
10 a main highway Another was
caused by defective tires. An i'm
properly loaded vehicle was the
primary cause of one death. And
drivers being blinded by the
sun was the cause of another.
In each of the 81 cases-which
! involved less than 81 separate ac-
cidents-the Safety Council staff
examined the police reports on the
accidents and determined the pri-
mary cause A later analysis will
reveal other aspects of the fatal
accidents-in what hours of the
day and what day of the week
they were concentrated, and other
/ factors
The analysis of the previous
years fatal accidents was delayed
this year by the time it took to
determine whether one fatal acci-
dent occurred in Pennsylvania or
in Delaware 1t was finally found
to have been just inside the Del
aware line, and raised the total to

slaughter conviction of an Ala

on the exclusion of Negroes

The case involved Lewis Lloyd
Anderson. a minister, who was
sentenced to 10 years on a
charge of killing a pedestrian
in an automobile accident.
The Alabama Court of Ap-
peals, in upholding Anderson S
conviction. held that there was
no proof of any scheme to ex-
clude Negroes from jury serv-
ice. The Supreme Court has
previously held in several cases
that systematic exclusion can
be shown simply from the fact
that no Negroes serve on juries.
Anderson contended that no
Negro had ever served on a

repeatedly only one Negro on a

More Tv Ads
In Breaks Hit
BY the Associated Press

Chairman Newton N. MinoV
of the Federal Communication,
Commission today expressed
hope that the television net.
works plan for longer station
Identification breaks will moi
increase the number of locaI
spot commercials during the
breaks.
If this occurs, Mr.. MinoW
said. he would certainly want
FEC to do something about it
His comment was prompted
by the recent announcement o1
the American Broadcasting Co
that it plans, starting next fall
to increase the T'V station break
time from 80 to 40 seconds
The other networks have indi-
Gated they will do the same
thing.
Such breaks permit the affil-
lated station to identify itself
and air brief local or regional
ads, usually one or two to q
break.
Emphasizing that he was
speaking only for himself, and
not officially for the commits
sion, Mr.. Minow said:
II personally am not con-
cerned in an increase of 10
seconds in the length of the
station break. but I world be
concerned about the extended
time being used for three spot
commercials. and I would want
to bring this to the attention
of the commission"
The TV code of the National
Association of Broadcasters
prohibits so called triple
Spotting." The FEC itself has
no set rule on this matter at
this time, but frequently has
spoken out against over-com-
mercialization in broadcasting
generally.
Conceding that the commits
sion may not act as a censor,
Mr.. Ninow said it does have
authority to go into a So-called
"rule-making proceeding" which
could control the number of
commercials permissible on TV
station breaks.

The Supreme Court today re-
iected the claims of railway
labor unions for full job pro-
lection in the merger of the
Erie and Lackawanna Rail-
roads.
In an 8-to-1 decision the Su-

a special three-judge District
Court in Detroit that the
Transportation Act of 1910
does not require that all en-
ployes of merged railroads be
kept in an active employment

The Interstate Commerce

Erie-Lackawanna merger, had
specified that employees should
be granted compensatory pro-

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va,
