For Cor Sofety
WOMEN PUSH BELTS
BY JOY MILLER
AP WOmen's Editor


Impressive numbers of the coun-
try's unsalaried chauffeurs, who
drive husbands to work and chill
dren to school, are in the midst
of safety campaign for car-seal
belts.
women invariably get what they
want, it should be only matter
of time before belt fastening mo-
tions become as automatic in auto
as in airplane.
The General Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs launched it's crusade
last April. The goal: "One million
and one in 1861" With a member
ship of 5h million persuasive wo-
men, the federation should be able
to put over its campaign with ease.
Why seat belts?
Mrs. e. Lucille DOdd of the
Automotive Safety Foundation, and
chairman of the campaign, says
IAN estimated 5000 lives would
have been saved last year if seat
belts had been used. And traffic
accident injuries are reduced by
more than third through their
USE"
About two million cars on the
road now have belts-and the 1862
cars will be equipped with floor
attachments for front-seat belts
But the crusade urges belts for
every person, and at least million
more this year.
No particular brand of seat belt
has received endorsement, but Mrs
DOdd advises you buy belts with
sac or GSA labels to make sure
they won't break open under pres
sure. The labels indicate the belts
meet standards set either by the
Society of Automotive Engineers
(SAE) or the General Service Ad-
ministration (GSA). The main diff
ference between the two is that
one requires the belt withstand
forces up to 1000 pounds, and the
other 5000.
Its natural for women to go
bargain-hunting, comedies Mrs.
Dodd, "but an inferior seat belt
that saves money may not save
lives"
The real value of seat belts, she
explains, is that they help keep
passengers from being thrown out
of car. And the chances of being
killed are five times greater when
you're elected. And the driver can
keep better control if he's held in
place.
"Some people say they use belts
only on long trips. Actually, three
out of four traffic deaths occur
within 25 miles of home. And half
of them occur at speeds of less
than 40 m.p.h."
Mrs. Dodd, a practicing grand
mother, has another selling point
without statistics: "Seat belts are
great for restraining youngsters in
the back seat who are beating on
your neck as you drive, or for
keeping the ones in the front seat
from going out the windshield
when you stop suddenly"

And remove it as soon as possible

Check tree lights carefully for
frayed wires, loose connections and
broken sockets.
Keep candles away from the tree
and use extreme care in smoking

you leave the house

As The Holidays
Approach

Christianity, as concept of liv-
ing in terms of the individual, is
always brought home with new
force as the year draws to a close.
Nowhere, but in a country of
truly free men, can this concept
manifest itself to the fullest. In
nations where the state has grad
ually assumed more and more re-
sponsibility for the welfare of the
individual, the spirit of christian
ity becomes less and less signifi-
cant AS the holidays approach,
we should ponder the deeper
meaning of such activities as the
Christmas Seal Campaign, h
tinkling bells of the Salvation Ar
my, and the countless local en-
deavors to help the less fortunate
All of these are voluntary and rep
resent the christian impulse to-
ward kindness, self-reliance, and
generally more civilized state of
being.
For example, the seaman of the
United States, as we'll as all other
nations-including those from
iron curtain and dictatorship-rid
den countries may readily find evil
dence of christian charity and good
will at the Seaman's Church Insti-
tute-an organization established
over 100 years ago to serve both
spiritual and material needs of
men who go down to the sea in
ships. What the U.S.O. is to the
armed forces, what the Salvation
Army is to strangers in distress,
what the college campus is to stu
dents-all this and more the Sea-
mans Church Institute is to sail
ors of all natiOnalities.
Agencies of h e Seaman'S
Church Institute may be found in
New York, Philadelphia and Los
Angeles-three of the nations ma
jor seaports. Men from every state

by boys is not necessarily an
indication of being over
whelmed by the girls appeal.
Instead, they often are
afraid of being considered
drips if they don't make
passes.
All boys and girls want
attention and admiration
from their dating partners.
The trouble usually starts
when one or the other mis-
interpretS this universally
human desire as an invita-
ton to immoral behavior.
But after a reasonable
amount of dating experience
most youngsters know how
to handle this kind of Situa-
ton.
l ChlnK the best solution
is to consider first a date as
a persona person to talk
with, laugh with, and enjoy.
Boy-girl relationships which
depend too much on physical
attraction as the main rea-
son for dating seldom last
very long.

Dear Mrs. Kicker:
/ hope you won't mis-
understand me because l
am all for girls, but some
Of the letters they write to
you sure grippe me. They
complain about boys
morals, but never mention
that when a boy tries a
little testing" as you call
1t, it is often the girls own
fault.
/ have never been fresh
with a girl against her
wishes. But when a girl
sits close to a boy, fIirts
with him, dresses to show
off her figure, what's a
boy supposed to do, chew
his nails or something?
When girls go all out for
sex appeal how can they
blame a boy who reacts?
Isn't that what they want?
I'm not talking about the
girls who are tramps but
about the sO-called nice
girl who gives her date
every reason to believe she
wants him to get fresh.
How can a boy tell what
a girl is really thinking
about in this kind of stu
alton?
A boy never can really
know what a girl is thinking
Of, so about all he can do is
use his best Judgment and be
a gentleman at all times.
Unfortunately, many teen
age girls do not know how
easily their actions and
manner of dress can be mis-
interpreted by the boys they
date.
What the girl may con-
slider as simply good groom
ing and a friendly manner
may appear to the boy as
flirting and Haunting sex
appeal. Sometimes, of course,
the boy jumps to the wrong
conclusions. In my opinion,
