THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MONDAY, JUNE 30, 1980 SAFETY CONFERENCE URGES INSPECTION OF ALL CARS BY LAW Certificates of Proper Condition Proposed Before License Is Issued MILLION AUTOS DEFECTIVE Brakes in More Than That Num- ber in Four States Found to Invite Tragedy Mechanical defects in automobiles ‘and other motor vehicles, due to neg- lect and careless use by owners, are causing 15 per cent of the deaths by traffic accident, according to facts developed by the third national con- ference on street and highway safety. * Removal from the streets and high- ‘ways of every car in a dangerous me- chanical condition, whether from de- fective steering gear, faulty brakes or broken headlights, through inspection under state supervision of all motor vehicles, was emphatically urged by the conference. Tt was brought out by the motor traffic authorities of Pennsylvania, ‘New Jersey, Maryland and: Delaware that among 4,000,000 motor vehicles inspected in those states, more than 1,100,000 required brake adjustments or renewals, 1,000,000 required adjust- ment of lights, 260,000 required steer- ing gear repairs, and 500,000 required other mechanical. corrections to put them in a safe condition for operation on the streets and roads. Would Banish Decrepit Cars ‘The conference said that in recent years there has been a notable Im- provement in the design and con- struction of motor vehicles from @ safety standpoint, and the manufac- turers are actively continuing this ‘work. It was pointed out also that the owners of fleets of vehicles have progressed in a marked degree in the proper maintenance of automobiles and ‘taxicabs, but that there has not been a corresponding improvement in maintenance on the part of indi- vidual owners of private cars. Such neglect, it was emphasized, is adding constantly to the list of in- juries and fatalities, and the hazards of traffic on the streets and roads. ‘The estimate of one traffic expert in the conference was that in some states one-half of the automobiles that have been in use for 12 months have headlights that are out of focus in some degree, and throw the beams in the eyes of approaching motorists at night. The conference in its decision on this matter said: “Old cars which can no longer be mechanically kept in a safe condition should be eliminated from the high- ‘ways, whether by proper provision in the certificate of title law, or by the ‘highway safety plan’ of the manufac- turers, which ides an allowance for the junking of decrepit cars.” Manufacturers were urged by the conférence to promote the proper maintenance of motor vehicles by giv- ing full and complete instructions on this ‘point to the purchasers of new cars. The drivers of cars also should learn. to. detect the presence of worn parts, it was pointed out, and to eith- er make regular inspections, or have such inspecion made by competant persons. Makers Asked to Assist In emphasizing this matter, conference said: “There should be furnished with each ynew car complete and simple instructions regarding the care of the various parts and equipment. Deal- ers, service stations and gt should encourage regular attention by car owners to maintenance, and to facilitate prompt and reliable inspec- tion and.service, whether required by ® police officer or voluntarily desired by the motorist. “Such stations should be provided ‘with brake and headlight testing equipment, or special testing stations should be established under state law. the In some cases the police of- ficer was unable to determine wheth- ’ jer mechanical defects existed in * vehicles involved in accidents without making definite tests. Usually only "euch defects are reported as are glar- ing. and unmistakable. The state of Oregon reported de- fects in more than 15 per cent of 2,- 000 vehicles involved in accidents. In Cook county, Illinois, 567 cars in bog fatal accidents were reported by 2 echanical Defects in ! - Lim NOT Gos THATS ALL. AND IVE PINNED FLAP Bact so L . 320 (Crea. u. s. pat. ovr.

Russell into office as Chicago’s police com- missioner, and a second wave of pop- ular indignation washed him out. The clamor against his administra- tion, which resulted+jn his resigna- tion, arose after the fatal shooting of Al Lingle, Tribune eines and intimate friend of Russell. Genial “Bill” Russell, before his retirement from the commissioner's office, never had gone backward in the 30 years of his police service. In August, 1928, he became “boss” of the department. There had been gang killings; reform organizations complained the city was “wide open”, that vice was rampant. They demanded and got the of- ficial head of “Mike” Hughes, whom Mayor William Hale Thompson had called upon the year before to “rid” Chicago of crime.

Russell then began the practice he followed for the next two years— rounding up all the known hoodlums and tossing them 4n jail. And at the six-month mark of Ruseell’s tenure, the St. Valentine’s day massacre of seven was enacted. “Prohibition’s to blame,” shouted the commissioner, and he explained that the profits in illicit liquor was the pawn of the rival gangs. Twenty years ago, when Russell was walking a beat, he became a friend of Al Lingle, who developed into a crime reporter. hen le was shot, Russell said: i “T loved hig: as a son.” The commissioner did not have any children. “I'm glad to get out of this mess,” said Russell as he handed in his res- ignation, and he looked it.

Says Lodge: “Unemployment is said to be in- creasing all over the world, and, as in old days, there is an outcry that machines are responsible. An auto- matic machine can replace many hand workers; and in a country where engineering ingenuity is plenti- ful and labor expensive, as in the United States, the use of machinery is growing.” “We have created the mighty ine strumeht of production, but we have failed to control it,” says Canon Don- aldson. “For more than a century this monster has corrupted the morals of, employérs and employed. It is destroying our peace, our hap- piness, our health.” Pressing # button on a new hair brush releases two combs for use at the same time, a mirror being in- serted in the back of the brush Prevent _ SummerUpsets ‘Warm weather and changes of food and water bring frequent summer upsets unless healthy elimination is assured.
