The blow came as a complete surprise and the Ned Cross in Washington is otganizing all its facilities in an effort to save as many lives as possible.” If you had read the above paragraph on the front page ef your local newspaper, the shock would have been genuine and local officials would in all probability take immediate precautions to prevent the same tragedy | in’ their own town.

And thete are facts that make the | yaegidenté of 1946 more. dis- tutbifig to you—the careful eo ever before. he last year when we set a record in slaughtering heman beings on the road wae 1941. Ninety-three per e@nt of all automobiles in those accidents were in good driving condition. This year the per cent in good condi- tien has dropped to about two-thirds, 67 per cent. ixperiences of the larg- eat automobile protection imewrance company, which writes twice as many pol- ieies as any other, show that thie yeur's accidents are twice as frequent as those for the same period of time im 1945. All of which adds up to a good jump for a lene year. The jump is re- flected in higher payments om automobile policies, which are being asked today all over the country.. Even if you are lucky enough to escape damage on the highway, you will pay pert of the growing cost in insurance rates. Experts in thie country, who have studied the traffic problem, say that the danger will be- e©ome even more complicated and greater in coming years; they estimate that half a million U. 8. citizens will die because of traffic acci- dents in the next ten years. ‘That waste of human life EE Eases Mt Ri nl nll ee A A | reason for the lack of inter- whip up one’s courage or de- | termination to succeed. Had’ man, from the time of his appearance on Earth, found | everything to his liking, he would have been Satisfied | and would not, have exerted | himself to better his condi-/ tion. As a result, he still) would be living in caves or) in trees. ! That thought came to as we read in The Citizen, that only 50 residents of! Monroe county had register- | us| ed during the 10 weeks, the | books were open to have | voters qualify for the gen-; era] election next month. Visitors, unfamiliar with lecal political conditions, might have felt that we showed a lack of apprecia- tion over the importance of an election, though it was, explained that in the pri-| mary were qualified for No- | vember’s election. } But we at home know the j } ‘ i 4 | est. The election will be a formality. The fight was last May. and interest then was tense, and several thousand | residents of Monroe county | went to the polls. Next month there will be no op- position, and few votes will) be cast. Politically, there are no|; | obstacles to overcome, and | | the people are apathetic. | Pre-dawn man, had he been apathetic. would still be pre-dawn man. But he had to fight against what at, times appeared overwhelm-; ing odds. And it was those , fights that sharpened his mind to overcome obstacles. | ™ Without the fights, his mind} would have remained dor- mant. Self - satisfaction would have kept his prog-j ress in check.

IPS AND PLANES. | } The contest between air- planes and ships for the f. vor of séa-going passengers is developing keenly, with | the air lines reducing their trans-Atlantic fares to about! the same rates charged by the ocean-going liners. | If the Civil Aeronautics | air lines will cut their fares | for passage between this) country and Europe to ap-; proximately $325, which is} the amount that a passenger | would have to pay for a ride on the big liner, America. There will be those who! * prefer one or the other serv- ice. Some people will want to fly to save tim@, while others will prefer a more leisurely trip across the big pond. For speed, ‘the air- plane has the advantage but for comfort and ease, with pleasure and amusement, the liners have the call. Former President Roose- velt died worth nearly $2,- 000,000. Among his posses- sions were one $50 and two $25 war bonds. Many Key Westers have many times| more of these patriotic in-| i: vestments or shall we say} loans to the government? | is, for a great part, unneces- | sary. The President's High- ; way safety conference re- cently declared that, “One } of the most positive chal-' lenges to public action today | in the United States is need | to reduce traffic accidents.” | The confe “a éoncluded | that “If there ever was a, need for unselfish devotio: to a single cause, it exists to day in our quest for high- way safety.” The conference is right in| its conclusion.
