They also can act « a8 good-will ambessadors, if they make friends with — peoples and show them courtesy and considera- . But, above all else, the number of people traveling abroad these days is an indication of the wealth of the United States. The average European visit costs some- thing over a thousand dollars, and probably over two thousand. The number of Americans who can afford such vacation luxury is both surprising and encouraging. HOW TO STOP TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS A city court judge in Utah has discovered a system . which seems to be reducing minor traffic violations to a considerable degree. The Clerk of the Court has checked the record of violators who repeat after given the special treatment, and they are found to be few and far between. The project has been operation less than a year| but ft is apparent that the experiment is already a suc- cess, The judge, W. Dean Loose, of Provo, Utah, says the, new approach makes a profound psychological impres- » What is this new apporach? It is giving the violator, when brought before the judge, the choice of a fine or a jail sentence, or the writing of a thesis on traffic safety. Many of the violators choose the latter course and sub- mit a thesis to the judge. EMBL ISIHIM .

After the thesis treatment, the violators manage to stay out of traffic court in most instances, After going to the trouble of having to write a thesis on:traffic safety, we can understand why a motorist would be embarrassed to be hauled into, court for violat- ing the very principle on which he wrote so lavishly. With the violator’s name signed to the thesis, it is impossible for him to plead ignorant of the law, or to escape the possibility of being placed in a hypocritical position be- fore the judge. That seems to be the psychology involved in the Provo experiment.
