Mwte, through his studies of < fflcUl laxity in dealing with i erlous driving offenses; As a ! armer chief of the Pennsylvania i late police ti*{/ic division and ' tow accident prevention departi ttent manager of the Association 1 >f Casualty and Surety compan- BS, certainly he should know rt»y so many Americans are tilled and injured in highway iccktenta. J Mr. Boate has delved into the luestion of just how many driv-! rs lose their licenses in a year's j ime because they have tieen | ound guilty of such flagrant 1 raffic law violations that they) ire dangerous to h&ye behind i he wheel of a motor He I earned that approximately 600.- >00 drivers a year suffei revo :ation or temporary suspension >f their operator's licenses. Tfcis total, Mr. Boate reports, •epresents "but a mere fraction ! >f the chronically dangerous driver traveling the highways." He < idds that "theae public menaces uren't being weeded out fast e- »ough." With both statements most of us will heaitily agree. A lot more of us should also ' Sgree that it is high time for Forthright action in official quar- . jters in all states to punish severely all drivers who commit iserious offenses on the highways, Including loss of their driving privilege. More than one-third -- or some 200,000 -- of those whose licenses are revoked or suspended in a single year are guilty of driving while intoxicated. Another 75,000 are the speeders, who as a class kill even more frequently than the drunken drivers. How about more suspensions there? Another trouble is that some states rule large numbers of 'drivers off the roads, but many other states impose relatively few revocations and suspensions. With the nation's accident toll alieady at a shameful level and getting worse daily, and with the positive knowledge^ that speeding is the primai y ' cause, there should be many revocations and suspensions for all serious traffic law violations at least until a sharp reduction in accidents has proved that the dangerous drivers have been weeded out or learned their lesson. Mr. Boate says m«tny drivers know only one language -- ".You're going to lose your license." Bo be' it. fjet'g really begin to "talk their language" everywhere. Easter Bunn • ** Pretty and Spring-like--that's the Vay youi; Easter dinner table should look! And with easy-to-get crepe paper and laiundry bluing (the kind that comes in bead form) you can easily make a gay^repe paper chariot like this for your Easter eggs'. The effect is different as can be! Wagon: Cut a strip of"light green crepe paper 12"xl2", and against the grain. Stretch it full length . .. then, with fingertips, pinch lightly every few inches. Smooth out slightly. Brush paste over back of an 8" paper plate arid cover with the prepared paper, pressing into place. Paste extending edges of paper on other side of plate. Take a fold of light green crepe paper, just as you buy it, and without unfolding, cut a 21i" strip from one eri^l. Open, ana then refold into 8 layers. Pin along one side to hold in place, and cut other side into fringe 2" deep. Keep strip folded and dip tips of fringe into Easter Blue**. Open strip and allow to dry. Make a loose roll of crashed white tissue paper long enough to go around edge of plate. Wrfcp fringe around tissue roll, overlapping closely as you go, so that no tissue shows, and fringe is full. Paste so that a circle is formed all around edge of plate. Wheels: Cut two 11 *x%" strips of cardboard. Paste together, leaving about 1" unpasted at both ends. Bend these ends in opposite directions for tabs. Cue two 4" circles of cardboard and cover both sides with light green crepe paper. Bind rims of wheels with 1" wyje strip of light green crepe paper, which has been cut crosswise of the paper fold ... stretching paper and pasting as you go around. Paste tabs to wheels and paste strip underneath plate. . ' v Trixsming for Wheel: Cut a strip of erchid crepe paper 1 Vi" wide and across grain of paper. Fold in half lengthwise and t\«st, pasting to edge of wheel as you twist. Repeat the twist around center of wheel with orchid crepe paper, and put a tiny twist in center of each wheel. **Easter Blue: Mix to a creamy consistency 1 cup bead-form laundry Uuing with a quarter cup of water. Buy Easter bonny and chick cutouts to complete the decoration. attorneV general ROLES REGARDING '"' WEDDING WITNESSES Only when the bride or groom or both of them are Quakers who wed under the laws of that church do IHinois statutes require witnesses to a wedding other than the celebrant.
