DEATH TAKES NO HOLIDAY The Calgary Herald, referring to a news summary of traffic deaths over a holiday week-end: HAILEYBURIAN AND COBALT WEEKLY POST "They did not dié gracefully with time and more to say fare- well to loved ones. They died horribly, their flesh pierced by metal and glass and in some gruesome crashes fire added to the horror. And among those whose lives were taken in such sickening fashion were careful drivers who paid the supreme penalty for encountering, through no fault of their own, some cri- ~ minal dolt behind the wheel of the other car. "Death does not discriminate on the highway, taking the guilty and sparing the innocent. Often the person responsible for a fatal crash is spared and the people who were free of any blame are killed. "The forecasters of the Cana- dian Highway Safety Conference would have been immeasurably relieved to have had the motor- ing public prove pete estimate of fatalities much too high.
