CARPENTiER Sccrctary of State The combined efforts *in recent years of ^various groups such as automobile manufacturers, state legislatures, and safety organizations haye brought about the addition of safety devises to the later model autdmobiles. All parties concerned realize that' recently developed safety devices if installed in automobiles can substantially reduce the number of fatal accidents. Some such aids in the battle to reduce^-the waste of lives on our highways have already been incorporated into the models now on the road. And the auto industry has announced its desire to jwntinue to work (or a safer vehicle-Pone which will better protect the driver and passengers in the event of an accident. These strides forward are indeed encouraging signs. But, one thing must be remembered. No matter how safe the manufacturers are able to make their vehicles, it la still the duty of the motorist to prevent an accident! DON! TWO HEARINGS ON RE-ZONING PLANNED TUESDAY.
