ACCIDENT REDUCTION PREDICTED THROUGH VEHICLE INSPECTION "Illinois traffic accident figures could be greatly reduced through a program of statewide motor vehicle inspection," was the statement made today by Frank II. Hawk, president of the Illinois Association of Insurance Agents. "If fewer people are killed and injured and less property damage experienced from highway traffic acidents in states having periodic motor vehicle inspection program, then we urgently recommend that all motorists in the state of Illinois get firmly behind the enactment of a law requiring the inspection of all motor vehicles in the state." Thirteen states having periodic motor vehicle Inspection programs have an average annual street and highway death rate which is more than 12 per cent below the national average for the rest of the country, the Illinois Association of Insurance Agents revealed in Chicago. States which currently provide state owned and operated stations or private motor vehicle inspection stations appointed by the state inclub at her home Wednesday. A 1 o'clock luncheon was served.

'Even though one may concede that periodic motor vehicle inspection is not solely responsibly for the better traffic acident fatality recory of states having such a pragram, the fact remains that these states are way out in front in reducing America's accident toll," said President Hawk. "In 1948. the last year for which detailed figures are available, more thj,n 1$ per cent of all automobile fatalities were attributed to unsafe vehicles. Experience ov«.r a period of years has shown that from 40 to 60 per cent of all cars have defective brakes, for example. In states offering periodic motor vehicle inspection, however, only a small percentage of the vehicle* checked were found to have Inadeqaate brakes. Mortf than 30,000 Americans are killed and over one million more injured each and every year on our streets and highways," Pres. Hawk declared. "There is no question but that these figures would he appreciably higher were it not for motor vehicle inspection pro grams."

Cook, prominent Wauconda township supervisor, was the victim of an unfortunate accident recently when one of the fingers on his right hand was completely severed and a second one badly injured in a power saw he was operating in the basement of his home. The accident occurred so quickly and unexpectedly that Mr. Cook can not tell exactly what happened. He knows that a block of wood he was cutting got stuck in the saw and flew out of his hand and • into space, coming extremely close to hitting him in the head. In this maneuvering his hand came in contact with the rapidly revolving saw blade.

Mister, that's Power, with a capital R What happens beneath that brawny Buick bonnet happens in no other car In the world. \ears ahead of the rush to highcompression valve-in»head engines, 'Buick was in there pitching for more power from every drop of fuel. The result was--and is--a spectacular engineering phenomenon that makes itself felt the instant you touch toe to gas treadle. \ou command a rapid-fire sequence of tiny tornados, letting loose their pent-up power every foe inches that a Buick travelst -- If you could look inside that Fireball engine, you'd see the reason. Instead of the flat-topped pistons used in other cars, Buick uses a turbo-top piston, contoured like this: So the inrushing fuel whirlwinds into a compressed ball that adds a super-urge to the dowii* stroke of the piston. And you get the thrill-and thrift-of this Buick "first" in every mile you drive. More than that, you get an engine tried-and-true--an engine that's been polished and perfected in every detail up through the years.
