Rumors had it that he was digging a bomb shelter. One individual was sure that there was gold on the senator's property. Our inquirey resulted in the following explanation. Back in '26 (Mr senator experimented with a liquid concoction made of dandelion blossoms. The formula called for a twenty-five year aging process to bring it to the 108 octane potency. Many changes have taken place on the senator's estate lft the past twenty-five years. The marker he had placed over the spot has deteriorated long ago from exposure to the elements. By using a Geiger counter he has finally located his prize, and after a weekend of digging came Up with a Molotoy cocktail that he hasn't dared to sample ft* yet. MUION TRAFFIC DEATHS IN NAIF CENTURY: RATE INDICATES $ YEARS RR SECOND MILLION %ho will be the one millionth person to die in a traffic accident? Where will it happen? Exactly when? The National Safety- Council •aid today the answers to those questions never will be known. If the present rate of traffic continues, some time next December a child will dart into the (street, a homeward-bound sales- Jlnan will try to past a truck on a hill, a young coupie will hurtle joff a curve on the way to a dance, tta old woman will become confused crossing a street-- and the •-^millionth traffic victim will puss •unheralded into a dusty police file. But even though the actual Identity of the millionth victim 'will remain a mystery, the Council has made plans which will enable it to name the fateful day *s a climax to an intensive safe driving campaign in which all safety organizations are cooperating. The Council announced it is setting up the machinery to supplement its regular monthly reports with special weekly summaries from the states. On Nov. 15, the Council will begin issuing weekly bulletins on the , grand totaf of traffic deaths since the advent of the automobile. These bulletins also will forecast the probable date of the millionth fatality. . "Oar only purpose in trying to Identify such a grim date in his- \ory is to dramatize the horror of Dick a huge traffic toll," said Ned •, t-- H. Dearborn, Council president. "Perhaps 1,000,000 dead--almost twice the number of Americans who have died in combat in all Our wars--will crack the apathy of a nation which can see 35,000 persons killed by autos in a year without much concern. "It has taken a little more than fifty years to kill the first million. If traffic deaths continue at the present rate, it will take only thirty years to kill the second million. We can only hope that this terrible day of seven-figure reckoning will become a safety ftulestone--n o t just another gravestone--on the road to more responsible use of the automobile." ^ The Council. Which ihakes regular. cumulative tabulations of traffic deaths, said that even its elaborate nationwide reporting system is not fast enough to give up-to-the-minute totals. Furthermore. vital statistics were not recorded completely by all the Btates in earlier years after the turn of the century, so that motor vehicle death totals for some years are estimates based on the 6est available information. Thus any attempt to identify tfie actual millionth victim, Mr. Dearborn said, would place the spotlight of notoriety arbitrarily on the tragedy of one family when "the spotlight should be turned on the tragedy of a nation which permits motor madness to go on." Eyesight Dffferefcoa •-/>; Persons who have had thl ci^ttalline lens of the eye removed, because of cataract can see by light of wavelengths shorter than thosfc which normal eyes can detect. Violet light, with waves about 1/70,006th of an inch in length, are the shortest most of us can see, though the retina--the sensitive "film" of tht eye--is able to respond to shorter waves in the near ultraviolet region. These, however, are stopped by the crystalline lens. When the lens is removed these waves can reach the retina and the sensation produced is that of deep blue light.
