It was a calamity in every shocking sence of the word, and yet you probably didn't even realize it was happening to us. Leading insurance companies report that traffic accidents took i casualty toll of more than two •nillion Americans in 1952. It ivas the worst year in history for notor vehicle deaths and injuries. Webster says the word calamity implies "a grievous misfortune, usually public yet affectng many persons and often causing widespread distress-". We itand in awe of flood, famine, train and plane crashes because lhese are calamitous events occurring in one short span of time--one moment, one hour, or one day.

PROPOSE CHAN0ES IN STATE TRAFFIC LAWS ON BUSES - t The Chicago \ Motor club has recently proposed changes |h Illinois traffic laws requiring vehicles to stop for loading or unloading school buses. Ilie changes are. designed to bring the State statures into conformity with the natldhal Uniform Vehicle Code. "Illinois traffic laws, which are based on national model laws, should be amended in the interest of highway safety to make them consistent with other states which have also patterned their laws after the Uniform Code," stated Chas. M. Hayes, president o$ fhe Chicago Motor club. " ' The first of the two principal changes in the law would exempt vehicles from stopping for a halted school bus when traveling In the opposite direction on a superhighway or in the same direction on a limited access type roadway where pedestrians are prohibited py law from crossing. The other amendment deals with the requirement that a motorist must stop, when approaching a school bus from either direction at all times. The Motor club proposal would altei this requirement to apply only outside a business or residential section. Thuveday, April lS, / Vm Traffic be urged a clarification of a section cf Illinois traffic laws requiring mechanical turn signals on large vehicles. At present, th« law merely provides that vehicle! "so 'constructed or loaded that a hand and arm signal would not be vis* ible both front and rear" must be equipped with mechanical devices for stop or turn signals. The proposed law, which waj adopted last year in the national Uniform Vehicle Code, spells out the legislative intent of the ter home from the hqspital. The Infant has been confined to Ouidren's Memorial hospital in Chicago since shortly after birth. Seems like there is a measle? on the loose. This little jnbhster doesn't seem to mind whom it bites. It's conscience dint evpn bother it when it bit three-month old son of Mr. and Mrs.' William Martinec. It has bitten quite a few school children also. Speaking of little monsters, Mr. Mumps vts trying to get in on the show. I'm to)i m few children have them too, dents usually are awesome only when they happen to you or someone you know. This, ironically, is an underlying cause of our traffic troubles. If drivers and pedestrians respecte^ the dangers inherent in driving and walking, they would follow the rules of the road and avoid the accidents that add up to calamity.
