TAX ALLOTMENTS Townships and road districts throughout Illinois have been allotted $812,221 as their share ,of January motor fuel tax collections, according to Morton H; Hollingsworth, director of the state Department of Finance. Renew that sobsertptioa to the Plaindealer now! The nation is headed for some big spending on highways if the current trend toward higihway construction continues, according to Chas. M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor clulb. But the figures are deceiving, Hayes cautions, as costs of highway building have ri$en so sharply that l£r less road ia obtained for the money spent. "Not only is the highway crisis facing the nation becoming more apparent to officials and interested citizen groups, but spending on roads (has been increasing precipitously since 1945," HayPs stated. Money spent on highways and streets in #the United States reached the highest level in history during 1951. An estimated $4,261,000,000 was spent by federal, state and local governments that year. "This figure is more than twice the $1,863,000,000 provided for the same purposes in 1946-- a scant seven years ago." It is necessary to remember tlftt thougCi these figures indic a t e a n e n c o u r a g i n g s t a r t towards solving the highway problem, costs have increased to the place where the amount of highway obtained for the money spent has been sharply reduced. Hayes provided the following breakdown of tflre total expenditure: Federal government, $459,- 000,000; state government, $2,- 660,000.000; local rural units, $488,000,000; and urban, $654,- 000,000. In Illinois, a proposed program of primary highway construction and rehabilitation calls for the spending of $93,134,005 during 1953. Of this sum, $26,- 000,000 will be in the form of federal aid. Rural highway patrols enforcing traffic iaWs against speeders and other dangerous drivers must be Increased immediately in all but a few states to head off "shocking increases" in deaths and injuries in traffic accidents, the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies warns. The most conservative esti mates show that from 5,000 to 7,500 more highway patrolmen are needed in the nation as a whole to protect the public more adequately a g a i n st a^ide^s caused by drivers violating traffic laws, according to Thomas ft. Boate. manage); of the Association's accident prevention department. He added that they should be assigned entirely to rural highways, 'Vhere they will do the most good" in .Inducing accidents. Declaring th*fc. highway patrol forces in general are "dangerously under-staffed," Mr. Boate said he made his estimate of their "urgent" manpower needs after comparing present numerical strength with standards established for the various states by the International Association of Chiefs of Police. His study of this data disclosed that "substandard" forces, • in point of size, exist in nearly all states. Present overall strength of state patrols assigned to traffic dutjt in rural areas, where twothirds of U. S. automobile fatalities and almost half of the injuries occur, is about 10,000 men, he said. He added tjiat total personnel of state highway patrol and police forces, which usually have numerous other duties besides patrolling rural roads, numbers about 14,000 men. for PIANOS ORGANS •ee '•4he largest and finest selection la the Fox Val% CLARENCES SHOP Bird Houses - Lawn Chairs - Lawn and Porch S» Picnic and Umbrella Tables - Pier and Park Beoohee Juvenile Chairs, Swings and Sand Boxes - Window Bum Flower Wheelbarrows - Rose Arbors, Trellis - Picket Peaeea/tlc.

SMITH ' PHONE 583-J-l "jOIINSBUR'i Mr. Boate, who directed the traffic division of the Pennsylvania State Police before he undertook his present highway safety work in 1944, declared the "glaring shortages of road patrol manpower" are permitting reckless drivers to travel at speeds up to 100 miles an hour on rural highways and cause extremely high tolls of death, injury and property damage on the open road. "Too large a proportion of the nation *'affic accidents is resulting Horn the woeful lack of police manpower patrolling rural highways," said Mr. Boate. "Speeders and other law violators in rural traffic will cause shocking increases in the highway accident toll in non-urban areas unless many states wake up to the ^langerous situation that has developed through undermanned rural highway patrols. "The states that have not kept, pace with the demands for adequate policing and accident control created by growing traffic on their highways must act immediately to close this loophole. It has already caused the steady rise in rural accidents since World War II by permitting accidents to catch up with violators traveling at high speeds before the law did. This process, unfortunately, has claimed hundreds of thousands of innocent victims of head-on crashes and other accidents on the open road |h the post-war years. "Inadequate patrol staffs comprise one of the weakest spots' 'in fhe nation's effort to control and reduce traffic accidents. In effect, many states are 'sending a boy on a man's errand' to the hottest front of the highway safety battle--the rural roads. "To do a man-sized job of enforcing traffic laws more effectively, which in my opirtion will do more to reduce highway accid e n t s i m m e d i a t e l y t h a n a n y other single effort, virtually all states must immediately increase their rural highway patrol strength before time runs out. If they fail to peet this present acute emergency in traffic law enforcement, their'Inaction may be expected to add many thousands of victims td the already shocking totals of dead and injured in accidents on the «|>en road." \" UNEMPLOYMENT UP Unemployment in the Springfield area reached its highest level for the past two years during the sixty days ending Jar. 15, according* to the February report of the Illinois State Employment service. The 3,400 persons out of work constituted 5.6 per cent of the area's entire labor force. An increasing demand for workers this spring, particularly in construction, non electrical machinery, leather pro ducts and retail trade, is pre dieted by the report. An upturn in farm employement is also expected with the coming of spring U.S. Choice Beel at Wholesale In order to give more people a' o chance to get some of thil Top Choice Beef, we are extending our very low price for another week. • Complete Bne or leer's Poultry Remedies at Wattles Drag Store, Central Garage If RED- & SMITH SALES SERVICE Complete Motor Overhauling Welding i \|$9 buy, sell, trade, m ; service all makes.
