HAMER patrol situation in many states. But these "mice" -- the speeders -- play very dangerously. Far too often they kill others, if not themselves, before they are caught in the act of speeding or driving recklessly. It should be noted, that the laws against speeding are observed by the majority of drivers but there* are •still far too many millions of motorists racing along highways at excessive speeds. Public opinion must help to persuade them to obey speed limits. There also must be sufficient police manpower to enforce the laws against those who cannot be induced to slow down to a safer pace. The President's highway safety conference took cognizance of the prevalent "penny-wise, pound foolish" policies regarding state police forces when it said: "Lack of manpower and of selective enforcement, plus excessive speed, are undoubtedly some of the reasons for the continuing increase in traffic fatalities in rural areas." Thomas N. Boate, accident The public must wake up to these facts in the states that are woefully • behind the times. It must demand, and not rest until its own state police or highway patrol forte is strong enough to wage a winning fight against the speeding evil. If it does that the public's chances of safer travel on rural roads will be increased as the number of speeders decrease. . _ prevention department mnnager dogs.
