SAFETY WORKSHOPS R A series of area traffic safety workshops is being held throughout Illinois as a feature of Gov. William G. Stratton's highway traffic safety program. This series of workshops, which opened with a meeting in Springfield, is giving cities and counties -Opportunity to review their traffic safety problems.

These meetings are preliminary to the President's Conference on Traffic Safety, to be held in Chicago May 23-24. Many participants in the area workshops will be invited to this conference as representatives of the State of Illinois. HARDEST BUSIEST CHEAPEST WORKERS IN TOWN PLAINDEALER WANT ADS Specific Traffic Safety Program Hopes To Hold Down Annual Toll So you think things are messed up out there on the highway? Well, just wait another ten years! The National Safety Council has taken a peep into the future and come up with these disconcerting figures: v By 1966, an endless rovarm of 82,000,000 motor vehicles will jam the streets and highways -- 20,000,000 more than are on the road now. 'The^ will be piloted at various time^by 90,000,000 drivers. They will travel approximately 825 billion miles a year. The traffic toll that year will be around 53,000 -- unless some genius manages to pull down the prevailing death rate by getting to those 90,000,000 drivers with a safety sales talk that is more convincing than anything thought up so far. Faced with this foreboding future, the Council has today a specific traffic safety program designed not only fo hold down the traffic toll, but to expedite the flow of traffic. Safety authorities agree the two problems are inseparably interwoven. The Council emphasized that while it accepts its responsibility, it cannot do the job alone, and that the helo of every person who drives, rides or walks is essential. Council's Plan Here is the Council's plan for cutting the. toll and congestion of, future traffic -- based on proven .techniques of engineering, education and enforcement: 1. Convince the public that the only real answer to the traffic problem is for every individual not only to drive and walk sensibly and safely himself, but to join actively in an organized community and national effort to see that others do the same. If this means rougher, tougher traffic law enforcement -- as it will in many places -- demand, support and accept it! 2. Give every community the facts on how its traffic safety programs stacks up against recognized standards -- and help it bring itself up to or above par. 3. Build as many miles of safe, modern accident-resistant highways as possible -- and as fast as possible. 4. Along with building new and better and safer roads, use every modern technique of traffic engineering and law enforcement to make exsisting highways as fool-proof and safe as possible. 5. Cut through red tape, apathy and legislative inertia to obtain uniform vehicle laws and do what common sense tells the nation it should have done long ago -- give, the driver a set of simple, understandable traffic rules and laws that he can follow from coast to coast -- and that he can be sure will be enforced. More Rules 6. Make driver education -- in class and behind the wheel -- a required course for every student of driving agf in every higlf school. 7. Make it so tough to get a driver's license that only a person Who is physically, mentally and emotionally qualified to drive in modern traffic can get one. 8. Take the license away from any driver as soon as he demonstrates inability to drive as a decent, sensible citizen should drive. 9. Back traffic courts to the limit in showing errant drivers and walkers that it just isn't smart or healthy. to behave selfishly or dangerously , in traffic. When if comes to PRESCRIPTIONS... # If you are "lucky" the home remedy you try may "get you on your feet again." But isn't health too important * matter to take chances? Better see your Doctor right away. And when you have his prescription, bring it to this pharmacy where careful compoundingis a specialty. PHONE 40 108 8.
