How About Your Own Texaco Service & Garage The Regular Army soldier, with his new pay raise now In effect, is among the highest paid work' ers In the world, officials at the U. S. Army Recruiting Station, Provo. Utah, observed today. The new pay raise, recently signed by President Truman, ranges from a $19 boost per month for a staff sergeant, the lowest raise, to a $27 increase for a master sergeant, who rated the highest enlisted man's pay ad vance. A private first class and private received the next high est raises, with $26 and $25 raises, respectively. The new base pay raises in clude: Old New Differ Scale Scale $138 $165 $114 $ 96 $ 78 $ 66 $ 54 $ 50 Employing conservatives estimates, esti-mates, a master sergeant, in addition ad-dition to his monthly base pay of $165, receives $58 for dependency depen-dency allowances if he has a wife and one child (and $20 for each additional child); the equivalent of $75 for quarters, rations and clothing; $10 for medical, dental and hospital care, and $19 savings sav-ings on post exchange purchases and income tax ' expenditures, making his total salary $327 per month In actual cash and services. serv-ices. On proportionate pay estimates, esti-mates, a private gets $229 a month, only $98 less than a master sergeant. These figures include neither retirement benefits of approximately approxi-mately $80 per month for which the soldier is eligible, nor educational educa-tional benefits under the G-I Bill of Rights, which total up to more than $6,000 free education after a three-year enlistment.

That is the calculated statement state-ment of Robert E. Raleigh, director di-rector of the police traffic safety check program being conducted by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, after reviewing review-ing preliminary reports from 23 states. The report to which the IACP official referred, revealed that one out of every three a total of 35.3 per cent of the vehicles examined in the first part of the check, failed to meet mini mum safety standards. oi a roiai oi 163,076 vehicles ve-hicles in 23 states recorded in the preliminary figures, 13.5 per cent naa inadequate brakes; 5 per cent defective tires; 22.5 per cent faulty front lights; 29.9 per cent tauity rear or stop lights; .o per cent winasnieid wipers not worKing; 8.8 per cent defective defec-tive horns; and 10.6 per cent other obvious and hazardous defects. de-fects. The effect of accidents result ing irom careless driving and over-age and defective automobiles automo-biles is also reflected in figures on claims released by the world's largest automobile insurance company, ana this experience is general among all automobile insurances. This company had an increase of 51.3 per cent in the first four months ofr 1946 over the first four months of 1945, while the averaee cost nf claims was up 17 per cent over tne 1945 period. In dollars, this company paid out $7,890,943 in claims for the first quarter of 1946 as against $4,197,448 for the same period last year. Typical of driving conditions today, perhaps, is a study made by the Kansas City Star in which it was reported: "Courtesy among drivers of all classes of vehicles has become virtually non-existent. Slow signs at inter-sections are ignored by 80 to 90 per cent of all drivers. Stop signs have become mere 'slow signs to a high, percentage of motorists. Cutting in and out of traffic Is so common it hardly attracts attention any more." The report pointed out that motorists crowd and creep over cross walk markers, park in forbidden for-bidden zones or double park, and that more than half of the mot orists ignore school safety zones unless a traffic officer is on duty. Out of 1,025 accidents checked in one mnnt.h hmrrowcT- mn. , uviivivi, ZAiVIC j were caused by careless driving' than by defective cars. Among the drivers, the great majority were from 25 to 40 years old; 85 were intoxicated; 16 had been; four had physical defects and two went to sleep. All the others were normal drivers who did not observe the rules of safety and of courtesy. As traffic and insurance offlc lals have pointed out, the only solution to the increasing toll of highway horror is more careful driving on the part of every motorist. Even the automobile owner who doesn't have an accident acci-dent must pay for increased accidents ac-cidents and costs in the form of higher insurance rates, because no one knows when that same motorist will be involved in an accident. Automobile accidents are a national na-tional problem, but they are also a local problem and a personal problem with every driver., The way to stop accidents is to drive safely.
