The bare statistics, thought provoking as they are, cannot give, an adequate picture of the honor of major automobile accidents. Figures canimt express broken bones mangled bodies crushed skulls obliterated features decapitated bodies and all the rest of the results of fatal motor crashes. Nor can figures picture the tragedy of parentlcss children and broken-heartedependents of the victims of recklessly driven cars. In a recent article in Reader's Digest, F. C. Furness wrote: s "A massacre is only a question of scale and numbers seven corpses are no deader than one. Fach shattered man, woman or child who went to make up the 36,000 corpses checked up last year had to die a persona! death." ' That is worth thinking about next time you take the wheel of your car.

Fvery dollar of the billions invested in life insurance policies means that someone lias saved, has worked and has done what he could to set up a defense against the exigencies of the future. Fvery time a premium is paid, or a new policy sold, it means that dependents are being protected against the unexpected deatli of the or that the wage-earnhimself is setting in motion machinery whereby lie will !e assured of an independent, comfortable old age. wage-earne- 148 r, er YEARS OF CONSTITUTIONAL LIBERTY ON September 17. the Constitution of the United States was 148 years old. Observation of Constitution Day lias focused attention on that great document and on the dangers that are now Insetting it. It is no exaggeration to say that Constitutional rights and privileges are menaced that political experimentation with theories of alien origin are usually the direct antithesis of the American scheme of government and that many of the politicians who pay lip service to the Constitution in high sounding speeches, are among the leaders of those who emasculate it. Some are urging that a Constitutional Amendment be passed whereby Congress and the President would be given vastly broader powers than they now possess in spite of the fact that such an amendment would possibly make the Hill of Rights meaningless. Others advocate a law depriving the Supreme Court of its right to pass on the constitutionality of !egilation-'e- n though that would eliminate the principle reason for the very existence of the Court, and make it no different from lower tribunals. Still others are urging new judicial "interpretations" of Constitutional provisions whereby the original meaning would be warped. And there are those who think it feasible to circumvent the Constitution, by political chicanery whereby laws can be kept away from a Supreme Court decision for a long period of time, until their unconstitutional ends have been attained. REGIMENTING THE SPUD TIIF humble spud has become the latest target for government. Under a law passed by the last Congress, the Irish potato is to have its turn in crop control, ("rowers who produce more than five bushels a year must submit to a if they produce more than stringent licensing system--antheir quota, a beay fine may be levied against them. Opposition arguments, based on the fact that the spud is an eccentric sort of animal, whose productivity is almost impossible to control, have had no avail. The new law did not have Administration support, an! seems to be regarded coldly by Secretary Wallace. It wa. put through by zealots who feel that nature should be regimented as thoroughly as possible.
