The nation's Main Streets will be decked out in holly and greenery, bright lights will be strung across streets and from lamp post to lamp post, and above the noise of happy people preparing for Christmas Day will be heard the traditional music of Christmas carols. All this will reflect the preparations of Americans for one of the happiest days of the year. They will go about their business of buying shiny toys amid the sparkle and tinsel of Christmas decorations unmindful of the ap proach of one of the most tragic days In the country's history. It " will be the day the millionth traffic death in the nation is recorded. The day will be announced by the A National Safety are tAAItl Council.twoThere factors only that could delay " beyond FCATURt the period, the council reports. One would be bad weather that would keep most automobiles in garages. The other would be a sudden shift to cautious driving on the part of motorists. Neither appears likely. The millionth fatality could be someone In this home town. For that reason, It would seem appro priate for local merchants to in corporate safety slogans in their Christmas advertising, and even promote a safety campaign that could insure a happy Christmas for the local community. Up to the end of September 990,200 Americans had been Injured fatally in automobile accidents. Since then an average of 110 deaths a day have occurred from accidents. It Is just a matter of time until the millionth has happened. Five days before the millionth fatality the Safety Council will begin to Issue daily bulletins,' but will not attempt to identify the 1,000,- 000 victim. It would be an almost impossible task. For Instance, suppose the count rises to 999,998 and then three men are killed in a coUision on a highway. Which would De No. 1,000,000? The National Safety Council has compiled actual traffic deaths since 1933. The statistics on deaths before that time are the best available records and estimates. The earliest vehicle death the council has been able to find occurred In New York City, September 13, 1899. The New York Times printed a story, it began: "H. H. Bliss, a real estate dealer with offices at 41 Wall Street and living at 235 West Seventy-fift- h Street, was run over last night at Central Park West and Seventy-fourt- h Street He was injured fatally. "Bliss was alighting from a trolly car when he was ' knocked down and run over by an automobile in charge of Arthur Smith of 151 West d Street." More and more such stories began to appear in newspapers. In the last two decades the automobile accident story probably has been printed more often than any other newspaper item except such fixtures as weather forecasts. The annual toll of fatalities passed the 20,000 mark In 1925, pushed beyond the 30,000 level "M-Day- srnsn WATERLILIES in soft pinks and greens measure 9 inches, need only to be ironed onto your materials.

The estimate was made by Edward F. Dorset, president of Christmas Club, a corporation of New York. The distribution of $950,000,-00- 0 across the nation In time for Christmas will mean a great economical shot In the arm for the retail merchants of the country. Approximately 38 per cent of the total, or $361,760,000, will be used for Christmas purchases. A cross section survey indicates the remainder will be used as follows: Permanent savings, $257,040,-00insurance premiums, $66,640,- 000; mortgage payments, $19,040,-00year end bills, $114,240,000; taxes, $66,640,000; education, and miscellaneous, $47,600,- 0; 0; 0; 000. The total distribution this year is 3.4 per cent ahead of last year and represents an all time high for the 41 years of Christmas Club operation. The average per member distribution is about $87.50 for the entire country, as against $84.57 last year. In the large metropolitan areas the average per member distribution is approximately $99.09. The total number of individual members participating this year is approximately the same as a year ago. Christmas Club officials believe that this continuing increase in club savings shows a definite trend In the public thinking toward Individual financial security which is the ultimate financial security of the nation. In the distribution of funds this year New York state leads as it has for many years with about 20 per cent of the entire fund.

Of all the possible promotions the home town merchant, business organization, or civic club could undertake for the Christmas season, the prevention of seems as important as any.

ObqVanJasj.fi) tiattrtitOK'i battn ar awsjt Over the past few years, Australia's hustling program of national development has called for the introduction of more men, more material, and more money. People, equipment and dollars have gone from the United States to help in the creation of a greater nation through the building of great hydroelectric undertakings and Irrigation projects. After Japan surrendered in September 1945, Australia quickly set about a program to build and strengthen this nation of 7,000,000. A big migration plan, plus industrial expansion and resources development, went into force, and today the population is now approaching 8,500,000. This figure will continue to increase rapidly as Australia relaxes many of its immigration laws. Many American in Australia during the war married Australian girls, and after the traffic took place war a two-wa- y across the Pacific Australian war brides going to settle In the United States and a smaller number of American returning to build a new Ufa in Australia, which many find resembles the United States in many respects. The impetus of national development has created new demands for men with the pioneering spirit, and on the great construction projects now under way in Australia, Amer- icans with this quality are adding their muscle and their know-hoto the building program. Typical is Ron Poath, from Runtsville, Missouri, who has been on the move for the past 12 years from dams to airfields and from highways to more and bigger dams, and his wife, Ellen, with their daughter Louanne (12) and son Eddie (10), have lived on wheels for the past seven years, but now have come to rest at last in Australia. They are one of 27 American families of construction bosses settled in a picturesque valley on the site of one of Australia's newest and biggest pioneering projects the Elldon Dam. in the mountain region of South-easter-n Australia.

There are some 350,000 acres of Spencer soil in the area shallow, fertile loam with the topsoil only six to eight Inches deep over hard-pa- n clay and unproductive subsoil. As the farmers kept cropping this thin cover of soil, the fields played out. When the dry weather hit in 1948 and again in 1949, most of the dairymen had to buy hay and commercial feeds by the ton. Too often their fields did not produce grass or grain to carry them through the winter. Bankers Take Notice Having to import hay at $30 to $45 a ton had the dairy farmers hanging on the ropes financially. Then, the bankers took notice. Because there was ample evidence that the fault was human and not nature's, extension agents and the bankers met and agreed to loan a farmer funds enough to over haul his land with no payment on principal for two years and 2 per cent interest The loans are ear marked for lime and fertilizer purchase. Accurate soil tests were made to determine the needs of the different farms. Agreements were signed by the farmers to follow an approved rotation practice. Lime Is Used Then, commercial trucks equip ped with spreaders began hauling tons of lime and fertilizers to de pleted pastures and hayfields, re building the worn land for grass and legumes. The cost Is running as much as $30 to $40 an acre, almost as much as the land cost originally. County agents report four to six tons of lime is being spread per acre and from 700 to 900 pounds of high tension fertilizer. Half is spread to be plowed under and the other half spread on the topsoil and worked into the land. After this treatment the land is reseeded with alfalfa and clover. This year, spurred along by an abundance of rain, many of the Spencer loam farms are again rich with hay and grass. The area is again becoming known as the "cloverland of the state." The program is one of, the big gest land overhauling jobs ever tackled in Wisconsin, soil conser vation officials report. And it again demonstrates what can be accomplished with cooperation between the small town and the farmer. Connecticut Town Is Subject of Experiment GRANBY, Conn. Something new in Connecticut landscape projects took place in Granby recently. For the first time in state history, 20 buildings in a typical Connecticut town were newly planted in a cooperative project by five nurseries. The event heralded Plant Con necticut Week. Work began at 9 a.m. and required a crew of 40 men for a full day. Good topsoil was hauled In by. truck. The project was directed by Owen S. Trask, extension horticulturist for the College of Agriculture at the University of Connecticut "We hope to show other Con necticut towns how they can become mere attractive with trees, shrubs and plants," Trask said. "An at tractive community means better living, better business, and greater civic pride. Home owners of the community were urged to participate in the week by cleaning up, painting up. and planting shrubs around ' their homes. Lucky Michigan Family Returns to Normal Life ADRIAN. Mich. The M. D. Swenks have returned to a normal life here in their modest new home after a fabulous vacation experi- ence. Mr. Swenk, an accountant and church soloist and his wife, who teaches grade school here, and their daughter, Susan Lee, , drove) to New Yerk on a vacation trip just as millions of other people da each year. But the reception they got was more like the kind staged for the biggest celebrities. It all started when the Swenks, arriving in Manhattan, visited the RCA Exhibition Hall in Rockefeller Center and Susan Lee became the 5,000,000th person to walk into the display of electronic devices there. That apparently, touched a magic button, for suddenly the Swenks found themselves being handed a television set. a record play-e- r and stacks of records, and a flock of other girts including tickets to Broadway staga plays and dates at some of New York's most famous restaurants. Furthermore, the me thing they'd most wanted to do in New York was see a television show, and RCA president Frank Folsom saw to tt that they actually appeared oa several TV and radio shows, on ona of which they copped a cash prize I INVEST.
