Show ' THE SALT LAKE TIMES Page Two FRIDAY, MAY 22, 1959 National Safety Council 1 Lists Night Driving Hints You're driving down a high-way at night. The bright lights of the oncoming car blind you. If you're smart you (a) coun-teract the effect of the other car's brights by flicking on your own, (b) speed up so you can get past the other car quicker, (c) slow down and keep your eyes on the right side of the road. If you picked "c" you're hep to the safer points of driving, the National Safety Council re-ports. And if you didn't? Well, see if you can't do better on the questions: 1. Good drivers know they should brake (a) before entering a curve, (b) on the curve. 2. It's advisable to slow down below the posted speed limit when (a) other traffic is whiz-zing past you, (b) it's raining, (c) a police car is behind you. 3. If the wheels of your car go off the right side of the road and onto a soft shoulder, you should (a) jerk the , wheel to the left before the tires have a chance to sink down in the soft ground, (b) hit the brakes to stop the care quickly, (c) take your fot off the gas pedal and wait till your car slows down before returning to the highway. 4. On a steep hill, before your car gains too much momentum, it's wise to (a) use your brakes so the car won't pick up too much speed, (b) shift into lower gear and use the motor for brak-ing, (c) pull your parking brake on periodically. Answers: 1. (a) Never brake on a curve, it causes a skid. Good drivers cut their speed enough before enter-ing a curve so they can accele-rate very, slightly as they round the curve. 2. (b) It's always smart to slow down below the posted speed limit in bad weather. Speed limits are set for normal, good weather conditions. 3. (c) Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel and your foot off the brake and accelerator until your car slows down. Then not before turn the wheel sharply toward the pavement. 4. (b) If you picked (a) you are a good bet to need some new brakes soon maybe when you most need to stop your car. Rid-ing the brakes in other words, braking constantly, on a hill is a sure way to burn them out. Parking brakes are for one pur-pose, parking. Use motor com-pression for downhill braking. deliind the JJeadiined It was almost exactly one year ago, on May 28, 1958, that this columnist disclosed for the first time that "Vice President Nix-on's political aides, pleased at the political dividends of his trip to South American, were urging Nixon to make a visit behind the Iron Curtani and a trip to Moscow ..." The possibility of a Moscow visit was first denied by the Vice President's office and later ad-mitted. However, then, a Nixon visit to Moscow was postponed by (1) the Congressional work load before its summer recess, 2) pressure for the Vice President to aid the 1958 GOP political campaign, 3) the French gov--' ernment crisis, 4) the crisis in Lebanon and Iraq, 5) the For--: mosan crisis and 6) the crisis of Berlin, in that order. Almost everything seemed to be con-spiring against the Nixon visit to Moscow. Now, however, President Ei-senhower has announced that the Vice President plans to go to Russia in July to officiate at the opening of the $5,000,000 American Exhibition at the So-viet Trade Fair. , In addition, President Eisen-hower has also indicated that he may ask Nixon to sit in for him occasionally during any pro-longed summit conference with Soviet Premier Krushchev. Politically, it is hard to imagine a better springboard for Nixon's presidential candidacy next year. This was so apparent that as soon as the possibility of a Nixon visit to Moscow loomed a year ago, a whole bevy of likely presi-dential candidates began study-ing the idea for themselves. Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota got the spotlight in a nine hour long tete-a-tet- e with Krushchev. Sen. Lyndon Johnson of Texas and John F. Kennedy of Massa-chusetts and Gov. Meyner of New Jersey and Rockefeller of New York are known to be itch-ing for the opportunity to make such a trip. For, despite some criticism of these "politcal pil-grimages" to Moscow, everyone knows the politcal dividends and pitfalls of aSoviet trek and likely gabf est with Nikita, which is supposed to spot light a presi-dential candidate's international stature. To be fair about it, these ex-cursions also give our political leaders an opportunity to probe Nikita and keep him busy. But like Prime Minister Macmillan's recent visit to Moscow, our own political travelers are not un-mindful of the dividends Nikita can bestow. The key to how Krushchev will figure in the 1960 presidential campaign lies, of course, in the Geneva Foreign Ministers con-ference. If the talks collapse, there are no summit meetings, and the Russian bear growls once more, few would be anxious to touch Krushchev with a ten-mi- le pole. But . if the Geneva Foreign Ministers talks succeed and a new Spirit of Geneva leads to summit talks, the rush will be on to bask in the Soviet spot-light. Even in the unlikely event the talks should collapse, there is a possibility that "we may be forced into summit talks regard-less." And it is this possibility that is fomenting a curious spate of glo-bal lobbying by Chambers of Commerce seeking to host any summit negotiations. We've already seen where Ge-neva, Berlin, Warsaw, Vienna, Quebec, Ottawa and Rome have let it be know that they would like to host such talks. The UN is also in there pitching, too. And in the U. S. New York City is urging that any summit talks be held at UN headquarters in New York instead of Geneva's UN site again. New York's GOP Senator Keating is spreading the word around Washington about New York. But Senator Bridges of New Hampshire is plugging for Bretton Woods, N.H., site of the 1944 World Monetary Con-ference. The word is also being put in for Washington, D.C., Salt Lake City and Miami. Atlantic City has filed an "unofficial FBI re- - port" with the State Dept. plug-ging the Jersey resort as "one of the few Eastern cities that can be made almost security proof." But San Francisco, city of the Golden Gate is unmistakably ahead in the summit site sweep stakes sweeping the leading cities of the world. Vice President Nixon is plug-ging hardest in Washington, at least, for whatever summitry that comes out of Geneva to be held on his home grounds. If no decision on a site is made by the time of Nixon's Moscow visit he is expected to personally urge it on Krushchev during his visit to Moscow, or announce agreement on San Francisco, while he is there if no announcement has been made before. Ironically, Nixon's long time foe, Harold Stassen, is also lob-bying hard for Philadelphia. He is seeking a comeback for mayor against Democratic Mayor Dil-wort- h, who is running for re-election. Stassen is urging Dil-wor- th to join him in a bipartisan bid for summit talks to be held near Independence Hall. This is pitting Stassen against Nixon again. For at the same time the Vice President is ac-tively lobbying for San Fran-cisco, Stassen is also urging Philadelphia on the many UN and world diplomats he counts among his personal friends. Mr. Stassen realizes that if he pulls it off, the spotlight of a summit conference may win his election as Mayor this November. But the man who unsuccessful-ly opposed Nixon's renomination at the Republican convention in 1956 is running into a tendency for San Francisco almost every-where he turns. Politics is never easy.
