Show December 5, 1953 THE JOURNAL Utah Saicty Council New President of motorists who have no right whatsoever to drive on Utahs streets and highways are menacing the lives and limbs of Utahns, according to jstudies just completed by the Utah Department of Public Safety and the Utah Safety Council. This fact was glaringly revealed in the records of suspended and revoked drivers licenses, and par-- j j ticularly the records of those per-- J sons whose licenses were revoked for drunken driving, i 0 licenses were revoked for this offense, and ;U7 were convicted of drunken driv- ing who had no valid license to drive in the first place! The Utah Safety Council is shocked at the wanton dis-regard for the law and the equally selfish disregard for the safety and welfare of other people w'hich is exhibited by these suspended drivers, declared G. Ernest Bourne, executive secretary of the Utah s Safety Council. The safety council noted the increased emphasis being directed towards the Driver Improvement Program of the Drivers License Division of the State Department of Public Safety. This division is diligently following through with the statutory directives which require suspension or revoking of a f license for specific offenses or series of offenses. Not only is the driving privilege lifted but the names of such offenders are sent out regu-- 1 larly to all police authorities and courts throughout the state. For the first nine months of this year, 2,095 names have been recorded and sent out, compared with 2,4 SS for the entire year of 1052. This long list of names, distressing as it is, reflects the thorough scrutiny and attention directed towards individual driving records by the Drivers License Division. It is part of this divisions general program which recently received acclaim from the National 1age be MC at Will House Without Nails? Annual Banquet LAYTON' Anderson. Hundreds II.

But apparently, in the safety councils opinion, much yet remains to be done in this respect. But it is not only the drunken drivers who constitute this men-- 1 ace.

Kitchen (bottom) has all the advantages of the most modern American Ilouse-on-whee- ls home. Have you ever heard of a home whose wooden framework was constructed without the use of nails for structural strength? Thats exactly whats happening in the field. Now on the market is an auto house-on-whee- ls trailer home which outlaws the nail as a strength factor; uses in- stead what is known as dialectric wood welding. A synthetic glue, made of chemicals and known as Urac, makes a joint that is actually stronger than the wood itself; incomparably stronger than a nailed joint. The glue makes a uniform bond between all structural wood contacting surfaces, whereas a nail joins two pieces of lumber together all-ov- er only at the point where its driven in. Trailer homes must undergo tremendous stresses and strains when on the move quick stops, sharp curves, etc. Nailed frameworks have had a hard time bearing these strains without serious distortion; synthetic frames take them in stride. The manufacturer, Anderson Coach Company of East Tawas, Michigan, is so confident that its new trailer is the answer to safe, or vacacomfortable tion living on wheels that it is constructing a new plant to turn out its product in even greater numbers. resin-bonde- d year-roun- d y gift-wrappin- g, pro-holid- ay ' hit-ru- anti-soci- 1 -- al 1 ' AN EXPLANATION OF THE CATHOLIC RELIGION I A Course of Illustrated Lectures i to Be Held EACH MONDAY EVENING AT 1 1 s P. ; M.
