The three cooperating organizay tions are the Highway Safety Committee, an organization of automotive and allied industries, the National Committee for Traffic Safety, and the National Safety Council. The real solution to the highway safety problem lies in the mind of the individual, said W. F. Hufstader, chairman of the Highway Safety Com. mittee. And we must reach the individuals mind while he is at the wheel of his car. To reach drivers in their travel environment more than in their d social or home environment, the campaign plans to climb into the drivers seat. The practical action to translate such goals into action can be taken by Utahns in cooperating in the program of the Golden Rule Club, the Utah Safety Council suggested. Appropriate dashboard stickers and pledge cards are available through that organization to anyone desiring them. More than anything else needed in Utah is a return to the traditional hospitality and courtesy for which the West is supposed to be noted, said G.

The person who drives by the golden rule will never have a serious accident, said Ned H. Dearborn, president of the National Safety Council. Safe driving is a moral responsibility and a daily demonstration of decent and moral conduct. That concept of moral responsibility is embodied in the code of the road, which asks every motorist to 1. Share the road by driving in the proper lane. 2. Allow ample clearance when passing. 3. Yield the right of way to other drivers and pedestrians. 4. Give proper signals for turns and stops. 3. Dim his headlights when meeting or following vehicles. 6. Respect traffic laws, signs, signals and 7. Adjust his driving to road, traffic and weather conditions.

There is some pessimistic talk today in regard to future business conditions, but it is not shared by Union Pacific. Stoddard declared. He pointed out that U.P. placed its order for the City of Salina in 11 33, a depression year, and has continued to order equipment in large quantities ever since. That the companys optimism hasnt lessened is indicated by a $33,700,410 order for 203 diesel locomotive units with which U. P. closed out 1033. Stoddard said that dating from the City of Salina order, Union Pacific has purchased 43,308 freight cars, 438 passenger train cars, 948 diesel locomotive units, 210 steam locomotives and 23 gas turbine electric locomotives.

Jy Joe Marsh Handy and Easy 'Sign Up' Last months safety drive was a big success almost. Every one helped the schools ran movies on safe driving, Rotary put up posters, and Handy and Easy Peters went out on their own. The boys put up a big sign by the side of the highway. It said, Slow down the life you save may be your own. It was a good idea after the police moved the sign back twelve feet. In their enthusiasm Handy and Easy put it too close to the road in fact, right on the sharpest curve on the highway. They made driving unsafe by cutting off the view around the curve. From where I sit, lots of people-even though they mean well suffer from now and again. For instance, some can never see any further than their own preferences. They even go so far as to object to my choice of a glass of beer with supper.
