Will the 216 number apply when I enter the pool in 1973 or v.ill that ytars cumber control? 0N17 NUMBER the pool thoe available for as part of the 1970 first priority group. Q: If local boaid must select three men to fill a call today for fie. all of whom have the same birthday, which three would they take? A: Ir the evvr.t that two or more men have the same birthdate within a local board, their sequence of induction will be determined by the first letter of their names (last name and. if necessary, first name) which have been in a random sequence of the alphabet e tablished during the drawing that was conducted Dec. 1. of induction arranged A: The random sequence cumber you acquired in the December 1569 drawing will apply so long as you remain subject to induction for military service. Q: Presently I am in Class HA but tius deferment will expire Feb. 28, 1970. I have number 306 from the lottery. I rill become 26 on May 1, 1970. If the local board does not reach my number before my 26th birthday, what will my str.tus be? A: If the local board has not reached your number before your 26th birthday, you will, upon reaching age 26, leave 1969.

A : You are liable for induction to age 26 or to age 35 if vou ate or have been de-erred. In 1971 you will have a decreased vulnerability. However, if the calls for manpower in 1971 are so high that they cannot be met by the 1971 selection group the local Accident Rate Lower On interstate Roads Copley News Service Miles traveled per gallon of fuel consumed, w hich had re- Interstate ; 'roads produced a lower ratio .of traffic accidents to miles traveled during 1959, according to Secretary of Transportation John A. Volpe. Yolpe made the announcement in a repo.t that listed motor vehicle travel in the United States for the year at 1.060 billion vehicle-mile- s, an increase of 4.3 per cent over the 1,016 billion traveled in mained fairly stable at 12.47 to 12.49 from 1963 through 1966, dropped to 12.38 in 1967 and 12.25 in 1968. The differences in miles traveled per gallon were attributed to several factors. One was the increasing proportion of new cars with power steering, power brakes and air conditioning. These items, as well as the new emission control devices, tend to place additional demands on engines. Speed studies have shown that average speeds are increasing, too, adding to the amount of fuel consumed. -- 1968. TAKE COMFORT The increase in miles traveled relates in an important degree to the miles added to tne interstate highway system this year, Volpe said. We can take some comfort from the fact that this portion of the nations total highway svs- tern produces a relatively low ratio of accidents to miles traveled. But its not enough to cite favorable acciIncreasingly dent ratios. We must intensify our efforts to reduce Die total number of highway accidents and fatalities. Statistics kept by the department show that the inter- . state system has Uen effee- tive in the reduction of acd- - dents and fatalities.
