milci per hour or less. According to this concept, however, one must think not in terms of miles per hour but in terms of Danger Units. At 25 m p h. you carry in your car one Danger Unit—the shock limit of the human body. At 25 m.p.h., in cart of a bad skid, your car is carrying enough energy to make it roll over once. You'd probably escape, injured but alive. At 25 m.p.h. you can bring your ear to a stop in one street width--35 to 40 feet. At 25 m.ph. you car make a tum in a radius of 60 feet.

Mr. Roosevelt, Farley said It would be "futile for me to comment on the Into Democratic nomination until the President expresses himself." “The newspapers are devoting a lot of space to my .future, but I wouldn't talk about it myself," he added. Farley picked Republican possibilities in this order; Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan, Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio and district-attorney Thomas E. Dewey of New York. "Hut it makes no difference to us who the Republicans nominate because we will beat them on the ucompHshmenta of the administration," Farley said. Complaint Is Filed With Review Board Only one complaint has been received by the county board of revi. w at a late hour this afternoon. Ihe board was to keep the office open until 4 p. in. to rec:-!ve any more complaints that might be made. To date only two complaints have Is-en received. The other complaint was registered hom Washington township. Today was the last day for residents to register objections. 'O'"* * Trade in a Good Town —Decatur.

Now Danger Units do not increase in direct ratio to speed increase. Wo look at danger as the partner of speed, but the two are not synonymous. When you double your speed you quadruple the danger: when you treble your speed you multiply the danger by nine. Thus . .. At 50 m p h. you carry four Danger Units—four times the shock limit of the human body. At 50 m.p.h.. in case of a bad skid, your car Is carrying enough energy to make it roll over four times. You'd have to be lucky to alive. At 30 tn p h. it will tike a dis-

WINDSOR MB RETURN HUME London Newspaper Says Duke, Duchess To Move To Enaland London. June 27 — ((J.P) — The i Evening Standard reported today that the Duke and Duchess of | Windsor would oome to England to live In October. The Standard said the Duke tor some time has decided to give up hie fight to have the duchess recognised as "her royal highness" I which the British government refused to grant to the American born Wallis Warfield Simpson. The duke's attitude on royal n-cognltlon ba. l>*eu the chief barrier to a visit by the couple to England. The paper said It is possible the two will visit the United Slates next year. Regarding residence In England, the Evening Ntandard said: "There la no question of their obtaining permission. As British citlsecs, the duke aud duchess are I free to come and go as they I please.” .An otic lai In court circles told the United Press: "We have nothing whatever to I support the report that the duke . and duchess of Windsor are re-1 turning to England If I were you. 11 would treat the report with reI serve at the moment.” I I Informants dose to court cir-| J dag, while unable to confirm thal 'the duke has relinquished his in .I sistetice on the title for his duch I ess. reported that the former mon -I ( arch's attitude toward the title! , may eventually be decided by the attitude of court circles toward I the former Wallis Wartleld. There have been recent Indica-1 tk»ns of a more friendly altitude' ’ In court circles toward the duch- i 1 <-ss. These circles have been. It ’ was said. Impressed by her "con-1 alstently dignified manner" and I > the way she has been "sticking . by the duke." ■ The same informants said that | . the royal party had undoubtedly! | bam given an impresahm during! .Informal conversations in Aim-ri-| ca that the return of the duke and | duchess to England would please I | Americans.

tancc equal to four street widths to bring your car to a stop. At 50 m.p.h. your turning radius has multiplied from 80 feet to 320 feet Following this simple concept, we see that we can accelerate to a speed of 25 miles per hour before accumulating one whole unit of danger. Beyond that speed, the , D.U.s grow by leaps and bounds. Between 25 and 45 we add additional units at a rate of one for each 10 miles of increase in speed, and when we exceed 45 we pile up Dlls at the rate of one for each five miles of increased speed. Our speedometers don’t tell us the truth. The distance between 35 ( and 45 miles an hour is just the same as that between 45 and 55. Yet we are plunging into danger twice as fast between 45 and 55 as we were between 35 and 45. A new type of speedometer, which illustrates these truths, is, therefore, provided for in this Interesting concept The driver who understands this new concept will forget that the word speed exists, since it doesn't mean much anyway in terms of safety. Instead, he will think in terms of Danger Units, human shock limits, roll-overs, tumability, and street-widths—meaning-ful mental images which tell him something. When he drives on slippery pavements he will say to himself: "Take it easy, son, you’ve got three roll-overs riding with you." As he approaches a curve ho will think: "Have I enough turnability to make this curve? I’d better slow down and be sure.” He will approach each intersection with the thought: “Am I carrying too many D.U.s? Can I stop within two street-widths if necessary?" And his mind, already trained to recognize the perils of pink toothbrush, halitosis, dangerous throat irritations, fatigue acids and a host of other ailments di amatifpd by the ad-wrltcrs. ought to be in a receptive mood for one more slogan—••lt's that extra D U that gets you'”
