Design For Safety Auto Made Public Cornell Laboratory Develops Design NEW YORK (UP) —Design of a new “safety automobile” which it is believed could hold its passengers safely in a 50-mile-an-hour head-on collision, was made public here today. The design was developed by the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory at Buffalo, N. Y., under sponsorship of the Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. The design substitutes two push-and-pull levers for the steering wheel, provides six unconventionally arranged individual seats into which driver and passengers are securely strapped and eliminates interior projections against which they could be thrown in case of collision. The design is incorporated into a conventional auto body—a 1955 Ford four-door-sedan — and one model is being built. The driver is seated in the center of the auto’s front before the steering mechanism which is incorporated in a rigid harness which locks him into his seat. There is a well-padded cushion to catch him should his upper body be thrown forward by impact There is one passenger seat at each side of the driver, slightly lower and a little behind him. Each is equipper with a harness similar to the driver’s. ’ln back there is one seat which faces to the rear, back to back with the driver’s. Two seats face forward at either side of the rear. These three seats are equipped with conventional safety belts. Cornell scientists said they believed passengers in the car coulS “walk away” after a head-on collision at 50 miles an hour. E. R. Dye, in charge of the four years of studies which led to the design, said that with proper auto safety precautions “the injury and death rate might be decreased by as much as 50 percent.” — — Ankle Injured On School Playground Patty Beal, 12-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Beal of this city, sustained an injury to her left ankle In a mishap on the St. Joseph’s Catholic school playground Monday.

Joe Martin Defends Convention Tactics Accuses Stevenson Os 'Phony Issue' WASHINGTON (UP) — House Republican leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass) has accused Adlai E. Stevenson of trying to raise a "phony issue” over the Joe Smith incident. As ehairman of the Republican convention in Saw Francisco, Martin sduelcheil an attempt by Terry Carpenter, a Nebraska delegate, to nominate the unknown Joe Smith for vice president. Carpenter said later he was trying to show that the Republicans were running an "open” convention., Martin told reporters Monday that he had no regerts about “ordering Joe Smith out of the con-, vention hall.” He said he was sure bis handling of the incident would not cost the GOP the votes of any Smiths named Joe. “The Republican Joe Smiths will vote Republican and the Democratic Joe Smiths will vote Democratic," he said. But the Democrats have been playing up the issue. Stevenson showed a film of this phase of the GOP convention during a television speech last week. Martin said Carpenter actually intended to nominate interior secretary Fred A. Seaton, who had asked that his name not to placed before the convention. He said Carpenter "knew I had him cornered" and "I knew that Joe Smith was a phony.” He denied he took away any of the delegate's rights.
