Safety Council Warns 420 Traffic Deaths I Labor Day Total Will Be Lowest Since 1954 United Press International The nation heads into its last big family fling of the summer, the Labor Day holiday, this weekend with a warning thht about lone person per 105.000 cars rnay jbe marked for death on the highways. The National Safety Council has) estimated as many as 420 persons | may be killed in traffic,, during the | three-day vacation which begins i tonight at 6 p.m. and ends at midnight Monday. About 45 million cars will crowd streets and highways over thu holiday. In addition to the traffic death toll, the holiday also will see an estimated 12.000 persons suffer disabling injuries, the council said. If motorists ‘'hold” the toll to , 420 killed, it would be the lowest Labor Day holiday figure since j 1954 when 368 persons died in! [traffic. Last year. United Press [lnternational counted 443'persons j killed on the highways. Underlining the ■ seriousness of [the anticipated highway ..carnage Jis the all-out mobilization of police and safety officials in an effort to keep the toll to a minimum. There will be no vacation for most of the country's police officers and in many states National Guardsmen have been ordered out to beef up state and city police! units. Illinois officials have issued a j “Traffic Condition Red” alert for the holiday, aimed at warning mo-| torists of highway hazards. The [ state’s 1.100-man, state police force and three air patrols have been [ordered out to crackdown on Ispeedets, drunk drivers and traffic violators. In lowa, state officials have asked 10,000 clergymen to make [ [this Sunday “Traffic Safety Siin- [ day” by stressing from the pulpit [“the individual's moral responsi-[ 1 bility for safe driving.” The council said its estimate of [ 420 fatalties compares with a i normal toll of 350 deaths during a [ similar non-holiday period at this , [time of year. | Trade in a good town — Decatui

IZ, uai Bible Material: Proverbs 23:2»-35: Daniel 1:1-20: Habakkuk 2:9-16; Romans 13:11—14:21 Derations] Readier: Isaiah 5:11-21 Is It Fair? Izwson for August 31, 1958 rpVEN the people who talk most about social justice are often silent about one thing which readers of the Bible will find plainly there: the drink problem. It should be remembered that whiskey was invented long after Bible times. AH the warnings about strong drink,

Dr. Foreman

in the Bible, are about wine and the equivalent of beer, the "lighter" liquors. The passage from Proverbs gives a vivid picture of personal trouble caused by such liquors. Daniel

gives the story of the first totalabstinence society on record, an outstanding success on a health basis. Habakkuk the prophet lines up "giving his neighbor drink” right along with stealing and murder. Paul puts the whole thing in a new light: the truth of Christian brotherhood. Ask A Modern-Day Question! It Is Fair? AU of which raises the same question, in various ways. Isn’t the use of liquor, as it Is done in the United States ip this 20th century, a very obvious example of social Injustice? Social justice, we may remember, is just carrying into all relationships the spirit and principle of the Golden Rule. It is being fair to aU concerned. But is it fair to give a lame person a shove? Is it fair to put a stumbling block in front of the blind? Alcoholics are called "sick" and alcoholism a disease. But it is a sacs that it rinks fourth in all the diseases of our nation. Alcoholism would never get a start without the background of social drinking. No drug used by “addicts” gets nearly as many people into trouble as does alcohoL Is it fair to give the weak as much of a push downhill as American society does? Policeman's Friday Nicbt Offers Insight Into Problem A young minister spent his Friday nights, one summer, riding around with policemen in squad cars. With very few exceptions, the calls for help were due to drink. Family quarrels, thefts (to get money for liquor), beatings, rapes, and murders: all starting from a [ few friendly drinks. This young I man came to the conclusion that the money put into that city’s treasury by liquor licenses was more than matched by the money taken out of treasury and private funds to pay for the damage the liquor creates. It is true, that city claims to be the "whiskey capital of America;” but the reader is invited to look around in his own town and figure the cost to the taxpayers of troubles caused by alcohol. Is it fair? Movie Make-Believe Palate Problem in Wrong Color Movies sometimes do the same kind of harm. Some years ago there was a popular series of movies featuring a husband and wife who were married both on the screen and off. In all their pictures they were a gay, happy couple. He drank "like a fish" and. she drank with him and it never seemed to affect either of them. (How could it? Stage liquor is like stage money—a weak imitation of the real thing.) Not long after that, the papers reported that this actress had divorced her charming Prince Barleycorn. And for what? Doing in real life what he was paid to pretend doing in pictures: drink when he feM. like it. Reel life and real life were vastly different.
