DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT Published Every Evening Except Sunday by THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT CO., INC. Sterad at the Decatur, lad.. Port Office aa Second data Matter Dtek D. HeDer, Jr President John G. Heller Vice-President Okas. Holtbouse -Secretary-Treasurer A Typical Case The Rev. Wilbur V. Day of Wabash was granted a disability retirement Saturday by the Methodist church* He was the pastor of the First Methodist church in Wabash for the past three years. Rev, Day was a passenger in a car involved in a wreck Nov. 4, 1960. The driver of the other car was intoxicated. Rev. Day suffered a brain concussion, a broken hip, crushed ankle, and several 1 other injuries. The driver responsible for the accident near Marion received-a 30-day sentence, 28 of which were suspended, » |IOO fine, and his license revoked for a year. Rev. Day was hospitalized four months in Indian-, •polls, and is presently at home. He will be retired at • least one year on the advice of his physician. This no t an unusual case. A couple of years ago a man who was a leader in the national movement against drunken driving was headed north from Florida to South Bend, to take his two sons back to college. A drunken driver hit his car headon, killing the man, his wife, one son, and leaving the second son critically injured. Each year 40,000 men, women, and children die needlessly in auto accidents. The cause of these accidents is nearly always the same — carelessness, misjudging, drinking, late hours. None of these can rightfully be called “accidents.” It is no accident to allow yourself to become an unsafe driver. A man who would steal a dollar has commited robbery or theft, and is considered a criminal. How much more a criminal is the driver who robs ethers of their very lives, health, and position? Every year, right here in Adams county, thoughtless people, young and old, rob themselves and others by their own thoughtless, heedless driving. Poor driving starts with the development of bad driving habits. Speed, fast turns, noise — all of these are symptoms of a growing disdain for the other fellow. Turning a corner fast, squealing the wheels, may seem “smart” to the inexperienced driver. But what about the boy on a bicycle who comes darting along, off the curb, into the street? How about the tiny old lady struggling along the crossing? These people may not be able to get out of the way; Drag racing is a good example of the machine driving the boy. Racing is meant for special tracks, not for public highways in America. It is strictly illegal, and for good reason. Yet youngsters are incapable of realizing these dangers, not having experienced them personally. And many do not live to benefit from the personal experience. Os course every driver is entitled to a few mistakes. But when the mistakes are made away of life, a driving habit, this can only lead to trouble, pain, and death. The number of bad accidents in Adams county has been on the increase. It’s past time for parents and drivers to clamp down on the use of autos. editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Fair, Mild Weather Forecast For Slate By United Press International Fair and mild weather was forecast , for all of Indiana for the Memorial Day holiday Tuesday, a cheerful prediction for 500-mile Indianapolis auto race fans and picnickers. A smattering of showers may fall over the state today, but they were due to end long before an estimated 200,000 race fans assemble at Indianapolis for the 50th annual race and before the bulk of 4ft million Hoosiers celebrate the season’s first holiday at picnics and outings. Despite the fair and mild prediction, temperatures will be 3 to 10 degrees below normal for this time of year. Highs near 70 were expected all around the state in the afternoon, but at the time dawn breaks the mercury may be in the chilly 40s. The fair- weather holiday will represent a one-day break between showers. More rain was due Wednesday and again Friday and possibly Saturday, according to the five-clay outlook which indicated one-third to one-half inch of precipitation in the north and one-h#if to an inch central and south. B Temperatures this week will average 3 to 4 degrees above normal north and about normal central and south. The mercury fell into the 40s over Indiana early Sunday, including a chilly 43 at Evansville and Indianapolis. Highs Sunday ranged from 68 at Lafayette to 76 at Evansville. Lows this morning were considerably warmer, ranging from 52 at South Bend to 60 at Evansville. Rainfall for the 24-hour period ending at 7 a.m. today included .06 at Indianapolis, .04 at Cincinnati and .03 at Lafayette. Highs today will range from 64 to 73, lows tonight from 42 to 59.
