Safety Program Renewed by Adams Widened rights of way are a major point in Indiana’s program of highway improvement for added motoriftg safety, James D. Adams chairman of the State Highway Commission, asserted during one of the sessions of the American Association of State Highway Officials convention at San Francisco recently.

In Indiana, he said, we feel that the greatest contribution to motoring safety during the past three years Las been widening the rights of way of 1,800 miles of state highways to 100 feet on primary roads and to 80 feet on secondary roads. This makes it possible to extend the shoulders to

widen ct}lverts and tc build shallow gide ditches.

Indiana Uas expended miilions of dollars in tie elimination of curves which were tno sharp .or modern speeds and in the improvem=nt of sight distarzes to meet charvuging needs. Ip the past twc year: our state has spent more than $83,000 to reflectorize signs to a3k curves, highway inielrsections and the inside limits of bridge handrails. B'i: it’s money well spent. So is the $60,000 or more that we spend ~ach year to mark centerlines on our state highways.

~ In tbe past four years the highway commission has constructed or has unéder contract for constraction sixtyone ruilroad grade crossinz eliminations—more than were buil. in the all time history of the State High-

way Commission prior to fcur ycars ago.

Indiana ha sembarked upon an extensive program of divided lane highways op the more heavily traveled routes.

Tlruring the past four years Indiana has widened more than thrwce thausand small bridges and narrew culverts on the state highway syi‘em but t*2 more costlywork remains to be done. More than 1,900 bridges and culverts are too narrow and must be widened but their moderrization or replacement will cost hetween iwenty five and thirty million dollars.

Obituary of Cora May Krippner Cora May Daniels the youngest of a family of six children, was borp in Elkhart township to John and Susan Daniels, on November 18, 1873 and peacefully departed this life at Lkeside hospital Kendallville Indiana after an illness of seven weeks on December 26, 1936. She has been preceded in death by the parents, and Mary Francis who passed away at the age of three years, Sophia who passed at {the age of six months, and EEH‘E%Daniels Holey, who departed this life on July 9, 1922 at the age or%né-\one vears and six months. : :

Her entire life was spent in the community of her birth. On May 11 1897, she was united in marriaze tu Charles Krippner who precedei her in death on July 11 1936. To this union were borp two sons one surviving only a few days and Keith, of Wawaka.

For considerable number of years she has been a memhber of the Wawaka church of the Brethren. She took much pirde in making croche:ied rugs for the Aid Society.

She leaves one son Keith of Wawaka, one grandson Robert Krippneg one sister, Mrs. Hattie Auspaugh of Albion, one brother Henry Daniels of Cosperville and a number of nieces and nephews. To the writer, a quotation from ‘Whittier's ‘‘Snowbound” seems appropriate: ’

“I walk to meet the night that soon Shall shape and shadow overflow I cannot feel that thou art far, Since near at need the angels are; And when the sunset gates unbar, Shall I pot see the waiting stand, And, while against the evening star, The welcome of thy beckoning raud”

Warn Against Flu Epidemic

Precautions to be taken against a current outbreak of respiratory infections which in many cases have developed into influenza and pneumonia were outlined by health author ities. . .

Some of the suggestions sound like the warnings mother give to children—but their effectiveness can not be questioned. For instance: Keep your feet dry, your body well clother and get plenty of fresh air. Sudden changes of temperature without adequate protection also should be avoided. In other words, if you are leaving the warmth of & household be sure you wear sufficient clothing when you step into the winter weather.. It may look manly to bear your breast to the breezes, but you may be baring it for a stetho scope later. g As for bedrooms ‘it’s better to have fresh air and adequate bed clothing rather than closed windows and com plete protection from the cold.

File State Gross Income Tax [Citizens and corporaitions in all sections of Indiana whose income during 1936 amounted to more thac $l,OOO began filing annual state gross income tax returns. :

It was estimated by gross income tex officials that before the taxpaying period ends January 30, between 375,000 and 400,000 returns will have been filed. This estimate compares with 350,000 returns filed last year and 302,000 filed in 1934. Great advances made in all lines of business were expected to swell not only the pumber of returns but also the volume of revenue.

As the new annual period opened it was revealed that gross income tax collections during the twelve-month periog which ended December 31 amounted to $18,060,808.36 - crease of 23.3 percent over collections in the same period in 1935. Included in collections up to Deecember 31 were tax payments which accompanied 1935 annual returas, filed in January of 1936 and quarterly tax payments for the first three quarters of 1936.

SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF MESSAGE

Your Yask and mine is not ending with the end of the depression.

The statute of NRA has been outlawed. The problems hav: not.

Sober second -‘thought confirms most of us in the belief that the broad objectives of the Narional Recovery act were sound.

The vital need is not an alteration of our fundamental law, but .un increasingly enlightened view with reference to it.

The judicial braneh is asked. by the people to do its part in making democracy successful.

The process of our democracy must rot be imperilled by the denial of essential powers of free government.

Experience with actualities makes it clear that federal laws:supplement ing state laws are needed to help solve the problems which result fiom modern igyention applied in an industrialized nation which conducts its business with scant regard to state lines. i

. Overproduction, = underprcduction and speculation are.thres. evil :sisters who gdistill the troubles of unsound inflation and disastrous = deflation. ;

The masses of .the peoples: of all the Americas are convinced that the democratic form of government e¢an be made to succeed and do npt wish to substitute for it any other form of government. '

Tn oligarchies, militarism has kept forward, while in those nations which have retained democracy militarism, has waned.

The inter-American conference, operating on the fundamental. principles of democracy, did mueh te - assure peace-jn this -hemisphere,.

I shall shortly: address. the congress more fully in regard to modernizjug and improving the executive /bramch of the government. ”

Many millions: of : Americans still live in habitations which not only fail to provide.the physical benefits: of moderp eivilization but breed disease and impair the health of futuregenerations.

Many thousands of tenant farmers —indeed most of them-—with some financial assistance and with some. advice and training, can be made self-supporting on land which ecam eventually belong : to: them. 3

Holiday Celebration Brings Death

In the wake of the wildest New Year’s celebration since the depression bgan, the nation watched the ‘holiday’s violent death toll pass the 200 mark. Uniteq Press reports from 30. states and the District of Columbia showed at least 223 deaths in accidents, murders and suicides. An‘other dozen states reported no fatalities.

These and the deaths of others critically injured were expected to send the final toll beyong 250 and poseibly 300. The death list was about 100 below that of the Christmas Rhplidays. “. Approximately - thre-fourths of ‘the deaths occurred in automobile ‘accidents. Added to these were a. gcattering of suicides, explosions, }flm and murders, many of them con-

Autos In 1936 Killed 35,708

A tragic estimate that 35,708 persons lost their lives in automobile accidents in the United States in 1936 comes from the government’s accident prevention conference. The conference found some solace in the fact that this year’s total was 353 less than in 1935. i California had the greatest increase, from 2,787 last year to 3,050 this year. New York led in de-

creases—from 2,997 to 2,600. The conference said that the d=crease in New York ‘was attributed largely to the emactment and strict enforcement of laws against reckless driving and speeding.” " ‘The following comparative table was reported by the conference: Indiana had 1,338 fataiities in 11 months of 1936 as compared with 1,208 for a corresponding period in 1335.

Indiana ranks ninth among states in the number of applications filed for federal old age retirement benefits, H .L. McCarthy social security board regional director announced.
