of tho Bureau of Traffic Safety 

said today that this represented 

a {ratifying saving of 13 lives 

over the corresponding week of 

last year. With four death-free 

days and no pedestrian fatalities 

last week was the second best 

week of 1964 as far as lile-savtng 

vat concerned. The" 10 victims 

— seven drivers and'three 

passengers — brought the 1964 

total to date to 461 as again*; 

491 ^ the 1953 period. 

"Prom Monday to Thursday 

the totality slate was kept clean. 

What caused the let-down in

and the failure of some driven 

to keep in mind the ordinary 

safe and courteous rules of the 

road when 10 person* gave their 

lives?" the Director asked.

Don't Try to Put Too Much in Your Picture 

PVERYBODY loves a vacation. 

*-* But what about the long year 

after the vacation U paat? One of 

the best wayt to refresh our 

memories and relive the carefree 

days is with picture*—with pictures 

we took during those magieal 

two weeks. 

One thing picture takers ought 

to' remember, however, is that 

wll*n you go to different places, 

jrott*f* pointing your eameras at 

different taing*~-and often under 

different conditions. When you go 

on a vacation, you expand your 

vJewd by seeing new,placet, new 

tights, new scenes. When you 

sight the camera you i -e taking 

pictures in a different vein. 

Instead of the back yard, you 

are confronted with big vistaa of 

.other places—immense skies and 

And less landscapes. 

Magical as the most ordinary 

i modern camera is, it has Its limitations. 

You can't point a camera 

at the far horizon and expect to 

get a picture showing everything 

as far as the eye can see to left 

and right. For that matter, your 

•yes can't see everything, unless 

you turn your head. Remember 

that your camera will record only 

a* much as you can tee in the 

•*• .'.. 

viewflnder's frame at one time. 

What you can do to make * 

memorable picture U—pick the 

part of the landscape that look* 

best to you in the viewAnder. 

Concentrate on the big tree, or 

the curving hill, or the stream 

winding through the valley, or 

the bay in the shore line. If 

there's lust too much for one 

view, divide the scene. Take several 

abets, each 09* concentrating 

on one mala feature in Its 

own part of the laMacape. Then, 

when you come home, and gti 

back your prints from the photofinisher, 

you'll have something to 

show. 

The pictures will look as good 

to your friends as the scene dirt 

to you, because you selected the 

best parts to get on film. You can 

say, "There's the big tree I toM 

you about see how small the) 

house looks beneath if—or 

"Here's one of the shore ... theft | 

our cottage to the left of the 

middle." The pictures will be I 

scenes taken far away from home* 

but your friends will understand 

almost as well as if they had been 

there, too. In fact, nine out of ten 

may wish they had been.

"ALL AIR AND NO SUBSTANCE" 

Many were surprised at the action of the Hcuse in 

decisively voting down the highly controversial proposal 

for government reinsurance of the voluntary health insurance 

plans. Some sincerely felt that this was a blow to improving 

the ability of the American people to meet the 

financial exigencies of illness. 

The reason the House so acted was well described by 

Congressman Williams of Misssissippi, who said: "I took 

my youngster out to the park about two months ago, and 

she saw them selling cotton candy, all pink and pretty and 

inviting. Naturally, she had to have some. That cotton 

candy was pretty. It tasted sweet and smelled sweet, but 

when she tried to bite into it she found nothing there. This 

bill is like that cotton candy, all air and no substance, but 

costly." The purpose of the reinsurance idea was to 

, extend the benefits without increasing the cost to those 

[who have the protection. No one knows how great the 

|ultimate cost to the taxpayers would be, if this were to be 

jmplished on any appreciable scale. But one thing seems 

Brtain—it would lead to strong government domination 

;f the health insurance business, and to more and more 

government control, directly or indirectly, of medical practioe 

and facilities. That would be inevitable-—if government 

doea the paying, it doea the bossing too. 

The growth of health insurance in a relatively short 

period of time has been phenomenal. We have been given 

ever-improving coverage at a cost easily within the means 

of the majority of families. The Hcuse felt, and correctly, 

that there was no justification for government intervention 

in this field.. 

PARTNERS 

Medicine has a partner that few of us associate with 

the healing arts—the meat industry. 

That's because meat animals are the source of a long 

list of .extremely important medical products, and the meat 

industry has developed elborate facilities for saving them 

The best known of these products is undoubtedly 

sulin—the substance which has literally meant th^? diflference 

between life %nd death to vast numbers of simerers 

from diabetes. But there are others whose contribution to 

humanity is comparable. These include ACTH c 

sone, used in the treatment of arthritis, rheumatic itever 

and other dread diseases; liver extract, for treating pertiic 

ious anemia; bone marrow concentrate, used to alleviate 

various blood disorders; fibrin foam, which controls bl 

ing during operations; and dehydrocholic acid, used / in 

treating certain gall bladder disorders. There are many 

more. 

It is quite a job to save and proptrly process/ the 

animal by-products from which such medicines come. As an 

example, it takes the pancreas glands from 7,500 pigs or 

1,500 cattle to make a single ounce of insulin. But our highly-developed 

meat industry does that job in stride, day in 

and day out, and millions of people are the beneficiaries. 

MINE INSPECTION IS A STATE FUNCTION 

Recommendations which will materially change the 

organizational makeup of the Bureau of Mines haVe been 

approved and made public by Secretary of the Interior 

McKay. 

One of the most important of these .has to do with inspection 

of coal mines. It is observed "that the ultimate 

effectiveness of the safety program is dependent upon the 

cooperation of Federal and State inspection services, mine 

employes, and management.' The Bureau will now concentrate 

major effort on education work, with the purpose of 

bringing all state inspection services up to the Bureau's 

general standards. 

Interior's news release says that as this is accomplished 

"the need for Federal coal mlno Inspection will decrease 

and eventually cease to exist. Any part of the appropriation, 

not required for inspection should be used for educational 

work as needed. It appears this change in activity 

which is under way to a email degree, can be accelerated at 

the present time. This statement U bated on the fact that 

although there are fewer coal mines, fewer coal miners and 

less coal production today than at any time since Federal 

inspection was first required, there are currently more 

Federal inspectors than at any previous time." 

The new policy certainly seems all to the good. Mine 

inspection is primarily a state function and responsibility. 

Federal inspection is a duplication of effort. It is simply 

common sense—to say nothing of the taxpayers' interest 

in the matter—that the Federal government withdraw 

from this activity at the earliest possible time. 

WITH A CAPITAL B 

. The belief that it is high time and then some that our 

system of railroad regulating be thoroughly overhauled 

seems to be almost universally held by those who have 

objectively examined the question. And the reason for it 

is that regulatory policy was conceived in a vanished era, 

and is based on obsolete concepts. 

Writing in the Philadephia Bulletin, Ralph W. Page 

expressed this view: "Our machinery for regulating the 

railroads was provided when they were a monopoly—Now 

this segment of our economy is no longer a monopoly— 

On the countrary, the railroads face the fiercest kind of 

competition." t 

The San Francisco News recently made this comment: 

"Regulation of the railroads does seem overly severe. A 

railroad must go through so much red tape to get permission 

for a rate change that by the time it is granted—if it 

is—the conditions that led to the original request may have 

changed radically—Our railroads must be strong, if the 

nation is to be strong." 

At about the âme time, the head of U. S. Steel observed 

that, among other things, the rails are being "regulated 

to death." 

These opinions are typical. And they arise from a concern 

for the public interest—not just the railroads' interest. 

Last year the railroads handled 56.0? per cent of the 

total commercial intercity freight traffic—more than the 

trucks, waterways, pipe lines and air lines combined. They 

are the backbone of transportation with a capital B. So 

anything which puts artificial barriers in the way of railroad 

progress hurts us all. 

OUR DEPENDENCY ON SHIPPING 

Hanson W. Baldwin, military editor of the New York 

Times, is one of the country's leading authorities in his 

field. In*- a recent column he endorsed President Eisenhowers 

request to Congress for a comparatively small 

und to aid our ailing merchant marine, and said: "Merchant 

shipping always has been for the United States a 

key element^ of Bound national defense and always will be 

so long as sea power forms one of the first lines of defense. 

This is more true today than'it was prior to World War II, 

despite the increased capabilities of the plane. 

"For the United States is now far more dependent on 

foreign sources for vital strategic raw materials than it 

was a decade or two ago. Uranium, oil, manganese, colum 

bium and scores of other minerals and products must be 

transported across the* seas to the United States if our war 

economy is to be maintained." 

Mr. Baldwin pointed out that our present merchant 

fleet is large in size. But the mere figures are misleading, 

for 80 per cent of the ships should be replaced within nine 

years. Yet, unless government takes the necessary action, 

merchant shipbuilding will come to a full stop in the relatively 

near future. 

Mr. Baldwin summed up the problem in these words: 

"The high cost of constructing and operating United States 

merchamvships is the major economic reason for the merchant 

marine's between-wara decline. There is no doubt, 

however, that the merchant marine is an essential element 

of our security policies as they are now envisaged."

HOUSEKEEPING 

There ought to be some kind of 

automatic warning device to keep 

wives on the alert against husbands 

who suddenly become ecoaontyminded: 

suddenly, that is, after 

bills come in for a new casting rod 

and power saw! 

All unconscious of budget visions 

dancing In JefT'B head 1 barged in 

airily: "Well, our old washing machint 

gave its last whecxe today 

and Just up and died! We have to 

have a new one now." 

"Can't afford it. Out of the question." 

That was my answer . . . 

short and to the 

point. I had intended 

in my 

scheming little 

mind to appeal 

to Jeff's mechanical 

nature 

in describing the 

machine I had 

my heart set on, 

Whirlpool's latest 

automatic washer. I really could 

have waxed enthusiastic over the 

guide lite control panel, a marvel 

in mechanical perfection, At your 

finger-tip on a beautifully-colored, 

fully-ttluminated panel there are 

choices of water temperatures for 

whites and cottons, prints and 

colors, or delicate fabrics; water 

levels, and washing times. Automatically, 

a colored light reveals 

your, choices, then a colored indicator 

follows the washer operation' 

so you know what's going on every 

step of the way! 

"I can show you," I pitched in, 

"that the new washer I have in 

mind will cost only half as much to 

operate as our old machine." 

Jeff got on his "prove it" look, 

so I explained about the 6uds-miaer 

which cuts soap, water and fuel 

costs by saving clean, sudsy water 

for use from one load to the next. 

He really perked up his ear* at 

that so" I explained how much 

water could b« sand by whig 

•snail amounts Instead of full capacity 

for a Uttle load of socks or a 

dab of nylons. By now Jeff was off 

the defensive so I went on about 

the fully flexible washing cycle 

which enables you to stop, repeat, 

shorten, lengthen, or skip any part 

of the automatic operation. I wound 

up the campaign with information 

on the seven complete rinses, an 

interior ultra-violet lamp to help 

sanitize clothes, and a dual cycle 

tone which sounds when a wash 

load ia completed! 

Well, we have the new washer 

but after all my subtle conniving 

it's a little maddening to hear Jen 7 

brag about "his" smart investment 

and how easy it is on the budget? 

But I'm biding my time waiting for 

Jeff to sell himself on the match* 

ing automatic dryer.

Cuts By Congress 

And President Aids 

Jersey Taxpayers 

Savings Estimated At 

$215,290,000 . 

NEWARK—The New Jersey 

Stats Chamber of Commerce 

today estimated that New- Jer 

aey taxpayers will save $236,i90,- 

000 through out* which Congress 

and the Eisenhower Admi 

niatiation made In appronria 

tioas .for the Federal fiscal year 

19*5 iielow those approved for 

1954. , 

In a box scare of Federal appropriations 

the New Jersey 

State Chamber showed that 1906 

cuts 'totaled 86.9 

below appropriation totals 

for 1654. Calculating that 

Now Jersey taxpayers bear 3.41 

per tent of all Federal taxes, 

the New Jersey State Chamber 

applied this percentage to the 

$6.9 billion figure to reach it* 

estimate of $235,290,000 In savings 

lor 1954-65. 

6»vmgs to New Jersey taxptiyiTs 

as a result of the reduced 

Fed-.THl budget, the State 

Chamber pointed out. aw sllght- 

Jy larger than the total amount 

of the State government appro. 

prlalion bill passed by the Legislature. 

The total amount of 

the 1054-55 State appropriation 

bill !s $234,803,000. 

The State Chamber said that 

"a commendable effort two been 

made by Congress in cutting 

whit was generally conceded at 

the outset to 1M a tight budget." 

The study showed that Congress 

cut 9?4 billion from the 

$54.9 billion new funds requested 

by the Elsenhower Administration. 

In addition, It pointed 

out that the Administration 

reduced for appropriation* in 

1955 f4.3 billion below the $61.2 

billion provided for fiscal 1964. 

This action brought the total 

reduction by Congress and the 

(Admtnistnatton from the 1954 

amount to $64 billion. 

Congress took back $1,170,- 

000,000 In money from other 

years which the Armed Services 

and the Foreign Operations Administration 

had not gotten around 

to spending, according to 

the frtate Chamber atudy. It 

added, 

'It 1* the huge balance of unexpected 

tind largely committeed 

appropriations, that the Elsenhower 

Administration Inherited 

when it came Into office, which 

has made impossible- the reduction 

o' expenditures as rapidly 

as appropriations have been 

out." 

The study cited a number of 

spending programs that Congress 

voted for in spite of economy 

goals which both the Administration 

and Congress- held. 

These Included: 

An increase In the borrowing 

authority of the Commodity 

Credit Corporation, a two-year 

Pedwrtl aid highway program, 

an Air Force Academy, mope 

pubil: housing, the St. Lawrence 

Seannay. a defense public workl
