SPEEDI SPEED! SPEED!
In checking automobile fatalities
lists for 1946 and 1947, it appears1
that about 33,000 people died in
each of the two years on city
streets or rural roads. For every one
killed the average runs to 35 in
jured, of whom one in 12 retains
permanent impairment. The total
from 1923 to 1948 is appalling: 750,
000 dead and more than 25,000,000
wounded in the Battle of the High
ways.
The reason behind a highway
death is not always simple. A num
ber of factors may combine at the
wrong split second. But the figures
in the breakdown are clear. For ex-<
ample, in 1946, seven out of every
100 drivers did not have the right
of way; nine out of every 100 were
definitely under the influence of
alcohol; eleven out of every 100
were driving on the wrong side of
the road.
Speed! No fewer than 31 out or
every 100 were going too fast when
it happened. Of these, 21 were ex
ceeding posted speed limits. The
ten other were within legal rights
but not within the bounds of com
mon sense, considering weather
conditions and the state of the
road.
Speed is the largest single killer
by a wide margin. The driver with
a heavy foot on the accelerator,
whether he knows it or not, is often
at the wheel of a car which is et
fectively out of his control, if an
emergency arises. At 60 miles an
hour, he is traveling 88 feet a sec
ond. A few moments of inattention
or drowsiness, the unexpected ap
pearance of a pedestrian or another
car, a turn in the road which de
velops into a sharp curve—and, if
he has passed the limit of control,
he finds himself face to face with
death for himself or somebody else.
One question not answered in the
reports or tabulated in the final
figures is: Where was the fast
driver going and why did he have
to get there so quickly? It seems to
be taken for granted that getting
from one place to another in the
shortest possible time justifies the
killing of 92 victims a day and the
injury of 3000 others. Why?
Speed can be controlled at the
critical hours only by the driver
himself. His own good sense and
judgment have to tell him that he
is not at the wheel of any play
thing. He is the captain in com
mand of a deadly engine of de
struction. By never losing sight of
this fact, the American who drives
a car could help to save 10.000 lives
a year—and very possibly save him
self from a rapid ride to his own
funeral.

SANATORIUM NURSE TELLS
OF VOYAGES TO FAR EAST
Miss Caroline Clark, who re
turned to her duties as a nurse
at the Seward Sanatorium a
month ago, is getting over the
sea legs she acquired from three
months of sea duty.
Miss Clark left the Seward
Sanatorium last November and
visited her family in South
Bend, Washington. She was all
packed to return to Alaska when
she was asked if she would like
the position of nurse aboard
the President liner General
W. H. Gordon, the ship which
had picked up the refugees at
Tientsin.
Her first voyage, which start
ed from San Francisco January
13, took her to Honolulu, Yoko
hama, Manila, Hongkong and
then returned to the states by
retracing the route. The ship
laid over in Hongkong for four
days waiting for permission
from the Communists to proceed
to Shanghai. The permission
was never received so the ship
turned about without reaching
mat cninese port.
On the second trip, Miss Clark
relates that many of the passen
gers were Japanese from the
United States and Honolulu go
ing to Japan to see the cherry
festival which has been resumed
since the war.
After the second trip, Miss
Clark resigned from the General
W. H. Gordon and returned to
Alaska. She had enjoyed the sea
duty, but, as she said, she had
always wanted to work aboard
a ship and now she had done it
and gotten it out of her system.
She likes Alaska best.

Anchorage Monday to visit Bert
Lewis.
POPPIES BRING AID TO
WAR DISABLED
How disabled veterans of both
wars are aided by Poppy Day
contributions was (^scribed to
day by Mrs. Stew-art, Poppy
Chairman of Seward Unit of the
American Legion Auxiliary, as
the auxiliary continued prepara
tions for the observance of Pop
py Day here on Saturday, May
20.
“The dimes, quarters and dol
lars which people contribute in
exchange for their memorial
poppies form the backbone of
the financial support for the ex
tensive activities carried out
constantly by the Auxiliary for
the welfare of the disabled vet
erans. If it were not for the gen
erosity of the millions who wear
the little red poppy each year in
memory of the war dead, the
many services of Auxiliary to
the living victims of the two
wars could not be carried out.
“Poppy Day contributions are
used to bring comfort and cheer
to disabled veterans in the hos
pitals. They provide aid for dis
aDiea men outside of the hos
pitals who are having difficul
ties in reestablishing themselves
economically. They help care for
the children of disabled veterans
while the veterans are undergo
ing hospital treatment. They pay
the wages which mean so much
to the veterans who make the
poppies. The money collected on
Poppy Day by the little girls who
are members of the Seward
Brownie troop, the ’teen age
boys, and the willing workers of
the Auxiliary, works for the
disabled veterans throughout the
year.”
Volunteer workers will have
their headquarters at Seward
Trading Co. store on May 20, for
the distribution of the poppies.
