of a as weeper I'd leuad earlier

Where somebody
had tied if to
keep his block
from busting, and
I got interested in
President 'Eisen-
hower’s budget
for this yesr.
As I' understand it, he says well
have to spend more money but
won’t have to raise taxes. He say'
it will tahe about 73 billion dol-
lars to run the government for
the next twelve months, which is
0n increase of about 3 billion over
what it took test year, and while
fll admit it doesn't make much
giffemnee to me. J don't know the

Well, new, rll tell you, I sure

the United States government lr
counting on me increasing any in

If the Washington experts are
counting on me to keep em ou<

counting their chickens befor»
their eggs sre hatched. In fact,
they’d better check up on th<
eggs too. My hens haven’t been
laying much.

And I Quote
In 1050, the ratio of hospital
births to home births has morr
than doubled over the past 15
years, according to Texas State
Department of Health statistics.
Live birth hospital deliveries
increased from 42.4 per cent t<
00.1 per cent during the period
of Texas’ greatest growth.
Also, the ratio of 1056 live
births to deaths in Texas was wel
over three to one, while statistics
15 years ago indicate the ratio
was only slightly in excess of two
births per death.
Baby's chance of surviving thr
first year of life has more that
doubled since 1040.
Mother, too, has reaped even
greater medical benefits. Fifteen
years ago, the risk of death at
childbirth was nine times greater
than it it today.
Dr. Henry A. Holle, commission-
er of health, announced that the
yeppl^ng of blrths^and^dkatht^and
MvUon of Um '
was greater than ever before ia
Texas history.
By contrast, in years gone by
birth records received in the de-
partment would often omit thr
name of the infant. Death record
were often incomplete, especially
in the early days of state record
keeping.

While only 12 per cent of the na-
tion’s total accidents, both on and
off the turnpikes, involve rear-end
crashes, 33 per cent of turnpike
accidents leave vehicles with *at-
ging posteriors. Charles W. Prisk,
research engineer of the United
States Bureau of Public Roads and
head of the Institute of TJraffi;
Engineers, recently stated that ur -1

new highways will become as dan-
gerous as the old.
The excuse, “I didn’t sec . .
is often heard in connection wit t
rear-end collisions. The reason for
this excuse is disclosed in reoorts
from both the New Jersey Turn-
pike Authority and the Pennsy -
vania Joint Safety Research Group.
They dlseoveredthat rear-end col-
lisions were significanlty higher
during darkness on straight-u?
roadway. In fact, John R. Crosby,
assistant traffic engineer with the
New Jersey Turnpike Authority,
reported that twice as many rear-
end collisions occur at night as in
the daytime.
Theoretically, rear-end collisions
could be eliminated if all vehicles
on highways could be made to
travel at the ume speed. However,
hiehway engineers are quick to
point out that enforcing a strut
program to slow down speedeis
and speed up crawlers is almost a
physical impossibility and a finan-
cial improbability.
A recent nation-wide inspection
of more than 1,677,000 motor ve-
hicles showed that more than a
fourth—26.6 per cent—of all ini'-'
chanical defects were rear lights.
The results of motor vehicle in-
spections and the higher nightime
collision rate have p.ompted traf-
fic engineers to call for better
rear-end lighting and wide-spread
use of reflective materials.
The traffic engineers’ sugges-
tions already have been carried
out in a number of ways. Some
states are covering license plates
with materials that reflect head-
from 3,000 feet away and
motorists with an ever-
rear llfhta of vehicles entering the
pike in an attempt to cut down
rear-end collisions.
Truck and but line* are putting
reflective sheeting on their vc
hiclea in an effort to reduce rea--
end collisions. Greyhound bus line s
report that rear-end collisions
dropped 14 per ceht the first year
the lines’ busses were reflecto •
ized and 10 per cent TliC second.
One automobile manufacture-,
Plymouth, ia experimenting with
reflective body paint and another.
Ford, is conducting experiments
with new devices especially de-
signed to prevent rear-end colli-
sions.
Traffic engineers are slowly cut-
ting dawn tho number of rear-end
collisions, but it is up to all of us
—in the individual drover’s seat—
to take precautions ourselves.
SORGHUM HYBRIDS

Seven grain sorghum hybrids,
developed cooperatively by the
Texas Agricultural Experiment
Station and the U. S. Department
•f Agriculture, will be available to
farmeii for planting in 1067
That# hybrids are the result of
research work wkich began in
1031 and are the firat practical
hybrids to be released from these
Studies.
The seven hybrids, RS 500. Tex-
as 601, Texas 610, Texas 611, RS
650, and Texas 660, are the best
