BILLY GRAHAM ASKS GOLDEN RULE ON THE ROAD Thou Shalt Not Kill' on the His 'hway, Too i S3 I Our experts tell us the greatest causes of highway accidents are driving while drinking, driving on the wrong side of the road, failure to yield right-of-way, passing on a curve or hill, passing on the wrong side of the road, failure to give proper signals and reckless driving, in that order. But almost everyone now agrees these are only symptoms of something else that is basically wrong. DR. HERBERT STACK of the New York University Center for Safety Education has said: Eighty per cent of all traffic accidents are duo to the faults of the drivers or the pedestrians. Why does modern man continue to maim, injure and slaughter in this way? ONE OF THE greatest causes of highway accidents is the breaking of the Golden Rule.

And the new slogan, 'drive unto others as you would have them drive unto you," is a modern practical version of the time-tested Golden Rule of the Bible. It is neither Christian nor Turn to rKe 2, Column 6 Most fatalities in automobile accidents are classed as accidental. But experts agree that most of them could have been prevented. Safety authorities are also beginning to realize the basic problem is deeper than at first suspected. One such authority says: "It is our conviction that neither science nor engineering, no matter how wisely or widely appjied, can provide a permanent solution." THIS PROBLEM has its roots in the minds and hearts of men, and it is there we must.

look for an answer. mass tragedy. The pee dir. tourist makes a trip into annihilation and a party goer is carried home on a stretcher to a life of pain, suffering and misery. LAST YEAR, 40.000 persons were killed on the nation's highways and 1,500,000 were injured.

These are just cold, hard statistics, but back of each one is a tragedy of sorrow, bereavement and suffering. This represents a greater slaughter than the Korean War and it was brought about in less than one-third of the time. Evangelist Billy Graham gives his views on highway safety in this article written for the Asheville Citizen-Times and the Associated Press. He will preach a sermon on the topic Sunday over ABC and Mutual radio networks from the Ocean Grove (N. Methodist Bible conference.

BY BILLY GRAHAM ASHEVILLE, N. C. (JF) Highway safety is basically a spiritual problem and we will never solve the problem until men have surrendered their hearts and wills to God. The terrible record of death on our highways is not only a sad commentary on our estimate of the value of life, but a direct violation of the Golden Rule. Resort areas of America are crowded this Labor Day weekend, possibly witft more people than any weekend in American history.

It is the nation's last fling at a summer vacation. The highways will be. jammed. As man becomes more skilled scientifically, he seemingly becomes more deft at destroying-. Each day we read of the careless and who rush headlong to destruction.

Some signs might optimistically, if incautiously, he read to indicate a 50 to 75 per cent cut in polio risk. The Associated Press looked for "straws in the wind" in 48 states and two foreign countries where the Salk vaccine is used. Every single straw points toward some protective effect.

Not one is blowing in the direction of "no effect." These are among the main straws: Twenty-three states list a total of 261 cases of polio among three million children given one or more shots. By contrast, they list more than four times as many cases 1.095 among an almost equal number of nonvarcinated children aged 5 to 9. THESE FIGURES cover cases numerous Ftates of nonparalytic as well as paralytic polio. The other 25 states were omitted in this addition simply because their reports did not supply anywhere near comparable age groups. Taking six states giving breakdowns secifically of Taralytic polio (perhaps not all confirmed), an addition hows an attack rate 75 per cent less among vaccinated than among nonvaccinated.

This shows 24 paralytic cases among 1,122,857 inoculated, an attack rate of 2.14 a 100,000. It shows 58 cases Turn to Page 2, Column 3 1 Michigan Road Toll Reaches 10 4 from Detroit Area Among Firt Victims Four Detroit area residents, including a nine-year-old hit-run victim, were among 10 persons killed as Michigan motorists eg an the1 Labor Day weekend.

THE UNITED STATES Government has never officially banned the sale of passenger cars to Russia and its Eastern satellites. All exports to Red China have been banned by official decree since 1950. "Now, as far as General Motors is concerned, the bars arc down," the magazine said. "Decisions on auto sales are wholly in the hands of the government. GM's new-policy is an effort to shift sole responsibility fot determining what gets shipped to the Reds to the Government, where businessmen have felt it belonged from the start." Business Week said in one sense "GM's policy is a result of the East-West thaw." At Ford Motor GM's No.
