Mon., Junt 30, 1952 Summer Road Perils For Tired Drivers Listed NEW YORK The motorist with reflexes too dulled by fatigue for the split-second reactions nec essary for safety in modern traf fic is a major highway hazard. This is the opinion of Paul F. Strieker, executive vice president of The Greater New York Safety Council. Pointing out that the average motorist might have to make as many as 50 decisions a hour un der crowded summer weekend con ditions, Mr. Strieker said that the weary, unalert driver invites dis aster for himself, his passengers and other travelers if he pushes on when - physically unfit. Mr. Strieker suggested that va cationists would enhance chances of safe arrival at chosen resorts if they'd Interrupt their trips on;a in a while for coffee and a atretch. "Uninterrupted driving develops a sort of highway hypnosis. After a while vigilance is relaxed, and the warning senses doze. It is at this point that a halt should be called, like the restful coftee break in industry, and both driver and passenger should get out of the car for ten minutes or so to refresh themselves. In this way the driver can offset the fatigue which is a frequent factor in accidents." Don't "Stretch" Vacation For the man who rushei home from work Friday evening, hops into his car and starts off over night to vacationland, Mr. Striek er has one word: "Don't." "On any other workday evening In the year this man would tell his wife that he was completely ex hausted, that he was too tired even to go to the movies. Then he would curl up for an 8-hour sleep after an honest day's work. "But not, In too many Instances, on the night before vacation. Al though this same tired man has done a full day's work, he feels he must drive all night so that he will not miss one single minute of the enjoyment of his vacation. And so he starts out to fight traf fic and the glare of headlights at a time when he was never more un. fit to drive a car safely. "This man may think !r is doing himself and his family a favor by stretching his vacation a few hours. He may even fwl a little proud lhat he is sacrificing his rest so that his family can get to the mountains or the shore a half dav early. Actually, his 'sacri fice' may turn out to be the wel fare of himself and family and, even more reprehensibly, the lives of others on the highways he trav els." Safety "Do's" Offorod Mr. Strieker listed these "do's" as important to highway safety: 1. Start your trip when rested, not after a hard day's work when fatigue has already set in. 2. Let plenty of fresh air Into the car as an anti-drowsiness pre caution. 3. Make a slop at least once every two hours; walk around; stretch your limbs. 4. F.ngage In light conversation with your passengers, It will help keep you alert. 5. In case of doubt as to your own fitness to continue driving, pull of the road to rest or go to a hotel and sleep. 6. Hold speeds down to 50 miles an hour even where faster rates of travel are permitted.

Education in drinking is a vital need if al coholism is to be reduced, Raymond G. McCarthy, executive director of the Yale Plan Clinic, said Wednesday at a confer ence of Oregon State Hospital doctors and nurses. McCarthy, one of the country's leaders in dealing with alcoholism added that "something will have to be done to reduce the halo effect which surrounds drinking. Many people drink because of social pressure. We perpetuate the idea that drinking gives a jolt. We must change these concepts." The clinic which McCarthy heads Is attached to Yale University, and is the pioneer in modern treat ment of alcoholics. He said 8 or 7 per cent of drink ers are problem drinkers, but he doubts if alcoholism has increased in the past few years. "Recovery from alcoholism Is not a matter of intellect. We have to teach alcoholics to live through their experiences without drinking, and help them manipulate their lives without alcohol," he said. McCarthy said the goal in treat ing alcoholics is to "help them get rid of their emotional pressures and to develop balance so they can become indifferent to alcohol." He disagreed with the theory that alcoholics are persons who haven't matured in their emotions. McCarthy said most alcoholics are mature persons in most phases of their personality. Some gel drunk because they are depressed, but some da it when things are rosy. Anxiety Basic Causa "Basic anxiety is at the root of the whole business. 1 have never seen an alcoholic recover without help, such as psychiatry, medical treatment or religion. Many alco holics have a tendency to live at some earlier level in their lives," he asserted. McCarthy said there Is a big need for outpatient clinics so alco holics can. continue to get help after their discharge from hospitals.

The ordinary drinker, he de clared, drinks to enhance the pleasure of reality. The alcoholic drinks to make reality something it isn't. McCarthy said that antabuse, the drug whch makes it impossible for a person to take a drink as long as he continues to take it, Is successful only in a small number of cases. This drug is given at the state hospital only to 3 per cent of the alcoholic patients. A person on antabuse becomes violently ill if he takes a drink wilbin five days after taking the drug. McCarthy also talked for an hour with alcoholic patients at the state hospital. This talk started a three hour discussion by the patients about their problems.

Retirement Life Will Be Longer, Data Indicates .By ROWLAND EVANS JR. WASHINGTON Hi By 1975 the average man can look forward to nine years of retirement before he dies, compared with only six years now and three in "1900. That is just one ' conclusion reached in a lengthy study made public Monday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). "The gap between the workin? life span and the total life span." the BLS report said, "continues to widen for most American work ers." One of the most important prob lems confronting the nation, BI-S said, is how to prevent a waste of the productive capacity of older workers. The study said "arbitrary age discriminations against older work ers who must seek new jobs and compulsory age retirement of able employes deprive the nation of pro ductive capacity." Realtors, Minors Laad Real estate firms and anthracite coal mines, the report said, em ploy the highest proportion of older workers men and, in the real es tate business, women over 45. Almost half of all persons in real estate and 44 per cent of anthra cite coal miners are 45 or older. Some other conclusions reached by BLS:. 1. The 12 million men and wo men over 65 today comprise twice as large a portion of U.S. popu lation as the 65 and overs in 1900. 2. Americans 45 and older may increase to a to'al 6.1 million by 1975, or nearly half of all those a;ed 20 or more. 3. Men are dying faster than women, and that trend is due to in tensify. For instance today there are one million more women 45 or older than there are mpn- hut I hv 1Q7S RT G oil tUam ..-ill K six million more. Average life ex pectancy for a white man born in 1949 is 65.9 years; for a white wo man, 71.5.

Raw Uranium For Atom Bombs Wanted By U.S. WASHINGTON I A congres sional committee says military planners aren't trying hard enough to find and produce uranium in this country or to stockpile suffi cient atomic bombs to prevent war or to' win a war quickly if one comes. The Senate-House Atomic En ergy Committee said In a report to Congress that the military forces should use more of their funds in the search for raw uranium, a basic material in A-bombs. "If war should come some years hence and the United States did not then possess as many atomic weapons relative to other types of armament as would have been de sirable." the report said, "there would be no valid exoneration of either the military or higher authority in terms of uranium shortage." The committee recommended "a very substantial revision in both uranium and thorium procure ment." Uranium production figures are kept secret. The Atomic Energy Commission offers bonuses to any prospectors who discover substantial new deposits of the metal. Pointing out that most uranium supplies come from foreign sourc es the U.S. gets much of its supply from the Belgian Congo the com mittee said these sources might be cut off in the future.
