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.

Treatment Of Alcoholism
Calls For Drink Education,
Clinic Director Points Out
SALEM (. 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

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.
Oregon Editors Say Ike
