FAST THINKING AS IMPORTANT SAFETY FACTOR The fastest thing you can do Is wink your eye but that frequently is not fast enough. If a piece of cinder or an Insect in blown at your eye. It takes about one-tenth of a second to wink. Yet In that time, if you are at the wheel of an automobile moving 60 miles an hour, the car wilt continue 10 feet. A fast airplane will fly more than 25 feet, while a golf ball, driven from the wrong angle, can strike you 15 feet away before you are able to wink. In other words, the margin be tween life and death Is In a great many instances merely the wink of an eye, It is pointed out by those concerned with safety on highways. Slow-thlnking drivers are pro bably as great a menace on the highways today as the reckless driver, it was said. Modern life, with Its speeding automobiles, rail way trains, airplanes and machin ery In factories and homes. Is press ing close on the ability of mankind to react quickly and accurately. William Cole, chief of the Wash ington state highway patrol, In a re port on file here, shows the results of an Investigation made by his force into the "human equation" of driving. A majority of drivers are nervous or slow-thinkers and should drive slowly and with extreme cau tion. There are just as many men who are slow-thinkers as women. Chief Cole's report showed. Tests made on hundreds of thou sands of persons in Washington and California, although no such study has been made for Oregon, have proved that the reaction tune for the average person cannot be safe ly fixed at less than one second. This, therefore sets oie (one of safe ty which surrounds all kinds of moving machinery. For example, the automobile traveling even at the slow rate of 35 miles an hour requires a safe distance of 15 feet. At 00 miles an hour it requires M feet If your tire collapses or steering gear breaks at 60 miles an hour, you will be hurled 00 feet along the highway before you nave time to act. Speed on the highways Is con stantly Increasing, bringing always more pressingly to the attention of safety experts the problem of the slow thinker at the wheel. There Is no known method to as certain how many thousands of lives, how many millions of money, slow-reacting drivers have cost themselves and others In the last 10 years, not because they are care less or lncompetant, but because their thinking machinery cant work fast enough to keep up with modern mechanical methods, ex perts say. WAR ORPHANS STAGE REVOLT IN RUMANIA CluJ, Rumania, 0J4 Three full hours were required by a combined force or police and gendarme to quiet the inmates of the war or phanage here when the orphans revolted" against the disciplinary measures of the Institution's director. In a body they marched out Into the street to hold a public demon stration. A number of minor casual ties were suffered by each side be fore the orphans admitted defeat and retreated to the orphanage. x' K you have never enter ed our clean, orderly stores or seen our attractive displays of good foods to eat; you haven't given our friendly salesmen an opportunity to show you what Safeway service really means; Then you owe it to yourself I visit your nearest Safeway Stor and experience a new shopping pleasure.

The survey, when com- j pleted, wiU be equaled by only two other states Colorado and Ohio, Burgess said. . I The value of the Information be- i ing complied for the state author- I ities, lies in deductions that can be drawn In providing for future ed- ! ucatlonal movements and methods, j Burgess declared. The survey will show the status of teachers now em- ployed, whether a majority are male or female, approximate age, ed-1 ucatlon and training of each, ap- ; proximate teacher turnover or av- ; erage length of employment and other information vltatl to state of- ficials in discovering the needs of Oregon school personell i "In malting the survey, only that : Information most desirable to state ; officials, was solicited," Burgess: said. "When complete, the study' will enable us to have at hand In formation concerning those bran-1 ches of education affording greater j opportunity. We will be able to dto- courage the study of those depart ments already oversupplied with teachers. Of the 8,000 questlonalres for warded Oregon teachers, M per cent were returned complete, "Burgess said. "A remarkable record of co operation on the part of those work ing for the state and a deciding actor in the success of the survey."
