"Development In the field of guided missiles by all three serv ices are greater than most people realize," Norblad said. "I for one, concur in the thinking of certain members of the joint chiefs-of-staff that in the near future we can ma terially reduce the large numbers of men in our defense establish ments," Norblad said.

Norblad is one of the ranking members of the house armed serv ices committee. Night Driving Brings Hazard Increased hours of darkness and return of fog and rain to the weath er scene wero listed today as pos sible traffic trouble-makers in the weeks ahead. , . Night driving Is about three limes more deadly than daytime ! travel,' despite the fact that more miles are driven during the day, the Oregon Traffic Safety commis sion noted, This is true, safety officials said, because some drivers overlook the fact that they cannot see as clear ly at night and drive at speeds which do not permit a stop within the range of their headlights. Drivers' can do little to remove dangers presented by fog, but in daylight they can do themselves a favor by using full headlights on low beam when fog sets in. This gives oncoming drivers a better opportunity to sec them. Some drivers persist In driving with parking lights In fog, a sometimes fatal error, the Commission re ports.
