National Grange Works
For Rural Road Safety
Highway safety in rural commu
nltiea la the theme of the twelfth
renewal of the annual campaign
undertaken by the National grange
through Its 8,000 local or subordin
ate granges to insure for residents
of rural communities a greater
measure of protection and caution
while on the streets and highways.
Announcement of the campaign
has been made by National Master
L. J. Taber to state masters in the
several grange states.
The campaign takes the form of
an essay contest among junior
members of the grange, with a long
list of awards and prizes to be
given the successful contestants.
The subject on which grange boys
and girls are to write 800-word
papers is "How the Grange Can
Promote Highway Safety." The
contest is open to all members not
more than 18 years of age. The
closing date is August 1, when all
papers are to be submitted to the
subordinate lecturer of each local
grange.
The major prize is a trip to the
national convention at Sacramento,
California, with all expenses paid.
to be given to the boy or girl whose
essay is ranked first in the nation.
The second national award is fifty
dollars, the third is thirty dollars,
while fourth and fifth winners re
ceive fifteen dollars and five dollars
respectively. State prizes are nu
merous. For the best essay from
each ' state the writer receives
check for five dollars and a silver
medal, while the second, third, and
fourth winners each receive bronze
medals. It has been the custom in
previous years to present the na
tionaV winner to the national con
vention or sessions of the grange,
and to afford the successful con'
testant an opportunity to read his
paper to the assembly.
All prizes are gifts of the Auto
mobile Manufacturers association,
which has cooperated with the Na
tional grange through this long
period in an effective campaign
that has made material contribu
tion to the reduction of accidents
on rural highways.
The rules provide that the sub-
ordinate lecturer In each grange
shall be in charge of the contest,
and further details may be secured
from him, from the state or na
tional master.
I. J. Taber, national master of
the grange, is one of the most acv
tlve proponents of street and high'
way safety programs. In urging
the subordinate granges to wage
vigorous campaigns among their
members to secure a reduction of
the accident toll, Mr. Taber said
"The loss of life, the loss of prop
erty, and the suffering caused by
avoidable automobile accidents is
so tremendous that you can render
a service to your grange, your com-
munity and the nation by a program
of the character outlined in the
rules for the campaign this year."
Officials of the organization co
operating in the campaign agree
that an educational campaign on
traffic safety among rural commu
nities is of the utmost importance,
since an analysis of traffic mishaps
shows that although less than one
fourth of the accidents each year
occur on country roads, a much
larger proportion of fatalities are
recorded in rural areas.
National Master Taber himself
supervises the selection of the win
ning essays. Each state master
forwards him the best essays from
the several states, and these the
national master turns over to a
committee of three distinguished
persons whose rating is accepted
by him and by the grange as final.
New Chevrolet Assembly Plant Opens in Baltimore

ment of the capitol building, were
removed from the structure after
the flames had subsided and while
some of the volumes were unfit for
future use, the others were taken
out of their wrappings and pack
ages, and spread out in various at
tic rooms to be dried thoroughly
to prevent mold or added damage.
SAIJE OF FARM LANDS UP.
Spokane. Sales of Pacific North
west farm land by the Federal Land
bank of Spokane since January 1,
exceeded by $371,000 sale for the
corresponding period of 1934, ac
cording to Ward W. Newcomb, vice
president in charge of the land de
partment of the bank. The six
months sales for 1935 totaled Sl,
438,352.75, compared with $1,056,
822.37 for the same period last year.
In addition to this increase in sales,
reflecting the improved condition
of agriculture.
Governmental, state and civic officials joined with the principal executives of General Motors Corporation in the
formal opening of the new 80,000-car-a-year Chevrolet assembly plant in Baltimore recently. The new plant (center)
was dedicated with impressive ceremonies (lower left), and Chevrolet, Fisher Body and General Motors officials
were guests of the Baltimore Association of Commerce at a formal banquet in the evening. W. E. Holler, vice-president
and general sales manager of Chevrolet, is shown (standing) with Maryland's Governor, H. W. Nice, and Alfred
P. Sloan, Jr., president of General Motors (upper left). M. E. Coyle, president and general manager of Chevrolet,
is pictured in the upper right photo with Senator Millard Tydings (left) and Mayor H. W. Jackson, of Baltimore
(right). Lower right shows the first motor car built in that city.
These awards are always made in
ample time for the national winner
to reach the scene of the national
convention usually held in Novem
ber of each year.
Winners of recent national
awards in the grange contest are:
Ruth Walden of Liberal, Kansas,
Stanton Peterson, Braham, Minne
sota, and Verna Brown of West
Pawlet, Vermont.
STATE SAVES MANY
VALUALE RECORDS
Salvagng operations of the state
department following the fire that
destroyed the capitol building in
April 25, have brought to light many
documents and much equipment
that was first thought to have been
lost, and great care has been exer
cised in the removal of material to
preserve the valuable records and
as many supplies as possible, re
ports Earl Snell, secretarp of state.
"One of the most fortunate occur
rences as far as records of the state
department are concerned," states
Mr. Snell, "was the preservation of
documents stored in the large three
story vault in my office. Concen-
tration of fire-fighting efforts on
the north wing of the capitol, when
it became apparent that the build.
Jng was doomed, kept the contents
of the vaults n the state treasurer's
office and the state department in'
tact, and thus prevented great loss
of historical data as well as aud
