LETTERS
Merry Christinas
To the editor:
As the Christmas season
approaches, I am looking
forward to a few days away
from the campaign trail to
spend time with my family-as
I know everyone in the Second
District is.
During the 10 weeks I have
been campaigning as a candi
date for Congress in the new
Second District, I have met
thousands of people to whom I
have listened and with whom I
have discussed their concerns
about jobs, inflation, the
economy, world affairs and
many other topics. The people
I have met share with me not
only these concerns but also
an optimism that Americans
can and will find solutions to
the problems that face us.
It has been a real pleasure
to meet so many fine people in
Morrow County. I am looking
forward to seeing you all and
meeting many more in the
weeks and months of cam
paigning ahead.
To all my new friends-and
my old ones-I wish a merry
Christmas and a happy new
year.
Sincerely,
Robert F. Smith .
Senate Republican Leader
OSP advises
To the editor:
Several articles have been
written on the subject of
"Alcohol Hangovers." Usu
ally the author sympathizes
with the victim of a hangover
and offers cures.
From a law enforcement
viewpoint, one important
piece of advice is seldom
given. To the hangover victim
who doesn't listen to the
advice, "If you drink don't
drive," I have this advice:
When an officer stops you
while driving your automo
bile, don't say.'Tve only had
two drinks"; he's heard that
too many times before.
Don't argue and become
combative when the officer
wants to search you and place
you in handcuffs, he is only
following good police pro
cedures, for your benefit as
well as his. Too often drunk
driving leads to a second
charge of Resisting Arrest.
Most jails require that
prisoners be handcuffed be
fore being admitted. When the
booking officer takes over
from the arresting officer, he
becomes another witness to
your condition. He will permit
you to make a phone call only
when the booking process is
completed to his satisfaction.
When you have called an
attorney or close relative to
say, "I'm in jail," be prepared
to spend the night, or longer
over a weekend, behind bars,
probably with other "drunks."
You will not receive any of
the hangover remedies you
read about, but chances are,
the headache of being treated
like the common criminal you
are, won't respond to the
usually prescribed remedies.
The foregoing scenario fits
the three to four hundred men,
women and young adults who
will be arrested over the 1981
thristmas and New Year's
Eve Holiday Season.
There is another scenario
that will be the fate of twenty
to thirty other party goers who
don't heed the advice, "If you
drink don't drive." These
' people who aren't fortunate
TO EDITOR
enough to be stopped by a
police officer in time to
prevent them from being
involved in a fatal auto
accident.
If you are the person killed,
consider yourself fortunate;
you have left all the heart
aches and financial problems
to your loved ones, "Some
Inheritance."
It's another story if you
survive the accident and have
to face up to the reality of
having become a murderer
just as though it were a gun or
knife and not a car that caused
a death.
Chances are you will still
wake up behind bars, but the
long days ahead, will be filled
with the nightmare of grieving
relatives of the person you
killed and a long court battle
to save your family's lifetime
savings and keep you out of
the penitentiary.
One last piece of advice on
hangover remedies. Don't
imbibe to the degree you need
a cure, and above all don't
take a single drink and expect
to drive a motor vehicle.
Have a Safe and Happy
Holiday.
Sincerely,
John C. Williams
Superintendent
Department of State Police
