Back At Work With
Stitched-Up Heart
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. fSpl In ft
statement being sent to the 11.000
posta of the American Legion, Ed
ward A. Hayes, national commander,
U announcing a nation-wide plan to
awaken support for the constitution
of the United States through the ob
servance of Constitution Week, be
ginning September 17, he said today.
The program for the observance Is
being outlined by the Americanism
commission of the legion, of which
Russell Cook is director at national
headquarters here. It embraces a i
. mass meeting and public speaking on
September 17. Constitution Day, by
legion officials In every community
large enough to have a legion post,
Director Cook said. This will be fol
lowed by addresses throughout the
week In grade and high schools and
before civic organizations.
Following the week of Intensive ob
servance, according to Director Cook
a legion poster dedicated to the con
stitution will be placed on outdoor
panels throughout the United Statu
The poster Is described as showing
"a massed formation of uniformed
Legionnaires, marching out of the
orange yellow of the dawn from a
limitless horizon, the figures tense
and expressions determined." In their
vanguard is the figure of Columbia
carrying in her hands the constitu
tion or the United States.
In his statement to all post com
manders, Mr. Hayes wrote in part:
"Because of the continuous growth
of insidious, un-American propa
ganda, which Is undermining the
confidence of the American people
in the constitution and our form of
government, all posts are being call
ed upon to formulate plans for i
nation-wide patriotic observance on
September 17 this year. The purpose
of this demonstration Is to stimulate
a greater appreciation of our consti
tution and the rights, benefits and
privileges guaranteed thereby.
"Every member of our organization,
upon being accepted for membership,
solemnly pledged himself to support
the ten purposes eet forth In the
legion preamble. The first of these
ten purposes is 'to uphold and de
fend the constitution of the United
States.'
"Let us prove, by taking the lead
In this observance, that there la no
place in America for those who will
not support and defend the consti
tution."

SAFETY IN DRIVING
Ab Jenkins, the man who hold"
more American Automobile associa
tion record, for distance, speed and
endurance driving than any other
driver and has never had an acci
dent gives six practical suggestions
for safe driving in the current Rota
rlsn magazine. They are:
1. Keep both hands on the wheel
"The only two people I know who
are competent to drive one-handed
are Eddie Rlckenbacker and Ralph
de Palma and both of them use two
hands."
3. Keep the best tires on the front
wheels.
"The front-wheel blow-out Is by far
the more dangerous. When blow-outs
do happen, danger can be averted by
clinging stoutly to the steering
wheel."
3. Always test your brakes.
"During the first hundred yards
of driving, I always test my brakes
by pushing down the pedal.
brakes may have froten. they may be
greasy or need adjustment."
4. Be extremely careful at twilight.
"You have three times the accident
hazard at twilight than you have at
a. m. Defective visibility Is, of
course, the reason. Remember, too.
that night-time crashes have a 2
per cent higher fatality than day
light accidents."
5. Don't use brakes In a skid.
"To come out of a skid throw out
your clutch and maneuver the steer
ing wheel so that the front wheels are
In alignment with the rear ones. In
other words, go in the skid I Braking
la Ineffectual. Your main concern
Is to equalize traction on all four
wheels, which you do by throwing
out your clutch: your next move la
to get all your wheels In line. As
soon as you feel the skid weakening,
let In the clutch, 'gun' the motor,
and resume forward progress."
6. Study the road.
"Always reduce speed when passing
from one type of road to another.
Your right wheel should be approxi
mately one and one-half feet from
the outer edge of the highway. Run
ning off the road la common. Thirty
one per cent of accldenta are due to
speeding, while thirty-four per cent
are caused by cars going off the road.

TOPS LAST YEAR
i
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind (Spl The
national organization of the Ameri
can Legion entered the month of
August with a total membership of
806.000, Edward A. Hayes, national
commander, said today upon comple
tion of tabulating cards and dues at
national headquarters here as of Au
gust 1. This is 88,282 more than for
the same date last year.
He said the books on 1934 mem
bership will not close until Septem
ber 22, and considerably larger gains
will be recorded due to departments
making last spurts for their own con
ventions, and also because the voting
strength of delegations at the nat
ional convention in Miami is deter
mined as of September 22.
Records at national headquarters
show that the 806,000 figure is
larger than since 1932, and with the
exception of four years, is the largest
in the history of the organization.
