In the interest of public safety, the American Automobile AMocl&tlon haa rerommended that nil of It 800 af filiated motor club and state Associa tions thtrmighmit the United close It membership roll to motorists oon Tlcted of serious violations of driving rules. The policy of the nation. motoring body was contained In a resolution sdopted last week at the A. A. A. na tional convention In Chicago. The resolution reads as follows: "State associations and A. A. A. clubs are urged to give serious con- i ldcmtlon to the adoption of a policy whereby memberehip In their organi sation would be closed to persons whose licenses have been revoked, to persons convicted of drunken drlv lng. leaving the scene of accident, and to those guilty of other major violations having direct and Import ant relationship to public surety, "Action by local affiliated clubs will be necessary before the policy becomes binding." said The, p. Henry of Detroit. Mich., president of the A. A. A. "I believe, however, that It will be Indorsed by the great majority of our clubs and etat associations, Our membership Is on the whole composed of the more responsible and civic minded type of car owner and I hove no doubt that they wtll welcome any move to separate the A. A. A. emblem entirely from reck lessness In car operation In any man ner, shape or form." Other features of the A. A. A. safety program to be launched on the basis of convention action include: 1. Safety work of a continuing na ture as against temporary drives and campaigns. 8.

A. A. safcty-repon Ihlllty law; effective state drivers' license law and other uniform safety regulation throughout all the states. S. Application of sound engineering to highway deelgn and traffic con rot; such as. widening of highways, eliminating of grade crossings, separ ations of highway grades, use of ped estrian Islands and construction of divided highways, elevated highways and highway sidewalks where warranted. 9- A -F 4Mf --r .-.Mttn X.t 1-MINUTE SAFETY TALKS fly Don Herold E FINE FOR MEETING Med ford Post No. IB American Le gion held Its regular meeting Nov. 30, In the nature of a houaewarm Ing at Its new quarters In the K.

It la the first show of this kind ever to travel Pacific coast hleh- ways by motor truck In modern times and revives for today's audi ences the oldest known form of theatrical entertainment. Fred Johnaon, local manager for Shell Oil company, announces that all performances of the puppets will be froe, part of Shell's Christmas carnival which has becomo one of the west's big annual holiday events. He will give full details later as to where and when this novel attrac- lon will be on view. Everyone la cordially Invited to be present and enjoy an event the like of which I they may never be able to see again. Because of the historical and edu cational i background, special per formances for schools are being ar ranged. In viewing Shell's Christmas pup pets, local residents will be turn ing the pages of history backward for hundreds and even thousands of years. Puppets have been found In tombs and rillns built long before the Christmas era. It was In the middle ages, the daya of chivalry when knights were bold, that puppets reached their greatest popularity. Shows wsndered tho highways of Europe, playing In market places. Shell Is the first organization In the west to send a troupe of pup pets on an extensive tour giving free performances, and extraordinary Interest has been aroused according to Johnson., I i I A ftirtute aJo we "were a ctouple oi human beinjg -but now ve are iut a coupie ok tms years -frJJS zW Static JACKSONVILLE HEALTH HELPERS MEET DEC. 3 JACKSONVILLE, Nor. 30.

When the totals of this year's auto mobile injuries and deaths are added up next January 1, don't be one of some 36,000 killed and a million injured by automobiles. Smart people look figures in the face nd try to learn how to avoid becoming one. Others not so smart Ignore figures and yield to Nature's soothing illusion that nothing can happen to THEM. Nature kids us all with a false sense of security. Nature doesn't care what happens to us as individuals. But WE DO. If we read that nearly 16,000 persons were killed or injured walking on country roads in 1934, we can be surer of staying out of that class by walking on the left side when we walk on country roads, facing traffic If we read that there are more than three times as many accidents during : the evening rush hours as there are during the morning rush hours, we can drive more than THREE TIMES AS CAREFULLY in the evening as we do in the morning. Smart people use last year's statistics as a guide to this year's conduct. What do you learn from the following: Number of accidents: from exceeding speed limit, 123,980; driving on wron, side of road. 92,570; driving off road way, 60,590; reckless driving, 53,290; pedestrians crossing between inter- . sections, 72,070; coming from behind -parked car, 36,060; crossing against a signal, 32,960? By watching statistics gathered by such authorities as The Travelers In surance Company, we can improve on Nature and stay out of trouble spot and avoid dangerous driving and walk ing habits.
