Cat Heaven "Is Problem
For Springfield Council
BPRINOFIELD, Aug. . (AP) The
fate of 843 "Uvea" will be at stake
here soon when the city council
meets to consider aotlon to be taken
against Mr. and Mrs J. N. LcBeau's
"cat heaven."
The situation confiontlng the clvlo
fathers Is said to be one of the most
unusual ever to arise between a city
government and lta citizens. It all
came about In the following fashion:
Four years ago the LcBeaus start
ed caring for oocoslonsl stray cats
which happened to wander to their
house. In the course of the years they
have collected 38 feline friends, and
have established a Z'refuge" for the
animals in the back yard of their
home complete with heating units
to protect the cats from winter cold
and largo canvas awnings to shade
them from the rigors of roe hot sum
mer sun.
It's the refuge not the cats that
the city council Is most concerned
with, however. Neighbors of the L-

SAFETY CAMPAIGN
MONTREAL (UP) One of 'the
greatest drives ever undertaken In
Canada to reduce the motoring acci
dent and death toll Is to be opened
by police here.
The campaign, organized secretly
upon the orders of Director of Police
Fernand Dufrcsne, Involves appoint
ment of the first police "traffic en
gineer" In Canada, settling up of a
motoring "rogues gallery" and tak
lng of a complete census of acci
dents at street Intersections through'
out the city. It Is tho result of 6,441
city accidents In which 76 were kill
ed and 2.786 Injured last year. The
goa' of the campaign Is a 60 to 60
percent reduction In accidents.
The city's first police traffic en
gineer Is Howard M. A. Baker, who
was sent to tho Harvard university's
bureau for street traffic research to
study for one year. His official title
is "trafflo engineer of the Montreal
police department" the first such
police post ever created In Canada.
Baker's task will be to undertake
engineering studies and analyses of
accidents to ascertain their causes
and to develop remedial measures.
The studies Include volume statistics
of direction and turning movements
of vehicles, speed figures, vehicle and
pedestrian observance of traffic lights
and stop signs, pedestrian movements,
and parking practices.
Collision diagrams will be used to
show the accident experience at cer
tain areas and to bring out any out
standing similarity of accidents. Con
dition diagrams will be used to depict
the physical condition In hazardous
locations with a view of localizing
conditions that might have a direct
bearing on accidents, such as a high
hedge at a street corner which cuts
down visibility, causing right-angled
collisions. '
The motoring "rogues' gallery" will
contain the list of offenses commit
ted by all motorists. In future, when
a Montreal motorist is brought to
trial on some charge associated with
an auto accident, police will be able
to supply tho man's motoring "rec
ord" and If it Is bad It will go
against him.
The accident census Is being" made
to determine the most dangerous
spots In the city. An Investigation
and compilation of data on 324 In
tersections where four or more ac
cidents have occurred during the
post eight months have been com
pleted. The survey has taken eight
months.

the last depression has been paid
Today, there are no unemployed
workers In Sweden, he said.
"Your problems In America are
essentially the same ones we have
fought and solved In Sweden. But
here you do not have the common
understanding: the many different
races have not been sufficiently
melded," the Swedish statesman said.

City Toiler Beats Slump
By Building Farm on $10
By Capel McNash
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
CLEVELAND (UP) He doesn't wear buckskin clothes nor
muzzle-loading rifle, but Steve Kozel,
endless energy and made a go of It,
Four years ago Kozel had only
$10, a wife and three children. Now
he has a house, a farm, two cows,
one sow, 26 chickens, seven geese,
ten ducks, a rabbit, one police dog
and' two cats. He still has the wife
and children, and they are healthier
and happier than ever In the country.
Kozel Is a Hungarian-born uphol
sterer who likes to smell fresh air.
When his business slackened four
years ago he determined to get
farm. He took his 910 to John B.
Ovlatt, a Cleveland attorney, who
had a farm to sell for 1.500. Ovlatt
was sufficiently impressed with Ko
zel's energy to sell him the land for
the $10 down payment and a promise
to pay 9100 In IS weeks. .
The upholsterer took his family
to the farm, built a one-room win
dow l&ss shack, and met the $100 pay
ment. Then he out down trees, dug
up clay and built a snug cabin.
The winter would be cold.
He improved the farm for the ani
mals he would buy. He bought them
by going without shows, cigarettes
or new clothes. He built a tractor
from discarded parts of four old mo
tor cars.
Things looked fine for the Indus
trious upholsterer until his cabin
burned In midwinter. Neighbors, who
admired his ambition, raised $25 so
he could buy lumber to start his
third houser-the trim white one he
occupies with his family now.
Kozel, who is 85, says he would
not go back to the city to live.
"When the house burned down, I
felt like it, but my wife kept me
from it. I never liked the city so
much. Working around this place
has made me fe'el like a new man
and the kids love It I"
The children Stephen, 12; Marion,
10, and Robert, 6 romp the fields,
Jump In the hay and make pets of
the farm's 49 -animal menagerie
When It's winter there Is always ,
the possibility of corn to pop or j
taffy to pull. Alert, tanned, husky, I
they wouldn't trade a foot of the
farm for a street full of city amuse
ments. I
Kozel's wife didn't like the country i
before her husband made his rural
experiment. !
"Now she likes to milk and keep
her own flower garden." Kozel said.
"I guess-there's nothing would get
her back -to the city now."
Kozel ,s farm lies Just south of
Cleveland, near Medina, Ohio. In the
vicinity several hundred other work
ers, prompted by depressions and re
cessions, have settled on small farms
spurning relief in most cases and
from their farms an wrenching a
living that the factories cannot give
them.
But none started on as frayed a
"shoestring" as Kozel.
