going to do, but you can never

The best way to stay alive is

I've been driving a bus for 22
years and I've never had an ac
cident. I'm cautious and lucky.
I've had my share of close calls.

Finland Candidate
Friend of Russia
Helsinki, Finland (U.R)
Premier Urho Kekkonen, a
friend of Soviet Russia, emerged
today from Finland's presidential
elections as the nation's most
powerful political figure. He is
almost certain to be elected pres
ident next month.
Kekkonen's Agrarian Party
gained the most votes and the
most seats in the electoral body
which will name a president
Feb. 15 on the basis of final un
official results from the two-day
elections.
Kekkonen captured votes
which' heretofore had gone to
the Communist Peoples Demo
crats, But he was virtually as
sured of winning support of the
Communist electors because of
his proved ability to get along
with neighboring Russia.
The results showed the Agrar
ians winning 89 seats of the 300
in the Electoral Assembly. The
Communists, who finished third
in the six-party race, captured
57 seats.
Kekkonen is almost certain to
pick up the additional five votes
necessary for the 151 vote ma
jority to be named president.
Juho Paasikivi, 85, present
president and most revered
statesman in Finland, is not a
candidate for re-election al
though the Russians asked him
to run because of his friendli
ness to Moscow.
don't think there is such a thing
as pleasure driving any more.
. I'd rather take a bus out than
drive my own car. There are
just too many cars on the road
these days and too many care
less drivers. It seems to me there
are an awful lot of people driv
ing cars who shouldn't be al
lowed behind the wheel. They're
phsically, mentally or emotion
ally unfit.
You'd be surprised at the num
ber of hard-of-hearing drivers I
encounter. I blow my horn to
pass and the car ahead doesn't
mcve, as if the driver doesn't
hear. So I turn on my lights and
he moves over.
Prefers Women
Speaking of passing, I would
rather pass a woman driver than
a man. A woman might not han
dle the car as expertly as her
husband but as a rule she's more
cautious. Lots of times she has
her children with her and may
be it's her maternal instinct.
We hear a lot about the causes
of accidents carelessness,
drunken driving, speeding and
downright selfishness. A little
common courtesy would go a
long way toward cutting down
the death toll.
But there are some specific
things, too. I don't think the
average driver uses his rear
view mirror or his side mirror
often enough. Lots of cars don't
even have side mirrors. Com
mercial drivers like me learn
that mirrors are as important
as the windshield. -
Power steering is a big help
sometimes. If you have to hit
the shoulder of the road, power
steering makes it a lot safer
and easier.
Check Shoulder
I think motorists should check
the shoulder now and then so if
they have to go out on it they'll
know what to expect. I drive the
Chicago-Toledo run, 242 miles,
and it's mighty comforting to
hit the . Ohio Turnpike. The
shoulders are wider than my
bus.
I'm dubious" about automatic
gear shifts.' I think you can stop
faster with, the old standard
shift, using the motor to brake
the car and fanning the brakes
at the same time.
' A lot has been said pro and
con about the horsepower
they're building into cars these
days. It enables you to pass
more quickly but it might en
courage some people to pass
when they shouldn't.
You have to respect all that
power. The scenicruiser bus I
drive has 300 horsepower.

Buenos Aires !U.R) Foreign
exchange speculators took a
beating Tuesday when the Amer

market from . Monday's all-time
high of 45.75 pesos per dollar.
The exchange dipped to 38.50
pesos in a few hours. The drop
appeared due to a buyers
"strike" against the record quo
tation. For several hours, brok
ers would only sell and refused
to buy dollars.
