Tornadoes Said To Chicago 'U.P.I Tornadoes are on the increase and some of the worst tornado weeks are still ahead for 1956. Weather forecasters said 1956 was expected to have a bad tor nado record. They explained that since 1950 the mounting rate of twisters hay been spectacular. Since 1950. when the annual average was about 150, here is what's been happening: 300 tor nadoes in 1951, a drop to 270 in 1952. a total of 532 in 1953. 690 in 1954 and an all-time high of' 870 in 1955.

Insurance rec ords show May and June to be the most active tornado months. Nature produces some terrify ing storms, but tornadoes ate the most vicious and can occur any time and any place in the coun try. Forty-five states reported twisters in 1954. George R. Faulds, who has re viewed hundreds of tornado losses for American Manufactur ers Mutual Insurance Company, said that how you fare in a twister depends on the severity of the storm, how quickly you find shelter and just plain luck. "Safest place during a tornado is a storm cellar or cyclone cel lar, but if you don't have one, head for your basement," Faulds advised. "Since the storms gen erally move from a southwester ly direction, crouch along the wall in the southwest corner." Per Car! Bring the Whole Family!. Bring Your Friends! . . ......i.-in. r-.
