Dr. Harold Erickson, state health officer, said the rate was 60.9- per 100,000 population, compared to the all-time high of 109.9 in 1941. Automobile deaths took the heaviest toll with 466 fatalities. Home accidents took 219 lives; public accidents 209, and occu pational deaths 149. sition to 7 out of 24 proposals. In the past only an occasional lone dissent has marred the usual unanimous approval of resolutions. The two resolutions getting the most "no" votes were one opposing United Nations mem bership of Red China and urg ing American withdrawal from the U.N. if Rid China ever is admitted, and another' opposing registration of firearms. 20 CENTURY-FOX ALAN CLIFTON SOPHIA LAPP - WEBB IORENC of the land where romance was ft V A I l$f. 711? born... out of tie sensuous excitement I JZZ,,J I "ft- s yM that is Greece...comes an ' ITsC!!1- j-fjf adventurous love story that will j ?h-' 'fJ&vTi 1 f" aCf live'til the seas run dry! ylUl' "-A"- ff ' ' iSSw.
