(UFI Telephoto) Formula To Find Feet Per Second Is Given A simple formula for chang ing miles per hcur speed into feet per second has been giv en by Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin. The chief explained that the danger of speed given in miles per hour is ' rarely un derstandable to a driver, but speed reduced to the distance a vehicle travels per second becomes frightening to any one sensible enough to realize the difficulty of stopping. To use the formula, add one-half the speed the vehicle is traveling to the speedome ter reading. The total be comes the feet the car is trav eling per second. For example, if the car's speedometer reading is 40 miles per hour. Take one-half of 40 and add it (20) to the speedometer reading-the total is 60, the number of feet the car travels in a second when driving 40 miles per hour. One second' is the reaction time between recognizing dan ger and applying the brakes, the chief reminded drivers. "Too many drivers have their first accident, and some times their last, before they accept the fact that they can't stop on a dime," Champlin said. Newspaper Plant Jobs Plentiful Washington -rtJPD- The , La bor Department has reported that employment continued to rise in large newspaper plants in fiscal 1959 but climbed only half as fast as in the newspaper industry as a whole.

The bureau said employ ment in large commercial printing plants also rose by seven-tenths of 1 per cent. The entire commercial print ing industry had a 1.9 per cent job increase.
