Evangelical Church— Training Need Is Stressed Youthful bicyclists, who will be the drivers of tomorrow, must be taught traffic safety and traffic rules for bicycles, Dr. E. B. Mc- Diniel, president of the Oregon State Motor Association, said in urging parents to supervise more carefully the use of bicycles by their sons and daughters. Greater Responsibility Needed “If parents will assume greater responsibility in connection with such bicycle use, many of the 700 deaths and 35,000 injuries annually to bicyclists will be prevented,” Dr. McDaniel said. “About half of these involve children from 5 to 14 years ct age.” “Here are several suggestions for parents, recommended by the Am erican Automobile Association with which the Oregon State Motor As sociation is affiliated: Proper Equipment Necessary “See that all proper safety equip ment is included when bicycles are purchased. Make regular inspections to assure that this equipment is in safe operating condition at all times. Cooperate in enforcing rules and regulations issued by schools and police. Prohibit younger chil dren from riding in busy traffic streets until they have developed skill. See that all learning is dene in parks, playgrounds or other safe places away from traffic. Explain what might happen if unnecessary chances are tak^n, or if foolish tricks are performed; and prohibit smaller brothers and sisters from riding on the handlebars or cross bar.” —Harvey R.

Mr. and Mrs. Public in June had a “real income" of >1.33, or an in crease of thirty-three cents on the dollar over the same 1940 month.

Cash income of Mr. and Mrs. Pub lic in June was >1.38 for every >1 a year earlier. This gain of thirty eight cents on the dollar resulted from the following changes per dol lar: wages up fifty-five cents and salaries twenty-five cents; invest ment income was up nine cents and other income was up twenty- nine cents on the dollar. Rents in June were up two cents over a year ago. Food was up five cents, but clothing was up one cent. Miscellaneous items were eight cents higher than in June ot 194».
