Sheriffs Reflect on Living
A reflective license plate could save your life some
day.
License plates that reflect light from headlights pre
vent many rear-end and head-on collisions at night, when
most accidents happen.
Last month, the 18,500-member National Sheriffs’ as
sociation unanimously endorsed reflective plates at its
annual convention.
Sheriff Malcom McLeod of Lumberton, N.C., the as
sociation’s new president, said: “We think they are an
excellent law enforcement and safety aid. We wish they
were used in every state.”
Since May, reflective plates have been endorsed at
two large gatherings of safety experts — the 13-state
Midwest States Civilian - Military Traffic Safety con
ference, and the Western Civilian and Military Safety
Coordinators conference.
Here are the facts which convinced the professionals
that reflective plates prevent accidents:
1. They make parked or disabled cars visible more
than 1,000 feet sooner than cars with ordinary painted
plates.
2. Burned-out rear lights are one of the five most
frequent vehicle defects. Without rear lights, a slow-
moving car is prone to a collision from the rear. Re
flective license plates don’t burn out.
3. Burned-out front lights are another of the five
most common vehicle defects. A burned-out headlight
makes a “one-eyed” car. Which light is burned out? Is
the car over the center line? A reflective plate between
headlights gives the answer.
We agree with the professionals. Reflective license
plates are a good thing. We think all states should have
them, not just the 17 (and the District of Columbia)
which do now.

Will the Real Sen.
Neuberger Stand Up!
Along with others we have
waited for an explanation from
Sen. Maurine Neuberger about
her vote to stifle further explora
tion of the Bobby Baker scandal
even if it trod on a few Sena
torial toes. Evidently this ex
planation is not to be forthcom
ing.
It seems rather inconsistent
that a Senator who has publicly
made such a show of concern
about immorality in government,
mislabeling packages and the
color of margarine should be so
indifferent to the really big prob
lem of peddling influence and
perhaps exposing outright graft
and corruption.
In a way, Sen. Wayne Morse
has shown himself to be the more
intelligent of our two Senators—
he didn’t even show up to vote
on the resolution at all.

To Adopt a Child
Or Not to Adopt
Sometimes a couple will raise
a relative or stepchild but won’t
bother to adopt the child for
mally and legally.
Such arrangements can be
very harmful to the child, legally
speaking.
Adoption as we know it was
not part of the old common law
we inherited from England. It
has been called “a creature of
statute” which means our laws
covering adoption were passed by
the legislature.
A child legally adopted by a
person or couple usually as
sumes the parents' name and
by law becomes the parents'
heir just as if he or she were
a natural child of those parents.
To adopt a child legally, one
must file a petition with the cir
cuit court in the county where
the petitioner resides. Also, there
must be a written consent of the
child’s own parents, guardian or
responsible government official.
If the child is 14 or older, the
child must also consent to being
adopted.
The judge must then be satis
fied of the genuineness of the
consent, the moral character of
the prospective parents, their
ability to support the child and
that the adoption is in the best
interests of the child.
The adoption laws are strictly
enforced. The courts will not
recognize any informal arrange
ment. Many children who were
brought up by loving, well-mean
ing people, who even have told
the children that they were
adopted, have been deprived of
an inheritance that their foster
parents undoubtedly wanted them
to have, simply because the foster
parents had not complied with
the letter of the law by having
a formal adoption.
An adoption is not a “legal for
mality.” It is a legal protection
to the child and, perhaps to a
lesser extent, to the adoptive
parents.

may change the application of
the law.)

Church Convention
Closes at Pocatello
The four-day district convention
of Jehovah’s Witnesses came to
a conclusion last week at Poca
tello high school auditorium as
2,179 persons listened to the Bible
warning in the highlight dis
course, “ ’Peace Among Men of
Good Will’ or Armageddon —
Which?” delivered by F. W.
Franz, vice president of the Watch
Tower Bible and Tract society.
“ ’Upon earth, peace among men
of good will’ — that has been a
famous quotation for the past 19
hundred years,” said Mr. Franz.
“But what has been its effect
upon the world of mankind? As
far as international affairs are
concerned, the years of world
peace have been few since angels
first said those soothing words.
From 1481 BCE to the end of
World War II there have been
only 268 years of world peace.”
Charles Dodge, local presiding
minister, reported that all re
