PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1948 New winter accident facts, based on research by National Safety Council, reveal alarming increase of skidding and poor visibility crashes during snowy, icy weather. Authorities urge equalized brakes, using tire chains, windshield wipers, defrosters, good lights and lower speeds to minimize the added seasonal hazards of inadequate stop-and-go traction on snow or ice and reduced visibility. The Editorial Page- Dangerous Game The 15 mile an hour speed limit set up for veterans' housing projects in and around Kansas City may, in the long run, defeat the original purpose of saving children's lives. Posters urge "Drive carefully! Be safe—Not Sorry!" directing their message to drivers in these areas. However, not enough effort is being made toward teaching the children to respect and fear the motor car. In Sunflower Village, school children make a game of running into the street in front of approaching automobiles, throwing up their arms and laughing when the startled motorist stops. They realize the drivers creeping along at a reduced speed can come to a sudden halt. The worst feature is parents who occasionally join their children in the laughter, causing the children to believe they are "cute." Some day, these low-speed sanctuaries will be closed and the families will move into cities where drivers, moving at a legal 35 miles an hour, cannot stop when these pranks are played. Educating children to their duties as pedestrians and instilling in them a respect for the danger in moving automobiles may reduce future motor fatalities. The responsibility for this training lies solely with the parents. —John C. Butler. There is a difference between pulling your weight and throwing your weight. Underway Dear Editor: E. O.T.'s letter in Monday's Daily Kansan concerns a subject close to my heart. An exterior bulletin board for the University Museum of Art, similar to E.O.T.'s description, has been planned since September. I am happy to say that such a bulletin board, complete with lighting, has been designed in Professor Beal's office. The design has been officially approved and is now in process of fabrication. Installation is to be made sometime this winter. John Maxon Director, Museum of Art. Clarification Dear Editor: Due to several inquiries following the general meeting of the K.U. council for UNESCO on Dec. 7, we feel that at least three points need clarification. (1) UNESCO is not an exclusive organization. Organizational representation is stressed in the constitution but it is done only to make the body as representative of the campus as possible.Persons interested in furthering UNESCO objectives, and not affiliated with organizations represented in the council, may have their names submitted to the secretariat for certification to membership by John J. Killinger, corresponding secretary. (2) Foreign students may be certified as honorary members by submitting their names to the corresponding secretary. As such, they may participate in all council proceedings on the same basis as regular members, with one exception. In case of a roll-call vote or secret ballot, their voice will be excercised by the vote of the official delegate from the International club. (3) UNESCO is not political in Flu Shots Still Available "Students who wish to insure themselves of a merrier Christmas may go to Watkins hospital any day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to have influenza vaccinations."

St. Says Trade Race Can Cause War - Henry VIII-Burger - Chow Mein - Ribs - Dinners - Short Orders Competition for trade, resources, and such related things, are likely to lead to war, Walter Kollmorgen, professor of geography, told the world problems class of Liberty Memorial High School Dec. 9, in a talk on geo-politics.

Many countries want to get ahead, and none can sit back and let the world go by in these times," Professor Kollmorgen said. Speaking of the present world situation, Professor Kollmorgen said he does not believe we can balance Western Europe against Russia. He said the United States, not the Soviet Union, has what the world wants. the popular sense of the word. The organization simply urges that each person do whatever he can within the sphere of his competence, either as an individual or through organizations to which he belongs, to promote the establishment of that human environment at home and abroad in which political and economic settlements can peacefully be made.
