Los Angeles St. Anaheim 2409 'Take It Easy on the Fourth – Be Alive On the Fifth,' Says Safety Council Chicago, June 16—Going somewhere over the Fourth of July? If you are, then plan your trip safely. But even if you stay home, keep safety in mind for the Fourth of July holiday—one of the most dangerous weekends of the year. That is the advice of the National Safety Council, which is coordinating a nationwide campaign to hold down the usual upsurge in accidental deaths during the Independence Day celebration. One hundred and thirty national organizations, as well as state and city public officials, are cooperating in the effort. Motor vehicle accidents lead the list of holiday hazards, the Council said. Drowning from swimming and fishing accidents is the second biggest risk. Other deaths are due to fireworks and firearms, sunstroke and heat exhaustion, food poisoning, falls and miscellaneous accidents. The death toll for the month of July last year was 8,700, the Council said. While it is impossible to determine the exact number of deaths from all causes occurring during the Fourth of July holiday, the Council said the total was well above the average for other days of the month. The Council expects more pleasure-seeking holiday motorists to pile into more cars and roll up more miles during this one weekend celebration than ever before in the nation's history. More than 33 million motor vehicles will be more pleasure." On the move during the holiday. The increased number of new cars on the road and the substantial rise in gasoline consumption this year indicate a heavy death toll—unless everyone is fully aware of the holiday hazards and makes a real effort to avoid them. "There are two ways to hold down deaths during a holiday period such as the Fourth," said Ned H. Dearborn, president of the Council. "One is for police, beach guards and others who have some authoritative control over public safety to be especially alert and vigorous in their enforcement of sane rules of public behavior. "The other is for all of us to recognize that holidays are danger days, and to drive a car, walk across the street, swim, fish or otherwise conduct ourselves in a safe and prudent manner. "If everyone would keep in mind the words 'Take It Easy on the Fourth—Be Alive on the Fifth,' this Fourth of July would bring much less tragedy and much more pleasure." Assembly Outl’ws Sale of Crime Comic Books Sacramento (WNS)—The State Assembly today refused to reconsider its 60 to 2 vote by which it passed Friday a bill outlawing the sale of “crime comic books.” The bill remains passed and will now be referred to the senate. Kern county Assemblyman Joe C. Lewis, made the motion to have the house about face on its origi-nal passage of the measure. Although it might be constitutional, Lewis contended, the bill could limit the rights of a free press. The bill makes the sale of comic books to persons under 18 a misdemeanor. “If a justice of the peace can tamper with freedom of the press,” Lewis said, “it’s something I fear.” “If this is passed the Bible shouldn’t be sold,” Lewis argued, “there is plenty of violence on those pages.” Lewis alluded to the story of Samson tearing down the temple with his bare hands. The Kern county representative was supported by South San Francisco assemblyman Richard Dolwig. “There is a serious question of constitutionality,” Dolwig stated. He argued that a newspaper might be prosecuted if it published a comic strip merely showing two persons “squaring off” against each other. Willard M. Huyck, Beverly Hills, author of the measure defended his bill. He said the legislative counsel’s office has already rendered an opinion declaring the matter constitutional. According to Huyck, Los Angeles has a similar city ordinance and courts have on two occasions denied suits for injunction against the recently adopted ordinance. Demand Halt to Federal Land Acquisition Here Sacramento (WNS)—A demand for legislation to halt federal land acquisitions in California was voiced here by Senator Edwin J. Regan of Weaerville. Declaring the federal government now owns 47 million acres of the state’s total of 100 million acres, the senator urged passage of a bill which would require the consent of the legislature before the government could make any further acquisitions. The senate governmental efficiency committee referred the proposal to an interim committee which will study the problem. Would Extend Eminent Domain to ment which would extend the power of eminent domain to sewage districts. Assemblyman Randal Dickey of Alameda, author of the measure, said the amendment would grant to sewage districts the same authority to acquire property by condemnation as now held by water districts. Assembly Knocks Racial Lines in Legal Profession Sacramento (WNS)—A bill prohibiting local bar associations from barring prospective members on account of race, color, or creed has cleared the state assembly. The bill is authored by Assemblyman Robert Condon, Walnut Creek. Condon was opposed by Assemblyman H. Allen Smith, Los Angeles. Smith contended that the legislature was considering a law which would direct a private organization in the formation of its by-laws. He said the bill was introduced to force the Los Angeles County Bar Association to accept members from the colored race. He denied he is a member of the association although he is a lawyer. Assemblyman John Evans, Los Angeles, said the particular association in question is a “closed shop” and unless a lawyer is a member he cannot work. Evans urged passage of the bill. Condon stated there was no real opposition to the bill and he felt lawyers should lead the rest of the people in banning discrimination. Table Proposal To Light Up Bars; Taverns Sacramento (WNS)—A proposal to require more adequate lighting in taverns and bars was tabled here by the senate governmental efficiency committee. Senator Clyde Watson of Orange county had sponsored the measure at the request of temperance organizations. Livestock provides the largest selling source of cash income for the United States farmer.

As this young lady learns to use a training switchboard, she'll also learn many things that will be mighty important to good service. All through her training she'll see how operators make courtesy and helpfulness a normal part of their jobs. And the same spirit is present as other telephone people learn their new skills. 1.

On stubby poles like these, linemen learn to use their new climbing equipment. This is just one of the more than one hundred courses that telephone people study in towns large and small—up and down the Coast. In 1948, thousands of employees received training. That means thousands of men and women better able to furnish good service to you. 3. On-the-job-training here in the West is typified by this "student" who is learning the workings of a trouble indicator frame—an automatic detective that constantly makes sure the lines on its "beat" are giving good service. Even experienced employees take refresher courses like this to keep up-to-date...and keep learning their way up the ladder. 4. Good service for you comes from telephone people who know their jobs. You can help them serve you best by making sure you always have the right number in mind before calling, leaving a little time between calls, giving the called person time to answer.
