Wetzel Carrolltown | THE UNION PRESS-COURIER, [DRIVE CAUTIOUSLY AT INTERSECTIONS MESSNER ADVISES ists were urged last week by Deputy Secretary of Revenue, Otto F. Messner, to traverse stret intersections with ex- treme caution. “The most frequent scene of motor | vehicie traffic accidents in this Com- | monwealth is at street intersections, | he said. “There, 30.7 percent of all | accidents occurred during 1938. “Analysing this group we find that they accounted for 15.7. percent of the total fatal accidents, and 32.8 percent cf the total non-fatal accidents during the year. “Rural intersections, however, ac- counted for only 3.7 percent of the fa- tal accidents, 4.8 percent of the non- fatal accidents and 6.7 percent of the property damage accidents.” The difference in the accident rate between rural and city street inter- sections is beleived to be due to the Tract that most country crossroads tra- fic lanes are regulated by Stop signs, wheras the right of way at city streets frequently is left to the judgment of the operator. The second location or accidents in order of frequency, the records show, is found to be between cross streets. Such locations accounted for 24.2 per- cent of all Pennsylvania accidents in 1938. A breakdown of figures reveals these accounted for 26.1 percent of the total fatal accidents and 29.1 percent of the total of non-fatal accidents. Fifty-one percent of the fatal-acci- dents in this group involved the pedes- trian. Next in order of frequency are those ceccurrring on a straight stretch of ru- ral road. These are responsible for 21.4 | | Harrisburg -— Pennsylvania motor- | | { | | E.ll at the Fair NEW YORK—One of the most striking sculptures at the New York World's Fair 1939 is pictured above.

Shaw, Pennsylvania Secretary of Health, to- day said that the 502,853 total for 1938 probably would be doubled for 1939. “I am determined that these drugs, which are the means of curing syp- hilis, shall be made available to every person who needs f‘them,” said Dr. Shaw. “While progress has been made, there is still room for improvement. “Demand for medication is expected fo increase in direct proportion to pub- lic recognition of the need for ac- tive treatment of syphilis.
