THE DRIVER'S Prevention of being accidentally thrown out of an automobile results in a 25 per cent reduction in deaths. This fact was presented following a study of the value of seat belts. Statistics have been reported to demonstrate the reduction of major- to-fatal injuries through the use of seat belts, Admittedly not a panacea for all injuries and deaths in automobile accidents, seat belt studies have indicated their capacity to reduce injuries graded as major-to-fatal, by at least 35 per cent. The risk of death or injury in an automobile accident is to a large extent dependent on the: frequency of ejection. In a recent study of injury-pro- ducing accidents, 13% per cent of the occupants had been ejected, and the fatality rate was five times greater in this group than among occupants who were not ejected. It is well-known that rear seat occupants have far less risk of ejection, and that the death rate is about half that of front-seat occu- pants. : In a series of 54,000 automobile accidents studied in one state, it was discovered that 3% per cent of the cars had seat belts available for one or more occupants. Also it was found that in the automobiles equipped with - belts, only a third of ihe belts were being used, Objections to seat belts include cost, clutter .in the car, and taking time to buckle and unbuckle them. There is public inertia; ignorance of the value of such a device, and just plain dislike of seat belts. Physicians inform their patients of the possibility of reducing - serious injury and death by the use of seat belts. There are eight reasons why a woman buys sométhing: because her husband says she can have it; because it will make her look thin; because it comes from Paris; because the neighbors can’t afford it; be- cause nobody else has one; because everybody - sks one; nd ue be- cause, iy x indebted to said estate are | Who's Afraid Of Halloween Witches?

Photo By Kozemchak Norm Smith Runs Across Rhode Island’s Slant On What Happened 200 Years Ago Hi Howard and Myra: Thought you might be inter- ested in this article my mother sent me. Have you been up to New England this summer? Spent the summer at a camp in Maine and when I returned found all my Dallas Posts wait- ing (made very interesting reading all at one time). © Phillis and'I want to say hello. Connecticut Norm Smith Editors Note: The clipping Norm forwarded is from the column “These Plantations” written by J. E. Clauson in 1929 for Rhode Island readers consumption. It follows: Rambling through some age-yel- lowed papers (which by the way are habit-forming and if you haven't fallen leave them alone) we lighted on a phrase which hatched out a line of reflection. The phrase was Susquehanna Purchase; the reflections boiled down to the con- clusion that the fathers of this fair patiimony were just as eager rainbow-chasers as any of their progeny of the present day down to and including 1961. ‘When times were good the get- rich-quickers and the better-your- conditioners found pickings easy. Prosperity always lay just over the horizon. Fat, cheap land for all and your money back if everything wasn’t just as represented. It wasn’t a bad gamble, either. The New Englanders lost the game, but by a narrow margin. Still, it was rainbow chasing, and the Rhode Islanders who took part would have been happier if they never had heard of the Susque- hanna. CONNECTICUT IDEA WHICH WENT WRONG You won't find much about the Susquehanna’ Purchase in the his- tory books. It was \one of those bad investments whose promoters preferred it should be forgotten. The scheme originated in Connecticut before the denizens of that ingeni- ous State had learned to make nutmegs of wood. Charles the Second and his ad- visers, who knew practically noth- ing about American geography, had given Connecticut in 1662 a charter under which it laid claim a hundred years later to a large chunk of what now is Pennsylvania. The alleged rights were to be sealed by purchase from the Indians and by settlement. In 1754 negotiations were begun for buying from the Delaware In- dians a huge stretch of wild scenery between the Delaware and Susque- hanna rivers. It comprised the greater part of what now is Luzerne, Wyoming, Susquehanna and Wayne Counties and a part of Bradford. The idea was that shares should be held by men of property and the lands sold to and settled by the little fellows. An organization of proprietors was effected, and dis- trict agents were named in Rhode Island. Job Randall and Dr. Sphratn Bowen were appointed in Provi- dence County, Beriah Brown, sher- iff and political boss, in Kings, Isaac Tripp in Kent and Josias Lyndon in Newport, They were the high pres- sure boys as well as collectors of taxes and levies. Investors with ash in their £7 Kings County some of the Hazards took a flyer and were followed by others, planters and the rest. New- port was just then riding on the crest of the prosperity wave and came across proper. A colony of 240 men, some with families, was collected in Rhode Island and Connecticut and shipped out. They established a settlment called Wyoming. At a meeting at Hartford in 1764 it was voted to forward 300 more men and 50 barrels of pork for the 240 already there. Back in Connecticut, where ‘the bad Indian days were all over, the promoters laid out their distant kingdom in great ease and security. The map of the land as they cut it up into townships shows the Rhode Island and Connecticut influence. One stream was named Narra- gansett River. Among the townships ‘were Providencce, Canonicus. Mas- sasoit, Squanto, Uncas, Sassacus and | Winslow. Of all this careful plan- ning hardly a familiar name re- mains, There is a- Windham, whiéh may have been suggested by Windham, Conn. Beriah Brown of North Kingstown set out for the Susquehanna Pur- chase once in 1762 with the laudable- object of “fitting himself to give his prospects the lowdown, but he didn’t get there. He reported that the Indian purchase had not been completed. He might also have said that the Delawares were an active menace. At just about the time of Brown's trip, in fact, they were getting ready to dig up the hatchet. They had sold some of their land twice, both times feeling terribly afterward about having disposed of hunting grounds, but not quite badly enough to return the 2000 pounds the New Englanders had paid. Then in 1763 they attacked Wyoming and killed 20 whites. The other buyers besides the Connecticut-Rhode Island syndicate were Pennsylvanians, They had an overlapping charter granted by Charles the Second to William Penn in 1681, 19 years later than the Connecticut ‘charter. They had bought from the Indians 18 years before the Susquehanna Pee negotiations were begun, and 1779 pushed an act through hots legislature confirming their claims to the section. STUBBORN YANKEES GET A COMPROMISE This made things exceedingly unpleasant for the New Englanders who had gone there from New Eng- land, braved Indians, cleared farms, and built houses. The proprietors—/ the Pennsylvania crowd—began dis- possessing the Yankees. What was known as the first Pennamite war started. The Yankees were dispos- sessed five times, and ‘every time | came back. The Revolution brought an inter- mission. After the independence an agreement was reached to leave the issue to five commissioners. This body sat at Trenton 41 days, finally reaching a decision that ‘“Connecti- cut has no right to the land in controversy.” But the Tonksos, still held out. Attempts to drive them from their holdings were begun, vigorously resisted, and lasted a year. within Pennsylvania. It was to include most of the Purchase. There never was a chance of carrying the scheme through, but so stubborn was the Yankee resistance that at length in 1787 a compromise was reached which established the claims of the proprietors, but gave credits for other lands to settlers driven from their clearings. As for the Rhode Island investors, i. we have seen notices of assessments, but none of dividend payments. You sometimes run across them in bun- dles of brittle old papers which once again we urge you to touch not, taste not, handle not. One morning the old-time judge in a western mining camp opened court with' the following announce- ment: “Gents, I have in hand a check— a bribe you might call it—from the plaintiff for $10,000 and , another from the defendant for $15,000. I propose to return $5,000 to the defendant, and decide the case strictly on its merits.” Pennsylvania Game Commission released 315,59 ringneck pheas- ants this. year; 15,410 quail; 6,536 wild turkeys; 11,858 mallard ducks, and 296 Canadian geese.
