County Council announced its inâ€" tention in a resolution this week to ask the federal and provincial gov- ernments for financial assistance in the construction of a series of cold storage plants. A copy will be for- warded to Premier Hepburn and the federal minister of agriculture. Each plant would be a cooper- ative business and would be owned by the farmers who subscribed. Money which the government would advance on a long-term loan would be paid back by the co-operative. Reeve Heisey of Markham village where the plan was sponsored, said that the government has already assisted in construction of a plant at Simcoe, Ont, that has been enlarged to three times its original size and is :1 mark- ed financial success. The plant would be used to store fruits, tomatoes, and berrie; until prices were higher than during the market glut of harvest. If tomatoes could be kept from the time they were 10 cents a bushel until they were commanding 20 cents a pound the plant would pay for itself in a few years, the reeve said. Reeve Heisey pointed out that the plan is not new. There are cold storage plants at Simcoe, Aldershot and Thornbury that have already established themselves as moneyâ€" makers for the farmers who use them. wheel-let om): stands or sits: Customerâ€"“I’ve brought that last pair of trousers to know I sit a lot.” Tailorâ€"“Yes, and I hope you’ve brought the bill to be receipted.

You makes a difference SAFETY EXPERTS ADVISE PEDESTRIANS AND DRIVERS Six prominent safety officials, out- standing in their efforts to bring a- bout a reduction. of traffic deaths and injuries, were interviewed-here over the week-end in connection with the highway safety campaign being conducted by the Ontario department of highways. J. P. Bickell, registrar of motor vehicles for the province, comment- ing on the statements made by these officials, was Warm in his praise for the work these men and their organ- izations have done in promoting- safe- ty on the highways and- said: “Their statements anci Opiniomls on what motorists and' pedestrians can do as individuals in reducing accidents and fatalities may be taken as authori- tative and. sound, for their knowledge is based on many years of active and expert study of the problems of highway safety.” W. G. Robertson, general manager, Ontario Motor League: “Less haste on the part of drivers and; less heedr- lessness on the part of pedestrians would greatly reduce the prevailing traffic accident toll. Motorists, bi- cyclists and pedestrians alike must realize that the way to escape from traffic accidents lies in alertness and the proper spirit of give and take â€"With considerably more give than takeâ€"between all classes of road users, together with exercise by all of that sound' common sense necessâ€" ary to safety on the streets and highways. Only by constant vigil- ance om the part of each individual, whether driving or Walking can traf-‘ fic accidents be avoided.” Inspector Edward C. Dunn, Traffic Division, Toronto Police Department: “Ontario and Toronto accident re- cordls reveal that about 60 per cent CE the causes of accidents may be attributed to carelessness and neglect on the part of motorists and the thoughtless actions of pedestrians. Motorists may extend‘ the required cooperation in reducing accidents by obeying traffic signals, by keeping SYMPOSIUM REVEALS in the proper lane of traffic and driving at all times at a speed‘ that is safe, having due regard to traffic and weather con4.ifinns. T'fle“ 4‘9"” extend every possible courtesy to‘ pedestrians, especially elderly people and childa‘en and particularly those crossing at street intersections. “Pedestrians can cooperate by crossing at street intersections and, where there are traffic signals, cross with the green light only. They should! refrain from jaywalking and crossing intersections diagonaily, and- should never step out from behind a parked car~wfithout first making sure that the way is clear.” A. E. Lewis, provincial secretary, Garage Operators" Association of On- tario: “To reduce motor vehicle ac- cidents, motorists should) have their brakes, lights, steering mechanism and tires inspectedl periodically. If adjustments consistent with safety are required, they should] he made at once. Motorists can definitely aid in reducing accidents by having such inspection work done periodically by a reliable garage. “Pedestrians should realize that a motor car travelling at only 20 miles an hour is still covering 30 feet per second â€"â€" about six times as much distance as the person who is walk- ing. Ability to judge distance and speed is something every pedestrian can develop, and when: walking near motor vehicle traffic make due al- lowance for speed and distance.” H. G. Fester, genemal manager, Onâ€" 1 tario Safety League: “Most traffic accidents are caused] by momentary inattention or impatience on the part of motorists and pedestrians. In the case of the former, it may be due ,to day-dreaming, back-seat driving, alcohol, business or family worries. The remedy for such conditions can Only be found in the field.l of sysâ€" tematic safety education; beginning- in the early school years and: car- ried on to maturity. This must be supplemented by vigorous and impar- tial enforcement of traffic laws.” R. B. Morley, general manager, In- dustrial Accident Prevention Associ- ations: “For street. and highway safety, there are three rules. The first is look, the second is Look, and the third is LOOK; and thOSe rules may be applied with equal force to pedestrians, cyclists, motorists and the drivers of horse-drawn vehicles. “The requisites for a good: accident prevention campaign, so far as high- ways are concenmed, must include good automobiles that are maintainâ€" ed in proper mechanical condition. Next is an adequate policing of all highways, coupled With an effort to check minor infractions so that major infractions may be reduced. Beyond this, a constant campaign of educa- tion is desirable and that should in- clrude all of the schools, coupled with education in the mechanism of a motor car and the principles of safe driving in the higher grades of our HOW DE-ATH AND INJURIES MAY BE GREATLY REDUCED schools.” Warren Hastings, editor, “Canadâ€" ian Motorist”: “Over 30 years ago, the fathers of the Ontario Motor League in their wisdom wrote into its charter that ‘a reasonable regard for the rights of others" would pre- clude discourteous, unsporting, antiâ€" socilal behavior at the wheel, which includes all but a fraction of the manifold‘ forms of reckless and other- wise dangerous driving. It would; preclude, too, jaywalking. and other practices of pedestrians that are men- aces to themselves and others. There- fore, realistic attempts- to curtail traffic casualties will include p-r0vi- sions designed to discOurage the dangerous ‘laissez-faire‘ practices of pedestrians. “Because we are all either sporad- ically or habitually unreasonable, Mr. Average Good' Citizen causes. 85 per cent of the traffic accidents. It is ‘apparent then that. all of us must lb-e more prudenrt in. our rbehavior on the streets and highways if the la- mentable toll of traffic is to be conâ€" siderably reduced.” ' EASY TO GUESS THE ENDING When you see the heading, “Tried! to change in a boa ,” all that is ne- cessary is to look at “the bottom of the paragraph to see if the bodies have been recoveredâ€"Guelph Mer- cury.
