THI KBY WAIT CITIZBM Page 8 Hickenlooper Denies GOP Is Losing Votes Of Farmers m " Safety Notes By BILL 8188 Sw wrt rU** Dft “Night must fall, but most count less Key West pedestrian* fall with nr* That question was asked today by Dave Davenport as be discuss ed the importance of the Night Traffic Hazards program current ly sponsored by the Key West Sa fety Council and the National Sa fety Council. Davenport said that from Octo ber through March, one-third of all pedestrian deaths occur between 5 and • p. m., hours that are usually or dark during these months. He Mamed a combination of dark mss end carelessness. “Unfortunately, we can’t change the laws of nature,” Davenport said. “Darkness is here to stay. But we can do something as far as human nature is concerned. Many pedestrians meet their deaths in night traffic because of their own thoughtless walking ha bits.” He warned pedestrians that it is difficult for motorists to see them at night and urged them to observe the following safe walking rules: t. Always walk on the sidewalk. If you must walk on the left shoul der of the road facing traffic. Wear light colored clothing or car ry a flashlight or a piece of white or reflectorized material. 2. Always assume that the driv er can’t see you. Never cross a street or highway unless you are absolutely certain you have ample time to reach the other side In complete safety. “Cyclists are In pretty much the same boat as pedestrians in the night traffic picture,” Davenport said. “Like pedestrians, they also are at a peat disadvantage in any encounter with a car. So it’s just good common sense for them to be constantly on the defensive. Here are some tips for safe cycling at night: % “l. A good headlight, and tail light (or reflector) are musts. “2. Add more visibility by trim ming your bike with white strip ping or some type of reflectorized material. “3. Wear light colored clothing or something trimmed with reflector ized material. “4. Ride on the right side of the road, with traffic. ”5. Obey all traffic laws” Paper Printed In 1621 Discovered To Complete Set By JOB MILLER NEW YORK (A~ln the fall of 1821, a London printer pulled from his hand press a sheet re-; porting news from the continent, i “Corant or Weekly Newes’* last ed only a few weeks, vanishing for a reason no one took the trou ble to record. But six issues were tucked away in the British Mu seum. labeled the earliest copies extant of an English language newspaper. Trouble was. one issue was miss ing—No. 5, dated Oct. $, 1621. Back In 1812. the author of liter ary anecdotes, one J. Nichols, de scribed the paper. But searching scholars In succeeding years nev er were able to run down the copy Nichols saw.

Hicken looper (R-Iowa) says that Demo crats are off base in their claims that the farm vota is shifting away from the Republicans because of lower agricultural prices. Asa farm state legislator who keeps in close touch with his cotk stituents, Hickenlooper said he found few of them blaming the Eisenhower administration for what' he said was a narrowing margin of profit on agricultural products. “The coat of Implement* and other things the farmer buys is going up and he is getting less for his own products,” Hicken looper observed. “But I think the farmer is taking that situation in stride and is not blaming the Re publicans.” Democratic speakers have been contending that farmers are dis atisfied because Secretary of Agri culture Benson has not yet come up with e program to supplement or replace the price support sys tem which expires next year. Sen. Russell (D-Ga) said recent ly he expects that to be a para mount issues in next year's cam paign. He predicted the Democrats would recapture control of the House if there is no upturn before the 1854 election in prices received by farmers. Sen. Morse (Ind-Ore) told a group of reporter! recently he doesn’t believe Presldnt Eisenhow er could win the farm vote in Ore gon if the election were being held right now. Morse, who quit the Republican party last year to support Adlai E. Stevenson,, the 1152 Demoratic presidential nominee, said he would ctmpaign for what be called “lib eral’’ Democrat! in next year*a congressional election. The Oregon senator recently said that, if the Senate remains evenly divided after that contest, he will vote for Democratic control. He bad announced previously he would side with the Republicans if the Democrats made any attempt to regain control in January. Russell said that, if the Demo crate accumulate a majority ef 48 votes on the control issue, he as sumes they would “accept the re sponsibility for organizing the Sen ate.” If Democratic Gov. Frank Lausche of Ohio should appoint a Democrat to succeed the late Sen. Robert A. Taft (R-Ohio), the Dem ocrats would outnumber the Re publicans 41-47. If Morse made it a tie, Vice President Nixon could vote for continued Republican con trol. Russell and other Democrat lead ers indicated, however, that they would not eak Morse to side with them and would not force the issue unless they should attain a clear majority. Deaths or resignations could bring about a change in the lineup at any time. Airman To Die ' TOKYO iri—Airman 2. C. Sher man F.
