MARX Direct sr, Chicago Federation of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations Father of all mankind, Giver of life, three thousand years ago You did place before us Your eternal challenge -- "See, I have set be fore you life and death. Choose life that you may live." Today and every day we are confronted with the same choice, the instruments of life are in our hands and the instruments of death are in our hands. The choice is ours; it's always ours. Our God and Father, may we choose life, may our search for safety lead us to combine caution with courage that we may envision bolder plans to enrich life and to enhance its meaning. May we take the risks so that in the pursuit of safety we may also pursue meaning, a ful fillment for all your creatures. May we become givers of life, as well as savers of life. Help us, O God, to choose life; help us, O God, to live. Amen. 20 MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL COUNCIL MEETING The 1970 Annual Council Meeting of the printed report of the Nominating Commit National Safety Council was held in the tee, he moved the election of the slate as Grand Ballroom of the Conrad Hilton Hotel, named in the report.

Since accidents are no respecters of any circumstances we find ourselves in, the safety community cannot relax its guard for even a single moment--the unguarded mo ment can be fatally injurious." Delegates were invited to view a premiere film showing immediately following the formal meeting, ficers, Dr. Robert G. Frazier--Vice Presi dent for Homes during 1968-70; Robert E. Gocke--Vice President for Motor Trans portation during 1968-70; and Paul J. Hoover-Vice President for State and Local Safety Organizations in 1968-70. Mr. Pyle acknowledged the significant accomplish ments of each, and expressed the council's deep gratitude for their efforts in behalf of safety. which would underline the Congress theme. Following his custom, President Pyle wel Mr. Pyle proceeded with the business of the meeting by announcing a quorum present in person or by proxy. Motions were made to dispense with the calling of the roll, and for approval of the minutes of the previous Annual Meeting as distributed. The motions were put to the vote and carried. The Chair then called for the report of the Nominating Committee, which consisted of the following members: A. S. "Bud" Alston (Chairman), Werner C. Knoop, Ed win B. Locke, Alex A. Maleski, Eugene W. Merry, Norman C. Mindrum and James S. Van Namee. Norman C. Mindrum read the report on nominations for Trustees, Members of the Board of Directors, and Officers. With these remarks and the filing of the complete comed foreign friends attending the meeting. The Canadian delegates in the audience were asked to rise and be recognized. A 17-member delegation from the Japan So ciety for Safety Engineering was welcomed and introduced, as were the many other guests from outside the continental United States. The Chair then reminded the delegates of special events that would take place during the Congress Week, urging everyone to visit the Exposition and Council Service areas. The dates of the 1971 Congress to be held in Chicago were announced as October 25-28. Mr. Pyle introduced one of the morning's featured speakers, Mr. Theodore Giziclti, who was to speak from the special perspec tive of a senior citizen. President Pyle 21 19T0 National Safety Congress pointed out that we would also hear our traditional message from a youth speaker later in the program, hut it was fitting to hear from both the older and younger voices in the community; that these two groups shared erne unhappy statistic--there are more accidents among the young and the old than any other age groups. (Mr. Gizicki's address is included as part of the transactions on the following pages.) After this address, Mr. Pyle turned his attention to the youth groups who contribute such an important part to each annual Congress. He died the 12 organizations that helped plan the 1970 Congress Youth pro gram. They represented over 13,000,000 young men and women who can make vital contributions to the cause of safety. The following youth representatives were introduced: Martha Jean Hildebrand, 4-H Clubs of America, Battle Creek, Mich.; Wayne L. Humphreys, Future Fanners of America, Ames. Iowa; Aaron Fontinel, Na tional Grange, Tama, Iowa; Jeffrey Smith, Key Clubs International, Chicago, 111.; Scott Marshall, Explorer Scouts of America, Chi cago, III.;.

Carlos Arsinega, Boys Clubs of America, Milwaukee, Wis., and April Smith, Camp Fire Girls, El Paso, Texas. The delegation of some 300 youth "Safety Scholars" was asked to stand and be recognized. Mr. Pyle then introduced the youth speak er, Miss Linda Ford, for a special address. (Miss Ford's address and Prddent Pyle's concluding report are included in these trans actions on the following pages.) H. W. ChampKn Secretary OUR SENIOR CITIZENS By THEODORE F. GIZICKI Representing American Association of Retired Persons I bring you greetings from the more than two minion members of the American As sociation of Retired Persons -- all of whom are dedicated and committed to the safety movement. That dedication and commitment is ex pressed by our involvement with the Defen sive Driving Course. Since 1967, onr associa tion has trained more than 35,000 persons who are now better drivers because they have taken the National Safety Council course. Many of these people were not mem bers of our Association. They were given instruction by our group in areas where other agencies were not conducting Defen sive Driving courses. We are missionaries of the safety movement, assist ng councils in remote areas, reaching new regments of the population in others. Perhaps the most important thing we have been able to do is to help older Americans in their battle to dispel many of the myths that have grown up around the question of aging. We know and I hope you know too, that age is a relative thing. Older persons can he good drivers. Most older persons are good drivers because they realize the prob lems they face and the limitations they some times have. And they adapt their driving habits accordingly. That really is the heart of the Defensive Driving concept, as you ail know. Nevertheless, we continue to hear unjusti fied comments about older drivers. We want people to look at us in terms of our actual abilities and potential, and not in terms of the calendar. This December 1 will be cele brating my 50th wedding anniversary. I be lieve that I am a better driver than many people many years my junior. All I ask -- all any older person asks -- is to be con sidered on his merits and not on the basis of the summers he has seen. X cannot let this opportunity pass without trying in my own way to convey to you the real sense of involvement older people have with the concept of safety. 22 Annual Council Meeting I was a police officer before I retired to Florida and began spending three or four days a week training older drivers to be safe drivers. So far I've trained more than 1,500 of them and I'm as proud of that as I can be. As a police officer--a traffic officer -- I saw with my own eyes what happened to many accident victims before we had safety belts. We were ignorant of the lives safety belts could save and the injuries they could prevent Older persons remember hew it was before we enjoyed the benefits of tie wide accept ance of many of the safety ncepts we take for granted today. Older persons remember how it was before we had the concept of Defensive Driving. Older Americans realize the need for this kind of continuing safety education. And this educational effort must go on in every aspect of our lives, not just in driving training, not just in industrial safety, not just in home safety, but in every activity we engage in. Older Americans know this. We know this because as the years stretch on we see the very real and human toll that lack of safety takes. To many of you, statistics tell the tale. But to us, the numbers have a personal ring. An accident means a friend immobilized, a dear one incapacitated. My own daughter died of accidental drowning. That was no statistic. That was a dear life gone--for ever. Our volunteers have carried your message to every part of the nation. In doing this we have made people more aware of the activi ties of the National Safety Council and its local organizations. We've preached the gospel of safety -- and we've done it gladly. Our organization, the American Associa tion of Retired Persons, and its sister or ganization, the National Retired Teachers Association, represent more than 2,250,000 people--people who believe in making a contribution to the common cause of safety. We have done a lot. We can and will do more. However, there is still a great need for better understanding of the special problems older persons have. We ought to pay more attention to little things. If a medicine is packaged so that older eyes can't read the fine print on the container, there is a danger. When buses are built with steps so high that you can't mount them safely, that's a danger. When shelves in the home are built so high you can't reach them without climbing on something, that's another danger--a danger to all --but a particular danger to the older person. But we survive--despite it all. Safety -- not luck--helps us survive. You can't count on being lucky all the time for a period of 60-70-80-90 or 100 years. But you can count on being safe. A man named Ben Burroughs wrote a few lines which I will read to you now. Perhaps they will help you survive as I have survived, and hope to continue to survive. "Invest in Safety'' by Ben Burroughs Accidents happen in a flash ... so always be alert . . . Follow every safety rule . . . And you will not get hurt.

On the second day man created factories: to make his clothes, and his food; then they poured into the air the foul odor of smoke and refuse and into his rivers the wastes -- and man looked around and said -- Oh, well. On the third day man created machines to cut his wood and cook his food and build his homes; and man got careless with these machines and watched his brothers die -- and then man looked around and said --Oh, well. On the fourth day man created the auto mobile to transport himself and then he abused it and got careless and again watched his brothers die--then he looked around and said--Oh, well On the fifth day man created alcohol to drink at his pleasure and to elevate himself; and man abused it and used it to excess and as a result he watched his brothers die -- on the roads, in the factories, in city slums, in the hospitals -- and man looked around and said--Oh, well. On the sixth day man created chemicals and drugs to save his crops, preserve his food, and cure his diseases and illnesses; and then he misued them and began to watch his brothers die -- and for the last time man looked around himself and said -- Oh, well. Now it is the seventh day. And on this seventh when the air and waters are polluted and fouled with waste the highways are crowded and plagued with death, the fires rage over our woodlands and homes, and man is using his drugs and his alcohol to forget about the promise of the seventh day -- the seventh day when man shall perish. It was this seventh promise that causes our student body to turn back the calendar of the seven days. A student body, at Kent County Vocational Technical Center, that is aware and shocked about the seventh day. I would like to relate to you our backwardweek calendar of safety. Our projects for the calendar fell into three categories. Our first project was awareness. In some way we needed to bring about an awareness of safety on the part of both adults and stu dents in our community. Slide programs, films, and guest speakers helped to bring about this awareness. It is important to be sure that these programs have, somewhere in their content, someplace where it states just what young people can do to help. Our second project was involvement After there is an awareness of safety, it is time to get involvement This is the hardest part of our backward calendar, and yet it is one of the most successful. You get students involved by making safety mean something to them -- by applying it to their homes, friends, and chosen careers. Who should better be interested in occupational safety than a carpenter, a mason, a plumber? Who should be more interested in safety in the use of poisons, drugs, and alcohol than medi cal services students and child care spe cialists? How about highway and road safety for auto mechanics and auto body students? Well, this is what we did at Kent Center, and for the classes and students to whom a particular area of safety did not apply, they specialized in general community or occupa tional safety. Our third project was action. After mak ing students aware and getting them involved in classroom safety projects, we offered them the opportunity to take action on the safety infractions and hazards that they found. And yet, there has to be a drive that makes the students want to devote their time to these projects. This drive was the result of competition. Each involved trade area would sponsor year-long and school-wide Annual Council Meeting safety programs in their chosen area of safety. They would compete with each other for the first place safety award at Kent Center. During this competition, many new and unique ideas will come to light Last year we had a safety inspection lane for cars, a fire equipment check in the com munity schools and office buildings, a daily safety check and write-up by students in the construction trade areas, a school-wide student safety check looking for emergency fire exits and general safety hazards, seven surveys -- both by mailing and door-to-door -- filmstrips, speakers and field trips; all arranged and planned by students. And the great part was that these weren't extra curricula activities---they were part of the classroom course. Maybe that in itself is a key to our success and because we don't have safety projects; we have projects that make us safe. I only mentioned some of the ways that we turned back the calendar of destruction in Kent County, Delaware. There were many, many more, but they all strive to prove the same point -- that it is time for man to stop sighing and saying -- Oh, well. It is time to get involved. However, if I only related to you what one school can do, then my mission would be a failure. The seventh day would be to morrow. My mission is to urge each one of you to help create youth programs like that at Kent Center all over this land--youth programs set up by students, assigned by students, and carried out by students. When we have this we have enough en thusiasm, enough strength and enough action to push the hands of time away from the dawniugs of the seventh day and back to safety- PRESIDENT'S REPORT By HOWARD PYLE President, National Safety Council May I report to you briefly on certain aspects of the status of safety generally, and the National Safety Council's 1970 experi ence. in particular. As you have the time, it Is hoped you will evaluate the content of our "Report To The Nation --1970." As an economy measure we cut the size of the document in half this year.J Customarily we have devoted at least 32 pages to the annual report but this time around we reduced the number of pages to 16. Some say it will increase readability for the publication and perhaps leave a more easily remembered impression of the com plexity of the Council's mission and how we are moving to accomplish it. Others, I'm sure, will be disappointed not to see the usual detailed coverage of the Council's ex tensive operations. If you have reactions, we would like you to pass bem along to us. A word should also be <aid about the de sign of the Green Cross featured on the cover of the Report. It's a result of many months of exploring the idea of modernizing our traditional green cross for safety. Here again your reactions would be appreciated. As you read in the Report . . . "Today safety is receiving unprecedented public at tention. Debate and controversy have ema nated from the news media, the public plat form, and the halts of Congress. An unprece dented amount of safety legislation has been proposed. Some of it is now law, and some of that law is operative." With respect to the legislation the pros and cons are almost endless. The National Safety Council has made it very clear that in its judgment there is no real substitute for the effectiveness of the voluntary safety movement for those who participate. Unfortunately, not all participate. In fact, there is reason to believe there may be as many as three million businesses op erating in this country, employing 500 em ployees or less, where there is virtually no organized effort at all for safety. Inevitably, this raises the issue of what to do about it. Opinions differ very sharply as in the case of pending legislation in the field of occupational safety and health. At this point the argument has gone beyond the question of whether there should be a Fed eral law. The differences now revolve almost 25 CONGRESS BANQUET INVOCATION By the REV. ROBERT A.

Tyler McConnell, Chairman of the Board of Directors, presiding. The invocation was offered by the Rev erend Robert A. Grunow, Director of Sem inary Relations, Concordia Seminary, St Louis, Missouri. (The text of Reverend Grunow's prayer appears on the preceding page.) Mr. McConnell welcomed the banquet guests at the 58th National Safety Con gress. He said that the private sector of our national economy can point with under standable pride to its support of National Safety Council activities during all these years--and it represented much more than just enlightened self-interest He said he has been amazed and inspired and humbled by the dedication and commitment exhibited by delegates, members and friends--studying --working--planning together--so that all people of this nation could enjoy safer work places, homes and highways. Mr. McConnell told of the thousands of lives that have been saved, and the countless millions of our fellowmtn who have been spared disabling injuries, because of the efforts of safety professionals in ail walks of life. But he explained that the task is growing rather than decreasing; that we must face up to the fact that the work has just begun. He then introduced the hosts of the Con gress at the speaker's table, and recognized the Board Members and Trustees seated in a special section of the ballroom. The Chairman then introduced Howard Pyle for a special presentation to the Ad vertising Council. Mr. Pyle said 1970 marked the 25th anni versary year of the National Safety Coun cil's association with an organization that has combined the resources of the com munications media--supported by leading industrial organizations--into one vast agency for preparing and distributing public interest advertising campaigns. The Advertising Council was formed in 1941. It receives no subsidy from government, makes no profit. operates entirely on a voluntary basis. Its war-time service was so outstanding that, at the dose of hostilities, it was reincorpo rated to assist media and advertisers in their public interest efforts. "While traffic accidents presented a smaller problem daring the war years, by the autumn of 1945 the picture had changed drastically. It was then that the National Safety Coundl asked the Advertising Coundi for help. "Campaigns on "Since War Ended, Traffic Deaths Have Jumped' and `Careless Driv ing is Kid Stuff' were followed by `When Traffic Law's are Strictly Enforced, Traffic Deaths Go Down.' Succeeding themes like 'Seat Belts Make The Critical Difference' and `Watch Out For The Other Guy* are familiar to us all. In 1970, the campaign was dedicated to moving drinking drivers off the road. "The time and talent of some of the best account men, copy writers, and art directors of leading agendes have created these campaigns. Needham, Harper, and Steers'; Foote, Cone and Belding; Young and Rubicam; Cecil and Presbrey; and Campbell-Ewald have worked with us. "No charge is made for this creative work. Radio and television personalities contribute their services. Many of the professionals rebate their fees. "Print and electronic media contributions add up to a cash value that is astronomical. The dollar value of time and space contrib uted by the media is estimated at $460,000,000 in the preceding 10 years. The time and space contribution by advertisers and by media has been a major factor in the saving of more than 700,000 lives in the last 25 years." Mr. Robert Kein, president of the Ad vertising Council, was invited to the speak ers' table to accept the special "Flame of Life" award from Mr. Pyle. Representatives of the Advertising Council and Needham, Harper and Steers among the banquet guests were asked to rise and be recognised. For the featured address of the evening, Mr. McConnell introduced the Honorable 30 National Safety Congress Banquet Jennings Randolph, United States Senator from West Virginia. Senator Randolph is Chairman of the Senate Public Works Com mittee, as well as several Sub-Committees, and he has been officially concerned with all major highway legislations since 1962. (The text of his remarks will be found on the following pages.) The final part of the banquet program was happily handled by Sam Levenson, one of America's favorite humorists. Mr. McConnell thanked the guests for attending the 58th Congress and said lv hoped they would "Zero In On Safety" with renewed dedication and be blessed with ful fillment during the coming year. THE NEW COMMITMENT TO SAFETY By the HONORABLE JENNINGS RANDOLPH United States Senator from West Virginia We need a rebirth of individual responsi bility in this country as we never needed it before. It's wonderful to have organizations, splendid to have programs that are enun ciated by boards of directors, but now we need a rebirth of an individual respondbslity to a greater degree than we have for many, many years. After Apollo Eight, when the three astro nauts came to the earth again, they were asked, "What do you remember as the most significant part of all your journey into space?" In essence, all three replied: "The uniqueness, the incredible beauty of the earth from which we had come." This is under standable, because this Earth is a living organism--the only planet, so far as we know:, that is a living organism. Then, after Apollo 13, the three astro nauts were asked essentially the same ques tion. Two answered as had the three after Apollo Eight. But one hesitated. He said: "Through the long look, yes, I saw the beauty of Earth--but I saw that we had marred and scarred the Earth on which we live." This concerned him. He spoke about it. We have marred and scarred the Earth in so many ways. We have been destructive. We have forgotten the new commitment to safety which is an umbrella under which ail Americans and people of the Earth can build for the future. We need now, as never before, to think in terms of new commitments ar.d new challenges, because we must think anew--we must act anew --we must disenthrall ourselves. This isn't easy for Americans. We are not eager to do that. We want to continue so very often to set ourselves in the patterns which are parts of our lives. So, as we think about the underlying reason for thi: new commitment we think not of a pleasantry when we say that the National Safety Council has been on the job, doing something about the reduction of death and injury caused by accidents. It has been the springboard and the spearhead of the efforts to make Americans increas ingly aware, concerned, and then to follow through with action. I suppose the general public thinks of the Coundl in that most often noticed exerase during the holiday periods when you im plore motorists to drive carefully. And then I presume you have the frustrating func tion, after having done that, of informing the nation how many persons have actually lost their lives or have been maimed to an extent that they cannot really live in the fullness of service. But we here know that the concerns of the National Safety Coundl are much broader, much deeper, their scope is some thing beyond this matter of highway acddents, because the Coundl is intensely in volved with all the activities in which people are injured or killed because of usually avoidable causes. There is a need for increased safety con sciousness and more effective comprehensive safety programs in every area of our lives. Nowhere, whether in the seclusion of our own homes or in factories or in fields, whether at work or at play, are people really safe; there is always the danger of 31 1970 National Safety Congress a fatal or disabling accident or a disease that could have been avoided. We Americans, with our vast technologi cal know-how, have accomplished many wonderful and positive results. It is alarm ing, however, that with these achievements we still witness increased numbers of people being killed and maimed. It is shocking and tragic to realize that 115 million Americans will die accidentally this year, and that accidents will cost our economy the stagger ing sum of $27.7 billion. We pause a moment, because these figures really are more than statistics--they are clothed with human beings. West Virginia is a state whose economy, especially in the past, was geared to the production of bituminous coal. I remember very well when we had 115,000 miners gain fully employed in our state. Now we have 38,000 miners. Not because the huge ton nages of coal do not move to market--we have those in the same degree. But we have labor saving devices. We have mech anization. And the men that were killed in lesser number are being killed in greater number today, with the mechanization, the labor-saving devices, and the technology of which I speak. I have stood with mothers and wives, lit erally by the scores, when they have known that their sons and their husbands and their fathers who would not come bade above the good earth. And so I have felt what these men and women have felt: the death and the injury and the disease that comes with frightening regularity because of the advances which have been made in the very production of coal itself. In West Virginia we also have steel mills and great centers of chemical production. We have many other facets of business and industry, and with all of these we have to realize that there cannot be a complacency or a feeling that everything is all right. Because it isn't all right There has to be constant pressure by a Council like this to impress upon people that they must be alert to these conditions which almost overwhelm us. This doesn't mean a fight ebtween management and labor. It means the opportunity to join in a part nership, with no senior-junior partner in volved, but all working because the job must be done. What about the United States Congress? In the Public Works Committee of the Senate, and the Labor and Public Welfare Committees on which I am privileged to serve, we've been thinking in terms of help ing safety. These assignments, in part, have given me the opportunity to know what people think, and to have before us not a few, but really hundreds of witnesses who, because of their experience and background, and because they meet the problems daily, can be helpful to us. We are face to face in these two com mittees with the passage of the most stringent legislation that has ever been adopted for health and safety. This is for industry and it's for business and it's for commerce and, of course, it's for those who toil. The injury rate of that industry which is so inherently a part of West Virginia is four times that of all American industry. We attempt to reduce accidental death and injury by eliminating the conditions of dust and tire way we do the job of mining. We've revised and strengthened the legis lation but now, in the provisions of the Bill that have become law, we are going to do a job, I think, that was long over looked. But people expect something to be done tonight, and it cannot be done until tomor row. From instead of the present 250 in spectors who go into the mines to see if the mines are safe, and whether the health conditions are correct, under the provisions of this Bill we need 750 inspectors. You don't pull these people off the streets. These people have to know what they're doing. So just the 500 additional inspectors make it necessary for us to go a little more slowly in the perfection of this legislation, which has already been placed upon the books for the benefit of the coal mining industry. In the Senate we are debating legislation that is even more important because that legislation will affect about ten states and approximately 150,000 workers. Now we are concerned through the Labor and Public Welfare Committee with an occupational safety and health act which I think will pass. This is comprehensive legislation. It is going to provide the machinery to extend to every industry in the United States pro 32 National Safety Congress Banquet grams to safeguard the health and the the safety and the health of the people of safety of the workers, and it will be benefi the United States. cial to Industry and management. When we come to the highway problem We have a great industrial complex in this country. It's the strongest, the most productive, in the world. But when 14,500 persons are killed every year in accidents working within industry, isn't that the time to act? The time is long overdue, and I am sorry for the failures of the past. But I think we'll come to grips with this prob lem now and, instead of the timid steps, --and it is a great problem--we are seventy per cent complete in our Interstate System of 42.500 miles. But what has happened ? We have had primary and secondary roads de teriorate to such an extent that that's where the accidents are coming from. Not on the Interstate, but on these reads that have been allowed to just fall apart during the period since 1957. make an ail-out frontal attack and the Con These are the programs where, in the gress will pass tiie legislation. future, we are going to have to understand In the Public Works Committee we are directly involved with these subjects. I touched upon what the astronauts found and how they expressed themselves and how in a sense we have degraded and desecrated this earth. We need not so much the re cycling of waste from humans, but we need a recycling of the human spirit These two must go together in the months and the years that are ahead. We have to reduce pollution. All the air and water pollution, solid waste disposal, this is within the keep ing of our committee. The very people who talk about health and safety are the intruder* upon the qual ity of life and the enhancement, certainly the strengths, of America that must come from an understanding at least partially of itnprqving for health and safety these facil ities which are all about us. we cannot have different formulas. We're going to have to have one formula. Perhaps 65-35, then allow the states to make the determination. Shall we put the impact for two years on so-called interstate or defense roads? Or on primary and secondary roads? This will be a determination for the states, because there will be no dollar advantage for building one type of a road or another. And so this is directly a part of the pro gram of the future, of keeping insofar as possible the strength of our highway sys tem in such a stage of development that the lower accident rate will continue, be cause it is a favorable accident rate where the Interstates are compared with the other highways. We have been complacent, because the highway accident rates have gone down. It is too easy to fall into the trap of believing that we have accomplished more than is Someone will say. "it's a world problem." actually the case. The facts are not in fig Yes. it is. And tonight, when the policemen ures alone, or in raw statistics, because the go out on the beats in Tokyo, they'll be raw statistics are posed with bodies. And out thirty or forty minutes and then they'll 56,400 persons died cm the highways of the have to go back in and breath oxygen, so United States--just last year. they can go out again. In the month of September alone, 9,000 persons in Tokyo were treated for lung and throat and eye ailments due to pollution in the air over that great area of Tokyo. This total continues to rise annually and represents nearly one-half of all the acci dental deaths in the United States. Well, commendation is due to those who have worked to reduce the rate of the highway Layers of smog mixed with fog are in three-fourths of the skies above the United States of America. Not only over Los Angeles County, but all over the air above the United States. It's such a serious prob lem that I had not thought to talk about it, but in connection with safety, it's a subject all in itself. But somehow or other I think the Council can bring this subject into greater focus than before in connection with deaths, but so long as more than a thousand people die every week on our roads, can you be satisfied? No, I am sure you cannot be. That's the reason we must do more. In 1966, Congress passed the Highway Safety Act to initiate a positive and vig orous program of reducing these accidents. Financing for the critical program has been dependent upon the annual appropriations. One of the troubles of the Congress of 33 1970 National Safety Congress the United States is the passage of an authorization act built upon the testimony for the need, but then we never follow through and appropriate enough dollars to do the job what we know should actually be done. So I am critical of the Congress on that score, and myself, of course, in degree, as well. In the past four years, in our Department of Transportation, we have been able to obligate only $162 million to the fifty states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico for highway activities in the sixteen program areas which were set forth. And so, because of this situation, in the present Federal Highway Act, we provide for high way safety for die first time to be financed from the Highway Trust Fund. I think the financing will significantly assist this De partment of Transportation in developing what I know are meaningful safety pro grams that must be carried forward. We are going to continue hearings next year on highway safety, as we have never con tinued them before. And we are going to see if there aren't further changes that need to be made. Most safety programs cannot be truly ef fective unless state and local authorities accelerate their activities and exhibit that determination which is absolutely necessary, which frankly has not been shown enough in the past And so, more effective law en forcement, I think, is a key to reducing death and injury on the highways. Those 109 million licensed drivers constitute more than one-half of our total population and among these, I am sure, are a significant number who should not be permitted be hind the wheel of a motor vehicle. X am not hard-handed when I say that These problem drivers--narcotic addicts and those who habitually ignore the regulations that are for the safe movement of traffic--are a menace. They must be taken off the roads. This must be done. And you must help to bring it into being. Effective progress cannot be made until we identify these persons and actually re move them from the highways. The license to drive a car is not a license to use the car as a lethal weapon. And those who use a car for that purpose have forfeited, in my opinion, their right to drive an automobile on the roads of America. Safety is everybody's business. This maxim has been repeated, and now it's familiar --almost a cliche. Repetition, though, does not diminish the truth of the statement, and I hope we will keep it in our minds and in oar hearts, not only in our work to improve safety at every level, in every facet of our society, but also in oar personal lives. As with many other endeavors, it is the exam ple that we set, not just what we jay, that can determine our true effectiveness in pro moting programs for the benefit of others. I challenge you. And I know you accept the challenge--a partnership for progress and for safety. 34 SAFETY EXPOSITION EXHIBITORS --1970 Acme Anti-Skid Corp.. 3437 S. Hanover St, Baltimore, Md. 21225 Safety surfacing.
