= Wouldn’t you know it would
be so? . . TEXAS has the
most toll-free highways in
the world . . . that’s right -
not just the United States,
but the WORLD ... this word
from HERB PETRY, chair-
man of the Highway Com-
mission, in his remarks while
formally opening Interstate
30 to MT, PLEASANT last
Thursday morning . . . and
maybe you already knew that
Texans last year drove 50 bil-
lion miles over the state’s
highway system . . , (person-
al note: to develop a full ap-
preciation of Texas highways,
drive those in some other
states) . . . your highway to-
day is four times safer per
100 million miles of travel
than when the keeping of re-
cords was begun about 1925
... In fact, if the fatality to
miles ratio remained the
same today, annual highway
deaths would be 12,000 instead
of 3,000 . . . and all of us a-
gree that 3,000 deaths a year
to for too Many ... the safe-
st, best-designed highway in
the world is of no value when
used by a careless or reckless
driver. . .
One of the most refreshing
experiences at the ribbon-cut-
ting to us was the sight of
PETE GADDIS back in cir-
culation... as most of you
know, PETE has been way-
laid for some time now by ill-
ness, and all of us are glad

SAIGON, South Viet Nam
(A— U. S. B-52 bombers made
their third raid of the week
on North Viet Nam Saturday
in support of American Ma-
rines battling to drive infil-
trated Hanoi regulars from
the border province of Quant
Tri.
Cruising high out of range
of enemy guns, the eight-jet
bombers from Guam dump-
ed tons of explosives on Com-
munist truck parks, storage
depots and infiltration trails
a few miles north of the old
demilitarized zone bestriding
the frontier.
Smaller warplanes struck
at seven enemy storage
areas within the zone, which
lately has drawn more at-
tention than the Ho Chi Minh
Trail through eastern Laos
as a funnel for Communist
erinforcements and supplies.
Action dwindled for the
Marines. Patrols probing
along the southern edge of
the zone established no sig-
nificant contact.
South Korea’s Tiger Divis-
ion announced its troops kill-
ed 41 Viet Cong and captur-
ed five in a drive launched
Friday at Phu Cat Mountain,
270 miles northeast of Sai-
gon. A spokesman said Ko-
rean casualties were light.
This drive is one phase of
separate but coordinated op-
erations being conducted in
the central coastal area by
American, South Vietnamese
and Korean battalions.pha.
