J. O Musick, (Jereral Manager
of the Texas Safety Association
and Coordinator of the Annual
Slow Down and I.iv. Program
makes this comparison:

warm, cloud-flecked day in CJal-
eston. Texas. Slowly the skies
turned yellow, th. beating of the
waves or the wooden wharves
increased in tempo, the skies
darkened and the wind came. In-

Tin Gaivt -U'i. t.dal wave was
one of thre< of the most dread
ful "natural" disasters the I nit
ed State.- ha- ever experienced.
The Titanic, which -truck an
iceberg on a clear evening in
April, J!M2. carried 1,517 people
with her to th< bottom of the
>ea. The Johnstown flood in
1K89, swept awaj the lives of
2,201) people. I'.y appalling coin-
cidence. the.-. three disaster.-
prove that mai. i- more destruc-
tive to himself then any of the
force.- of nature. In the three
disasters a total of !',72<i lives
were lost. In just three consecu-
tive summer months. June, July
and Augu.-t. 9,72*". lives
were also lost. But in 1958. man,
himself was responsible. 9,72<">
men, women and children were
needlessly slain in traffic accid
ents on our streets and highways
| during those month.-—the exact
number lost in the three "nat-
ural" disasters. And the terrible
toll jroes on, year after year,
I unheeded by the motoring public!
Musick ask- the help of every
■ conscientious driver in the State
! of Texas in pr< venting needless
disaster or, our highways thi
summer. In a -pecial -tatement,
he stated that speed is ou- num
ber one killer and that even
though special enforcement pro
gram are now in effect, the
major responsibility must rest
upon th. driving pumic. He
urged * hat every motorist pav
-pecial attention to the inter-
national SLOW DOWN AND
L1VK safety program, o\\ being
sponsored foi the <>tr. c. i.-e.-utive
veai by the Associati- of State
and Provincial Safety Coordina-
tor-. This program, which ha
urowr to becorn. th«- laigest
■ingle safety educatio! program
m th. world, ha- proven it- ef-
fectiveness in saving lives. "We
must halt the needles -iaught« r
on oil' ighways," r.« -aid. "With
citizen support arid -anc. -afe
driving practice- y. < know we
i can!"
