= These senators propose that government lead in mobilizing U. S. science for future national defense and welfare, setting up a bureau for the purpose. If this be done,*we respectfully suggest a lecture course in the applied science of government for all federal bureau job holders.
We would suggest also that outside folk be invitational
lecturers. A housewife; say, to’explain how unscientific it is,
as well as exasperating when bureaucrats so mismanage rationing that butter turns rancid in stores because housewives
are denied enough points to buy it. Congressmen might explain that it is unscientific government when laws they pass

railroad managements as law breakers for doing what they
were licensed to do by another federal agency, the Interstate
Commerce Commission. This harassment of vital taansportation in the midst of war impelled a congressman to introduce

TEEN-AGERS AT THE STEERING WHEEL
Although it has been shown time and again that the proportion of driving accidents is higher for older people than
among teen age drivers, the vision of a youngster taking a
corner on two wheels of his battered and broken jalopy fills
us with horror. There is something awe-inspiring about a car
full of high school kids ripping around town, which no
amount of statistics can ameliorate.

It is a comfort, therefore, to hear that the University of
California has been holding a five day institute for school
teachers to train them in the fine art of teaching youngsters
the rudiments of safe driving. That is good. If the youngsters
can learn to live longer behind the wheel than some of the
rest of us, that is a net gain.
But how about the oldsters? We have been nursing the

rates than we used to do. But all the new designs of cars suggest more traffic at higher speeds. And we must admit it
would be fun to let out thé car on a nice smooth road some
day. But all this spells more accidents, injuries and deaths
after the war is over.
What we'd like to suggest is that the university think up
something which will teach, not merely the youngsters, but
all of us, how to keep alive in the new age of speed and new
cars. Do you suppose the university can do this? It would
