The moment, and the endless series of moments, is filled with the immediate requirements of earning the daily bread. To youth, however, the world is new. Life's emergen__Cies, as a rule, have not begun to shut away its possibilities or probabilities. Today in poolitical, social and economic conditions, there are apparent certain trends that logically should lead.to a new order in American life. To stimulate the youth of California to examine these trends and from the clues to be gathered in such developments, for instance, as the codifying of rules to govern each industry, trade and profession, the Bank of America is offer-. ing $10,000 in cash awards and scholarships to those boys and girls who can best picture life, as they think it will be in 1964. It is an opportunity such as is seklom offered the boys and girls of this community to study the signs of the times, to track down these many changeful and meaningful portraits constructing from fragments and scattered evidence of the _complete picture of American government, industry, social status, or all them together, or along any one line, such as astronomy. There will be 414 essays to receive awards. It is a test of the metal of bright boys and girls. SPEED IS THE DANGER The world’s record for throwing the 16-pound shot, one of the regular events at all track and field meets, is 53 feet. The amount of energy possessed by ‘an average-sized automobile traveling at 60 miles an hour would be sufficient to throw that shot 52,800 feet—nearly ten miles. To use another illustration, a car traveling at 60 miles has the same capacity for inflicting damage as it were driven off a 12 story building. : * Those facts, brought out in a recent report of the Travelers Insurance Company, give some idea of the potential menace of speed on the highway. During recent years the death and injury rate per accident has been rising—and the increase was especially marked in 1933. The chance of a person being seriously hurt or killed in an accident is substantially greater than it would have been five or ten years ago in a simlar accident. The reason can be expressed in one word: Speed. Today's cars have better brakes, better steering, better lights and stronger bodies than those of the past. By all engineering standards, they are safer. What has happened is that the public has exaggerated the increased safety factors— and actually turned these improvements into dangers. Watch your speed—adapt it to local conditions at all times—and you'll have taken a long step toward becoming a safe driver.
