Mileage Records
For All Vehicles
Are Being Sought
Every automobile, bus or trtlek
owner, when he registers hi:; ve-
hicle for 1950, will be asked to
provide county auditors wiLh in-
formation on his 1949 travel on
Washington's highways. He will
be requested to report the nunt-
bet of months he operated his re-:
hicle during 1949; the miles that:
vehicle traveled during those
mon4.hs, and the average miles
pet" gallon achieved in runnhtg
that nflleagc.
He will also be requested to re-
porrt whether he kept regular rec-
ords or estimated his nfiles t:'av-
tied and miles pet' gallon.
According Lo Dr. James C. iNcl-
son, Economic Consultant to the
Joint Fact-Findin Ct)llllnit Lee on
1-1ighways, Strce(s ,and I3z'idges,
"1949 miles traveled anti mile-
per-gallon information for every

inI4ton during 1950 arc needed to
enable the eommitLee to study the

SCHOOLBOY PATROL officers
have the authority to regulate and
control the flow of traffic when
school buses are engaged in of-
ficial schedules and when pedes-
lrian traffic is waiting to cross
intersections in school zones or
designated areas.
In the state of Washington last
year 21 youngsters between 5 and
14 years of aCe were victims of
traffic accidents and 1,002 chil-
dren suffered painful and some-
times pezmanent injuries as a re-
sult of traffic accidents. "Many
of thcse accidents," Pryde said,
"have happened because motorists
forgot to expect the unexpected
while driving in residential areas,
neat" play grounds, and in the
vicinity of schools."
IN ADDITION TO the danger
of the pedestrian is the bicyclist.
Children riding their bicycles be-
come excited and erratic should
unexpected circumstances develop.
However, by exercising special
vigilance and constant awareness
of the bicyclist, motorists gradu-
ally can reduce the nUmbei, of ac-
cidents that yearly cause pain and
discomfort to the youth.
