SARAH

SARAH has proved populu Wm, non - scheduled carriers. chiefly thou operating on such northern projects as the radar construction lines. Canadian Aviation Electron. lcs Limited, the distributors. say no scheduled commercial lines have used SARAH yet. '
Canadian Pacific Air Lines says the tests are not complete but it they show SARAH will survive a crash then the company will "cer. tainly go for it." It feels the cost, at 8285 for the 3V:-pound transmit- ter and about 3211!) for the 12- pound receiver. is "peanuts."
Pi sldent Gordon R. McGregor
QUEBEC (CF) - The post-war puller race in automobiles was mo-icht under attack from one qtim-tor and staunchly defended (rum another Tuesday at the third annual Canadian highway safety Cllfl erent-e.
Paul H. Blaisdell of New York gaitl at a luncheon address that "imiology has outstripped the hu- nl.'lll factor in highway usage." hllile Roy Haeusler of Detroit. a Iulriy engineer for the Chrysler ('.irIl4iralion. said surveys have iiimvn more power does not neces- miiy encourage a motorist to dine faster.
.llr. Biiasdell, director of the traffic safety division. accident prevention department, Associa- tion of Casualty and Surety Com- panies. told the 250 delegates to the two-day conference that "the human evolutionary .prnccss is mmewhat slower than technolog- lt'aI advancement."
SAYS DRIVERS LAGGING
"i ask you to consider the prob- shility that we have already built i motor vehicle beyond the capa- hility of the average of four driv- rrs to operate safetly-his resc- ttnns and his judgment cannot match the power and the speed potential of today's cars."
Speaking at an engineering com- mittee session Mr. Haeuslcr said
Conflicting Views Heard on
The United States bureau of pub- lic roads conducted radar checks on high-speed highways in many parts of the country and found only a small rise in average speeds between I946 and 1955.
Average speed In 1946 was 47 miles an hour. the report showed. while in 1955 the average was only 52 miles an hour. The power race, Mr. Haeusler pointed out. began in earnest about 1950.
LITTLE DIFFERENCE
Another survey. this one under- taken by the Yale University traf- fic study group L1 1954. proved even more conclusively that power does not mean speed. he said.
The Yale study was carried out on a 55-mile-an hour stretch of highway in Connecticut. The sec- tion, Mr. Ifaeusler said. was straight and considered high- speed.
The test took into account not only the speeds driven but the make and modern of the automo- biles-thus allowing a comparison between power and speed. Cars were grouped in four categories according to horsepower - those undr 100. those between 100-130, between 130-170 and those over 170. '
Mr. Haeusler said the average
speed for the mo-130 class was 56.6 while the over 170 group av-
they hold any promise of having merit, they are applied." 3
N0 REGULATION CHANGES
Civil air officials of the trans- Port department. with CPI in mind. say no regulation changes are contemplated at this time to make SARAH a. mandato 1 P1909 0' Oqulpment but that the P0lll' blllly remains the device me! be, recommended later for certain, types of aircraft operating over certain types of terrain. .
For example. it is held. I pri- vate craft flying between Mon- treal and Ottawa would not prolrl 8171)! derive any benefit front SARAH. With CPI in the works. the matter is being kept open for the time being. '
The big difference between the
two is that SARAH operates onlyi
ably would be no survivors in crashes where SARAH could prove most useful. I
See Crackdown . Best Speed Curb
QUEBEC tCPl - safety expel-1 Paul H. Blaisdell of New York. says he is convinced drivers wo:i'ti slow down unless they face a'
"rough-and-tough crackdown." I '
In an address Tuesday to the Canadian Highway Safety confer- ence here. he Sllzzested Inch a crackdown should be designed to "remove from the road perman- ently those who have no regard for the welfare of others."
Mr. Blaisdeli, who heads the Na- tional Association of Sate Safety' Coordinators. urged the 10 prov- inces to participate In a safety campaign from May 30 to Labor Day.
"There is an urgent need furl this campaign '. t speed." he said. "For a few years the United States could boast of a declining, traffic fatality rate. but now even that statistical solace has been swept away hy the steady in- crease in traffic accidents. the sharp increase in traffic injuriesl

that induced Mr. Boucher. 57. to attempt to regain the seal he had won in a 1940 by-election and re- tained in the 1945 general vote. He vacated the seat in Mr. Drew's favor in 1948 when the former On- tario premler succeeded Hon. John Bracken as national leader. Mr. Bell. 43. was co-chairman of the national Conservative con- vention in December which named John Diefenbaker as Mr. Drew's successor. He ran the detailed ma- chinery of the party's two prev- Inus leadership conventions and was the Conservatives' national director from 1942 to 1945.
