Highway Tragedy

Tiic tragic highway accident near Clyde River on Wednesday night has shocked all our citizens. It has takcn a toll of five lives. and several others have been injured. There will, of course. he I full inquiry into the circumstahces. and comment on them at this time would be out of pl.i--c. The bcrcaxcri families. in this Province and in the State of Maine, will have the heartfelt sympathy of all ottr people.

tfoniing in the midst of our civil: cciclmittoiis and on the eve of Old Home Wcck festivities, the tragedy is a grim reminder of the precarious- itcss of life, and particularly of the iiaiigcrs inhcrcnt in modern high- way traffic. It unricrline.-2 the need for safety measures on a far more comprehensive and effective scale than we have at present. Motoi' traf- flc has wrouglit a revolution in our way of life. but we are still in the horse and buggy stage so far as ade- quate protection of life and limb is concerned. It is not enough to say that many accidents of this kind are due to carelessness. We are human beings, not machines. The dangers consequent upon even momentary lapses of attention are too appalling to be tolerated. Public opinion can, if it will. speed the day when greater emphasis will be placed on safe driv- ing. not only educationally but in hltlltway design and in the manufac- titre of cars, which are equipped to- day with power out of all proportion to ordinary requirements.

Hannibal's March

A question over which historians have wrangled for many centuries has now been settled definitely by I British scholar. It concerns Hanni- bals route over the Alps in 2151 B.C., which he crossed with elephants. Sir Gavin do Beer. director of Lon- don's History Museum, has remap- pcd the great march by tracing clues of terrain. climate, and even trees which Hannibal saw. They lead over I 9.600-foot pass on the French- ltalian iiordr-r. ('01 de la Traversettc. This is a higher and more hazard- ous way than any previously thought possible for Carthage's army to have Crossed.

The 28-year-old gciwral marched from Spain across southern Gaul with 50.000 foot soldiers. 9,000 horse- men. and .10-odd Moroccan ele- phants. llc crrisscrl the Rhone near the prcscnt French town of Aries, Sir Gavin sayskmuch farther south than historians previously thought. He tricked his elephants onto a raft by 4-mcring it with earth. Some panicked and fell off. but then they waded. for the river there was wide. slow. and shallow. A Roman legion itiidcr Scipio. landing hastily at Mas- siiia tnoiv Maixscillct. arrived too late to prevent the crossing.

ilaitnibai marched north. not to the iscre as long believed. but to the Ayxzucs trihittary. He turned cast. fighting off hostile Gauls. From the ancient historians Livy and Polybiits. Sir Gavin deduccs that Hannibal followcd thc Durance River into the Alpine foothills above today's town of (lap.

Other Gauis guirkid him. only to attack him later. The precise pass they led him to has remained I mystery. Livy and Polybius write that it was pine-covered, very high -and dangerous. coated not only with new snow but hard-frozen snow from the winter before. The plains of ltalia could be sccn from its crest. Only one pass could meet all these conditions in 218 B.C.. Sir Gavin de- termined by long scientific study - the Col de la Traversette. Even to- day this remains wild, rugged coun- try.-frequcnted by smugglers, cros- sed by neither highway nor railroad.

Through "narrow, stony. and broken ways" Hannibal fought. Treacherous ambushes cost him many men and animals. Others fell from terrifying precipices. Rocks rolled down on them. Descending

across avalanche snowfields., "the soldier knew not where to set his foot with safety.” To make passage for the elephants, ancient accounts tell. Hannibal's men "wrought into the hill itself” by first lighting a fire on one huge rock and 1 then drenching it ivith vinegar. l..ong scoffed at. this was a recognized an- cient mcthod of mining and attack- ing f0l'tIfIcnti(ttis, Sir Gavin says.

When liaiiiiiiiai's army at last ntarciied out upon the plain of Pied- mont. it numiiereti only 2(t,t)(X) foot and 6,000 horse. It had taken them five niontlislfrom Spain, but they had crn.-;.sed the mountain wall.

The News From Geneva

To nmst of us, all this talk about licnvy water, fission. and fusion, now going on at the atomic energy conference in (leneva is virtually iiicaiiinglcss; lint there is no person aiiywhctc in lIlt' world who can re- niain ll1tIlllt'l't'lll to dccisioiis that in due coitrse will result from the con- sultations. It would. of cottrsc, be very foolish to evpcct a great deal of tangiiilc licncfit to come out of Geneva at this time. After all. it is less than a month since the summit parlcy DIhIW'll'ti(l the way for a long series of ncgotiations on the inrious levels of officialdom, and it is inttch too soon for the new phase in inter- national relations to have any sal- utary effect on the many and varied problems that beset the world in this

age of anxiety. Yet, things have happened this week which would have been undrcamed of only six

months ago. American Jtlttl Rtissiaii (IUIINVWIPQ

' have. for one thing. cvcliatigcd folios .

of atomic information. it may well be that these folios are impressive more for their hulk than for any im- portant secret they revciii; since na- tions, like individuals. do not sudden- ly advance to complete trust and amity in one another after years of, distrust wrangling. Perhaps the exciiange is nothing more than a symbol of what could be accom- plished if only, in President Eisen-

and

howcr's worils, "the iiivciitivcitcss of .

man could lie consecrated to life." No matter; it may be the beginning of I new venture in the lives of peo- pics and of nations. and it may yet take us all into the light of a bright- er day.

If any one is disposed to say that that is an optimistic view. totally un- warranted by any clear act of per- formance. let him say it; certainly, be has plenty of historical evidence on his side. But. as the poet said, "faith has centre cveigvwhere. nor cares to fix itself to form", and surely it will do none of us any harm to hopeeand believe, without being dogmatic about it--that there is in- deed something new in the world.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Now we know why some young- sters are more mischievous than others in school. After coiisi(ici'iiig the grave problem for several months. specialists have decided that

the trouble-makers are above the average in intellectual ability. in other ivorrls, their antics are just

time-fillers while they are waiting for the lcss brilliant to catch up. It is to be Itnpctl that this scientific (list-mfcry will not have any deleter- ious affect on discipline. I I 0

Another large scale effort to lo- cate the treasure supposedly hidden by the famed (faptain Kidd, whose reputation for piracy has been clear- ed by the historians, is now under way in the waters surrounding Block Island. off the Rhode Island shore. aided by the latest electronic de- vices. It is interesting to note that more than a million dollars have been spent on the 250 year old search, probably a good deal more than the treasure is worth.

Whatever else the hot weather may do, it brings out the perennial claims and counter-claims to heat records. No sooner had Libya claimed a record reading of 136 de- grees for Sept. 13, 1922. then Port- ugal sent in proof that it had ex- perienced 158 degrees in July, 1949. So far there has been no official re- Iction from the Soviet Union. but we may expect I report from that coun- try of It least 159 before the sum-

as to whether his resignation was completely voluntary. in any case the whole affair was judged on ethical rather than legal grounds, since there was no disposition to accuse Talbott of ilegai acts. But, like Caesar's wife. I cabinet sec- retary's public performances must he ahave reproach; and so Mr. Talbott quilted the scene.

We wonder how much sympathy Mr. Talbrilt will elicit by his com- ment that his experience had been "pretty tough". since. on his own admission. he had earned more than 5130.000 from his partnership in the private firm after taking over his government job as Scc- , rotary of the Air Force.

There's new hope in treatment of I major eye disease which blinds more than 3,200 Americans each year.

Scientists believe now that I tiny onecelled animal parasite. "Taxo- plasma." may be an important factor in causing uveitil.

Uveitis is an inflammation of one of the tissues of the eye. the uvea. tract which is found just inside the white coat of the eye-ball. This tract includes the iris, ciliary body and choroid. The choroid is next to the retina. the delicate nervo- film of vision.

' Bacteriological examination of the retina and choroid is difficult and dangerous. Doctors seldom get I chance to look at them closely. except when the eye has been severely damaged by dis- ease and removed. Than. they usually have to make a presump- tive diagnosis of the cause of the disease.

RECENT DISCOVERY

Until just two years ago, it was believed that the germ of tuber- culosis caused a great many cases of posterior uveitis. Now. however. it is believed by many that Taxo- plasma causes I large percentage of these cases

That's an important discovery because T n x ti pl a s in :2 can be treated.

Tests have been tried with sulfa drugs and pyrimethamine. I drug previously used in treatment of malaria. Most of the patients thus treated responded quickly.

However. further research is needed since this treatment pro- duces side effects such as nausea and decrease of blood elements.

Other treatments may prove more valuable. ACTH or cortisone and vaccines or antiscra used con- currently with the pyrimcthaminc and sulfa drugs might be just what we need
