In regard to drunk drivers Inspector Page says: "Drunk dri- vers ,are greater menace every year," The statistics bear out the Inspector's judgment, In 1945 in Toronto 458 drinking drivers were involved irk accidents, In 1949 the number had increased to 924. In. Sweden they have coped suc- cessfully with this menace by giv- ing the police power to make blood alcohol tests on all drivers, If the alcohol percentage is 'above the equivalent of one medium drink of whisky the driver is sent to jail, The Huron, Temperance Fedora- tion asks for this drastic action. Advo. I• 0 ... AHD THAT'S HOW uva, budttk, s It's the biggest contract I ever went after, so I lost no time in getting over to my bank manager. "George," I said, "I'll need some help to handle a job this size." We went over the whole thing, discussed how much I would need. When I landed the contract he gave me a line of credit and I was able to go right ahead. Now the school's as good as built. It is an everyday part of your local bank manager's job to provide short-term credit— so that payrolls can be met, material bought, goods produced and marketed. If SPONSORED BY YOUR BANK
