1. One person in ten can expect to be seriously injured or killed in a road acci­dent during their lifetime, according to Prof. W. G., director of the Road Injuries Research Group at the Birmingham Accident Hospital, in a report issued today. The report is concerned with ways of reducing the 24,000 deaths in Britain each year of men and women below the age of 45. It concentrates on accidents, cancer, heart disease and suicide, which between them cause three quarters of these young adult deaths. In a foreword, Mr G. Т., director, Office of Health Economics, sug­gests that 6,000 to 7,000 young lives could be saved each year if attention was con­centrated on preventing the four main causes of premature death.

2. The Geneva conference having failed to secure an agreement, there was no way of telling what the outcome will be.

3. After months of talks and Cabinet discussions, the Government has told us what power it intends to hold over pay negotiations in the future, after "severe re­straint" has ended. Part II of the Price and Incomes Act is to be "activated", to follow the period of "severe restraint" due to end in a few months time. Increases in both incomes and prices are to be vetted through "early-warning measures". As far as prices are concerned the system (here: the Price and Incomes Act) is supposed to concentrate on those of eco­nomic significance, especially those affecting the cost of living. Part II enforces the notification of wage claims, by either the employer or the union, within seven days of their being lodged. Notification has to be made to the appropriate Gov­ernment Minister.

5. Far from steering a middle course, or a modern course, or making changes, or bringing Socialist aims up to date, as in turn he claimed, he is operating a Tory-Right Wing Labor mixture of policies as old-fashioned as top hats on Palace coach­men, but not nearly as harmless or funny. The Prime Minister said that the July measures, "so far from threatening the nation with continuing unemployment, by creating the opportunity for a new break-through in exports and production, hold out the surest guarantee we have of full employment for a generation."

6. Far from being a vote-winner, the Budget seems to have driven a bigger proportion of voters than ever to turn away from the Tories at the Derby North by-election.

9. Having refused to recognize this in time, Washington was forced to retreat, under the pressure of rather embarrassing circumstances, from the juridical sound but politically unrealistic position it had enjoined on the United States dele­gation to the U.N.

10. "Our Government is taking a huge gamble in going into the Common Mar­ket in the belief that a single integrated large industrial area represents the best outlet for our products. This strategy is obviously very risky. Instead of going after the maximum amount of international trade, we are tying ourselves to a tight restrictive group fiercely competing among each other for vital markets in North America."

11. With no party having an over-all majority, and the political stalemate re­newed, the three possible coalitions are: Christian Democrats with Free Democ­rats; Social Democrats with Free Democrats; and last, but by no means least likely, a continuation of the 'Grand Coalition' between the Christian Democrats and the Social Democrats.
