A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF BALDWIN PARK URGING ALL CITIZENS
TO SUPPORT THE HOLIDAY SAFETY PROGRAM OF
THE NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCIL IN PREVENTING
TRAFFIC, PEDESTRIAN AND OTHER ACCIDENTS
DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
WHEREAS, the Christmas season marks that time of year in
which we celebrate a holiday dedicated to Peace on Earth and Good
Will Toward Men"; and
WHEREAS, the prevailing spirit of Yuletide fellowship is
often marred by the occurrence of needless traffic accidents, turning
a time of joy and happiness into one of heartbreak and despair; and
WHEREAS, the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of the National
Safety Council reminds us that more fatal traffic accidents, includ-
ing more pedestrian deaths, happen each Christmas Eve than at any
other comparable time of the year, with darkness, speed, alcohol and
pedestrian errors the causes of the high toll; and
WHEREAS, fears have been expressed that the season's high-
way toll may reach an all-time high unless drivers and pedestrians
take extra precaution; and
WHEREAS, the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of the National
Safety Council is asking all organizations to eliminate the serving
of alcoholic beverages at traditional office Christmas parties as a
practical attempt to eliminate a definite source of death and des-
truction on the highway;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Baldwin Park City
Council fully supports the holiday safety program and urges all our
citizens to do everything in their power to prevent accidents during
the holiday season; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Baldwin Park City Council
supports the program of the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of the
National Safety Council and urges all organizations having office
