U.S. safety officials
urge 21 drinking age

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal
safety officials urged 35 states yester-
day to raise their drinking age to 21,
saying that a third of the people killed
in alcohol-related auto accidednts are
between the ages of 16 and 24.
"This is a national tragedy and a
natinal scandal," declared James Bur-
nett, chairman of the National Tanspor-
tation Safety Board, which called for
the uniform minimum drinking age.
THE BOARD, in letters to governors
and state legislatures, said surveys of
accident reports show a direct relation-
ship between the drinking age and the
number of young people killed in traffic
accidents involving alcohol.
The safety panel said its recommen-
dation was prompted by recent alcohol-
related auto crashes in which there
were a large number of young people
killed, including one crash on Long
Island that claimed nine lives.
there has been a move recently

toward higher drinking ages, reversing
a trend in the early 1970s when 24 states
lowered theirs to 18 and another six to
19. Fifteen states now have 21-year
minimum age requirements for the
purchase of alcoholic beverages.
"THE BOARD realizes this recom-
mendation will not be popular," Bur-
nett acknowledged. He noted a recent
decision by New York State to increase
its drinking age from 18 to 19 - a move
he termed inadequate - attracted "great
debate."
But he added: "We think the eviden-
ce is overwhelming and irrefutable that
raising the drinking ages to 21 will save
the lives of young Americans."
Citing a government study, Burnett
said that among nine states that recen-
tly raised their minimum drinking age,
eight have shown "a significant
decrease in accident rates at night
among young people."
