LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
HINT FOR NEXT LEGISLATURE.
Correspondent Wants More Effective Measure
Regulating Speed of Automobiles.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The reckless manner in which vehicles Of all
kinds are permitted to rush nadly through quiet
country roads and the crowded streets OF cities
IS revolving humanity and to the civilization of
the twentieth century. Not day goes by but the
public press chronicles the particulars Of some
heartrendng accident. caused By Needless chauf-
feurs careless rnotornen.
Hundreds Of years ago. in England there was
custom 4 relic Of the common law, making IT COM
pulsory upon the local authorities utterly to de-
stroy as a loathsome thing vehicle through
whose instrumentalty the death OF a citizen oc-
Cured.
Possibly we may proitably follow this example
In the cas- Of automobiles used solely for pleasure
and driven by sporting and the inheritors of
wealth whose sole occupation seems TO be an in
dulGance in pleasure at the expense of the lives Of
their fellow beings.
BE this as may. the next session of our Legis-
leture should he allowed to end without an
ironclad and effective measure regulating the speed
Of automobiles trolley cars and motor cycles.
If we stand by silently. making no remonstrance
against an indiscriminate slaughter of unfortunate
pedestrians by these carriages of a modern era,
such apathy and inacton Will result in permissible
race suicide. FOR which there is justifabe excuse

Sir: Since the Henley regatta stewards gave no.

more trenchant criticism home than from abroad.
and this has called forth various inspired eSplana-
tons many Of them couched in somewhat indig-
nant terms The words funk and "unsportsman-
like" have grIeved and panied the Henley stewards
ard their coufrkres.
II IS course. all account Or the Olynpiad-

that the royal regatta should have nothing OF an
international character about II. for n il had IL

That it IS said. Is the paramount reason for the
