THE RIGHT OF PEDESTRIANS TO
LIFE.

The menace to life and limb by rea-
son OF reckless driving on the streets
Of Durham grows more and more
serious every day. Drivers of auto
mobiles and other vehicles seem TO
have lost all sense OF the right OF
pedestrians 10 life TO say nothing OF
the pursuit OF happiness. Traffic on
Main street is always crowded and
drivers of automobiles and heavy
truck wagons act as If they were ut
terly obliyious Of the presence of
lighter vehicles and pedestrians. Al
most every day there is an accident
of some kind-there were three acct
dents Thursday-and the situation
has become such as to demand at
tention from the authorities who have
in charge the enforcement Of traffic
laws in the city.
In almost every country except the
United States, drivers Of automobiles
are required TO demonstrate their fit
ness for such a responsible position
before they are allowed to 60 on the
public thoroughfares with their death
dealing machines. In the United
States. and especially in North Caro-
lima. almost any kind OF irresponsible
person is allowed to run an antomo-
bile and run II over almost anybody
or anything that happens TO be in the
road Savage minded negroes .who
couldn't keep a mule in furrow are
brought to town. put in a suit OF lly-
cry and allowed to menace the lives
Of everybody on the roads and streets
childrenwho formerly got thair
amusement out Of hobby horses. are
now allowed TO amuse themselves b
running down pedestrians. The rights
Of pedestrians and drivers Of light
vehicles to life and safety demands
that some more stringent laws be en-.
acted and that the laws already en-.
acted be enforced.

SOUTH CARoIINA poLITIcs.
