Alderman Thomson's ordinance es-
tablished the precedent of requiring
the use of the warning signal to be
restricted to times of danger His
ordinance was the first to put in tae
form of law the plain fact that the
sole purpose of the automobile horn
is to give warning OF peril.
1T is no use trying to beg the
question" said Alderman Thomson.
Ny attention was first called to the
need of legislation by the bedlam
