ing signals. and electric light effects
which simulate moving lights are al
ready in use to a limited extent.
And the limitation of speeds in fog
serves as a reminder that limitation is
not only possible, but reasonable. at all
times. We have discussed the distant
signal. because the demand for it is
not entirely unreasonable; there are
places. no doubt, where it would facili-
tate traffic without much increase Of eX-
pense and without enhancement Of dan
ger. But why should not the automo-
bilist, for his own benefit, and his own
peace of mind. run slowly at all places
except where he can see a clear road?
To assume that there is no crossing
(or other danger) unless he sees it is
to act like a blind man. To run at high
speed when he has the affirmative testi-
mony OF his own eyes, that the roadway
for a long distance ahead is clear and
unobstructed may be proper-if he is not
infringing the rights OF other automo-
biles-but in any other condition he has
no reasonable right to run otherwise
than under control. Only by the intro
duction OF the block system, like the
block system of the railroads, can such
practice fairly be tolerated.
In view of the conditions touched up
on. and of other considerations which
the reader will call to mind, we are in
clined therefore to look with a very
friendly eye on the proposal for a posi-
tive speed reducer at crossings. Max
ing a sharp turn in the road will COM
pei everybody to run at moderate speed
There would be no injustice in this. The
railroads have to have arbitrary speed
limits. In the absence OF adequate in
terlocked signals all trains at crossings
and functions are required by very
rigid rules to run at low speed, and us
ually to stop. The distant signal idea
has merit, even with the speed limit
ing angle in the road: and it may be
that we ought to have both. A dis
tant signal can serve to warn all who
wish to be warned: but there will still
be the reckless drivers to be reckoned
with.

PROSPECTS GLOOMY AT

Six Veterans Are Injured in Scrim-

Prospects for a successful football sea-

them to remain out of the game for in

he would not permit the team TO play

After much persuasion he decided to

HIGH SCHOOLS FALL
BEFORE GALLAUDET
Western Handed 7 to 3 Trimming BY
Buff and Blue Reserves, and Tech
Loses to Varsity, "a TO O.

Because of a miX-up in dates, some
thing in the line of a football carnival
was held at the Gallaudet Field yes
terday. when both the Technical High
School team and the Western High
School eleven showed up to battle the
Buff and Blue. and after much wran-
Cling the coach of the Kendall Green
ers agreed to play both teams.
Coach Morse's Red and White young
sters were the first to be taken on,
going two eight-minute periods against
the Reserves of the Buff and Blue
without either eleven scoring and in
what was to have been the second half
the warriors from Technical High bat
tied the varsity, which rolled up four
teen points in two eight-minute Pc
RODS.
The Red and White was then called
upon to go two more eight-minute
periods, and after six minutes of play
little Andrewjaskie, the quarter back
for the Buff and Blue eleven, carried
the pigskin across the south goal. In
the next period Pepper, the midget
pilot of the boys across the Creek,
placed the ball neatly over the cross
bars from the 25-yard line for a field
goal
The Manual Trainers were thorough
ly outclassed in the two final periods
of the evening. the Buff and Blue
gladiators carrying the ball at will and
executing the forward pass for long
gains time and time again. When the
final whistle sounded the call of time
the scores stood-Gallaudet Reserves,
Z: Western. 3. Gallaudet Varsity, "a;
Technical, 0.
The three coaches followed the plays
on the field, and time and again switched
the men and corrected the different
formations and all seemed very we'll
satisfied after the contest Coach
Kraft, of Gallaudet, was more than
satisfied with the showing OF the Buff

Former Chairman Of
Currency Committee in
House Gives Views

Charles y. Fowler. OF Elizabeth, a
former member of the House, in which
he once held the position of Chairman
of the Committee on Banking and Cur
rency, appeared as a witness before the
Senate committee yesterday.
Mr.. Fowler believes that all the
United States government . per cent
bonds should be retired at once and in
their place per cent issue put
forth. Then, he believes that the bonds
held by the Treasury as security for
national bank circulation should be re-
stored to the banks, who would be at
liberty to hold or dispose of them as
they saw fit.
The note circulation Of the national
hank should be undisturbed, in Mr.. Fow-
ler's opinion, but an insurance fund
amounting to per cent of the issues of
the various national banks should be
set aside. The arbitrary per cent in
surance fund. Mr.. Fowler felt, would
be sufficient for twenty-five years TO
come, basing its retention by the Treas
ury Department upon the known statis-
tics that losses to depositors through
bank failures for the past twenty-five
years had been annually less than one
fifth of l per cent
This change would. according to Mr..
Fowler. put at once into the hands of the
banks s750,OOO,00O of free money for use in
commerce and manufacture and correct
the existing inelasticity of the American
currency system.
One of the chief features of the Glass
Owen measure to which Mr. Fowler took
exception was the makeup of the Federal
Reserve Board. He objects most strong
ly is the inclusion in the membership
of the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Secretary of Agriculture and the Comp
troller of the Currency. Mr.. Fowler
deems it inadvisable to add to the bur
den of responsibility of these officials,
particularly the Cabinet officers.
President Wilson narrowly escaped los
ing his position as president of Princeton
University because he espoused the short
ballot, thereby defying the "trustocracy"
which is alleged to control economic
teachings in American colleges, according
to G. H. SHIRLEY. of Washington, who
also appeared before the committee yes
terday.
Mr.. SHIRLEY had declared that teachers
of economics were compelled to teach
false and deceitful theories of sound
money and false tenets of other economic
subjects because they would otherwise
lose their positions. Senator Weeks de-
manded that he be more specific in his
statement
Mr: SHIRLEY then said that Edward w.
Bemis was discharged from the Univer-

sity of Chicago because he told the
facts about the Chicago Gas Company"
that John X. Commons was driven from
the University OF Wisconsin because he
voted for Bryan and taught some OF his
economic theories; that James Allen
Smith, of Marietta College. lost his po-
sition for a similar reason. and that
President Wilson himself had a narrow
escape because Of his "heretical" teach
ings.
Mr. SHIRLEY said these were only few
instances of many in which sound money
forces had attempted to compel sub
servience to their will. He said that
Joseph Tumulty. now secretary to the
President. had taken his political life in
his hands when he introduced in the
New Jersey Legislature a bill for an ad-

The presence of dishes before him
that a stomach sufferer cannot eat,
makes him sick at his stomach, and he
is actually doing himself an injury
when he eats at such table.
A Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet taken
after each meal will excite appetite and
in a short time one will find the sight
of food becoming less and less repugnant
until after a few meals one will take
courage enough to join with the family
in the regular fare.
As soon as this is done and there fol-
lows no evil effects then by continuing
the use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
you will soon be restored to your nor
NAL, healthy, and vigorous appetite.
One of the real pleasures of eating
is the joy of smelling and seeing food.
.hese qualities are essential to the nor
NAL digestion, for they excite the flow
of saliva in the mouth, and the gastric
juices in the stomach and thus make
ready the digestive apparatus for the
food when il is eaten.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contain
ingredients that every system needs.
Weakened fluids of nature used in di-
gestion are quickly restored to their
normal proportion, and in short time
are so evenly balanced that the system
can manufacture its own pepsin and
