attempting to get all citizens. whether

in making the streets of the National
Capital safe. At present spirit seems
tain classes are responsible for the acct
dents which are now happening almost
daily
Many vehiclists have declared that If
the pedestrians would obey the law no
accidents would happen and on the other
hand some pedestrians have claimed that
If the vehclists would obey the law no
accidents would happen,
This only shows. it is said that the
fault lies between both Sehiclists and
pedestrians. The majority Of persons who
have been questioned so far have been of
the opinion that the fault is two-sided.
and that only through the joint co-opera-
ton of drivers and pedestrians can the
streets be made safe. To promote this
idea and 10 secure this spirit. not only in
the majority of people. but among prac-
tically all people, will probably be under
