ROOSEVELT PRAISES PROGRESS
SIvE PLATFORM. e
Makes Address at Party Clam
Bake at Newport. RI

Newport, r. l., July 1.-The demand
made in the first national platform of
the Progressive party for regulation
of corporations ADD combinations to
ENSURE their doing justice to their
rivals, to their customers and to their
employees" has been emphasized,
Theodore Roosevelt declared this after
noon at the clambake which opened the
national conference of the Progressive
party, by what has occurred since
election in the West Virginia bitumin-
Gus coal fields.
In opening his speech Colonel Roose-
welt pointed to the Progressive plat
form upon which he ran for the presi
dency last fall as document which up
holders of social and industrial justice
in the future will recognize as one of
the great documents of American po-
litical history. From it lie cited two
demands-th the first that the national
government undertake on a gigantic
scale the work of Harvesting the flood
waters of the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers, using for that purpose the out
fit that has been used in the construc-
ton of the Panama Canal. The second
demand already referred to, Colonel
Roosevelt dwelt upon at considerable
length. He quoted from court decis-
ions and declared that he wished he
could make the men of property under
stand that in fighting such decisions
and such conditions as in West Virginia
he was fighting against anarchy in
favor of law and order and for prop
erty.
1.-The utter futility of the plan of
action, or rather non-action, advocated
in both the Republican and Democratic
platforms last year, and christened by
President Wilson with magniloquent
vagueness, The New Freedom has
been strikingly shown by what has thus
occurred in West Virginia" Colone
Roosevelt declared. 1.-The New Free.

of the strong to prey on the weak, Of
the big men to crush the little men, anc
to shield their iniquity beneath the cry
that they are exercising freedom"
Colonel Roosevelt's speech this after
noon sounded the keynote of the Pro
gressive policies and opened the discus
sion of party ideals and ideas that will
continue two days. Referring again t.

AUTO ACCIDENTS AND
BOSTON.
Acct
Deaths. dents
BY JAMES C. WHITE.

With a record of l42 killed and 1868
injured in 1912, and q killed and 1913 in
jured in the first three months of 1913
by automobiles, all totals marking a
substantial increase over those of the
year previous, the problem of curbing
the reckless automobilist has once
again been brought to the front not
only in Boston but the State over.
1t is true the general increase in
deaths in 1912 over 1911 exactly equals
the increased registration of cars, but
the prospect that the number killed and
injured is to go up in this way year
after year with the registration does not
bring any special satisfaction.
Indeed these figures coupled with GER
tain very distressing fatal accidents of
the last few weeks and months, in
which the drivers have actually run
away from their victims, their identity
becoming known only after exhaustive
police hunts throughout the State, has
caused a sudden awakening on all sides
Automobiles themselves 49, nde e d
they are foremost in it-have joined with
common users of the highways to voice
general protest against the increase
in the speed mania as shown in careless
and reckless driving upon the roads.
Not only do the motorists feel that the
men who do these wrongs should be
hunted down and driven from behind
the steering wheels of cars, but they
also appreciate that the net result is apt
to be an arousing in public sentiment
which will work its effect upon the
most conservative of them.
For the first time in years, the full
size of the problem of the reckless mo-
florists is disclosed. But, with that dis
closure they also find peculiar con-
dition exists. OF the existence of the
reckless man they have no reason to
doubt. They find it almost weekly on
the front pages of the newspapers, they
have almost daily experiences on the
highways while driving their own cars
in full observance of the rules laid
down.
SOLUTION A PUZZLE.
But somehow the way out of the
problem or the discovery of an effective
way to meet the situation, is what is
escaping them. This may seem a rather
extraordinary statement, but after a
canvass of the best authorities in that
line, to wit; the highway commission.
the police department, and certain of
the district attorneys and the officials
of the various good roads and highway
safety leagues, the astonishing fact is
disclosed, that while all agree that
speeding and reckless operation is in

some of which might be disaproved in
court. Each and every one of these
cases represents a specific charge made
to the highway commission which was
sustained after full investigation and
hearing. And yet the court ecords for
the same set of cases show that only
seven men were sentenced to Jail for
their offences the State over.
These figures not only show the need
of activity, but also disclose how in
effective the methods being pursued
really are.
George Sargent, secretary of one of
the good roads organizations, admits
frankly that he does not see the way
clear to meet the matter.
81 am inclined to think" he said re-
Gently, that possibly the creation of a
special court to handle such cases will
help matters. / am not positive on that
point, but it is only suggestion.
Lawrence G. Brooks, of another one
of the more important associations, is
trying to work out plan and the first
step is the securing of pledges for the
actual support of the necessary work,
and public attention just now is cen.
tired so sharply, not only on the reck-
less motorists but the need of curbine
them, that he has hopes of working out
an ending.

The above is an excellent article for
it throws light upon the situation, of
which two things are beyond question.
First; that there is no possible way of
avoiding these fearful and frequently
mex disable accidents, except to forbid
all automobiles from using the public
roads, and requiring them to build their
own roads.
Give US our roads again. Already
the farmers of this State begin to make
this cry. Automobiles should have
their own roads, and should not be per-
mitted to use any that are built by the
Citizens of the State, and very largely
by the Farmers of the State.

NEW YORK, July During all

only way to make money is to work

he arrived in this hospitable village
on June "a. Four days later he was
going to accompany a steamship TO
the other side.
He registered at the Hotel Mar

young man.
In the cafe the addressed young
man was met by a friend who almost
tore a pocket in trying to remove an
obese roll Of yellowbacks in an I'M

This is a mere nothing, said the
friend, CarelcSgIy. when ! see so

That called for an explanation. and
il was given. BY tapping the wires
that carry racing results one could
make a fortune in 20 minutes.

LABOR PROPOSES
CHARTER LANKS
Day and Minimum
Wage Scale Asked by Fed
GRAFTON of Trades.

An eight-hour working day for arti-
sans and mechanics EMPLOYED on CITY and
city contract work and a minimum wage
scale for all municipal employees is the
offering of the Atlanta Federation OF
Trades for Atlanta's proposed charter
reform
Members OF the Atlanta central labor
body today have taken the position that
the new charter should include labor re-
forms long advocated by Georgia trades
unions, The unionists will oppose con-
sfstently any attempt to fix the trustees
salaries higher than the salary paid the
mayor now.
Resolutions recommending that the
views of the labor organizations be made
part of the new charter were adopted by
the federation at a regular meeting last
night and put in the hands of commit
tee for transmission to the charter com
mission. Labor advocates decided unani-
mously on the eight-hour day and the
minimum wage scale.
Would Change Petition Plans
The initiative, referendum and recall
features of the proposed charter were dis
cussed at length. Members of the fed
GRAFTON decided in favor of a 10 per cent
initiative petition, Is per cent for refer
endum and rs per cent for recall, as
against the higher percentages for ini-
tlative and recall provided for in the
charter drawn by the committee OF
twenty.
Speeches in favor of the eight-hour
day were made by Earle E. Griggs, of
the Typograp hical union, and Carl Kars-
ton, of the BARRIERS union, and 1t was
Mr.. Karston's report, as chairman of
the educational committee. which brought
out the minimum wage scale and other
features adopted. Eight-hour workday
advocates asserted that all government
work was conducted on this plan sue.
