RULE DEEMED CRUEL TO HORSE
Policemen Criticise Right Reg
ulation on West M Street.

A traffic regulation which several po-
1icemen declare is cruelty to horses is
the enforcement of the law that horse
drawn vehicles keep to the right curb
on NJ street, from Saith street down to
the Aqueduct bridge.
1.-The drivers are compelled TO keep
their teams to the right curb, and it is
all the animals can do to keep from
falling" said policeman today. The
street is slippery at all times, and even
in dry weather numerous horses fall.
Their feet slide from under them when
they get too near the curb.
"In bad weather. he said, st is al
most impossible for horse to walk along
the street / think something ought to
be done to regulate the conditions there.
] don't believe driver of a team ought
TO be prosecuted in the Police Court if
he does not keep his team over to the
right curb along NJ street between the
points named. He takes a chance of
having his horses leg broken by falling
on the street"

safety and we'll being could not at nrSt

ployed in the mines. he said.
Trespassers are the great bane OF the
railroads, said Mr. Kicker. Fifteen tres
passers are killed every day. he said. The
carelessness of automobilists who try to
go across a railroad crossing at forty
miles an hour and who disregard the
warming sign. stop, look and listen,
also add greatly to the death rate OF
railroads, he said. Individuals. he de-
clared, must be brought to realize their
share Of responsibility before they are
killed or manned for life"

At Liberty Hall yesterday. the first

To Enroll Volunteers.
Last night d meeting which deserves
much more attention was held I'm the ro-
tunda gardens skating rink. It was a
public meeting for the enrolment of the
first Dublin corps of Irish volunteers. The
object of this corps, set out in the no
tice of the meeting, is to secure and main
tain the common rights of the whole Irish
people. 1t is, however. a purely national
list movement and is to be a set-off to the
unionist volunteer movement in the north.
The skating rink, which is capable of
holding an audience of 5000, was crowd
ed and strong, hostile element was pres
ent. Larkin's transport workers Were
against the objects of the meeting and in
terrupted at every point.

Safety first"
That was the sentiment that stood out
predominant in the addresses OF all the
speakers at the mass meeting under the
auspices Of the Street Safety Association
of the District, held at the Church of Our
Father, Universalist. last evening. The
speakers included Commissioner Freder-
ick l.. Siddons. DIR. Joseph A. Holmes.
director of the bureau of mines; DIR. Will
liam NJ. Davidson. superintendent of public
schools; and Ralph j. Kicker. represent
ing the Pennsylvania railroad.
The necessity for a traffic squad" and
for more power for the Commissioners in
making traffic regulations, was urged by
Mr.. Siddons. He explained that the board
at present Is considering the establish
ment of traffic squad whose duties shall
be TO facilitate the movement of traffic
In Washington. He called attention to
the manner in which traffic is handled in
London, but declared it was accomplished
not so much by the hobbies holding up
their hands and stopping vehicles but be-
cause the individuals realized their re-
sponsibilities in following the traffic regu-
lations.
Making Laws Effective.
I'VE in this country have gotten into
the bad habit of thinking with the
enactment of a law or regulation all of
our various ills can be gotten rid Of"
he said. Never will we have success
fuI enforcement of the traffic laws ex-
cept through the cooperation of
pedestrians. If you want safety for
yourselves it is incumbent upon you
to study the traffic regulations; to
know not only your rights, but your
duties"
Washington as yet has no serious
traffic problem, declared the speaker;
although in some places, such as +
street and on New York avenue be-
tween 14th and 10Th streets, problems
are presented
The fact that thirty-two persons were
killed in traffic casualties last year
and 1.246 were injured should act as
a warning, he said, that I'VE are be-
ginning to encounter the danger of
moving about on our broad streets and
avenues" He declared that the regu-
lations must be enforced against
pedestrians as well as drivers
DR.. Davidson pointed to the work of
the association as only one of num-
"a larger humanism than the world
has ever known before" The. work
of the Street Safety Association, he
said. was to protect people against
themselves. Ninety-five per cent of the
life of the man or woman who is doing
good is devoted to saving people from
themselves, declared the speaker
He pointed out the pecessity for re-
specting the regulations. mot because
they are regulations, but because they
are designed to protect human life"
