Fewer Deaths by Auto.

According to the report of the Ma
tional Highways. Protective Society, 290
persons were Killed on the streets of
Greater New York by automobiles dur
ing the past year. This is decrease.
The figures for 1918 were 302. In deaths
by trolleys there were 100. as against
10S In 1913; 12S were killed by wagons,
whereas 40 met their deaths in that
way in 1913.
Col. Edward S. Cornell, secretary of
the society, said that the decrease in
the mum ber of deaths is due to the fact
that the majority of automobiles are
operated by licensed chauffeurs. that
the traffic squad has been increased and
that mail trucks are now forced to obey
regular traffic rules.
Outside of the city of New York
where most of the cars are operated by
owners. there were 310 persons killed
by automobiles in the state. In 1918
there were 149. The report also shows
that 81 persons were killed by trolley
cars and 80 by wagons. The correspond
ing figures for 1913 were 10 and 30.
Buffalo's record alone was 72 deaths by
automobiles.

Checking Sparkplug Leakage.

Sparkplug leakage is a frequent, and
usually unsupported, source of power loss.
Most plugs have a tendency to leak when
run very hot, and for this reason it is
well to make an occasional test at the
end of run by dropping little oil
around the packing joints and watching
for bubbles. With a good plug such
leakage can usually be obviated by taking
up the packing gland.

SKILL IN SUPERVISION
OF ROAD WORK IN j. S.
Suggestion Made by American High.
way Association and Civil Service
Reform League.

i A concerted movement for skilled
| supervision of roadwork throughout
the United States has been launched
| by the American Highway Association
and the National Civil Service Reform
! League. These two great organizations
co-operated in the holding of session
at the recent American road congress
in Atlanta devoted to a consideration
of the merit system in road manage
ment. The United States civil service
commission was represented by CHIEF
! Examiner George r. Wales. who point
ed out the manifest advantages of
competitive qualification tests as a
requisite for appointment to Office.
Explains the System.
To combat the rather general i'm
preston that competitive examinations
In all cases mean the answering OF
stereotyped technical questions, Mr..
Wales said:
For these high-grade positions
where men of experience and attain
ments are needed, an examination Is
given which does not require the com
petitors to assemble at any place or TO
answer technical questions. They are
called upon to furnish. under oath, a
detailed statement of their education
they have done since graduation. They
also may be asked to submit an orig
inal thesis or report on published
works. and they are required to give
the names of persons able and com
petent to testify as to their experience
and personal fitness.
confidential inquiry is made by the
commission from various sources as
the applicant Gratifyingly accurate
and discriminating testimony is OBJ
tanned by this means of confidential
communication. Such testimony ap-
proximates, if not equals, the testimony
adduced upon crossexaminati tion in
judicial proceedings. A demonstration
of the ability of the competitive sys-
tenn to obtain high-class men for tech
nical positions has been made within
the past year, in connection with the
employment of men to appraise the
value of the property of common car
riers in the United States
Statement of Qualifications.
For this work the interstate COM
merce commission required men with
qualifications ranging all the way from
rodman and chairman to senior posi-
tions in civil, mechanical, structural,
electrical and architectural engineer
ing, as well as motive power men and
expert accountants.
There have been approximately
$4,000 applicants for these positions,
and the task of sitting the wheat from
the chaff and of grading the wheat
after the sitting was one of consider
able magnitude: but it was done, and
1t was done SO well that the Interstate
commerce commission expressed its
qualification to find that it could Sc
cure force SO well equipped to per-
form the gigantic task Of obtaining
an accurate appraisal of the value Of
common carrier property. A system
which can successfully secure a COM
petent force of high-grade engineers
for this valuation work could surely
provide the proper kind of men to have
charge of the construction and main
tenance Of public highways"
It is nticipated that steps will be
taken to wage an active campaign in
every state for the elimination Of the
spoil system and to substitute for. it
the merit system.

This will be the final link in the

this highway will be hailed with joy
