SANTA FE SAFETY MAN.
Commissioner of Safety of Santa Fe
Passed Throuqh Ardmore Friday.

The truth of the old saying that
there is nothing new under the sun"
was given additional proof Friday
when Mr.. Isaiah Hale, commissioner
of safety of the Santa Fe system
passed through Ardmore in a large
seven passenger automobile which Is
fitted with a new steel locker de
vice which fits over the regular rub
ber tires with which the car is
equipped, and locks inside steel
1anged tire (the tire device was pat
ented by the Railway Specially com
pany of AtchisOn, Kansas thus per
mitting the use of the car on the
railroad tracks. Accompanying Mr..
Hale were Mr.. +. Butcher, roadmas-
ter, northern division, Mr. X. f. Shir-
er, superintendent bridge and building
department, Mr., A. f. Hutchison,
transportation inspector, the car be-
ing in charge of Conductor J. w.
Laughin.
1t is now nearly three years since
the Santa Fe company inaugurated
a bureau of safety, which has, during
that time. directed its energies to-
wards reducing the toll of life and
limb, and the Santa Fe points, with
pardOnable pride, to q reduction of
oc nov cont in Dur,har of nn,nlo, O :
killed and a reduction of 10 per cent
in number of employees injured dur
ing 1911 as compared to 1913. The
general question of safety is largely
one of habit, of education; in preach
ing the gospel Of safety, Mr.. Hale
felt he was being handicapped in his
work by the fact that, travelling on
regular trains, it was possible for him
to stop only at division terminals,
and a few of the larger stations, not
reaching nearly 30 per cent of their
men who work at outlying points.
This track automobile is the result.
Using it, stop is made at, and a
few minutes spent with, every gang
of men regardless of the kind of
work they are doing. Not overlooking
their 10000 Mexican laborers, Mr.
Hale wrote a safety talk which was
later translated into pure Mexican;
this translation was put on phono
graph records, and as a phonograph
is a part of the equipment of the
automobile whenever a gang of Mex
leans is met, they listen to this talk
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-05-16

in their native tongue-a talk that
seemingly pleases them immensely.
Then they are invariably given La
Golons"ina" by the Mexican artillery
baGd. This selection holds in their
affections much the same place as
does Home Sweet Home" in ours.
Mr.. Hale will cover practically the
entire Santa Fe system before De
cember 81, probably reaching a total
of 10000 miles in that time.
The car attracts a great deal of at
tention everywhere, as it did here.
All employees are enjoined to Get
the Safety Habit" to remember that
1T is better to be always careful
than always crippled" and that "it
is better to be safe than sorry"
If you failed to see this car, you miss
ed seeing the most talked-of automo-
bile in this country today.

The University OF Chicago four
teenth annual interscholastic meet

The 76 entries in the tennis tour
nament lats year indicate that this

bunch of athletes that ever came to-
gether for an interscholastic and is
laying plans which will assure their
interesting entertainment from the

PLANS READY
FOR SUMMER
SCHOOLS NOW
TERMS BEGIN MAY "a IN STATE
NORMALS - EXTRA APPROPEI-
ALTON MADE BY RECENT LEG
ISlATURE,

Oklahoma City, May 15.-Plans
have been completed by the six nor
NAL schools and the state board of
education for the summer schools
that are to begin May "A and con-
tinue in session. Extra appropriation
to the amount of $1,000 for each of
these schools was made by the re
cent legislature. The normal school
at Edmond was given $4,000 the
enrolment there being much heavier
than at other points. 1t is expected
by State superintendent Wilson that
the enrolment in these summer
schools this year will be between
five and six thousand, 80 per cent Of
the attendants being rural school
teachers.
The number of graduates in the
several state normal schools was 250
last year, and it is said by the office
of state superintendent Wilson that
all but ten of these graduates are
now teaching in this state. The num-
Der of graduates from these schools
this year will be about the same. A
noteworthy feature in connection with
the graduating classes of next week
is that they will contain all the jun
iors of last year not one having
dropped out.
Superintendent Wilson and the
state board of education, together
with the presidents OF the normal
schools, have been discussing the
feasibility of a plan to merge all
the educational and advertising bull
letins of the state educational insti-
tutions into a weekly school journal
to be published under direction of
the state board of education and
circulated free to the teachers of
Oklahoma. It is expected to induce
cooperation and contribution by the
state board of agriculture to the eX-
department, which includes the A. &
NJ. college and the secondary agri-
cultural schools. 1t is believed that
the weekly journal can be produced
for about what the advertising and
educational bulletins now cost the
several schools, and that it will be
far more valuable to the schools and
to the teachers who are to receive it.
The matter is being investigated by
superintendent Wilson and the board
of education, and further steps will be
taken so that if the course shall be
adopted the journal will appear later
this summer and be in lieu Of other
publications by the schools.

REPATRIATION
FOR ENEMIES
Of ENGLAND
NEW POLICY ANNOUNCED IN THE
HOUSE OF COMMONS BY PRE-
MIER ASQUITH - WILL SEGRE-
GATE ALL ALIENS.

London, May 15-The government
proposes to segregate all adult male
enemies for their own safety and for
the safety Of the country" Premier
Asquith told the House of Commons
The premier announced that "all
male enemies over military age will
be repatriated." He also said that
women and children in suitable cases
will be repatriated though some
might remain.
In announcing the alien policy Of
the government the premier said
Premier's Announced Policy.
AT this moment some 10000 un-
naturalized aliens. of whom $4,000
are men, are. at large in this coun-
try. The government proposes that
all adult males of this class should,
for their own safety and that of the
country, be segregated and interned
If over the military age, they should
be repatriated
The government recognizes there
may be cases calling for exceptional
treatment. Women and children in
suitable cases should be repatriated.
but there no doubt will be many cases
in which justice and humanity will
require that they be permitted to
remain.
AN official body, judicial in char
acter, will be set up to deal with
claims for exception, and as soon as
the military and naval authorities
have provided the necessary accom-
modatiOns. those who have not Sc
cured exemption will be interned.
AS to NaturaIized Aliens.
''ln the case of naturalized aliens
who, in law, are British subjects,
numbering about 5000, the prima ia
Gle presumption should be the other
way, but exceptional cases estab-
lished to the satisfaction of the ad-
yising body will be specially dealt
with There must be powers of in
ternment in cases of proved neces-
sity or danger"
Premier Asquith mentioned inc
dentally that 10000 non-naturalized
alien enemies already had been in
termed in Great Britain.
Andrew Bonar Law, leader of the
opposition, said he welcomed the pre-
mier's statement for the reason that
the country was so aroused it was
liable to get out of hand.
