A Way To Stop
Speeding Autoists
Along Anderson Ave.

A "Pallsadian" reporter had an in
teresting conversation with a prom-
nent Pahsade automobilist the other
day. They were talking along general
lines when the topic turned to the
automobiles that use Anderson ave-
nue. as race track and thus en-
danger the lives of many Palisadians
There are several things which the
people living along Anderson avenue
could do to lessen this DANGER" said
he. Zone method, which is now being
worked out in New Jersey, and which
is having good results, IS that of tax
ing the numbers of all speeders and
sending them to Mr.. Dill, the Com
missioner Of Motor Vehicles of the
State. When he receives these COM
plants, he sends warning letters to
the offenders. These often serve to
make the drivers more conservative,
especially through the towns. There
is a way of keeping a record of ali
complaints at Trenton, and a second
or third offense is a pretty serious
thing.
"Then there is the method" he con-
tlnued, "of placing the speed law
signs at both ends of the town, along
with the penalty for violating them.
In several towns l have been through,
they have a sign at the end of the
town you enter saying, Please OBJ
serve our speed and traffic laws and
another at the other end saying,
Thank you While this usually
warns the heart of motorist, be-
lieve the surest way to stop the
speeding is that of reporting all Of
tenders directly to Trenton"

The old machine shops and foundry

bundles are being run through the 10
thrashers to separate the seeds from
the straw. The seeds are swept up and
taken to the cleaners where they are
hulled and the cnaff blown from the
seeds so That the state will be able to
| provide the growers with plenty of
cleaned seed tor next years planting.
The first problem that confronted the
builders of the pen plant was the dis
posal of the dust that arose from the
fans of the cleaners and the thrashing
machines This was solved by Engineer

About 100 tons have been thrashed
