never have seen any men more closely

couldn't pick them up They would

made me very sick
1T was then that I got out OF the

STREET ACCIDENTS.

Editor FL PaSO Herald
I am the owner and sole operator
OF bus 227 on the Val Verde line and
therefore do not agree with the state
ment made recently by woman that
all Park jitne drivers are reckless.
am saying this not only in beha u
Of myself, but also in behalf Of the
majority Of Park drivers, with the
exception Of six or eight who have
no more right TO operate A car than
a whole lot OF others who are not
1itne drivers
Whether rich or poor. truck driver
or car driver. motorcycle riders in
uniform or out Of il. there are reck-
less drivers in all classes.
There are a good many civilians
doing stunts with their big cars that
the most reckless jitne driver must
look upon them with envy Then.
why. if this Is true, put all the blame
on us2
Has there never been anybody hurt
or killed by any other car than the
jitne? Are there not enough facts TO
prove to the contrary
As far as accidents are concerned
as long as there are any kind OF au-
tomobiles running on the streets there
will be accidents. but let US analyze
what causes them
In the first place. we will place
the blame on the reckless driver IN
the second place on the careless chill
dren and negligent parents who allow
their children TO wander on the busy
streets in the third place. on whisky
and other liquors. and. fourth. the bad
shape of some Of the streets IN the
city
II any one wishes TO see close
shaves. let them ride with US on Ma
coffin avenue from Cotton 10 Laurel
and see the narrow escapes due to
the many chuck holes on either side
Of the street
Another cause Of many a narrow
escape is the wagon or automobile

gigantic that the entire people will
have to work to solve them. A strong
foreign policy will be necessary, for

such policy II the patriotism, which
during ths war has developed to such

that the inaintenaace Of patriotism
could only be achieved by granting
the peopls In general equal cooper
