AT Last a Life
Saving Discovery

- ARREST every automobile driver who
exceeds a speed of 20 miles an hour is
the word that has gone forth from the
police commissioner Office to the force,
backed by the declaration that it goes.
Thistle simplest preventive Of street
slaughter-has been the longest coming.
But at that the edict lets the drivers
strain the law TO the extent of five miles
"a 15-nile limit having been fixed by or
dinanee in the interest of the continuing
life Of pedestrians and sane drivers.
The malady that prevails among De-
troit motorists is virulent speed obses-
sion.
The rate at which they go is more i'm
portant than destination or what they
do when they get there; or the fate Of
the unfortunates who chance to cross
their path.
Hence the mounting death rate-sacri-
fees upon the altar of Anticipated We
locity.
II having been proven that these
paranoiacs will not go slow for life and
limbs sake, for humanity's sake. or-we
say it reverently-for Gods sake, they
should be thrown into prison.
A fine-even a stiff one-only adds TO
the fascination Of making the people
who Insist upon cluttering up the
street" jump for their very lives.

Why Germany Clings
To Alsace-L0rraine

The average person when he reads Ger
many pronunciamentoes that they Will
war on forever rather than consider Civ
ing up Alsace Lorraine, taken from the
French after the war Of 1870 thinks it is
due to a natural reluctance to give up
something taken by conquest. But there
is more than a sentimental reason ami
mating France with keen desire TO re-
gain her lost provinces.
The chances are Germany would not
have made war. and would not have been
in the position to make war if it had not
been for robbing France Of Alsace-I or
rainc.
BY taking these provinces Germany
took over the Sarre basin with It's great
coal fields. 1t is true Germany already
had a considerable portion OF the Goa
fields Of Europe, but the advantage Of
the Saire deposits is their location. Tho
bis thing The Prussians gained was IN,
Briey and Longwy iron deposit. How inn
Portant these fields are to Germany is in
dicated by the fact that in 1913 of %.

Fiscal. Affairs of the State.
At the outset We must acknowledge
openly and squarely that this state
cannot be maintained on zour. pres
en-. revenue. The first and most i'm
portsnt question which confronts us
is the problem of raising enough rev
enue to properly conduct the actiyi-
ties of the ste4e. There is demand
FOR immediate and positive legisla-
ton to provide for the three thou
sand prisoners which are now con-
sined in our state peDitentiary. We
can no longer continue to neglect the
charging OF our elsemosynary institu-
lions We must provide larger ap-
preparations for our educational in
stitutions, and such provision must
not only be adequate but available.
We can no longer continue policy
which forces various institutions for
months during the year either to Dor
row money at exorbitant rates of in
terest or TO close their doors.
The people Of Missouri expect us
10 work out. a feasible plan that will
provide the revenue necessary 10
maintain our institutions without en-
barrassment and without stint. In
order to do this there must be a
change in the present financial plan.
The last legislature, after cutting
appropriations as far as possible and
still maintain the standard OF our in
stitutions, over appropriated the bien-
NAL revenue s5,361 1929. The gov
ernor vetoed and held up during this
period approximately two and a
half million dollars OF this amount.
The institutions of the state. how
ever, could not be closed. The rev
enue has not been sufficient; and on
December 31st, 1916. the unpaid bills
in the auditors office amounted TO
s1,152,45S.90. In addition to this there
was an amount due the Confederate
soldiers and owners of livestock
slaughtered to prevent the spread OF
contagious diseases, s393,1S0.S6. And
TO this must be added salaries and
obligations incurred in 1915, but not
filed with the auditor on the 31st OF
December. 1916, which would prob
ably amount to $250.000. Thus these
three items together will make a total
deficit Of approximately s1,S00,000,
for which you must provide. This,
with our annual decrease in revenue
from liquor license, and a decrease
annually of 100000 due TO abolishing
the contract system in the peniten-
tiary, brings lis face to face with q
| crisis.
This situa ton cannot continue. We
| must completely remodel and rehabili-
| tate the finances of this state imme-
diately. The revenue of Nineteen Hun
dred and Seventeen on the present
| basis will be approximately five and
| three-quarters million dollars. II we
deduct the deficit and the appropria-
tons necessary. for educational pur'
poses, which last year aggregated
about three million dollars land this
year should be morel. the entire rev
| enue for 1917 will be absorbed, ex-
cept approximately one million dol
