MIDDLE.OF.BLOCK
ACCIDENTS FREQUENT
Majority of Persons Injured While
Taking a Chance"

New York. Sept. l.-CIty Magistrate
w. Bruce Cobb, who has done con-
siderable Sitting in for Chief Magis-
trate William McAdoo and Magistrate
+. B. House, at the Traffic Court, said
he believes that a large proportion of
street accidents occur because pedes-
trians cross in the middle of the block.
This peril could be minimized, he
added, by giving the local authorities
power to regulate pedestrian traffic
and limit it to crosswalks and to
safety zones in the middle Of the long
crosstown blocks.
Analysis of the Police Department
records Of street accidents discloses
that more than one-half of them occur
in the middle of the block and are
chiefly due, the records furthermore
show. to an unregulated habit on the
part of the public of taking q
chance OF not being run down and
killed or injured by automobiles or
other motor vehicles.
Under the present Traffic Law, the
police and other local authorities are
powerless to regulate pedestrian traf-
nc, though they are given control over
the movements Of vehicles. According
TO statements by City Magistrate
Frederick B. House of the Traffic
Court and by Police Commissioner
Arthur Woods, already published in
these columns, an act of the Legisla-
ture alone can prevent people from
crossing the thoroughfares wherever
and whenever they please, in utter
disregard of risk to life and limb.
According to the July records of
street accidents, tabulated by Statisti-
clan Case of the Police Department,
1,279 OF the 2,322 that were due to
vehicle traffic occurred in the middle
of the black" by which is meant any
place on the block other than a cross
walk, safety isle or zone, or a side
walk.
In the 1922 accidents, 313 persons on
foot were hit by motor vehicles. 694
of them by pleasure cars and 2l9 by
motor trucks. OF the 913 persons
struck, SIS got their injuries in "the
middle of the block" while trying to
cross. S34 being run down by pleasure
cars and 13l by motor trucks In 9TH
er words, five out OF every nine Pc
destrians injured by motor vehicles
in going across a street are struck in
the middle OF the block. where they
had no right to be with due regard
for their own safety

Former Resident
Completes Invention

The following article taken from

regarding a new invention of import
ance in farm work refers to the in
ventor as o. v. Breese who Is son-in-
law of County Treasurer j. C. Wilson,
and a former resident of Hand
county:
o. V. Breese received word this
week that his patent had been ac-
cepted for his harrow and drag at
tachment for a gang or sulky riding
pillow. This harrow works free from
the plow and automatically remains
in position and swings back when
turning corners, and does not in any
name interfere with the plow. 1t
the moisture and shortens farm
labor. The drag does not have any
side draft, and works from the front
OF the pillow, SO there is a direct front
draft. Mr.. Breese informs us that he
has been at work on the plans for six
or seven years and has now made
arrangements to have the implement
on the market here within a short
time. Announcements will be made
later as to an extensive manufacture
ing of this very useful article, and Mr..
Breese expects to make a nice thing
out of the patent.
