AUToMoBIEE FATALITIES.

Tn view of the daily reports in the newspapers of the large number cf automobile fatalities, it can hardly be considered surprising when the an- nouncement Is made that there were 54 persons killed in New York city during the month of July and over
 1C00 injured by automobiles. This death list in the largest city of the country for one month in the year represents, if continued at that ratio more than twice the. number of pas sengers who are killed upon the rail- roads throughout the whole country in an entire year.
 The fact of the matter is, in con- nection with the great number of auto fatalities, that there is required much the same sort Of care and knowledge in the opera tion of motor cars and in respect for the regulations which are established, as there is in the running of a locomotive. but that important requirement is lacking. Too Cften is there encountered the disposition to take chances, to speed up machine for show purposes, to entirely ignore the rules Of the road and to disre- gard the rights and safety of other users of the highway. Too little thought is repeatedly, given to the condition of the highway. too little care is taken to see that the driver of car is in full possession of his fac ultfes and too great is the disposition to engage in joy rides and thoughts Of hairratsing trip completely. dis sipate all idea of care and safe driv- ing.
 Thus it Is made apparent by the figures compiled in the metropolis that in spite of all that is being done in the way of safety there is still plenty of opportunity for insisting up on more of it. But it requires action for it will not come by simply speak ing of it. t..

A MARKED CONTRAST.

What a strong contrast there is be- tween the manner in which i've Ital- ian airpianes flew over Vienna and that in which German flying machines havc been, sc,,dding over England and France.
 The object of each visi: was decid- cdfy different It was the purpose of the Italian aiers to carry fnforma- ton 7 10 .he Austr;ans in their capital concerning the success Of the enemy on tbe Isonzo front and this they did by dropping news .tbofnba" upon that city telling os the Italian success. They lad good reason to believe that this tuformntior would not otherwise be secured, but 1t can be appreciated that they might have carried tons of explosives just as easily.
 With the Germans there was not the necessity Of carrying information 10 the enemy non n-combatants, even If they had been favored with a suc- cessful offensive. The war news is not kept from the kopulace there. When Germany sends out it's airplanes they are loaded with bombs that cause destruction or with candy which ha s been poisoned SO that children who eat may die. Although Italy had as good reason as any nation could have for reta!fating for the murderous air assaults which have been committed upon it's defenseless men, women and children, it didn't practice it upon Vienna. Can it be imagined that Germany and Austria would refrain from the great military advantageCO which would have been gained from such savage and brutal conduct?

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Another trolley car wreck has been added to the list that has been grow ing all too rapidly in Connecticut this summer. The death toll St Derby is three Waterbury people and the list of seriously injured leads to fears that this number may bs increased. Unofficial accounts of the cause lay the blame on an alleged defective brake. Once again we wait for the public u, lities commission tc make an :nvestig ltion and give out an ofdcia1 report of the causes with reconrnen- dations as to how a similar accident is to be avided in the future. We re- peat. The commission should give its special . &!tention to Investigating the condition of the folling equipment of trolley lines in this state with special reference to conditions of poor repair that may lead to acc,dents. Cars are continually breaking down and caus- ing delays to traffic. There is grave danger that trolley companies that will so neglect the particular equip ment that furnishes motive power, will also neglect brakes. controllers and

ANOTHER sTRArEerc RETREAT,

Ever since the battle of the Somme Germany has been on the defensive. It has been devoting it's efforts, and they have not been feeble ones. to holding the British and French in check They have been forced to abandon much territory but there has been no running away in the same sense that the Russians have given up Galicia and Bukowina, and now have ned from the Riga section without of fering much of any substantial re- sistance.
 But events have been transpiring 2 during the summer which are like ly to mean that the Germans are get ting ready for another strategic re- treat. When it will take place or how extensive it will be remains to be seen- Aside from the successes which have attended the allied offensive fin Belgium. around Lens, at Virny Ridge and at Verdun, where the rsca pture Of territory by the French has been admitted by the Germans to give them the key to the western front. there is new evidence that it may not be long before another backward move may be started. Preparations to this end are indicated by the advice which has been given to the civil popula ations to move and by the removal of ma chinery from or otherwise despoiling Belgian factories so that they will be of no further use without new equip- ment It is not too much to look up- on these, together with the prepara- tions which are being made by the al- lies for further offens sives as signs which point to the early establish ment of a new line. and particularly so when Austria is making frantic appeals for aid from Germany

-.s CANNING
MEATS.

The National Emergency Food Gar den Commission Is ever on the look out for pointers on food economy and thrift in the home that will be of use
 to the read1rs of The Bulletin, which is cooperating with the Commission.
 Today's bulletin is devoted to the canning of meats, a good supply of which on the pantry shelf is an ac- quisition any housewife ought to be meats las been high for months, it may go yet higher, and It is we'll to be on the watch for anN temporary
 drop and take advantage of it in purchasing a few pounds for canning, says the bulletin. If one can handle a quarter or half a hog, or other animal, t can usually be purchased at wholesale rates. Several families might club together and purchase half an animal or even a whole one. Even though the actual saving in cost is in having supply on hand against the day of need or emergency.

OCEAN FREIGHT RATES.

The demands which have been made for a reduction in the ocean freight rates have fallen upon fertile ground The shortage of vessels and the risks which are assumed have resulted in the raising of freight tolls until they were soaring along with all the other high prices, if in fact they were not taking the lead. Certainly attitudes have been reached which were never attained before, enormous dividends have been paid by steamship lines which have never paid dividends or which were always nominal and. this in spite of the losses which have been sustained and the large war taxes which have had to be paid.
 When the Shipping board therefore announces that it is. going to take charge of this matter. that a general chartering board will be named to approve all charters and that a scale of rates will be put into effect which will result in a 65 to 75 per cent. re- duction from the present tariffs it has demonstrated the justice of the complaints and that henceforth condi- tions will improve.
 Such of course applies only to American ships. but by the authority which is possessed by the board to allow allied or neutral vessels to take on bunker coal or to deny them the privilege and by the efforts which are being made to get all the entente countries to agree upon similar rates a satisfactory adjustment of this mat ter should result. Fair rates must be fixed, and in that connection the con- ditions under which shops are being operated must be considered, but it is time to check the get-rfch quick op- orators in shipping circles as we'll as n other lines of business

CHICAGO's LESSON.

Most any community in the country can appreciate the indignation which Is felt in Chicago at the manner in which Mayor Thompson has been giv- ing that metropolis an unenvia ble reputation. There can be no question out what he outrages the sentiment of he city when he gives protection to those who are engaged in seditious 2ropa ganda under the claim of the light of free speech. The welfare of he nation under existing circum- stances gets no consideration from 1ir11
 It is not therefore surprising that he head of the city government is hanged in eff1gy, that he is offered "a German flag to carry, that he is the ,bjec: of derfsion and even threatened with attack. It is a high handed and Inpatriotic stand which he is taking md one which might be expected to af1 forth the very resentment that it doing.
 Knowing what a reception his ac- ions are receiving, and realizing that le Is showing defiance to the will of he community. as has been plainly expressed by the vote of the city ouncil. it would be supposed that e would hand in his resignation if c found that he could not bring him. elf to meet the city's and the coun- ry's best interests but he is taking ul1 advantage of. his position and ecognizing at the same time that here is no legal way of removing him: .his situation. however, should be, nd doubtless will be-. a lesson to that ity and 1t would appear to be time pr Chicago to take immediate steps amend it's charter in that partic- lar that 1t may be able to handel ach a situation should it ever occur gain.
