RECKLESS DRIVER
OF AUTOMOBILE
Court Charges Driver OF Car With
Manslaughter. Evidence
Shows Guilt

In People VS.. Falkovitch, ESQ H. 321,
III n. E. 39S, reported and annotated
in Ann. Cas-. 191SB 1877, the Court sus-
tanned the conviction for manslaugh-
ter of an automobile driver who ran
into and killed child while driving
past a school building at high and
unlaful rate of speed. After uphold
ing the indictment found against the
defendant as sufficiently and definite
ly charging the crime of manslaugh-
ter, the Court said with respect to the
sufficiency of the evidence to warrant
conviction: I'VE think the evidence
clearly shows the guilt of plaintiff in
error. His testimony that he shut off
the power of his car and that his car
simply coasted up to Forty-frst street
from the middle of the block west of
it, which is two hundred and ten feet
wide, is not at all supported by the
evidence. The physical fact that his
car, with the rear wheels locked by
the brakes and not turning, but skid
ding from the moment the boy was
struck, ran for a distance of from
twenty-five to thirty-five feet and over
and upon a curb six inches high, is en-
tirely inconsistent with his contention
and is proof that his car was moving
at very high rate of speed-probably
much greater than twenty miles an
hour-although the pavement that
morning was wet and slippery on ac-
count of rain that had previously
fallen. He admits that he was well
acquainted with all of the surround
ings at that point on the street; knew
of the fact that the school building
was just ahead of him and that the
school was in progress and school
children were on their way to the
building; knew all about the sign
board at Fortieth street; saw the flu
neral procession as he was approach
ing Forty-first street; saw the boy
from the middle of the block west of
that street and until he was struck
by the car, and saw him running
across the intersection towards the
school building. All these facts should
have suggested caution on his part
while moving up to that intersection,
and he should have had his car NOV
ing at such a speed that he could cas-
lily have controlled it. The evidence
demonstrates to moral certainty
that he was driving his car at very
high, reckless and dangerous rate of
speed, in violation of the law, and that
the boys death was occasioned there

mot RELYING UPON
THE SOLDIERS VOTE
Candidates Of Both Parties Say
1t Is Not An Import
ant Factor
PROVISION FOR FAILURE

That the soldiers vote is not a big
factor and will not play an important
part in the election is the decision of
both political parties.
Democratic and Republican candi-
dates for Congress in Maryland are
not relying upon the vote of absent
soldiers and sailors as a factor in
the November election. A bill was
passed by the last General Assembly
giving these absentees the right to
vote. The bill was really unconsti-
tutional. since il provided no safe
guards in marking the ballot in COM
pliance with the state laws. Even
if the law was effective, its provis-
ions could not be enforced because

Judge Moss denied the petition for
a receiver in the case of Benjamin F.
Thomas against Joseph Schultz and
Charles Krause. 1t was asked for in
connection with a farm which the
plaintiff had leased TO the defend
ants for the purpose of raising GER
tain crops. The Court held, that in
the absence of fraud or intentional
neglect, a receivership could not be
granted The reason urged, that the
defendants had put in more crops
than they could work, the Court held
was not sufficient ground for re-
ownership. particularly under present
conditions of labor shortage. 1t was
further pointed out that the defend
ant had in a large measure indicated
the crops TO be planted and the acre
age of each, and the manner in which
they were to be handled.

GOOD HIGHWAYS PAY
WELL AS INVESTMENT
Neglect Of Roads Will Be Found
Prove Expensive To LOCAL.
ties And States
FEDERAL SYSTEM USED

Neglect is most costly in road work.
Small breaks quickly become bad
holes. Detours suffer greatest. They
are usually ordinary country roads
or roads less strongly built than main
highways. Heavy trucks quickly turn
them into series of impossible mud
holes with coming of wet weather
Concrete or brick are most lasting
but the cost makes them prohibitive
in sparsely settled communities.
In many States and counties patrol
systems have been established. Men
and teams are constantly on the high
ways with scarifiers and rollers, and
loads of stone or gravel, dragging in
the ruts. filling up the small chuck
holes The system is expensive, but
in the long run it is the cheapest
On macadam roads repairs are best
made with broken stone bonded by
bituminous material which coats the
fragments and fills the interstices.
Dirt roads are passing over low places
can be made good only by banking up
or by removal of the road to higher
ground.
Cutting a road out of the hillside
will guarantee good basis for high
way which will be quickly paid for
by the lessened cost of maintenance.
Dumping loads of gravel and leav-
ing them for the traffic to wear down
instead of steam rolling the improve
ment is an expensive proposition from
the standpoint of traffic. 1t requires
a $50 per cent greater expenditure
of power to roll down the gravel in
this manner
Eventually parallel systems of
roads between principal centers may
give relief. permitting one at time
to be closed for repair.
The Federal road system is being
rapidly adopted by the States and its
extension and coordination with State
roads systems is necessary TO bring
motor transportation to highest eff
cheney
Commerce follows the good roads,
and as the railroads in the past have
brought prosperity to a community,
so will well-kept highways build up
trade centers now.
