In this connection it may be stated
that the negro operating the truck
was W fined ten dollars in the Police
court recently for speeding, but this
did not prove sufficient lesson.
Most of the automobile accidents
m Alexandria have been due to care
iessness on the part. of boys, white
and colored, who are trusted with the
operation of these modern vehicles.
We realize that labor conditions are
OF such nature that boys are being
called upon to perform services pre-
viously rendered by men, but sure
" automobiles, trucks and motorcycles
should be placed in the hands Of care
full and responsible persons.
South Royal street during the early
morning hours is often the scene OF
reckless driving. It is no uncommon
thing to see auto trucks and auton,o-
biles slide whcn being turned at IN
tersections.
Of course the owners of the vehicles
arc responsible for damages which
nay result from the carelessness o:
their chaufeurs, but this fact affords
out little modification to parents wher
their children are killed or permanent
ly injured.

A few weeks ago we quoted from
highly significant article in the Groes-

perfectly apparent, and must have

Much mas happened since that art

Westphalian Zeitung has shown clear
Il enough recently that it had no hope
of saving anything from the Germaa
wreck. Still more outspoken is the
Kreuz Leitung, Pan-German and
chauvl,.;st, which quite recently was

THE t.tSE OF THE kAISNE

Referring to an earlier peace-fecler
Of Germany's Lloyd George, speaking
in London some time ago, called it "a
dagger wrapped in the Sermon on the
Mount"
In the words of an exchange, This
splendid epigram fits the Macmillan
proposal, and the dagger is still in the
rand that is extended only for an
honorable peace" To get at the root
If all evil, we must insist upon the
prompt amputation of that hand, ~

The poor dupes of the Kaiser have

PALSY the hand that holds "the dagger

every wire calculated to anchor the
Hohenaol!ern dynasty to the totte"-

operated the puppet Macmillan and
r.ade its squeak peace" and it is
rrquestiGnably his hand which moved
the Fathcrland Party to denounce that
leace proposal, as the latest cable
dispatches report they are doing. The
devilish destroyer of the worlds peace
is still playing fast and loose, and he
raust be stopped.
If Deutschland, after all it's suf-
