Maj. Pullman Explains Plan.

This will be the most comprehen.
sive move in the safety-first campaign
ever undertaken" said Maj. Pullman
last night. 1T will bring the mes
sage to the very Temptations OF our
population. Police impress pedestrians
with the Importance of being careful
and also with the necessity for being
on the constant lookout for reckIess
drivers of vehicles.
One of the greatest dangers tc
children on the streets is noted in-the
practices of children skating on the
wrong side of the street and riding In
small wagons on the coasting boards
on the wrong side.
Police are working every way DOS
sible to break up reckless driving OF
automobiles and other vehicles, and i,
is believed that IL the cooperation OF
pedestrians, particularly children, is
gained accidents will be greatly re-
duced.
Accidents increase greatly in sum-
mer as the children leave schools and
go on vacation. In many communities
the only place children have to play is
in the street, where there is heavy We
hicular traffic, and each year mum
Der are killed and MANNED.

by Mai. Pullman and Superintendent

Mai. Pullman believes that through

Importance of avoiding accidents.
Bicycle and traffic officers have found
that one of the principal causes of
