AuTo MEMAcE GROWING.

n CCORDING to statistics complied by the Cen
sus Bureau and given out at Washington yester-
day. there were 3.8O8 fatalities due TO automobile
accidents during the past year. This puts the auto
mobile way ahead of mining killer and second
only to the railroads. In country where the auto
is as generally used as this The total deaths not
very large but the rate has been steadily going up
and that ought to be investigated 1t was deaths
per 100000 of the population in 1915 and for 1912
it was AL. That increase indicates that something
is radically wong and the chances that lies in
the failure Of the authorities to take driving licenses
promptly and permanently away from reckless drivers
If the reckless driver menace to no one but
himself he would be bad enough from the standpoint OF
national economy, but he is also menace to the
careful driver, and if study were made Of the re-
ports upon which the statistics given out yesterday
are based it probably would develop that surprisingly
lar number of deaths were those of persons who
were injured in wrecks which the careIessness of
someone else caused.
All over the country an effort should be made TO
reduce the automobile accident death rate. The con-
ventional safety first type will not do in this
and there is not much point in trying to make low
speed limit for motor driven vehicles A large part
of their usefulness comes from the speed with which
they bridge distance A traffic law enforcement
drive is nearer the need For instance, to give this
suggestion local application, Marion county should put
traffic Officers on the roads Of the county to arrest
promptly all drivers who do not obey the road laws.
and both the city and county authorities should make it
point to see that the really reckless and irresponsible
driver is deprived of his license to drive.

they will withdraw financial and moral support

Allies have got around to the point where they
have thrown sentiment to the winds and are looking
after themselves They will do precisely what they
conceive to be in their own best interests about the
Greek situation. The only uncertainty about the sit
uation is that they may find it necessary to do even
moro than they threatened to do. In that event
