I,sa aoToR TRUCK PROBLEM

A. aeriaent and near-rre' lent IS rvported. in which large motor trucks figure, it hecomes evident that the state hieaway dega. tment has proo- lem to face if drivers of pleasure cars are to have their rights, property, and lives protected while driving along the state highways.
 Within the past six months milis in inc Quinebsug river valley have .dopted the large motor truck as means of transportation of yarns, and other mill supplies, to and from the producing points, which are for the most part, in Massachusetts elties' where the big trucks are owned.
 There is a fleet of from ten Co twelve monster trucks now plying back and forth daily and the bodies of these vehicles are 80 large that they take up practically two-thirds of the roadway.
 With the roads in the present con- dition of snow and ice the drivers ot these trucks make no effort to turn out Owners of touring cars and oth- CT lighter automobiles can only pass by going into the ditch and in so doing there Is the greatest danger Drivers of the heavy trucks are frank Co nd- init that the can not steer their vehi- cles into the gatters with any eer- tainty of getting back into the roaa- way again and therefore take the DO sition that they are entitled to keep to the beaten pathway and that the lighter machines must turn out for them.
 This. the drivers of ordinary cars do not agree to. They feel that they have equal rights with these monster trucks. and that the rules of the road apply as much to the large yehi- eles as to the smaller and that no one has any business to put machine so large on the road that 1t can not be operated in accordance with law and safety.
 There Is also complaint that the drivers of these large trucks. in order to make the round trip in day. are greatly exceeding the speed limit for

A UNIFORMED BEcoAR

The New York GIty maxisirate whe eateneed an ex=soldier Q the work house for three months because he had been using his uniform while SO leltiag aims. was far too leHient, The eeaudrel confessed that he had ob- tanied as much as s40 day. and ever went 30 far as to admit that he had been able to salt" s5 .0O0 iu a bank through his easy money getting plan. h ease like this sentiment should be thrown to the winds. There Is no valid reason why, even though a man has fought for his country. undue lenieaey should be extended. He has prcstituted the use of his uniform 10 enable him to eyade the honorable du ties of high citizenship exhibited by all who were his brothers in arms and by the common people who are con tent to toll to earn their daily bread.
 Many agencies were put in motion that the war veterans might be restor- ed 10 honorable employment; so not one man among them who desired to aisplay a patriot n no less valuable

 The people nmindfli Of the fact that ait eh there were more than three ii51 men in arms few of them retu rci other than bet ter citizens. TAe stigma which the few dishonorable es imposed upon the khaki of the honorable men who now are linking their efforts with those those of all other workers to in crease production in our country When among the twelve there was a Judas il is not to be wondered at that among the millions recruited in the interest of the worlds salvation from militarism. there should be eriminally disposed men whose moral defeetion eventually leads them into the laws clutches.
 Nc man of half heart would hesi- tate to give helping hand to a vet, eran in need. but the veteran who would presume upon such charitable ness x not 6t to wear the uniform of his former comrades, Those whom we have plaee1 in authority over us are begging the men and women of the country to do all they can Co in- crease production. Labor is urgei to eive an honest return for the Ia ~.e wages paid Shirking now Is theft, form of robbery which helps to beg gar starving nations in Europe and becomes a factor in hastening indus trial decay m our own landi for such i aiEit cannot continue without ex- cruising an iasiluously destructive power It leads to the kind of lazi- gess that is exhibiting ieself in a de- mapd for a six-houv day When so- elets ee ins te yield Co such folly the end .s net far eifff.
 Somehow the many veterans. who left behind them their wives and ehil- dren and other kin to fight for the world and returned to labor for their loved ones. assume in cur minds a character nothing short of sacred when compared with that of the mis- creaat who could not even plead that his thieving begTary was born of des- peration to aid some one in need New York Commercial
