Enforce the Law and save Life.

To the Editor Of The Gate City:
Observers were not surprised that
The Gate City's prediction OF fatal
ty dye 10 reckless automobile driving
came true. Disregard for human life
IN becoming entirely too common.
The intersection IL the only place
where the pedestrian can cross the
street with any guarantee OF safety,
and this protection fs fast being re-
moved by wanton disregard on the
part u GONE automobile drivers.
When the pedestrian steps from the
curb at an intersection 10 take q car
or cross the street he has some feel
ing Of sccurity--and should have.
II was With gHch confidence that
Captain u. p. Taber started for hia
home last Saturday night after haY.
ing attended fheater performance.
He had A right 10 expect protection.
The law promised him such protec-
ton, and breaking the law brought
death To respected citizen. The
death was tragic. 1t was violent and
entirely out OF harmony with the life
of Captain Taber. II Seems that he
should have been permitted to close
the door IN his own home after
gentle and loving goodbye to those
ne loved.
Care1essnesB and crirnfnality were
the causes OF this death. They are the
causes OF most Of the sorrow IN the
world. One OF the early American
Statesmen urged that we should al
warn have a regard for the rights
and opinions Of others. II the auto
driver had had decent regard for
the rights Of others, Captain Taber
would be alive today. Enforce the
law and save life.

My right side would pain me and was so nervous could not hold glass of water. Many times I would have to stop my work and sit down or I would fall on the floor in faint.
