AND THE DOLLAR CONTINUES TO
SHRINK,

More than 80 per cent OF the young
men in the United States are ill.,
Some cases have developed into or
ganic trouble beyond relief. Others
are functionary, is the statement
made few days ago by renowned
doctor. The doctor points out that
the disease with which a large per
centage Of the men are infected is
contagious.
He believes that high prices and
the knowledge that the United States
produced tWentynine more milliona-
Tres during the world war period and
thousands of men became indepen-
IDENTITY rich developed the germ Of
this disease which has become more
yirulent as it has passed from one
system to another
The doctor holds degree OF doctor

thority in questions concerning Geo
nomic problems.
The disease is known as Get rich

From his personal experience and
observations he has dcduced that the
disease is very easily contracted but
that a cure is extremely difficult.

But 1t is not only tie young man of

High prices and the belief that every

has brought about a situation where
the rule of Caveat Emptor seems to be

R. R. CROSSING TIE-UPS
ANNOYING TO MOTORISTS
D. C. Autoists Encounter Frequent
Waits While Passing Through
Ridgeville.

District motorists who prefer going

plain about the long tie-up that often
confronts them at the railroad crossing
just the other side of Ridgeville. Freight
trains, it is said, block the road at the
crossing there anywhere from thirty
minutes to an hour.
Last Sunday afternoon a Washington
automoblist reports fully thrifty autos
we're held up on both sides of the cross
ing, waiting for q long freight train to
move. which failed to do so for nearly
three quarters of an hour. In the opn-
ion expressed by several of the motor
lists, the officials of the railroad should
be notified to see that these long line
of cars stop-a a different place to rest
or procure water for the engine. ''If
this cannot be DONE declared one be-
lated driver, "the state highway Off
cials of Maryland should erect bridge
across this crossing and thus end the

has recently been tarred. which is more

ADVOCATES better
USE OF AUTO HORNS
Purpose of Signals to Warn
and Not to Frighten,
Says Motorist.

| Believing that an automobile horr
should be so used as to warn and mo-
to frighten or intimidate pedestrians
NJ. r. Weller of New Rochelle, N. Y
| has written to the New York Tribune
| advocating that motorists, learn, frs,
of all. how to run their horns. Pc.
culiarly enough Mr. Weller Is a motoris,
and not pedestrian.
| His letter follows:
Nobody likes motor horns-hooters
the English call them. But until
the time a practicable device for
picking up jaywalking pedestrians
and softly depositing them upon the
sidewalk is to be had, some audible
signal is necessary
In making this positive statement
/ am aware that many will disagree
with me. You'll find that they are all
of the pedestrian persuasion. 1t make es
deal of difference whether you are
in front of the radiator or behind the
wheel when it comes to thinking up
on motoring problems.

is necessary. But it need not be a

eral running of a car.

lane.
There's always a car round the

one firm article of belief of the intel
car speed is held in check and if the
hypothetical car becomes an actual
ity he is ready for it, and if it hap
pens not to be there, so much the
better.
For such situations, and for pedes-
trians, teams or cars. at distance in
the country, longer touch on the
horn button causes the horn motor to
revolve faster, and a steady, fairly
loud note results
IF the horn button is held in con-
tact longer-for a half second or So
as 1 have mine adjusted-the motor in
the horn attains full speed and a
piercing shrek is given out. This for
real emergencies. 1t is rarely neces-
sary.
II know this isn't solution of the
problem. 1t isn't going to please the
pedestrian. You can't please him
I've been one myself and I know. But
it does modify in some degree the of
fense which motorists are continually
giving those who walk. We more for
tunate, for the moment, will do well
to exercise special care not to offend
the man on foot. If he gets car Tor
himself and he has learned bad motor
manners from having been imposed
upon afoot, there's one more incon-
siderate driver added to the already
too long list-and an inconsiderate
driver is always dangerous one.
"And if he doesn't get a car for
himself-or till he gets one--he writes
letters to the newspapers to our dis
credit and advocating our embarrass-
ment."

ELIMINATION OF GLASS
FROM STREETS URGED
N. D. Parham Cites Maryland Law
Which Requires Removal of
Broken Bits.

That some action should be taken by
the police department toward the elimi-
nation of glass in the street for the pro-
lection of motorists is the belief of
n. d. Parham. who has written the fol-
lowing letter to The Star:
THE Maryland motor vehicle law
which became effective June l, 1920.
contains a provision requiring a person
to remove glass which has been dropped
on the highway either as a result of ac-
cideat or from vehicle If such a regu-
lation were in force in the District of
Columbia it would be of great benefit to
motorists. Hardly a day passes that
glass is not strewn over sections of our
city streets and is the source of much
tire trouble. the particle of glass becom-
ing imbedded in the rubber, finally
working it's way through the fabric. and
a blowout is the result. If there is no
such regulation as that contained in the
Maryland law, the Commissioners should
see to it that one is formulated for the
District of Columbia. If there is such a
regulation now it certainly should be en-
forced"
