To popularize the slogan. the Goodrich company carried it in all their adyer- tisements, placed it on sign posts ana bill boards and in numerous other ways brought it to the attention of the peo- pie
 The safetyfirst movement gained ground rapidly throughout the country One organization after another took IL up and launched campaigns to make the safety-first principles more widely known. As q result, the number o1 avoidable accidents began to decrease appreciably. in spite of the increased amount. of traffic on the streets
 Today Safety first" is one or the most common expressions in the Eng fish language. > Everyone knows what it means, and the principles it stands for. It has caused people to realize that nine- tenths of all trafflc accl- dents are avoidable. It has taught motorists and pedestrains that by op- serving certain simple rules both VIII be benefited and the death toll from accidents decreased
 To still further stimulate interest III the safety first movement, the Natlonai Traffic Officers association has made arrangements for cooperating m all campaigns to be waged this spring The association will also hold an exhi- bition Of safety devices as one of the features of it's annual convention Tn San Francisco next August

CIRCUS TRAVELLING
 IN TRUCKS LIKES II
 BETTER THAN TRAINS

Trucks versus railroads, trucks win. hands down., is the way Wm~ Toaf., proprietor of Todd's Travelling Tented circus and vaudeville aggregation, puts it, in writing. to W. S. Bouy, distrib- utor of Republic trucks in Raleigh, N. c.
 Mir Food says that motor trucks af ford him a very great advantage in the saving of time and labor. Now, with the use of motor trucks, these items are only about one third of what they used to be when he moved the circus and paraphernaIia by train.
 Instead of loading the tents and other properties on wagons, then transferring them to a train, and at destination unloading from train to wagons and again unloading at the show grounds, all MT. Food does now is load his fleet of Republic motor Trucks, drive to the next exhibition ground, unload without any transfer ing, and prepare for the shows opening
 Unlike most show troupes, Todd's circus has no serious difficulties by way of transportation. Indeed, through the. installation of a fleet or Republic trucks, the circus lays out it's own time tables and is quite independent of rail- roads. It is --not vexed by the usual delays waiting for trans and it's move ments are never impeded by wrecks or other railroad accidents
 Immediately after the show closes the tracks are loaded and a quick start made so that 20 or 30 miles may be covered during the time which is usu- ally spent in waiting by other shows which depend upon railroad trans portation.
 Mir. Todd is most enthusiastic over motor transportation and is convinced that the time and labor saved alone have more than paid for the operation and maintenance of his fleet of trucks. Moreover, his actual cost of trans portation is considerably less by truck than by rail, so that what was for merly paid out of profits for excess transportation costs now are clear profits. Mr. Todd is most enthusiastic in his opinion that when it comes to trucks vs. railroads, trucks win hands down..

MOLASSES NEWEST
 SUBSTITUTE FUEL

Thirsty souls and economists who of all the molasses which formerly marks a writer in the current number of American Aotorist. will be inter ested to learn that automobiles, trucks. and tractors may be operated, not with rum. nor even with molasses. butN with alcohol made from the later. Contin- uing, the writer sets forth:
 American Motorist not long ago called attention to the possibilities of- fered by theruse of alcohol as fuel for internal combustion engines. A few years ago the United States Geological survey, through it's technologicai branch, made a series of elaborate tests of the relative value of gasoline
Arizona republican., 1920-04-25

and alcohol as power producers The most important results of the invesfi- gations are contained in the evidence that well designed internal combus-
 ton motors using alcohol or gasoline will consume about an equal volume of fuel per unit of power. The aver ages of the minimum consumption
 values give a like figure of S-10 of 3 pint per hour per break horsepower from gasoline as we'll as for alcohol In this comparison it is of decided inter est that the therman value of alcohol is only 6-10 that of gasoline-a fact which explains the persistence of the

SAFETY ChMP PA|GN STILL CARRIED ON BY B.F. GOODRICH.

Make the highways of the nation safe.
 From one end Of the country to the other this doctrine will be spread this spring during .Safety-First' cam paigns. Motorists and pedestrians alike will be taught the stern necessity of watching out for the other fellow" and thereby reducing the number of avoidabie accidents.
 In each city where a campaign will be held, police officials will cooperate with civic organizations and the auto mobile club and they will be aided by the field organization of the B. +. tfoodrich Rubber company, the com pany which originated and popuiarized the 'Safety-First" slogan.
 The need for educating the people in ways to prevent accidents was seen by the Goodrich company six years ago. The Safety First" slogan was adopted q s a ch-phrase likely to be remem- bered by anyone who saw or heard it.

more expensive that it is here, the question of finding substitute fuel has recently received renewed atten- ton. committee has been appointed which. after exhaustive tests of the subject, is convinced that alcohol as motor fuel has great possibilities and that the by-products of the sugar in dustry and many other substances yielding sugar, starch or cellulose will be utilized in this fashion.
 According to the British committee appointed to investigate the merits of power alcohol." the fundamental at traction of alcohol lies in the fact that
Arizona republican., 1920-04-25

its chief sources are found in the vege- table world. In consequence the raw materials for the manufacture of power alcohol are. being continuously renewed and are susceptible of great expansion without encroachment on the food supply
 Rather interesting experiments were made with alcohol derived from the flowers of the mahua trees grow ing in the East Indies. It is said that the sun dried flowers of this tree con- tain something like 60 per cent of fer mentable sugar and that they can be collected and delivered to the factory
Arizona republican., 1920-04-25

in the zone of growth at $7.50 per ton. One ton of these leaves produces 90 gallons of alcohol.
 Our late antagonists. the Germans, long before the war. had developed a system of industrial alcohol manufac- ture under which every farmer could produce his own motor fuel. The cir cumstance that our own oil resources are so abundant may delay similar development in the United States. There is no doubt, however. that al cohol for motor fuel purposes looms more important and more promising than ever"

 Heretofore the obstacles in the way of a universal adoption of alcohol as motor fuel lay in the difficulty of find- ing a raw material that could be se- cured sufficiently cheap to render the making of alcohol for fuel uses prof itable.
 And now come prohibition. moias- ses. and alcohol in quantities practf- cally as unlimited as the former SUD- plies of that delectable sdainty of the grog shop-run
