MUST NOT PERMIT
CHILDREN TO DRIVE
Tragic Results Certain When This
Is Allowed, Especially
in the City.

Q. H. Larson Of the Motor Club calls
attention TO the fact that in seashore
and mountain resorts all over the United
States children OF fifteen or sixteen are
being permitted TO drive automobiles un-
molested. Mr.. Larson points out that
the danger Of accident in these places
may not be great. but that the practice
generally leads 20 serious accidents
when followed in the city.
Mere youths who believe that they
understand all that there Is to know
about q car, because of their experience
in the country" Mr.. Larson says, at
tempt to drive IN New Yorlk's crowded
streets and tragic results are bound to
occur.
These children and their parents do
not realize that a knowledge Of the me-
chanical features OF an automobile and
even a complete understanding OF how
to repair breaks do not copstitute a
driver.
''it has been established before that
the operation Of a car calls for muscle,
Judgment, nerve and experience. Proper
judgment, which Is the crowning attri-
butte of the man at the wheel in a city
such as New York, comes. only with age.
Running q machine In q quiet village Is
quite a different matter from running
one on Broadway or Fifth Avenue,
where the brains must be quick and the
hand steady.
What we need particularly is a
safety Tirst' week, in which motorists
over admonitionS and advice and would
have their brakes and clutches adjusted
and would see that their fellow citizens
were protected "

Perth Amboy, either via Staten Is

and Railway. II the latter route is
desired, cross the 42d Street ferry to

County Boulevard and Plank Road to
Newark. Both Frelinghuysen Ave-

good condition and can be followed to
Elizabeth. From Elizabeth, follow
Railway and St Georges Avenue
through Railway and Woodbridge to
Perth Amboy. The majority of New

Staten Island route. From the Bat
terry, take the Municipal Ferry to st.
George and follow Bay Street to the
Marine Hospital, where a right turn
Is made into Vanderbilt Avenue, be-
coming Amboy Road. From there
on, continue through New Dorp and

ferry is crossed into Perth Amboy.

From South Amboy there is mostly

keyport there are three ways of
reaching the coast. A great many
motorists prefer going over the At

somewhat longer than the other
routes, 1t offers a panorama Of beau

THE POLISH VICTORY

News of the victory, of the Polish forces over the belshevik army of Russia attracts attention at this time because of the fact that it has been apparent that the Poles numbered much smaller army than the reds and because of the efforts that have been made in behalf of peace between Po- land and soviet Russia.
 Without a question the success of the Poles in capturing i important center, including a railroad which cuts off supplies from Moscow and which puts the belshevfk forces in as serious plight as they had pre- viously put General Denikine, is bound to be highly encouraging to the Poles. Whether the reds can bring up sufficient achievements to overcome the temporary position of the Poles remains to be seen, but if the latter can maintain their po- sition, and have actually accomplish ed what they indicate they have, they have improved their position ma terially and are better prepared to insist upon the stand which will be taken when and if serious peace ne Sotiations are attempted.
 It is significant that the claim should be made at this time that so- viet Russia has notified the allies that it is ready to negotiate for peace with Poland immediately. and that it is held by the Polish press that the helsheviki are not sincere in un- dertaking such dealings as is to be noted by the claim that the clash is the reply to perfidieus bolsheyik policy of begging fer peace while bringing up forces fer an attack. If the Poles are able to continue ts held the upper hand in the field even as they have started out there can be no question but what they will be able to exact whatever term. they desire from the belsheyiki hut following this clash it will remain tt
 be seen what the military attitude
 of the soviet government is going t, l be

HOUSE SHORTAGE AND RENTS

z Rent profiteering is subject that has received and is still getting se- rious attention in many communities. It isn't so much a refusal to pay any advance as it is a determination that the unrea sonable shall not be exacted just because there is an opportunity for insisting upon it whether such is justified OF not. It is all the out come of the lack of rents and an in creased demands for housing accom- uledations. It is case, in not few Instances, of forcing out present ten ants or making them pay what would Sc required of the highest bidder.
 Jersey City has gone through 8 trying experience where 5000 ten aRts refused to meet the increases demanded. They did it on the re- sommendation of the authorities and ths director of revenue and finance of the city got busy and an amicable adjustment was reached in most of the cases. Less than 50 of the cases got into court, but it is interesting to note in this connection that greater fnorts are to be made to provide more homes in that and other New Jersey cities.
 Bills are being prepared for action by the legislature which would ex- empt all buildings erected for dwell ing purposes during the next two years from taxation, and that would permit cities for the next three years to buy land and build dwellings thereon. Such bill will carry refer endum clauses but it is evident that the need for housing facilities are such that increased inducements must be offered and new methods adopted for the meeting of the sit uation.
 The demand for new houses is con- fined to no one locality but it is plainly evident that unless some move is made and the needed facili- ties provided there is bound to be opportunities furnished for the rent pFeateers while the very shortage is bound to force those who can never be classed as profiteers to get what ever their property will bring just because the shortage exists and in sufficient steps are being taken tc meet it.

that good management has protected the operation of the concern by withholding certain profits instead of disbursing them in the. shape if cash dividends immediately they were earned, They have thus been putting earnings back into the property and to add to production and naturally make it more valuable. It has been the property of the stockholders all the time and not newly acquired just because it is issued in the form set stock dividends.
 Apparently the intention of these who put into operation the stock div idend provision of the tax law were endeavoring to reach those who fl was thought would attempt to con eeal income through such method but it was placing a penalty on conservative business methods and by the courts decision cannot be law fully done.

Stories That Recall Others.
He Got Results

Charles on his fifth birthday had received an auto that started with a crank much after the fashion of his fathers. But crank as hard and as fast as he could, Charles failed to get an explosion.
 So Charles tried cranking the pi- ano, the chairs, the table and other articles of furniture. He was tir- ing of, this when the cat walked ma jestically into the room, and of course Charles saw an opportunity before him and he grasped it. A few cranks of the tail of the cat gave signs of results with "spitz, spitz, meow"
 Then Charles lit up with glee and exclaimed "Oh, look, papa, I got an explosion"
