Captain White remarked. Mr.. Chair
man. The Governor can inform the
member that the Government has made
every effort to !lend every assistance to
help the post Offices, but it is contrary
to the law of the United States and
aboard ships to use the men such as you
mention at the post Offices. You no
doubt are aware that the post office bill
has just passed Congress, it is therefore
possible that the protest made by the
people are receiving consideration. 1T
is very hard for the people in Washington
to locate conditions down here and that is
why the Governor would like to have a
memorial from the people here to help.

somewhat surprised on Tuesday on
receiving communications for the
Maine Automobile Association re-
ouesting them to strictly enforce the
several laws regarding the mirror.
reckless driving, lights on all vehicles
and other automobile laws. Why
Well simply because they have moth
ing to do with the enforcement of
these laws--no more than the Auto
mobile Association. Whatever re-
uuirement for the enforcement of
these laws exists puts that duty upon
the attorney generals department.
Hence the surprise OF the above
mentioned gentlemen at the letters.
The communication us sent out by
the Automobile Association was as
follows:
A definite stand for better law en-
forcement has been taken by the

result of a meeting recently held by
its officers and directors at Augusta

The city of Waterville offers a po-
tent example of the results of child
welfare work. Last year there was
an infant death rate of 622 per thou

1898 of the preceding year In this
city most progressive child welfare
program was carried out under the

particularly efficient child welfare
work through it's baby hygiene and

In this city reduction in the infant
death rate TO $50 in comparison with
the s3.1 figures of the preceding YEAR
Is to be noted
The highest infant death rates in
Maine cities were found last wear in
Saco, with 11s.s; Calais. 1874. and

Benjamin +. Cleaves, Chairman oil
the Public Utilities Commission
Secretary Ball was requested to more
strictly enforce the mirror reckless
, driving. lights on all vehicles and
other automobile laws, which como
under the jurisdiction of his depart
ment.
| 1t is the sense of the directors y
, declares the statement, that these
! laws at the present time are receiv-
| ing very lax enforcement and tina,
great numbers of motor trucks are
being operated without mirrors to
the serious hindrance of traffic on
our highways. 1t is also declared
that almost no regard is being paid
to the law requiring all vehicles
other than automobiles. to carry
! lights. Because of this fact collisions
between horse-drawn and motor
/ vehicles are occurring, and hundreds
of narrow escapes from collisions are
| being avoided only by the vigilance
| of their drivers. The fact that horse
drawn vehicles are not complying
with this law is very trying on the
| nerves of drivers of motor vehicles,
especially on sharp curves, where
| the headlights fail to reveal the
| team around the bend.
ut is also the sense of the directors
that there is much reckless driving
upon the highways of the State, and
that very little is being done to stop
it. 1t is believed that this can be re-
duced by taking away the licenses OF
the offenders. Many people think
| very little of being summoned into
court and made to pay fine for
| reckless driving, but if they are de-
MED the. use of the highways by
| taking away their drivers licenses
| ii is very different thing. There
fore the knowledge that reckless
| driving will bring such a penalty
down upon their heads. is far more
effective than the payment of a few
dollars in court, or even short SEN
tcnce in Jail.
