V|6|LANTES REPORT
TRAFFIC OFFENDERS
Have Witnessed l28 Violations
Chiefly Reckless Driving
and Speeding.

The Vigilantes of the Public Safety
Committee, it was announced today, have
reported lbs violations of the traffic and
speed laws in this city up to the present
time. The larger number of violations
was for reckless driving or speeding and
amounted to 2S. The next important
class of violations was the defective lights
and the number of these amounted TO Is.
There were number of cases of driving
on the wrong side of the street, passing
standing strolleys on the wrong side OBJ
structing traffic, not signalling with hand
or horn and passing on the wrong side Of
traffic posts. Numbers of the violations
reported were from the rural sections of
the State, where vigilantes are also on the
alert. One of the most encouraging
features of the Vigilant Committee re-
ports is that TO date only one driver has
been reported the second time. As soon as
violations are reported the secretary of the
Public Safety Committee gets in touch
with the man in whose name the license
of the car stands, and he is asked to CO.
operate in making his community safer
place in which to live by seeing that who
ever drives the automobile obeys the law
and takes the proper precautions.
There are now lS3 members of the Vigi-
lance Committee and some of them are
very active. For example. one has re-
ported Al violations in two months. A
notice sent out recently to the members
of the Public Safety Vigilance Committee
states: while careful observers report
violations for reckless automobile driving,
we know from the reports of our statistics
committee that q great many accidents
are still taking place" Every Vigilance
Committee man and woman has been
asked to increase the effort to detect vio-
lations. K. I. Read, secretary of the
Public Safety Committee, who recently
returned from st. Louis, tells that in that
city they have 800 members on their
Vigilance Committee and at one time they
received $50 reports a week. He stated
that recently a committee man there said
that they would have to visit the auto
mobile agencies and pick up new drivers
rs all the old drivers were obeyIng the law
too closely for them to report.
Members of the Public Safety Commit
tee of Delaware feel that the Vigilance
Committee Is doing good work and that
the great value of the organization Is not
only that it keeps hundreds of cases of
careless driving out of the courts, but
handles hundreds of cases which would
never reach the courts.
