DRISCOLL URGES
WHIPPING POST
FOR ROAD HOGS
Safety First Association
Official Approves of
Traffic Court.

Rigid punishment OF trafic viola
tors and severe criticism of Jay
walkers" was urged last night by
8. ]. Driscoll. treasurer of the
Washington Safety First Associa-
bon. in a statement lauding the pro-
posed establishment of a District
traffic court.
After cautioning the persons who
recklessly cross streets, paying no
heed to traffic, Driscon suggests
that the establishment of a whip
ping post for speeders, road hogs"
and other trafic Niolators might be
a means toward the reduction OF
the evil. Driscoll's statement reads
In part:
's'T wish to give my most hearty
approval of the action on the part
OF certain United States Senators
In regard to violators of the traffic
regulations, and to the speed demons
OF the District of Columbia as noted
in your paper of July 12.
- Outsiders Worst Offenders.
The greatest crime on the caIen-
dar today is that of murder, and the
person that deliberately violates the
speed and trafic regulations Is one
that at least attempts that form OF
crime Regulations are made In or
der that we may all enjoy equal
rights in the pursuit of life, liberty
and happiness, and the person that
will deliberately ignore such regu-
Iations is a very poor type Of citi-
zen Unfortunately we have some
a the District, but all are not bona
hde residents. Personally. the most
aagrant offender I have noticed is
the person driving a car that does
not bear a District license.
Il have given the question of
street traffic regulations some little
study and 1 know of no city that has
better laws covering traffic than
Washington Capt Headly. head OF
the trafhc bureau, has country
wide reputation as a traffic expert.
and our police force is decidedly
active in enforcing the law, but
most woefully handicapped in not
having the proper court in which
to prosecute their cases This Is in
all due respect to the present Police
Court whose judges are already
overworked.
Urges Prompt Trials
What is needed is a traffic court
wherein an officer making an arrest
could have his case tried promptly
and where he would not be COM
PEELED to spend the greater part Of
the day awaiting to have his case
called for trial For every arrest
we must insist on personal appear
ance in court l am absolutely op-
posed to forfeiture of fines or COL
lateral 1 would insist that they
tell it to the judge Let each case
be decided by 4 Judge"

Home Economics and its Meaning.
There was time when this course
was known as Domestic Science, mean
ing merely sewing, and cooking, but now
it is not just the process Of using needle
and thread and cooking utensils.
Home Economist has two, main divi
sions, the food and cookery division
and the clothing division. OF course
the foods and cookery means the study
of nutrition value of foods, different
preparations of foods and the putting
together of certain foods to make well
balanced meals and dietaries.
The course in clothing means moi
only garment making, but the study OF
textile fabrics, their adulteration anC
simple tests for the various fabrics. 1I
: addition to this related art is now al
important phase Of the works to teacl
| the girls color harmony.
Mrs. Ellen II. Richards ideas Of
home Economics are: Sfsfs
/. Ideal home life OF today unham
pered by traditions of the past.
2. Utilization of all resources o.
Modern Science to improve home life.
8. Freedom of the home from thu
dominance of mere things. and thei
due subordinatiOn to ideals.}
4. Simplicity of material surround
ing which will most free the spirit fol
the more important and permanent in
terts of the home and society.

Z Chicago, Sept. 16.-Prices on many

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

There is said t. be generally
better feeling all around" said Al,
official of one of the downtown banks
yesterday, but great many of the
closer students of the situation are
wondering IL it amounts to anything
more than a feeling Business can
be best described rs spotty. In several
lines where there was evidence of a
quickening few weeks ago. conditions
have become quiet again"
In another line, a representative OF
one of the larger houses remarked to
this morning that he was filled up on
orders and was not receiving any new
ones to speak of. Until the spread is
still more greatly reduced between the
wholesaler and the retail prices, there
does not seem to be much opportunity
for any extensive revival of business
activity. The recovery must necessarily
be slow because of the times and con-
ditions. and there is little use for any
one deceiving himself to a contrary
belief.
