THE MENACE ON PUBLIC ROADS

The fatal accident on the Parole
Road last night simply empha-
sizes a condition that has been
going from bad 10 worse along
that very road. and also on many
other main thoroughfares OF
travel in this section. Whatever
NAV be the final determination in
Court as to the immediate cause
of this latest tragedy, there is
hardly any room for doubt that
reckless driving along this boule-
ward has gotten to be a vicious
habit with many drivers. This
seems to have been especially APP
parent during the present sum
mer months, when transportation
OF persons by the truck load got
to be favorite. way OF getting to
and from picnics, camp meetings
and other gatherings held at
night, and often lasting until the
early hours of the morning,
Reliable reports are in hand TO
show that on the very night in
question there were no less than
four trucks operating all evening
TO and from one affair of this
kind, besides which there were
countless other trucks and tour
ing cars passing over the same
route. Speed and recklessness
seemed to be the order OF the eve
ming. as on many other occasions
in the recent past. Scores of per
sons were being transported.
whose safety depended absolute
lv on the care of the several driv-
ers. That human lives were. in
constant danger is demonstrated
by what actually happened. !.
This boulevard is shown to
have become a. positive menace to
persons travelling along IT after
nightfall. and now is the time for
the authorities of the county and
State to concentrate in an effort
to remedy the situation. The les
sons of "No-Accident Week"
(July 1.-2i of this year, could
not be better applied than right
here in this section. nor could the
State Police find more useful
field for their activities. One
strong point about the "No-Acci-
dent Week" campaign was that it
went straight to the root of the
evil in seeking to inculcate a right
spirit in the users of the high
ways and make them want to be
careful. rather than become SO by
way of submission TO police en-
forcement. This lesson. however.
either did not reach a certain class
of drivers or has been wilfully
disregarded by them. and this is
the very class that will have to
be dealt with by drastic correc-
tive action. There seems to be an
uncomfortable impulse on the
part of these irresponsible per-
sons to step on the gas" or to
open her up and let her gof'
every time there is sufficient good
road on which to gratify- their
speed mania. The fact that the
lives OF others. as we'll as their
own, are thus made to hang in the
balance. apparently makes no diff
ference TO them. so that now the
obligation has become all the.
more urgent upon the police au-
thorities to enforce the law rig-'l
orously against them.

MONTREAL. Aug. ?. The United States has more or less closed ihe door to European emigrants," said Colonel J. S. Dennis. of the Canadian Pacific Railway and recognizel au- thority on immigration and coloniza- ton. What will the effect be on Canada?
 Canada today in much the same position that the United States was in at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Its population at the com mencement of the twentieth century was much the same as that of the United States at the beginning of the nineteenth. Its great farm areas need settlers to grow food to feed it's grow ing cities and to provide traffic for the great railways.
 Never was Canada in such posi- tion to choose the best kind of citizen ry from troubled Northern Europe Undoubtedly much of the immigra- ton that was headed to the United States will be dirveted to Canada--a type of immigrant that has rarely been available to 1t before.
 To-day Canada can get the pick of Europe-the people who wouldn't dream of coming if the world were in a settled state. They are the kind it can choose carefully and place on it's empty farm lands with a maximum of confidence that they will make good

RUSS-ITALLAN TRADE TREATY
 IS UNDER WAY
(By International News service)

(By International News Service)
 ROME. Aug. 2.-Italian and Rus. sian economists are at present pre- pairing a commercial treaty between the two countries on similar lines to that signed by England and Rus s!a. The head of the Russian eco homie mission in Italy is NJ. Vorov. sky. The Italian government is rep resented on the Italian mission. and Count Sforza, Italian foreign minis ter, has had many interviews with the Russian envoy. Commercial re- tions between the two countries were re-established long ago and goods have already been exchanged. The aim of the Russian mission is to get Italian capital interested in Rus sia. Italy would also be asked to supply technical personnel foremen and engineers. who would direct the work of Russian workmen. In exchange for this Italy would receive concessions on certain factories and land in Russia, as well as naptha, benzol and coal from the Donetz mining district. Forests along the black sea would also be open to ex- ploitation by Italy.
 Russia's greatest need is transpor- tation and here Italy according to NJ. Vorovsky could be of little use to Russia. She has no locomotives or railroad materials to export. How ever, arrangements would be made whereby Italy could supply automo- piles and auto trucks. as well as barges and ships. The latter could be used on Russian canals and riv- CTS, which, the Bolsheviks claim. could be transformer so as to ease communications between the Baltic and Black sea. Italy would also be offered the exploitation of certain mines, although some of these have been idle for more than three years.
 The Russian envoy states that Italy is anxious that the treaty be signed as soon as possible and that he feels sure Italy will rapidly of ficially recognize the Soviet gov ernment of Russia
