SPEEDING ON HIGHWAYS

Under the law, the Utah state road
commission has the power to regulate
traffic over state highways and, awaiting
itself of that authority, the commission
has passed a speed regulation requiring
automobiles to slow down to fifteen mil
es an hour at crossings or in the business
districts of municipal corporations on
state roads.
This is timely action and while it may
not be strictly adherd to drivers of all
ears should know that any violation
thereof is at their own risk, and for such
violation they may suffer damages.
In fact il is very evident that the law is
not strictly adherd to from statements in
the public press. It will be recalled that a
short time ago a local paper published
that an automobile party had driven
from the Hotel Utah to the Thatcher
Bank in this city in two hours and thir-
ty-six minutes.
OF course it was some stunt. but the
cold facts are that it was in violation Of
law, and the party were not only endan-
gering their own lives but the lives of
other people on the highway. Instead of
being candidates for applause THROUGH
the columns of the newspapers for such
driving, they should have been taken to
court and fined the same as other law
breakers are fined.
Not only on the public highways out
side of city limits does the speed bug
thrive, but right here is Logan the cpl
dernic breaks out now and then. Our good
citizenJsrael Jacobsen came nearly being
run over last Saturday by an automobile
that was too speedy as it approached
the intersections. The driver of course
was penitent and very sorry but that did
not make well Mr.. Jacobsen's injured
hip. 1t lis much better to be safe than
sorry.
Driving on the public highway should
be made safe by every driver regarding
the welfare of the other driver by keep
ing within legal and reasonable rate of
speed. Some drivers are so afflicted with
the speed craze that they insist on "step-
ping on it" the moment they strike the
highway. So long as good fortane is with
them they escape injury, but they should
know that they are towing with fate. and
that if continued death will surely follow
in its wake

PROHIBITION AND HUMAN MA

We don't want to talk prohibition.

But we have a lot of fun out of prohi-
bition in this way: We ask our friends
and acquaintance if they believe in pro-
hlbltion. Many of them do, on the basis
that it is good thing for the other fell
low, or for the poor man.

and believes that it was necessary mea

Know whether every Drohibitionist in the
world votes because he thinks the other
fellow is weak, and nobody believes it
vitality ccnserves his own welfare. Or
YOU will wonder whether all men are
liars.
There are lot of things about human
nature to puzzle over. For instance Car
uso maintained that it was the voice and
not the reputation of the singer which
called forth the applause. So in certain
opera where the second tenor sang in the
wings, Caruso also hidden in the wings,
took the same song one night, and the
house sat unmoved. Geraldine Farrar,
unannounced, sang song in the OPEN
ing number of benefit performance.
and the apclause was perfunctory. Later
in the evening singing in her turn on the
bill, she received her usual spontaneous
burst of applause. All of which goes to
prove that little scenery, little setting
of the stage is relished bv the best of us.
However Won will find Carusos of bust
ness who think scenery is unnecessary

But II Germany continues to seek eva

1t may be that some way of delaying

the basic conditions remain unchanged. The
fact is that in waging war Germany did

own industrial life and the possible eco
nomic and political disintegration of the
empire.
In this dilemma she has come to the
United States after appealing TO the British
in the vain hope that we will intervene and
save her both from the necessity to pay
and the danger of French occupation
But up to the present moment the whole
problem of German reparations has had
only one of two solutions: either the ruin
of France or what seems to Germans the
almost certain ruin of Germany Not to be
paid, for France, means national collapse.
To pay means for Germany putting her
economic future in pawn. The world has
been asked, is now asked again, to decide
between France and Germany. To inter
pose on behalf of Germany means to seal
the fate of France, for, as | have pointed
out, unless France gets the maximum sum
now fixed as German obligation she is
financially ruined.

closing up the German dispute and in re-
storing the German market for their own
trade. But both the United States and Great
Britain hold France to pay very large war
loans and they cannot successfully under
take TO persuade France to reduce her bill
against Germany while insisting that she
pay them every centime which she has bor-
rowed from them.
In the last analysis. France is not going
TO make concessions which will materially
reduce her own reparations claims while the
sole or the major benefit will fall to the
British and American nations and the
whole burden will fall upon her own treas
ury. But if France sets out to collect her
bill by employing her armies, as she can, the
process will work very great hardship both
to the United States and to Great Britain.
If the whole question were sent to another
international conference no useful result
would be attained unless the United States
and Great Britain were prepared to forego
some of their claims against France to bal
ance French reductions of claims against
Germany. Nor would anything be accom-
plished that way in restoring order perma-
nenty and avoiding new crises, unless the
british and the American governments
agreed to assist France In making Germany
pay the reduced sum.
