'AUT0|ST SUGGESTS
RAISED CROSSWAYS
Says Slight Elevation Would
Protect Pedestrians by
Stopping Fast Driving.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
I have read with much interest the
editorial contribution to The Star of
Saturday. March 25. under the head
Ing Automobile Accidents Atten-
speed limit is rashly exceeded at
street crossings and the rights of
pedestrians are ignored.
Careful users of automobiles on the
streets OF Washington would agree
with you as to this. 1t has become
volved in the use of automobiles are
becoming SO great that automobile
users will be obliged to acQuiesce in
preventive measures even at some In
convenience to themselves Your
paragraph indicates the special dan
ger from accidents at street crossings,
ana 1t Is only quite recently that a
very serious accident occurred at the
crossing of Q and 10th street north
west, when a number Of people were
seriously injured. including patients
from the Walter Reed Hospital.
Out OF my experience in the daily
driving of a car for many years 1
venture to suggest, as practical
measure for minimizing, If not eradi-
eating accidents. at least at street
crossings. that we revert to the old
fashioned method of raised cause
for the benefit of foot passengers,
such as were common when we were
children.
II on the streets at the crossings the
sidewalks are connected by the erec-
ton OF a slightly raised causeway
running from curb to curb across
each street, it would not only be of
distinct benefit to people walking,
but 1t would be an automatic and alb
so!ute check to the use of unreason-
able speed on the part of automobile
drivers at such crossings.
1t goes without saying that these
causeways should be carefully and
reasonably constructed. No great
elevation would be required, and the
incline on each side should be very
gradual, and they should be suff-
struction to the car and accommodate
the number of people crossing. They
should be constructed of lighter col
ored material than the roadbed so
as to be clearly visible. If SO con-
structed. it is not believed that they
would prove any serious objection
to reasonable and cautious users of
automobiles.
1t is obvious that their presence
would of necessity compel slowing
down at crossings to speed that
would be reasonably safe and thus
surely eliminate chances Of collisions.
Their construction would not require
any extensive change in the surface
Of the street. and they would not need
time, but could be easily tested out
by being put in use at especially dam
gerous crossings. Is it not possible
to have this matter tried out here in
the city of Washington?

Synthetic Air

Climate as a maker of history has
long been familiar idea. Now we
have the new notion of man as a
maker of climate.
At the United States Bureau of
Mines III Pittsburgh the American
Society of Heating and Ventilatine
Engineers has established a labora
tory where, in carefully regulated
air chambers, the effects of VARYING
combinations of atmospheric fac
tors-heat, moisture. motion, cleo
trlcity, etc.-arc being tried out on
human subjects. The director is
Professor r. Paul Anderson, Of the
University of Kentucky, and CO.
operating with him are physicians
of the United States Public Health
Service. At the same time Profess
sor Ellsworth Huntington. of Yale. is
making experiments in factories to
determine the relation of the char
actcr of the air to health and to out
put. This latter undertaking is ar
outgrowth of certain experiments
made for the benefit of silk. II was
found that air that was a good sort
tor keeping silk tibers from stick
ing together was also a good sort
for keeping the silk workers lively:
and this accidental discovery led the
National Research Council to enlist
the services Of Professor Huntinq-
ton NOTED for his studies of the ef-
fects of climate upon ancient and
modern man-ln working out the
formula for an ideal factory air.

to be, it is just as modest on the

1t is an excellent thing for the
women Of this generation and
for the children Of the coming
generation that style happens to
conform with common sense and
the laws Of hygiene. 1t may
be that styles will change and
return to the old sweeping pettcoats
and iron-clad corscts. However, now
hat women have discovered that
they can be comfortable without
feeling immodest they arc likely to

Torrens Title Cross-Currcnts

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The enemies Of the Torrens
system Of land title registration never
sleep. 1t has just been discovered that
an amendment has been included in tho
proposed constitutional amendments
recommended to the Legislature which
appears on its face to be in favor Of
the Torrens system but which is really
against Its best interests
This amendment is known as Section
25 and Is similar to an amendment in
troduced before the last constitutional
convention, which the Torrens Title
League and other friends Of tho Tor
rens system opposed and which was
finally defeated.
The apparent purpose Of this amend
ment Is to befog tho issue and to draw
attention away from tho bill to put the
county back of the assurance fund in
the present law, which has been intro
duced by Assemblyman Palmer as No.
349 and which completes the original

Weary of Buncombc

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Your editorial Equality" was
very much 20 the point. The public is
weary Of buncombe. A pertinent ques-
tion is, How much longer is the bun
combe going to come from the legs-
lators at Albany regarding the solu-
tion of the housing question by So
called rent legislation?
The legislators of New York State
for six years have made the rents of
apartments rise. The building trade
unions, material business combinations
and financial institutions have their
share Of responsibilities in this situs-

If any man outside of an insane asv-
lum can say that the housing solution
is TO be helped or solved by re-enactine
legislation which has tied up and driven
millions Of dollars out Of real estate
channels, interested groups of tenants
would like to know how the continua-
ticn OF the burlesoue is to put these
millions into circulation again.

those of twenty years age. I know
Of nothing prettier than the calf of

knees
Inasmuch as women will dress in
the prevailing style, no matter what
editors or preachers may say to
them, it is q waste of effort to crit
rize their present manner of dress.
it is folly to do so.
" omen who wear short skirts, loose
,orsets, or none at all, and no confn-
