THREE FIELDS
FOR MOTOR BUS
Federal Company Expert
menting With New Types to
Meet Demand

To meet the growing demand for
motor busses the Federal Motor
Truck company of Detroit are exl
perimenting with three new types of
buses, mounted on various chassis
These buses ara being designed to
meet the need for school children's
II transportation, city and interurban
travel
F. l.. Pierce, general sales manager.
asserts that the state of California
leads the country in the number Of
buses now in operation. In Los An
geles alone, he says, a bus station
has been established where more
than 500 buses leave from every "a
hours New York state Is second in
the list, he says, with more Man 400
regularly organized bus companies,
serving more than 400 cities, with
capitalization of 100000. In New
York city alone, ii is said, the Fifth
Avenue Coach company carried more
than 100000 passengers last year.
1t is the contention of the Federal
executives that there are three fflds
for the motor bus. First, the trans
portation of school children from
their homes to the schools, especially
in the rural sections of the country
Second, city transportation, where
thousands OF workers can be carried
to and from their work, and third,
inter city transportation. Under this
classification the company sees an
immense future for the bus business
as there are many communities
throughout the country which today
are not served with any mode of
conveyance, beyond the automobile or
the horse.
Probably the greatest bus business
in 1923, it is claimed, will develop in
the school field.
che Federal is sold in Birmingha m

TEMPTING TRAFFIC
INFRACTIONS UNFAIR

Cat and Mouse tactics on the part
Of officers of the law in dealing
with the transient motorist--almost
tempting the unwary into minor
traffic violations which will bring
in fines--are as ineffective as they
are unfair.
That this condition exists In all
too many communities is well known
by motorists. Phases of unfair treat
ment of tho motorists have been dis
cussed by this paper in cooperation
with Topic of the Day" films In
dts noteworthy "Fairplay on the
Highway" campaign. But the issue
discussed today is perhaps the most
insistently in need of remedying.
When officers of the law, not in uni
form, practically trap motorists 1t
Is high time that the matter be
brought to public notice by this
Topic OF the Day" films message:
1T is wrong for local canstables
not in uniform to drive about the
highways provoking transient motor
lists into infraction of minor loca.
ordinances so they can collect fines.
1t is wrong to set speed traps or
violations.
The foremost duty of the officer
should be the prevention Of and not
the punishment for infractions.
Communities sponsoring or tolerat-
ing such methods do so to their
own detriment." -.Topics of the
Day" films.
That such provincial methods of
handling motor traffic exists is al
most unbelievable. But some con-
stables are waxing fat on fines from
their trapping of transient motorists.
The attitude Of the rural consta bic
toward the visiting motorists is Illus
trated by an anecodte Aesop Jr..
tells of an over jealous, or shall
we say. a pecunious and prejudiced
would-be officer Of the law.
A motorist was driving with his
family through some Of the most
picturesque rural districts one could
wish to visit To thoroughly enjoy
the scenery he drove at fairly
low rate of spesd. In fact. he was

NOT ALWAYS THE
FAULT Of DRIVER

The public. as a whole. is toe
cident in which an automobile fig
ures on the driver of the automo-
bile" said M. o. Eldrldge, executive
chairman of the American Automo
goes up. as rule, when such an
accident occurs, is that the driver of
the car was at fault, when as a mat
ter of fact, in large majority OF
cases, the person injured was to
blame.
Il have before me-" continued Mr..
Eldridge, "a chart containing a sum
mary of traffic accidents in New
York city, with the fault or inca
pacity of the proper party listed, and
while perhaps the cause of so per
cent of the accidents Is listed as UNI
known, the blame in the cases where
the fault cf the accident has been
determined is overwhelmingly placed
on the persons injured.
Over a certain period OF time in
which 1927 accidents, Involving pri-
vate automG biles, occurred, the po-
lice department of New York city
found by thorough investigation that
in $50 cases the driver of the car
was te blame; In 3,16S cases the per-
son injured was to blame; and in
$3.50 cases the cause of the accident
was unknown. With the heavy pre-
ponderance of blame placed on the
person injured in the known causes
OF accidents, it is but fair to pre-
sumo that the injured person was to
blame in more than so per cent of
the remaining 1853 cases, basing this
on the most conservative estimates
During the same period of time in
which 1909 accidents. involving
taxicabs. occurred. the cause for 81
such cases was traced to the driver
while 4S7 cases were blamed on the
person injured and the cause of ia
accidents remained unknown
These figures serve to emphasize"
Mr.. Fldridge continued, the eonten-
tion OF the A. A. a. that nc traffic
regulation is complete until 1t pro-
vides penalty for jaywalking. The
Jay walker, in my opinion, is the
most serious menace to traffic in the
United States today.
The automobile has always been
a subject of class legislation. 1t is
q shining target for every legislator
pays more tax than any property of
similar value in the world and is sub
Ject to more regulations than any
other means of conveyance.
The American Automobile asso-
citation stands for obedience to the
law and for observance of all traf-
fic regulations but we feel that il
motorist is to be fined for dis
obedience of traffic signal. then the
pedestrian should be fined for jay
walking across the street. putting
hlmself, as we'll as every not.rist in
that immediate vicinity in danger.
The automobile has done more to
enhance mans value to his commun-
ity than any other one invention and
we respectfully maintain on behalf
OF the motorist that the automobile
driver is entitled to much more con-
sideration than he now receives

WINDING OUR OWN BUSINESS ONLY

American participation in the investigation of conditions in Asia Minor does not constitute a deviation from our policy of avoiding for eign entangements.
 Grasping eagerly at every incident which can be distorted into an indication of an in- tention on the part of the Harding Admini- stration to vary from it's determination not to interfere with purely European affairs, a writer for prominent Democratic paper finds a manifestation of such a tendency in the de- cison of the Department of State to cooperate with Great Britain in Investigating the situa- ton in Asia Minor. This, says the Demo- cratic writer arouses the deepest. interest in Paris. The question is asked, Does it mean the reentrance of the United States into Flu ropean political affairs?'
 This ardent advocate of the League of Nations should not deceive himself Partlcl- patton in study of Armenian conditions does not indicate reentrance, or any change what ever from the traditional American policy. The United States has never been an isolated nation It has never hesitated to participate in affairs in either Europe or Asia or Africa where the United States has any interest whatever. 42r 2%-2r %E ?, B ssas.--- In the early days our government, when all the leading nations of Europe were paying tribute to the pirates of Tripol, the United States sent gunboats to the Northern coast of Africa.
 During Roosevelt's Administration, when bandit in Morocco had kidnapped an Am erican citizen, President Roosevelt sent the demand for 'Perdcardis alive or Razzuh dead' He stood ready to send fleet or an army to enforce the demand.
 Without any hesitation whatever the United States sent it's troops into China to particl- pate along with other civilized nations, in restoring order and protecting American rights. We engaged in the war in Europe not as an interference in European affairs but as protection of our own interests.
 In Asia Minor today American citizens are being subjected to the violence and indignities perpetrated by the unspeakable Turk and it is for that reason that the. United States joins Great Britain in conducting an investi- gation in order to learn the exact facts and
