automobile accidents grow IN num-
Der. In some cases it is carelessness
and in some cases inexperience on
the part of the driver. Whatever the
cause may be, however, the grand
total of deaths during the season
from automobile accidents makes a
terrible showing. 1t is probable that
it will always be thus. A percentage
of people will exceed all reasonable
with the power to run at a high rate
of speed. There will also be per-
centage of drivers who, no matter
how much experience they may have,
will never make safe drivers. The
combination of speed and inefficiency
will continue to take its toll.

Once again the American people are
showing their greatness of heart by
contributing to the relief of the suff-
erers in the Near EaSt-the victims of
greed and hate. The past few years
have brought people to a realization
of the fact that no great number of
people, in any part of the world, can
suffer, without the responsibility fall
ing upon those who have the ability
to give aid.

Idaho got a pretty early start in
the campaign, giving plenty of time

in private life are above reproach,
will resort to any means to be elected |

Politicians need not worry over
what the woman's party is going to

who will count on election day.-To-
