Safety Institute
OF America to Meet

New York, Sept. 1.-THE teaching
of the principles of safety in the
schools; training schools for motor
vehicle drivers in each borough where
the mechanics of safe driving will be
taught by scientific experts, and a
statistical study of why, when, and
where accidents occur, these are three
Of the means which will be adopted
by the New York Committee of the
Public Safety Institute which met to-
day in an attempt to lower the death
ratio from accidents.
Laurence Vail Coleman, director of
the Safety Institute, outlined the
plans for Safety Week in New York
which, according to Mr.. Coleman, will
be a week Of spectacular introduce
ton to be followed by year of
painstaking research and education"
In connection with the large num-
Der of deaths resulting annually from
industrial dangers. Mr.. Coleman said:
In every borough there will be es-
tablished safety schools for the fore
men of small plants. An establish
ment in which only a few dozen men
are employed cannot cope with its
accident problem because it cannot
afford to carry, as overhead. the sys-
tenn which has proved so valuable
to large plants. The small employer
must have recourse to cooperative
activity which might be termed
public safety in industry"
AS part of the campaign to school
the public, from school children up,
to the caution and caresthat is neces-
sary to lower the number of acct
dents, the American Museum Of Safe
ty. closed during war time, will be
re-opened. and will serve as base
line for the whole campaign.

examiners and were passed one by
one through closed booth where in
spectors asked them how much mon
sy they had. In some cases they
made personal search of the passen-
gers. Passengers then opened their
checked luggage which was all I'M
loaded in the station. They were
then passed through another control
to make sure that their hand luggage
all bore inspectors stamps and wer.
permitted to enter a crowded waiting
room where there were not seats
enough for one-t tenth of the travellers.
After a delay of nearly two hours,
and lengthy discussions with women
who were charged with having pur-
CHASED new wearing apparel m Ger
many. all the passengers for the
Dutch train were admitted into the
sitting waiting room. The doors
were then thrown open and the pas
sengers allowed to re-enter the train.
Fifteen minutes away, at this place,
the performance was much the same.
Again the luggage and passengers
were unloaded and queues moved
slowly through the customs station.
Dutch passport officials examine PAS
sengers' papers on the trains and
save much time in that way. But
it took an hour to get through the
luggage.
Three hours in all elapsed between
the stop at Bentheim and the re-
sumption of the trip. and most OF
the passengers stood all that time.
to he chiefly for tobacco or cigarettes.
At least that was what the inspectors
asked about particularly. The lug
gage Of men apparently yielded little
contraband and was searched far less
diligently than that of the women.
All gowns, coats, evening wraps
and other wearing apparel which
looked new was taken out of trunks
and bags and submitted to special in
spectors who questioned the owners
minutely about their purchases. In
many cases duty was charged when
the owners could not establish that
their clothing was purchased outside
of Germany.
American tourists are very much
annoyed by the $40 visa fee which
European countries impose on Ameri-
cans in retaliation for the charge
made by the United States.
The weary American woman at
Oldenzaal mentioned this: THE
worst of it all is that one can't COM
plain about the ridiculous passport
charges. We know that Americans
deserve to be given dose of our own
medicine. But there is one Congress
man in New Jersey who will get
fine piece of my mind when l reach
home The high charges initiated by
the United States have made the
passport business so profitable in
many of the smaller European
countries that bureacracy has been
built up about passport offices which
can't Re broken down very easily.
And we American tourists pay the
bill and suffer the inconvenience. |
should like to see every member OF
Congress who voted for this $40 fee
forced TO go through all I have gone
since May in this passport business.
Il personally can afford the money
but there are n lot of teachers and
other working women who came over
here to see the Passion Play this
year who had to curtail their trip
because of the heavy passport fees.
1t is pretty mean for our government
to run the State Department at the
expense of women of that sort. For
tunately they all have a vote now
and Congress will hear from them"
