Plan to Cub
"pon't Care" Driver

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 29.-The
motorist who persisted in violating
the local tr' ffic rules would suffer
more than he who broke them infre,
quently if a novel plan invented by
the police hire. to curb the "don't
care" driver is put into effect.
Violators would be rated by means
of punch marks ON registration cards
which motorists in Florida are re
quired to carry with them. When a
motorist aroused the ire of traffic
officer through failure to obey sig
nails or by the cutting of corners, the
officer would demand the drivers
registration card and for each VIC.
lation of the rules would punch it,
Every motorist thus would carry his
record with him and when hailed into
court the judge would examine the
card and ascertain the number of
Tins he had violated the law and been
released with reprimand from an
officer. The hardened offender would
get the limit while the driver wi h
n good record would be dealt with
lightly. go.

Educational Movement
in Burma Declining

Rangoon, Jan. 20.-The Nationalist
educational movement in Burma
which originated more than year
ago appears to be declining.
Large numbers of students have
been leaving the Nationalist schools
and going back to the government
schools and governmentaided mission
schools whence they came.
A number of the Nationalist
schools have been closed chiefly be-
cause of the difficulty of supporting
them without taxation, because no
university will recognize degrees con-
fercd by the Nationalist College and
because of the belief held by. many
Burman Nationalists that a perma-
nent system of Burmese education
cannot be formed until complete home
rule has been attained.
One of the first steps in the Nation
alist educational movement was q
boycott of agitation against the Uni
versty of Rangoon. However, Maung
E., Of Mandalay, one of the leaders
of the boycott agitation has just ask
ed in the Rangoon Times that the
boycott be called off. He declared
that "at this stage of the movement ii
is manifest that an unconditional boy
cott can produce dire consequences to
the nation. In Burma the boycott OF
one university means boycott of ed.
ucation.
This staying aloof, like Achilles
sulking in his tent with the peevish
ness of child, is bad policy in pub
lie questions. The University boycott
is like the Australian boomerang AMI
now rebounds to the aggressor."

Planning for Repair Shop
On Mexican Borde,

El Paso, Texas, Jan. 28.-Plans for
he inauguration of large repair
shop at some point on the border, to
put into condition the hundreds of
disabled Mexican locomotives are be-
ing pushed by Ramon P. de Negri,
director general of Mexican railroads,
according to his announcement here
!Ie says the plans are almost COM
plete.
The shops would employ 500 Am
nrican machinists to do the skilled
labor and from 500 to 1000 help
ers and common laborers, at con.
scrvative estimate.
American machinists would be fur
n;shed by the international associa-
ton of machinists and would reside
IN the American side of the border.
J. w. Kelly, international repre-
Fontative of the machinists, who re-
Gently returned from Mexico City, is
close friend of Mr.. de Negri, and
has had several conferences with him
c~arding the shops, he said.
Juarez is looked upon as the most
favorable point for the shops on ac-
count of climatic conditions and rail
road facilities through Ell Paso.
The average monthly payroll for
500 mach;nists and helpers at their
present scale would be almost $780,
900 month, officials said.
Mr.. Kelly organized five Mexican
locals of machinists with total
membership of 1000 he said. Three
Other locals now are being formed.
President Obregon and Mr.. de
Ecgri are members of the Intena-
'ional Association of Machinists, and
The president is practical machin-

Young Women Game Life
To Save Affinanced Husband

Geneva, Jan. 29.-Miss Gaproni, a
2O-year old girl of Locarno, has just
given her blood and then her life to
save her aflinanced husband who had
been seriously injured in an auto
mobile accident. The physician de-
clared that immediate infusion of
blood was the only hope and Miss
Gaproni, against her parents wishes
volunteered hers.
The operation was success, both
recovered health but three weeks
later the girl contracted pneumonia,
attributed to the indirect result of
loss of blood. The wedding had been
fixed for Christmas day.

Cossack Leader Will
Visit United States

Shanghai, Jan. 2s.-More than a
hundred Chinese students who went
to France early last year under a
plan by which they were to be en-

obtaining education along industrial
lines were brought back more or less
destitute when the plan failed to
work out in accordance with expecta-
tions. A method to provide tempo
rarily for these students was worked
out in December by Chinese authori-
ties in Shanghai and measures were
undertaken to send those who live at
points in China distant from Shang-
hal back to their homes.
