BOOZE AND AUTO WRECKS

No newspaper reader who follows the
shocking increase in automobile accidents can
escape the conviction that very large proper
ton is due to liquor in way or another Inc
liquor may be in the driver or in the machine
which is wrecked or the wrecked machine may
be the result of liquor in the car which did the
damage
The accident may be a skid or a collision
with a post. 1t may be the result of needless
approach to a railroad or trolley crossing which
ends in death or injury, but no matter what form
the accident or casualty should make, the amaz-
ing thing is that liquor figures in such high
proportion of cases.
Many times the newspapers at the moment
fail to learn that booze has been contributing
factor in the smash-up. but inquiry shows sur
prisngly larger number of automobile misfor-
tunes due to drink.
To all motorists and to all pedestrians who
use the highways this is a condition that may
well cause apprehension. Wife beating, indus
trial inefficiency, paupersm. crime. are among
the causes that prompted this nation to establish
prohibition. Reckless autoists provide still an
other reason. Bad as the situation is. can the
melee of auto accidents be conceived if the old
grog shops were running as they once were?

A THANKLESS CHILD.

Henry L. Mencken. an iconoclastic writer
who has enjoyed certain popularity among the
intelligentzia of this country. has been rampag-
ing around Europe recently and condemning
everything American. In Berlin he is reported
to have said that England would fight America
within year over ship subsidies, and on the
eve of his return to New York he is quoted as
saying: Il have become monarchist of the
fourth dimension since finding the way repub-
! lies are run" Mencken was busting back to a
republic to get his book in print. He
can make more money out of his idiosyncrases
in this country than he can abroad where mental
alteration and the bizarre ARE at discount. And
besides, it is much safer to live in the United
States. But Mencken would hardly be missed
if he should elect to cast his lot permanently
with fourth dimension monarchies-of course
after he has cleaned up on his book.
