Drunken Drivers.

DIFFERENTIATION of the District Commits
- sioners to drive drunken automobile pilots
from the streets of Washington can evoke only en-
thusastc approval from the rank and file of ct-
zenry. There need be no question of the eonven-
fence of individuals when the safety of the public is
concerned.
The question has arisen as to the justice of
deprivng a reformed man of the right to drive
his after he has once been convicted Of
ntoxication while at the wheel. This consideration
should disturb nobody. The penalty is inflicted not
as a personal punishment but as a protection for
the people. The average man will give more care
full consideration to driving when drunk if he knows
he will be deprived of his permit for all time if
causht.
Not all automobile accidents are caused by
liquor. The most careful driver occasionally will
meet with misfortune The coolest and clearest
brain can not avoid smash-up in while
But the fact remains that, in the average acci-
dent one OF the principals usually is drunk.
Washington streets would be dangerous enough
if frequented only by experienced and sober drivers
At no time is it entirely safe to the street
Dupont Circle, Thomas Circle or Iowa Circle.
The regiously inclined pedestrian breathes a
prayer before venturing from the pavement-espe-
cialy in the morning or late afternoon when the
great of government workers are motoring
to or from work.
For the drivers themselves the of other
automobiles, street and pedestrians into which
they plunged is confusing. Oftentmes the
walkers fail to observe ordinary traffic rules-foks
travelled foot before they travelled in automobiles
The driver has, in any event, most fimsy case if
he anybody down.
Considering the unavoidable danger, it is the
duty Of the police and the District Commissioners
to do away with any risks that can be prevented.
without respect for persons. Determined and un-
relenting prosecution of drunken drivers is one
means they take to increase the security of the
public. Mere revocation of permits to drive is
extremely mercfu. A long jail term, whether any
is injured or not. would be more appropriate.
In any event. the permits should be made invalid
orever-even if the drunken driver in later life be-

H AROLD F. MCCORMICK has set bad
precedent for gentlemen Of Great wealth
and may do the world an i'll turn by destroying a
comfortable Illusion
He has tried to purchase another mans youth
with dollars-snd folks always have said that
youth belonged to God, alone. and was not pur-
chasable with the goods of this world.
As millionaires go, Mr.. Mccormick has been
rather decent human being. He has represented
the best type OF Americans who have accumu-
lated much money by honest means. Nobody
will blame him for buying with his wealth what
ever he wishes and pay for-even the years
of another human life. Put there should be no
medical skill available for the harvester king
which is not available to the street laborer.

ment there will be end to the market. How
about forming stock company to conduct this
great new enterprise? There are millions to be
made What of sixty with million would
not spend it all to be one-and-twenty again?
Here is the greatest opportunity pre-
sented to the ambitious middleman. There will

Here is who has come to the great dis

wealth. He is willing to give up all to become

But. alas, how little youth amounts to with
out that same wealth. time burdened with
thankless labor and hopeless vision. The preach
will be wrong, after all.
Did the Director of the destines OF men
intend that wealth. fame and youth never should
go together? Is it Gods law that a man mus,

appetite for pleasure when he has the other?
No We doubt usually. that the Almighty
