THE GROWING ACCIDENT 1Isrs.


In view OF the report which has been
made 70 the effect that there were $3.50
motor vehicle accidents in the state of
Rhode Island last year in which there
were 80 deaths. It is believed by the
Providence Bulletin that 1t reveals
situation that ought to startle the
states people so that the law Of the road
shan be improved wherever possible and
enforced rigidly. Additional police,
heavier penalties for violators Of the law
and better detective work where need

seeking escape from the consequences

uhed = thereby this orgy Of mad speed

Tbs Increasing number Of motor vehi-
cies and the increasing number Of accI-
dents IN which they figure. even though
the percentage OF increase in accidents
may not be as great as the percentage

len that every state must deal with, and
deal with effectively II there is to be OBJ
aimed that safety Of the highway to
which everyone using = IS entitled.
The greater number Of accidents in
Rhode Island rejects a condition SINH
lar 20 other states. Efforts IN behalf Of
safety must be IN keeping with the in
crease IN the number Of cars 10 keep
down the growing accident list and
greater = the desired inroads are to be
nads n the yearly list. It IS an unfor-
turate revelation which IS made in Con-
necti1ut when Il IS shown that the great
est Increase n reckless driving comes
from those who are endeavoring TO guide
@ motor vehicle, capable Of doing all
sorts Of damage. while they are under
ne influence OF liquor or from those who
are Intentionally taking chances for va
rious reasons which furnish no justif-
sztion.
Not only half Of those involved IN mo-
sor vehicle accidents were prosecuted in
Rhode Island last year. It can be ap-
pruciated that there are accidents which
90 not warrant prosecution, accidents
which are unavoidable. but the deplora
BE fact remains that because there /:

Signals of Fear

Signals of Fear
Fear might well be made the sub
ject of an entire specialized branch of
psychology. To a great extent it has
beer. But the work is far from COM
plete
Nevertheless it has brought the sci
entific man to the point where he no
longer despises the coward-at least
the physical coward-but pities him
instead.
It has brought him to the point
where he realizes that much which
passes for courage is merely ignorance
mental inability to grasp the serious
ness of the risk taken, or the conse-
duences of it, If the result Is unfayo-
raole.
Wise officers, in the medical corps
and the line, made truly noble use of
this knowledge in the war when they
saved many man from the disgrace
of "cowardice simply by transferring
him from the kind of danger that his
nerves would not stand to the kind that
they would stand. There were several
instances of men who covered and
Jagged going "Over the top with
guns in their hands, who had plenty
of courage lodging the shrapnel and
machine gun bullets with stretchers
in their hands. and vice versa.
