WORSE AND MORE OF 1T

The people of Anne Arundel
county have every right to eX-
pect and demand that 50 import
ant a matter as road admlnistra-
ton shall be kept as free from po-
litical Juggling as possible; but
when the County Commissioners
met this week they took pans to
"rub in" their performance OF the
previous week by still further at
tempting To paralyze the whole
machinery of road operations.
1t was bad enough to try to
punish the County Road Engineer
for daring to do his duty in the
matter of appointing road fore
men by peremptorily reducing
his salary to 81 400, as officially
announced, but when this week II
was disclosed that the minutes
had arbitrarily been changed by
instruction of the President OF the
Board and afterwards corrected
so as to read $500 instead OF
ST 400 as the Engineers salary,
there is but one conclusion to
reach and that is that even all
pretense of statutory procedure
has been cast aside in favor OF
supposed factional advantage. 1t
matters not which faction Is
sought TO be benefited, as IT
would be indefensible from any
standpoint The average citizen
is already surfeited with faction
alism and is craving some real
public service in his behalf
Here we are. with practically
all work in one important distric'
entirely suspended by order OF
the Board, and the County Road
Engineer tied hand and foot by
the same authority. all because
he has shown the courage 10 re-
sist dictation in appointing or re-
moving working foremcn con
trary to his own better Judgment,
in accordance with his obligations
under the existing law.
AS stated in last Thursdays is
sue OF the Evening Capital, it IS
not now a question of whether
the Engineer measures up TO the
qualifications prescribed by the
statute, or whether he should be
removed because of alleged unfit
ness or incompetency,-as to &C
complishing which the exact pro
eedure is laid down III the law
but is directly a question of whe-
Their the first principles OF fair
play and the provisions OF the
statute itself should be followed.
There can be no justification
for the present procedure adopted
by the ruling combination in the
Board, and the sooner they adapt
their administration i'll this re
spect to something besides guer-
rilla warfare. the better II Will be
for all concerned.-chief among
whom are the taxpayers and the
users of the public roads.

competition among taxicabs and traf-
fic congestion in the city had resulted
IN so many accidents as to require
the bonding OF all taxicab chauffeurs
in the interests OF the public
The opposition spoke mainly as &c
the discrimination which they thought
was contained in the bill in that II
made taNicab drivers take out a bond
and eliminated the drivers and
owners of private automobiles.
All OF those who opposed the bill
were in favor OF this legislation but
thought the bill did not go far enough
in it's failure to include all auto
mobiles.
They also objected to the amount
of money the taxi chauffeurs might
have to pay to secure this bond, al
though in other States the insurance
rates have been adjusted to meet the
requirements and with such a large
number in New York the rates would
automatically seek a new low level.

DEATHS BY TAxIcA5s A DIRE.
Full SHOWING.

The police records Of the City Of
New York show that in the year 1921
there were killed by taxicabs sixty
people, 1895 were injured. and the
total number of accidents included in
the foregoing were 1000
That in addition to these accidents
collisions Of motor vehicles OF all
kinds, including taXicabs, resulted in
! 23 people being killed and 500 per-
sons being injured in the year 1921.
The records of the CITY Of New
York show that there are 1900 un-
collectihle judgments due to automo-
bile accidents, for which the injured
will not receive any compensation by
reason of the operators being financi-
ally irresponsible, as it appears that
the operator of the car Immediately
places a mort gage or lien against his
cab, so that no collection can be made
for the injury received.
Under the statutes OF the state OF
Illinois. y similar Act is in operation
which requires bond Of 10000
whereas this statute requires a bond
of $500. to overcome any objection
that might be urged rs to the amount
Of indemnity being too high.
Also the chauffeur who puts w
the required bond or policy insurance
which will permit him TO operate, will
needs prove that he is not reckless or
of bad character because no surety
will continue to hold themselves liable
if the applicant has been shown to be
poor and extra hazardous risk.
"The guarantees that would he re-
quired by the Surety Company from
the owner of the cab would be the
qualifications as to o'respcctability and
capability to guarantee the freedom
from ncgli gence and viciousness
which will aiC in reducing the number
Of irresponsible cab drivers"
explained TO the Governor that
the efforts made by the Evening
World to establish the present ordin-
ance and to eliminate special privi-
lcEes had resulted in a far wider use
of taXicabs, which now number $1,000
as against 1000 when the ordinance
went into effect and this large mum
ber has developed condition that
has grown almost intolerable Keen

WAR ON RATS BY POISON
DENOUNCED AS MENACE
Woman Says Cat Is Best Antidote
and Deserves Higher Place
in Home.
To the Editor Of Tho Star:

To the Editor Of Tho Star:
In regard to recent articles pub
lished in The Evening Star and other
newspapers referring to the destruc-
tion of rats, one is surprised that such
conditions exist Now, 1 and many
others take great exception to the
plan suggested for getting rid of the
rats. 1t is a we'll known fact tnat a
good cat will account for numberless
mice and rats. People. generally, do
not value the services of cat, though
she more than pays for her room and
board, but as a rule, the cat is treated
more as yagrant than as a regular
and most useful member of the fam
lily. The practice of putting the cat
out of the hoase at night is especially
to be deplored. as, for many reasons,
the place of duty for the cat is in
best work
To scatter poison, or to place it In
dishes. meat or in any form outside
the house is a menace to the life of
children and domestic animals every
where. Also the mere fact that a
the board of health or whoever is be-
hind the movement, is most unfortu-
nate in that it affords vicious per-
sons the opportunity, under cover of
poisoning rats, to obtain poison
which they could not otherwise buy
to place in the way of any dog or cat
against which they might have har-
bored dislike and which would
be dangerous to children also, as said
above. -
No open poison should be allowed at
all. Traps might be set, SO that no
animal larger than a rat could reach
it. and whatever is left in, the trap
should be burned at once. The safe
and sure remedy is the work done by
certain companies here, which, by a
system of scientific spraying and set
ting of traps. will effectually and
safely rid ones premises of vermin OF
all sorts.
Apartments and hotels use these
safe and sanitary methods and one
is surprised that the city heads have
not adopted them long since. I'M

to practice the antiquated form of
putting out poison for the rat is quite
