Keep Up the Safety Drive

10 the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir; The statistics from Washing
ton in your issue of November 8 in
regard to the number of deaths and
Injuries from automobiles and motor
vehicles should cause all thoughtful
and humane persons to put forth
every effort toward the safety of the
individual.
With the increased number of auto
MOBILES in urban centers, the conges-
sion OF street traffic has become one
Oh the major problems of local munic-
ipal government. There must be
strict enforcement of traffic regula-
tons and the most exacting examina-
ton of chauffeurs and operators of
cars.
a ceaseless educational propaganda
OF carefulness and regard to Safety
First" Is necessary. The newspapers
can do much by publishing statistics
and warnings, but concerted move
ment must be promoted in favor Of
safety.
The United States Human Safety
and Road Educational Association Is
to hold banquet on November % at
the Commodore, Hotel, at which men
OF prominence and of authority on
safety problems will set forth the
program of precautions and safe
guards which that association is
carrying out as an educative and
humanitarian movement.
All good citizens should be vitality
Interested in this work.

All Against the Saloon

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In The Tribune of November
3 Mr.. G. c. Hinckley, the national secre-
tary Of the Association Against the
Prohibition Amendment, states that
that association is as firmly set seains
the return of the saloon as it is
against the Volstead act.
! should like to ask what Mr., Hinck-
ley would call the places where beer
and wine would be sold IL not saloons !?
Would he call these places by another
name, and what difference would the
name make anyway? They would be
open saloons, no matter what thew
might be called, and we ali know that
where beer and wine are sold there
also would be sold every kind of in
toxicating drink.

, We still trail along with Mr.. Lewis,
chanting our conviction that 'Babbltt'
is the best book we have read since
we began to do this work, or for a long
| while before that.
Speaking of motion pictures, we're
starting to doubt whether they are
still in their infancy or, rather, whether
there Is any hope whatever that they'll
emerge from it. We are beginning to
suspect that some one must have
dropped the infant on It's head a few
years back and arrested its mentality
permanently.
We don't think the movies have ad-
vanced perceptible step in all tie
years that have intervened since tie

We doubt if we were to swear off 70
ing to them for ten years to come and
tnen were TO re-enter q film thester.
II there are any left by then, whether
we'd discover any change EXCEPT in the
costumes of the actors.
Or course, the trouble may be that
motion pictures have caught up with
the artistic tasts Of humanity. That
taste has been developing slowly for
number of centuries. Only 8 fsv
years ago the art of film story telling
was born. At first # was just speck
OF protoplasm among infinitely older
and more advanced matters. 1t hur-
ried to catch up.
This haste made the development Of
the art enormously swift and dramatic,
Pictures kept getting better and bet
ter, and as they more closely approx
mated public taste enthusiasm FOR
them grew higher and higher.
And then, all at once, the moving
pictures caught up with the head Of
this slow-moving glacier they call civ
ilization. Once there there was ne
where else to GO. You either had %
run on ahead Of the glacier into the
distance or else you had to sit dow
| upon its edge and swing your feet
The impetus of few leaders in the
art or business or whatever you choose
to call 1t inspired them to venture be-
yond the glacier front. They produces
pictures like Broken Blossoms" and
some others that were in advance q
public appreciation. They lost money
and went back to making the old styls
picture that insured box Office returns.
They didn't want to be pioneers. Thss
| would rather be miliionaires.
So they all returned and sat on the
glacier, and took to swinging their fee'
again and riding with it, few inches

A Party of Mavericks

~ aEty "a IsAdSGTICkS
i There can be no question of the
Middle West insurgency within the
Republican party, and there can be
sno question that the recent election
has much increased its fervor and
influence. Equally. as The Tribune
has pointed out, If the Fordneys and
McCumbers run the party during
+ the next two years there can be no
! doubt that this insurgency will have
assumed alarming proportions and
that conditions will be ripe for
serious split in 1924 or thereafter.
But when the correspondent of
s'The New York Times" sits down
at his typewriter and builds q
third party out Of Messrs. johnson,
Borah, La Toilette and the farm
bloc, now complete and ready to
launch and able to float ard sail.
he is anticipating events by good
long distance. Any one who has
watched these vigorous individuals
In their daily round of legislative
service viii be glad to explain why.
In the first place, there are al
ready signs that The Tribunc's view
that the Republican leadership in
House and Senate must frankly
recognize the new forces in the
party is widely shared. Just how
recognition can be given in the
Senate is matter of detail if once
&c is agreed that men of the Lenroot
type must have larger say in the
counsels of the party than before.
1t is The Tribune's hope and belief
that the Republican party is not
the private property Of few re-
dictionaries, but Is still alive and
growing, able to wrestle with the
new problems of the whole country.
as it has wrestled with the old. The
party, In short, is not going to lie
down on the road, but is going for
ward. If it does the Democratic
hope Of third party might as we'll
be abandoned forthwith.
There is second reason why the
present group of insurgents is not
ripe for. separate leadership. That
IS because they insist upon leading
in so many different directions. Mr..
Borah and Mr.. johnson can at times
unite upon destination for a while
and occasionally Mr.. La Toilette
will agree that their idea is not
altogether bad. But a permanent
party organization, with single
leader and joint action! There is
no need of pausing for a reply.
The correspondent Of "The Times"
ended upon the metaphors Of the
Todeo. He Gkened the members Of
che two parties to cattle in corral,
rushing blindiy first in this direc-
ton, then in that, and, Of course
not escaping. The third party was

man can explain the flaw in this
theory. The best brains Of the farm
bloc--and they are very good-for
better or worse are hardened
mavericks, so far as organization
goes. They like the ranges, and the
very thought of a brand sends them
snto day-long speech in the Senate.
They are mighty good for the health
of Congress, and the Republican
party is not likely to die so long as
they remain to keep it stirring. But
they are not the stuff of which third
parties are built-yet.

What Readers .Sau
Reeds Republican Lift
the Editor Of The Tribune.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: AS to Senator Reed, Of
Missouri, the Republicans elected him
to rub it in" on Wilson. St. Louis
gave him $4,000 majority. Outside of St.
Louis the majority against him was
$4,000. He got a 10000 Republican
majority. AS the Republicans elected
him, he ought to enroll and vote as a
Republican.
1t seems good to have young, level
headed fellow like Thomas F. Bayard,
of Delaware, elected to the Senate.
The country needs more like him.

Hard Work and Eight-Hour Day

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: I have read with great inter-
eat the editorial in your issue of
October 30 entitled, "The Eight-Rou
Day." That editorial Is apparently
suggested by my comment that indus
try should aim at accepting the eight
hour day.
You are entirely right, as see It,
IN your statement that "this country
has become great through hard work,
and only by hard work can it hold it's
supremacy. The full adoption Of the
eight-hour day must come with the
full appreciation Of this truth"

More Truth Than Poetry
By James ]. Montague
Nothing to Wish For

A man who has served in the
Presidents chair
In the land of the brave and
the free
In spite of the worry and trouble
and care
Can never get rid Of the bee.
The voters ere long may regard
him askance
And presently give him the
sack,
But if he lays hold of the ghost
of a chance
He always will try to come
back.
They say that Prime Ministers,
out of job,
Are sad and disconsolate men.
Wherever they wander their
hearts are a-throb
To serve their dear nations
again.
They speak of the labor great
offices bring
TO loyal and hard working
Nlallt
Who tirelessly labors for country
and king
But they always come back
when they can.
But E. de Valera, although he
once ruled
The folk Of the Emerald Isle,
Where people from childhood are
carefully schooled
To fight in the Donnybrook
style,
And who is at present the privat-
est kind
Of q common and titLeless
gent,
With no cares Of Office to weigh
on his mind,
Has reason to be quite content
And although the cables assert he
will seek
To enter once more in the race,
The better his long standing ven
geance to wreak
If he lands in the President s
place,
If he'll take the advice Of man
over here
Though the prize may seem
very alluring--
On the day of election he'll just
disappear,
And his life will be more worth
insuring!

THE GREAT GLAND MYSTERY

Of "Pa11sy the Girl Revenooer,
"LoVe Laughs" "Hoto Do They
Get That Wag?" etc, otc.)
XII.
A naked native runner came pant
ing through the jungle, his brown
hide cleaning with perspiration,
for India was having a heated spell.
"a radio message from Capt.
Fitzurse," he said, and fell uncon-
scious.
The Rajah hastily tore open the
blue envelope and read:
Am on my way stop Fitzurse."
"Thank God" said the Rajah.
XIII.
Let us return to Miss Maybelle
Bellemaye, the Empress Of the
Films.
Having received the news that
the Gland had been stolen she i'm
med1ately consulted with her law
yers and then, hastily scribbling a
message, she rang for a messenger
boy.
Then she and her Momma dropped
upon their knees and prayed.
All that night they spent upon
their knees.
When dawn came a messenger
boy arrived with the reply. Little
Maybelle hastily tore open the blue
envelope and read:
"On my way stop Fitzurse.",
"Thank Cod" said Maybelle.

We are in the Arabian desert
again. The Sheik Al-Ullah-B -Bul-bul
PAGES the oasis in front Of his
palatial tent scanning the horizon
with fieldglass.
A camel comes galloping over the
sands. The rider reins him in, and,
leaping from the beasts back, pre-
sents blue envelope to his master.
The Sheik hastily tears it open and
reads:
"Am on my way stop Fitzurse."
"Allah be praised" says the
Sheik.
Let us return to Felix Winter
withe, the aged millionaire's private
secretary, who is pacing up and
down in front of the partially ex-
| ploded mansion. He seems nery-
GUS.
| Suddenly messenger boy ahghts
from wheel and hands him blue
envelope. He reads:
cam on my way stop Fitzurse."
''Thank God," says Felix Winter
withe.
Wilton J. Barnstable, the great
private detective, sat in his Office
at the top of skyscraper over
looking vast fields of city, listen
ing to his ticker. Suddenly his
private call came, and he read on
the tape; "Cheer up stop on my
way stop Fitzurse."
"Thank God," said the Great De-
tective.

Let US return to Dartie Dunn. the
reporter.
He was asking himself whether
ne should open the package or not.
The Woman in Purple stood on
the stairway and watched him.
The cobras from their places in
the tour corners of the mysterious
crypt We're also watching him with
their evil eyes.

the darkness a luminous hand ap-
peared writing in letters Of fire on

peninsula, south of CONSTANT

News dispatch from CONSTANT
nople today.
The Kemalists are said to be
concentrating in the Ismid zone.
Fears of war in Asia Minor
again blazed forth today in the
wake of the collapse of the

ence at Mudania.

Gen. Sir Charles Harrington,
British commanI,r in Turkey, tele-
graphed to the cabinet that the
Turks were in a most truculent
frame of mind"
1t was indicated that the Turks
were threatening hostilities imme-
diately.
General Harrington reported that
the Turks were demanding their
own terms, feeling that their vic
tory over the Greeks gave them
the right to speak as conquerors.
Thrace Caused Collapse.
It was explained at Premier Lloyd
Georges office. 10 Downing street,
that the collapse of the negotiations
had been brought about by the insis-
tence of the Turks that matters be
taken up that General Harrington
had no authority to discuss.
The chief cause of the breakup OF
the deliberations was said to have
been eastern Thrace. The Turks de.
manded the right to establish civil
administration in eastern Thrace i'm.
mediately, fearing that diplomacy
might rob them of some of their
claims in that district II they waited
until after the peace conference.

were headed for collapse. General
Harrington sent a telegram to the
British cabinet explaining the situa-
