Type,uritten Poem Giues Clue
To Name of World War Victim

Nothing is left undone which might
reduce the number Of Americas un-
known dead of the world war. The
machinery Of the graves registration
service of the Army is working slow
ly and surely step by step to find
a right name for some soldier who
fills the grave Of an unknown. After
q long investigation the number Of
unknown dead has been reduced by
one; this time it was a typewriter
poem found on the body Of an Amer
lean soldier killed near Binarville.
France. 1t was identified as the body
Of Thomas O'Keefe, Company D, 306tk
Machine Gun Battalion, 77th Division.
BY tracing the poem to its author
and checking over the. lists Of the
27th and 77th Divisions searchers
ultimately found the widow of the
missing soldier, who positively
identified other articles found on the
body.
Find Several Articles.
Records Of the graves registration
service show that when the body
was taken from it's battlefield rest
ing place to be placed with fallen
comrades in the permanent Ameri-
can cemeteries in France. 1t was be-
lieved to be that of Corp. Logan

known to have been killed near the
spot.

RECKLESS DRIVING.
PENA[TYISuKE[Y
Traffic Committee Expected
to Include Clause in Req
ulations for Motorists.
NEW SECTION. PROPOSED
Improved Headlight Law Discuss
ed at Meeting-Bill Imposing
Jail Sentences, Approved.

A reckless driving regulation will be
recommended to the Commissioners by
their traffic committee. which discussed
the dangers of the streets for three
hours at the District building yesterday
afternoon.
The proposed new section has not yet
been drafted. but the purport of 1t will
be that motorists shall drive their cars
in such way as to be safe under the
prevailing circumstances.
1t is understood TO be the view of the
committee that fixed speed limits should
be retained, even with the reckless clause
Whether these fixed limits should be
increased or lowered has not been de-
cidcd.
AS one member Of the committee eX-
planned tie idea today, a person might
be permitted. by the speed section, to
SerS"ctionS. but Ii he We're caught driving
through group of children en- route to
school he could be held for reckless
driving. even though his car was making
less than eighteen miles at the time.
Improvement of the headlight rules
in the District also was discussed at
length yesterday. 1t was decided to
delegate NJ. O. Eldridge Of the Ameri-
. can Automobile Association to go to
the bureau of standards and get the
best available data on safe head
lights.
! The committee heartily approved
! the proposed law, sent to Congress
yesterday by the Commissioners. Civ
ing them the right to prescribe a
Jail sentence for certain violations of
the traffic rules At the present time
the court may only impose a Jail
sentence for second or third offenses.
Speed on Bridges Considered.
+. c. Hunt engineer Of highways
for the District was empowered to
study the question of speed over
wooden bridges
1t is probable that at the next meet
ing of the committee, Monday, con-
sideration will be given to whether
the present speed limit of eighteen
miles should be increased slightly,
retaining, however, the recommends
ton for a reckless driving clause.
Several members of the Board OF
Trade traffic. committee. including
Odell Smith and W. Pearce Rayner,
sat with the Commissioners commit
tee yesterday and outlined the views
of the board for improving traffic
conditions.

Senator John Sharp Williams of
Mississippi. who voluntarily retires
from the Senate after long service in

dered a farewell last night by a spe-
cial meeting Of the Mississippi So

paid by several speakers.
Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi

sippian and outstanding figure of his
day. Senator Harrison also referred
10 an offer he understood Senator
Williams had received from a news
paper syndicate of $4,000 annually
10 write one article week on public
events.
Senator Williams in responding ex-
pressed his love for his native state,
which. he said. could now be rendered
without his being accused Of having
an AK 10 grind. Going home to Mis-
sissippi. the veteran senator an
hounced, he would rise when the cock
crows. gather flowers while the dew
Is upon them, read his books, eat din
ner In the middle of the day, return to
DOCKS and letter writing in the after
ioon; eas supper, not dinner. in the
evening, listen to the sweet serenade
OF his band OF mocking birds in the
twilight and live out happy old
age surrounded by troops of friends.

nome by his neighbors and be buried
Win his people.
NOW some will say" declared the
senator. that is not q very wonder
,ul thing to do-but it's a lot more
honest than being senator"
Inc speaker regaled his audience
mitn humorous stories. and in closing
begged indulgence for having turned
most or my speech into persifiage."
ne could not sing a swan song he
sald' although he would later write n
letter or farewell, but he dared not
speak too seriously on a subject
Which touched him so deeply. .'I

cluded.

over records of the eth Division

tials corresponding to those on the
ring. The search was fruitIess. AS
