 ton of the plan outlined by paNin
 Lloyd George. flor harmonizing ana
 unifying Great Britain and the United States in purpose and ideals" is eN- pressed in fl telegram received by the
 former British premier today rom Atlanta and signed by "William Jos eph Simmons, emperor of the invisible empire" Of the l<u kiuS Klan.
 May not tender to you," the tcle- gram says, my deep appreciation of the plan you outlined for harmonizing and unifying Great Britain and tho United states in purpose and ideals The order of which l have the honor to be the founder and responsible head and composed of millions Of native born white Protestant citizens of this country. has as part of its program of service the unification of the two white English speaking na- tions of the world.
 Neither tho league of nations nor the International court can accomplish the ends so earnestly desired. A com pact between sovereign nations dis similar in color. creed and ideals can not be maintained. The international court cannot coerce and restrain the nations of the earth into righteous and lmicable relations.
 Your country and my country must ,e linked together by the ties of blood, of sympathy, of common des- iny to preserve our Anglo-S Saxon civilization and to safeguard the world | against recurrence of war. In any went Great Britain and the United l States must be united in deeper and | iner things of democracy and deter nined that white men shall never en- | ,age in war against white men any | where upon the face of the earth"
 A cablegram was also received from David Gilpin, lord mayor of Sydney, inviting the former premier to visit australia.

YOUR LIFE DULL?

After following the sea 46 years, in which he sailed
a total of 2y500yO0 miles, Captain Anthony Cadogan retlres'
His last ocean trip was from Buenos Aires to New YORK.
A great sea name, Anthony Cadogan. And a wonderful
career that will be enyied by nearly all OF us VINO are
chained to a dull humdrum existence.
Captain Cadogan has friends in every country IN the
world. He crossed the equator 800 times. He has seen many
equally startling changes in the countries he visited. Ad-
ventures many, including capture by the German RAIDER
Karlsruhe in 1916.
Captain Cadogan retires to his home near New York
City. He will not find life dull, for he will live chiefly IN
memories.
Why is it, that the other fellow gets the romance and adj
venture of life, while most of us get only a monotonous
grnd'
A few years after Captain Cadogan made his first trip at
sea on the fullrigged ship Lord Canning, a young fellow
running a bicycle repair shop was tinkering with a gasoline
engine, trying to make it operate a "horseless carriage.
That young fellow was Henry Ford.
Recently he has been turning out finished cars at the rate
of one every four seconds.
The Wall Street Journal inspects Ford's business report
for the IL months ended last Feb. %, and figures that he
made a profit of $50 on each car.
How would you like to have $55 dropping into your lap
every four seconds7
Captain Cadogan, contemplating Ford, will agree that
in many ways Henry has the most interesting life of any
landlubber.
Captain Cadogan can have his ocean and Henry Ford
can have his $50 every four seconds, as far as Farren Zerbe
is concerned. For Zerbe, world-famed coin expert, has the
largest coin in existence. It's a Swedish piece, minted in 17Sesy
weighs nearly seven pounds, is stamped out of copper plate
10 inches square.
What more could any man want than a collection Of rare
bits of metal such as this old s'daler," Zerbe probably won
ders.
Lots of interesting careers in this life, most of us reflect,
even if the majority have to watch from the sidelines.

IN MOTOR
LAWS IS TOLD OF
Daily Letter by Frederic J.. Haskin

Don't Know What is Good for Them
strangely enough, one of the
greatest obstacles in the way of this
reform movement is to be found in
the attitude taken by the motorists
themselves in many instances. They
do not seem to know what is good
Tor them. At any rate they are prone
10 resist new laws and regulations
on the ground tina they are oppres-
siye when the sole idea back OF the
proposed legislation is that it MAJ
secure a greater measure of safety,
convenience and comfort to those
who travel by motor.
For instance, reference may be
had TO the matter OF drivers per-
mits. In Pennsylvania there is no
state law whatever requiring such
permits or licenses. In New York,
outside of New York City. no exam
nations are required, and the owner
OF a car is issued a general license
h a may be used by any member of
the family, irrespective of age. In
New Jersey. on the other hand. every
motorist must pass the most rigid
test of his qualifications as a driver.
A learners permit is first Issued TO

nation and a road test.
This that when a driver
gets a license or permit in that state
he is entitled TO II and obviously such
a law is intended as a safeguard to
everybody concerned-those who
drive cars, those who ride in cars
with others at the wheel, and those
on the streets and highways who
might be endangered by ignorant,
incompetent or reckless drivers. II
is a safety first requirement Of the
first degree. Yet when similar laws
are proposed in other states a wall
OF protest goes up from automobile
owners as II their most sacred rights
were being invaded.
Again, with respect to regulations
as to the character of headlights
that may be used, anyone who stops
to think knows that they are in the
general interest and all drivers know
the danger of being blinded by the
glazing light of an approaching car.
But many motorists seem to have
the idea that il is only the other
| fellow who should be required to
use a DINNER, and that they have a
right to Object ~strenuousiy when told
that they must adopt a headlight of
a certain type
1t has been suggested that the
short cut TO uniformity of motor
laws would be to have the federal
government enact a general .aw I'M
der it's authority to regulate inter-
state commerce, but such a proposal
runs counter to state sovereignty,
After all, it seems that despite the
impression many people have that
the government can regulate any
thing and everything there are some
things that IL can not do. \
The Conference of Motor Vehicle
Administrators recognizes that uni
formity must come through the state
legislatures and Is working 10 that
end. 1t is making haste slowly, how
ever. with the idea of avoiding mis-
takes and in order not to arous re
sentiment and hostility on the part
of motorists toward all such laws.
Eventually IL is hoped that one
small manual will suffice TO cover al
the regulations as to equipment nj
road rules that apply in every STATE
in the Union.
