Ruling to Remember.

When you have been unfairly
charged by an officer for failure to
have your operators license with you
and provided such failure to comply
with the law was an unfortunate
accident on your part-it is we'll to
recall a decision recently handed
down by a Washington traffic court
judge relating to a similar case. II
your car is not moving at the time
the officer raises the point the arrest
is illegal. This gives the motorist a
chance to go and get his license or
hire driver to take him home, or
with the law.

Not a Square Deal.

From Life.
Little Kate had been to church for
the first time. and on her return
grandfather asked what she thought
of it. II like it very much" she re-
piled. but there was one thing 1
didn't think was fair" What was
that, dear?" why one man did all
the work, and then another man cam,
round and got all the money"

TRY This Some Time.

Your difficulty in avoiding holes in
the road may be due to the fact that
you don't actually know just how ac-
curate you are with your steering.
TO check up on this. drop a cigarette
box on the road and try to crush it
squarely with either one of the front
wheels. You'll be surprised to find
that you usually miss it by several
inches.

the subgrade. Since the capillary
action varies in different soils. and
since frequently soils vary so greatly
in short length of a road, ii is i'm
portant that material of least capil-
larry action should be selected to make
up the top surface of the subgradeing."

man life that is lost. The driver of
the car should remember this. He
should think Of the responsibility that
is upon his shoulders. In fact in
most grade crossing accidents it is
the driver of the car that should be
sued, instead of the railroad COM
pany who employs the engineer.
In The interest of public safety
many cities, towns and villages have
ordinances which restrict the speeu
of trains within their corporate linn
its, sometimes to eight miles per hour,
but you never hear of an ordinance
which places any restriction upon the
speed of motor vehicles approaching
and passing over railroad crossings
though trains are a public utility anu
motor vehicles are not. To be con,
sistent, should not the motor vehicle
driver, for his own protection and the
protection of those riding with him,
be restricted by ordinance from rae
ing into the face of disaster at rail-
road crossings? If a "Stop, Look
and Listen ordinance were made
general the grade crossing problem
for the public and the railroads would
be solved and the nation would annu-
ally have to its credit the saving of
thousands of funerals and cripples
, and millions Of dollars.

thousands of dollars for having that
train reach the crossing at the same
time that the occupants of the car
reached it, says Fred M. Metcalfe, SUI
perintendent of safety section, North
ern Pacific railway.
According to most accidents at
grade crossings, it is thought by the
relatives of the killed and injured that
an engineer, when he approaches a
crossing, should stop his train, look
for oncoming automobiles, ring his
bell three or four minutes, and then
proceed to cross.
But juries and judges are begin
ming to see that the moral responsible
ity for most accidents rests ~squarely
upon the highway travellers who,
warned by road signs, danger signals,
whistles from the engineer ETC., are
either in too much of a hurry, have
too much hooch under their belts, OF
are too careless to exercise just good
common sense when about to drive
Gro railroad tracks.
But forgetting about who is to
blame and who must pay, it usually
is the passengers of the car the driver
is driving that get killed or wound
ed instead of the passengers the en-
gineer is hauling. All the money il
the world will not bring back a hu

selves.
''The critics of the great progress
sive movement in the west describe it
as a temporary period of unrest. Any
concrete or constructive remedy for
this situation is defined as radicalism
or ridiculed as a foolish panacea. They
never fail to end their discussion with
denunciation of the alliance of the
farmers and laboring people as un-
holy, ill-advised and vicious. In an
swer, 1 say that agriculture has al
ways been exploited by the middle
man in our economic organization.
He said that in 1912 the farmer re-
ceived six billion dollars for his prod
Ucts, but that the consumer paid thir-
teen billion dollars for them.
81 visited Is countries in Europe
and found crops everywhere better
than last year, and very much better
in Russia. l also found the purchas-
ing power Of the people of Europe Is
reduced because of the Ruhr invasion
and the consequent unemployment in
England and Germany. The ~speculat-
ors know of these facts and have
beaten the price down accordingly
but have concealed them from the
farmers as much as possible, fearing
from them a demand for an extra ses-
| sion of congress. As o as I re-
turned l made such a demand broad
cast to the country, and the press
says it will not be needed by the
president"
Senator Brookhart then stated thar
the price of the farmers products
owing to about II per cent of then
being exported, is fixed by the com
petitive markets of the world. "Thi
! is not fair" he said. "The farmel
is entitled to charge for his product
sold at home at the cost of productio,
and a reasonable profit. This ca
only be done as to the present Gro.
by a government marketing agenc
that will bid such a price to the farm
ers. The tariff should prevent com
petition from abroad under these Gil
~cumstances, the same as it does j
steel. The only loss then under sue
an operation would be from the SUI
plus sold abroad, which would not b
very great"
The speech was the first of a sci
les that Senator BroOkhart has prom
:, ised to deliver in his efforts to haV
the president call an extra session.

LUTHERAN JUBILEE

More than $50 churches throughout
the Ministerium of Pennsylvania will
celebrate the 175th anniversary of this
Mother Ministerium of Lutheranism
in America with a Jubilee Service on
Trinity Sunday. On that occasion the
congregations will stress "the impor-
lance of and the benefit in being iden-
titled with the Ministerium."
These local celebrations will be sub
sidiary to the great celebration in
Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, Pa,
the first week in June, upon which the
attention of Lutherans throughout the
country has been focused.
When the Ministerium celebrated
it's 15Oth anniversary in Philadelphia,
in 1898, it had 337 ministers, sos con-
~gregations and 49, 23 communicates.
Statistics for 1922 gave the Minister
ium 42S ministers, 354 parishes, STA
congregations, and a baptised member
ship of 24S, 671. The total benevolence
of these congregations last year
