IMPROVEMENTS
New Station at TottenviIIe
and Prince Bay-Altera-
tons at Pleasant Plains

D TOTTENVILLE, Aprh IA
new station at T~ottenville and an
other at Prince Bay is said to be
part of the plan of Improvements
along the Tottenville division Of the
Staten Island Rapid Transit this
summer is the report being heard
at these places. Alterations have
already been started at Pleasant
Plains and an addition is being built
on the waiting room which 1t is
said will conform with the
recent complaint of the Prince Bay
Woman's Club for the u~nsanitary
condition of the toilets at the Prince
Bay and Pleasant Plains stations.
The addition at the latter station Is
six feet long extending the entire
width of the waiting room. This
Awill be used for both the mems and
women's rooms.
The South Shore Protective Assoc
citation took the matter up and call
ed the attention of the Rapid Tran
sit and the Board of Health to the
situation at both these stations and
sthe result Is that work has been
started at Pleasant Plains and a new
station is contemplated at Prince
Bay.
Passengers at the Tottenyille sta
ton have complained recently Of
the inadequacy of the waiting room
proper and the ladies' room and this
has given rise That a new station
would be built on the site of the
present structure which was built
about twenty-five years ago when
the line was extended from Main
street to Bentley street. No con-
frfnation of either of the new build
ings could be made. Railroad Off
Gals have been at the local station
several times recently coming down
from st. George in the superinten-
dents private a to look over the
situation. The increasing traffic by
train and boat is believed to be the
outcome of the proposed new i'm
provements.

earlier in the season it would be, but
according TO old cotton growers, it is
very good and has placed great deal
of money in circulation in this part
Of the state.
With the advance in price those
who will have late cotton will make
about as much money as the ones who
were first on the market and received
70 cents a pound for their lint. The
gins and buyers here will pay "A cents

of the best posted men on cotton in

Some few growers who are in a fl

their crops in Houston. and say they
will get 30 cents for it.

ENGLAND AGITATED
OVER INCREASE IN

Motorists as Dangerous as

Copyright. by The San Antonio Light.
London, Aug. 18.--Popular agita-
ton is mounting in England with
extraordinary rapidly on the subject
Of motor accidents. The public is
astounded and ansered by the terribi,
record of deaths through reckless driv-
ing during the last fortnight. Six
children were killed in eight days in
one small town.
1t is plain to everybody that drastic
action is necessary to check the in
creasing peril to pedestrian traffic
everywhere. In the first quarter of
this year in London alone there were
nearly $4,000 accidents of various
kinds. Prohibitionists will be interest
ed TO know that it is seriously sug-
gested that no licenses be issued 10
motorists who refuse to sign the pledge
of total abstinence. This suggestion is
too fantastic for the British tempera
ment 10 adopt, but the government
will be unable to resist the power of
the demands that it impose severe pen.
altles on motorists who treat other
road users with contempt.
Practical proposals are that drivers
convicted of recklessness be heavily
fined and that their motor cars be
confiscated; and that drunken motor
lists be sent to Jail without option of
a fine and be deprived forever of theif
licenses to drive.
At the present time in large towns
motorists are as dangerous to human
life as air bombers were during the

About 90 per cent of fires which

by a short circuit in the electrical
