A Bad Record

Automobiles have two functions.
as we see it. One is the business
held 1t occupies as trucks, busses and
cars used by those who require them
for speedy transportation. The othe,
function is one OF pleasure, the en-
joyment automobiles have added 10
life on earth.
But automobiles are con- ,.vely
new and man, apparently. aas NOT
learned how to use them. In 1923.
for instance, 1900 persons lost their
lives in American automobile acct
dents, 67S.000 were seriously injured
and property to the value OF S600.OOO.-
600 was destroyed. The 1924 figures
are expected to exceed these.
That's war, worse than war. in fac,
II one compares the casualties with
American lives lost during the world
war. Some way we can't be impress
ed with these figures but it is a fact
that the loss OF life and seriously
manned in the United States last year
from automobile accidents totals more
than one third the armed forces the
United States sent to France.
Herbert Hoover is calling a special
national conference to consider tho
problem. But like enforcement of the
law, the entire matter comes back to
the individual. Individual care. in
dividual precauiion alone can prevent
accidents. And the simple. straight
forward fact is that thus far the aver
age American citizen hasn't sense
enough to operate an automobile.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1924-11-28

pabiican party Right in the United
States senate is the place to do I.
Put them at the foot OF the class as
Progressives where they belong and
let them work up on committees
and in senate procedure as members
OF this hopelessly minority party
1t was fear OF that very thing that
kept Borah in line in Idaho. Borah.
with rs years to his credit in the
senate as 4 Republican, could as
easily have returned there as a Pro-
gressive. Idaho voters would have
seen to that. But Borah didn't want
to go that way. He didn't want to
lose those Is years and his committee
standing. He wanted to resume right
where he left off.
There's nice weapon to use when
the need arises. And la Toilette and
Brookhart present that need.

the dream of the new senator thai
some day, by dint OF faithful se-Nice,
he may come to occupy one or these
points. Mr.. Borah can take his choi-e
between them. The administration.
as we'll as the general public, is sure
TO watch with close attention the
choice that he makes. Mr.. Borah
holds so securely the confidence OF
the west that his presence at the head
of one OF these committees will be
almost sufficient to guarantee public
support in large part OF the country
for any policy that may be adopted.
1t is the hope OF this paper that Sen
ator Borah will become chairman oil
the committee on foreign relations
His reluctance to undertake the druid
gerry OF routine office holding IS well
known, and natural. Yet no man with
the high sense of public duty thar
characterizes the senator from Idaho
will allow a reluctance to undertake
unpleasant responsibility to outws'el |
Gems picious opportunity for national
service. Mr. Borah's commanding |
position as a constitutional lawyer, as
debator, and as an interpreter OF
American spirit and institutions is gen.
orally acknowledged. To these must
now be added his distinction as author
OF the most constructive and hopeful
American proposal for the salvation OF
a war-shattered world. Add 10 all
this the political strength he will bring
to the new administration if placed
in a position of such power, and it
will be seen why Mr. Borah's accession
to this particular Craftsmanship might
be accounted an event OF information

While they Pay

Last year the United States and
its subdivisions spent more for high
way construction and maintenance
that any one year OF the World War
cost this country. Staggering, but
true.
What's the use OF automobiles UNI
less we have good roads? What's the
use OF highways unless we have cars?
Now Detroit is talking about a new
highway, l20 miles OF it. Planted
in the center with one way street car
lines on each side, this road is to be.
Then came specially constituted
sections on each side for truck trans
portation. In turn provision is to
be made for passenger cars and then.
outside OF all that, routes for pedes
trains. All paved, mind you. with
the use to which it is to be put bore
in mind in construction.
How much OF that can this coun-
try stand? How much can we pay
for?
Well. we can keep right on build
ing roads and automobiles and trucks
just so long as it pays, measured
either in human happiness or actual
dollars and cents return. Deiroi.
must believe such highway will pay
or they wouldn't build it. Idaho be-
lieves her highways pay or they
wouldn't be built. When. and orly
when, highways fail to justify by that
alone the cost OF construc-
ion, no more will be built. But we
have been recognizing for some time
he "saturation point" in automobile
ownership. 1t hasn't come yet.

Big Business" in Idaho

Purchase of a group OF iead-silver
mines in the Macl.ly district by the
Ford Motor company has a great
significance for Idaho.
Big business" is gradually finding
the intermouniain west. Caught in
the backwash at last Idaho and neigh
boring states on the east are appar-
entity ripe for industrial development
This type OF business passed Idaho
by on its westward career and the
coast states developed first.
Say what you please about ~b;p
business but half dozen concerns
ike the Ford Motor company operat-
ng Idaho can make" the state. They
mean development, cities, markets and
payrolls.
Nor is he Ford concern alone in
recognizing Idaho. General Motors
nave also purchased mining propertv
IN the same district. Kraf, has come
to Pocatello with his tremendous or
ganiza'ion and is almost monopol;z;ng
The cheese industry OF the eastern nar.
OF the Snake River valley. Down IN
Provo, Utah, where coal and ;ro,
meet big blast furnaces arc pouring
smoke into the sky.
The west is at iasi coming into rs
own. Big business" u,;ii h.t. \.
