there may he a reform.

IL thefe may Dc fetofn,
 New Britainltes who occasionally motor to Hartford have had oeca- sion 10 notice the abandon with which autolsts are permitted 10 cruise along some Of the streets, A week or so ago party of New Brltainites were nearly run down while crossing d street in Hartford, the noar-fatality being due 10 a crazy autoist thinking he had the privilege Of dashing ahead at high speed while aftor.thcntcrgocrs were vending their way to their own cars.
 Hartford consistently has had more accidents than any other Connecticut city; week after week the record of Hartford is mparal- lelei by any other Nutmeg city. New Haven Is completely outdis- tancod; Bridgeport, which gets traffic along the conrcstod Boston Post road to worry its traffic de- partment Is regularly surpassed.
 There Is something remarkably inefficient with the manner in which traffic Is regulated in Hart ford. The regulation seems good on some of the downtown streets, but on others it fig virtually non- existent. It is time for Hartford to wake up to its responsibilities; New Britain residents do not fancy hav- ing their lives unduly endangered every time they take a spin to Hartford.

DANGEROTS CROSSING
 AT SOUTH HIGH

One of the most dangerous corners in the city has been deyel- oped at West Main and South High streets, Since the traffic policemen began officiating at the Center large and growing proportion of automobile traffic from West Main street turns into South High, thence going to Court, In order to avoiI delays and congestion at the Cen 'or, Even q careful autoist cannot urn from West Main into South High and keep to the right side of the road. If another automobile happens to be coming in the op- posite direction the opportunities Tor collision are considerable. Noth- Ing but extreme care can avoid thcm. And some classes of drivers unfortunately are not acquainted with extreme care.
 The suggestion has been made to Inc Herald that the corner could ue widenod, so that automobiles could turn into South High with nrcater degree of safety. But such a wiiening would cost money. The Caldwell residence on the corner weed not be moved for the pur- uose. however, but it might be '.rccssary to decjmatc part of the .>uroundng land and sidewalk if ,uch a street Wilcning at the cor nrr were attempted. The problem raHnot be solved olfhand, but is ~assrd along to the board of pub .n works and other civic authori- .., 10 take in hand when they get round to it. if rrcr ..
 Whether something is done about 4 or whether nothing is done, tue r1ct remains that south High will hrckon 10 motorists in the futuro ven moro than it has so far, Tlo Irtour ID that street and down rourt street offers a handy means ao avoid congestion at the Center, This in itself is sufficient 10 gain .ao favor Of aurot~'s.

srupEBAKER CAR PRICES
One.Prfiot System Makes Reduction
 Possible

studehaker has just announced re dueed prices on all models Reductions range from $50 Co S805. The new prices include all regular equipment on standard six special six and big sx models. except that bumpers. extra tire. cover and motometer are no long CT furnished on big siXes.
 Commenting upon the price reduc ton. an official of the Stakeholder Cor poration of America sasd: "Studehak- CTS one-profit manufacturing system is the direct reason for this reduction in prices. Under this system we man ufacture all vital parts for Stakeholder ears in our own plants. This saves the extra profits which many manufactur- CTS have to pay to outside parts and body makera, We give purchasers the full benefit of these savings in manu- facture.
 "only two automobiles in America are made on this one-profit hasis-the Studehaker In the fine car field and the Ford in the low price field. Only in these two cases does one company in its own plants and with its own cen Itralized organization make all bodies, all engines. all clutches, steering gears. diiferentials, springs, gear sets, lgray.iron castings and drop forglngs.
 With only one manufacturing profit instead of many included in the pur- chase price. Studehaker is able Co build better car and to offer t at a much lower price The public appreciates this fact. Studebaker sales are today rising to new high peak instead of declining. as is usual during the sum mer.
 "The cars on which these new prices are announced are the identical ears which have given Studebaker tremen- doas sales volume. There is no saeri- fee in quality of materials or work manship. We have brought out no new yearly models to sell at new pric- es. It is Studebaker policy to keep our entire line of cars constantly up.to- date without the announcement of yearly models
 "rhe new prices are striking trib- ute to Studehaker's one-profit produc- tion system. Savings made possible 5y this system enabled us Co announce new low prices on January of this year. Now we are able to make fur ther reductions. As result Stude- baker one profit cars today offer great CT values than ever before.
