BLAME NOY|CES FOR
GAIN IN CAR CRASHES

The death rate from motor vehicles
in Great Britain averages one a day.
Evidence indicates that careless driv-
ing by new car owners, who are in
creasing 1000 weekly. is the chief
cause, while carelessness by those who
walk is contributory, especially at
curves in the roads where there are no
sidewalks.

cord with Mr.. Hearst's suggestion,
sees the plan of inestimable benefit
to the nation.
1T is doubtful If there can be found
a person, today. who will offer legiti-
mate objection TO the development and
improvement of our highways. The
question then is merely one of how
and where these highways shall be
built and improved.
FAyORS PLAN.
Personally ] am a firm advocate
Of the plan under which our federal
government is working. co-ordinating
the efforts of the highway commits
sions in our various states, and Civ.
ing financial support out of federal
funds TO these state efforts.
THE federal aid program is the re-
suit of close study on the part OF
highway specialists. II represents the
collective conclusions of the best
brains in America dealing with trans
portation problems. 1t is a good pro
gram and will be extended. | am in
formed, as rapidly as conditions ana
finances permit. These extensions
will require appropriations from Con-
gress, and the members of Congress
reflect the sentiments Of the people in
the sections they represent.
Naturally the question of trans
continental highways is entitled to
and is receiving the utmost considera-
ton. Such highways as the Lincoln
and the Dixie are proving their worth.
They are celebrating the old lines of
sectionalism and making the nation a
vast neighborhood.
PEOPLE MUST BACK 1T.
Il believe with Mr.. Hearst, and /
am sure that all members of the
National Highway Commission will
agree. that we should have more such
highways, and that they should be so
laid out as TO serve all sections of
the country, north, south, east and
west.
IF it accomplishes no other pur-
pose than TO crystalize the sentiment
of our people in a desire to give more
active support to highway work. the
proposal to build three trans-con-
tinental highways, would be of dis
tinct value.
"Such sentiment is essential if VIC
are to insure the continuance of con-
gressional cooperation. But the plan
would lie even more valuable, in my
opinion. If it were coupled with a
suggestion that all of the people get
solidly behind the federal aid program
as the most direct means Of attaining
the ends advocated.
america is making rapid strides
in its highway development work. Its
progress in this direction has been
remarkable, for there was no proceed
ent for il to follow. Its early eff
forts were costly because they re-
ouired much erneriment

Deny Co,o Garlic
To Improve Milk,
y. S. Experts Urge

The perp1exing question of how
to eliminate the flavor of garlic
from cows milk, long puzzling
the dairy interests. has at last
been solved by experts of the
Bureau of Dairying of the De-
partment of Agriculture.
The solution was quite easy.
judging from a bulletin just issued
by the department. 1t is simply
don't let the cows eat garlic.
THE only practical way to pre-
vent the appearance of this flavor
and odor in milk in regions where
the weed infests pastures is to
keep the cows from eating the
plant" to quote the official report.
The report indicates, also. that,
not content to eat the odorous
ration, the cows reyel in inhalinE
the invigorating aroma therefrom.
Ten minutes of such inhalation, it
is pointed out, is sufficient to give
a strong flavor and odor to the
milk. The flavor appears one
minute after eating the weed, it
was found.

BOSTON SYMPHONY.

A program which should reveal 10 particular advantage the manifold qualities of its new leader is to be presented by the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Serge Koussevitzky at the Capitol theater, Hartford, to- morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. The principal number on the program will be Tchaikowsky's Fifth Sym phony in E Minor. The truly mag nificent and deeply moving interpre- tation of this great score by Kousse- vitzky on the occasion of a Pension Fund concert in Boston last Decem- Der proved an outstanding event in the very remarkable Symphony sea- son.
 Koussevitzky will begin the con- cert with Concert for Orchestra in D Major, for string orchestra, by Philip Emanuel Bach, the most tall ented son of J. s. Bach. The score was edited by Maxmilian Steinberg The reading reveals Koussevitzky' peculiar power of revivifying the so- called classics.' Berlioz' Roman Carnival" overture is chosen from the program of Koussevitzky's American debut last October. Two Russian numbers of particular charm are also to be played. The Prelude to "Khovantchina," by Moussorgsly, and "The Flight oi the Bumble Bee" a Scherzo from I'Rimsky-Korsakov's fairy opera Tear Saltan." These pieces have been introduced to our public by the Russian leader.
 Seats and ,loges are now on sale at Sedgwick & Casey's music store 139 Asylum street. The man. agement earnestly requests that patrons be seated by 3 o'clock, al no one will be seated during the progress of a number.

PARSONS, HARTFORD.

There is certain finish to Mar garet Dale's performance in The Best People" which the Charles Frohman company will present at Parsons theater, beginning Monday, February 2, for three days, with matinee on Wednesday, a sort of surety and carefully balanced pre- cision that leaves one with feel ing of complete satisfaction. Here, one feels, is an actress who has learned the technique of her aft, a player who combines intelligence with good taste, and the result is that quality of acting which is of the best that our theater produces.
 It is not because the character she portrays is an excellent study of a certain type of American social leader that draws attention to that part-we have seen Margaret Dale in more important roles-but rather that here is an actress who has had i an excellent and thorough training | on the stage, and one who knows how to supply her fund of experi- ence to whatever character may be assigned to her.

'SMOLDERING FIRES AN ORIGINAL STORY
Movie PhOtOplay for Pauline
 FTederiCk'S Talents

The Capitol will offer five high grade vaudeville attractions as the features next week in coniuction with the photoplay "Smoldering Fires" for the first three days of the week. Topping the Keith show is "A Romance of Romany." Love and Romance should be one and the same thing. They are when that love is Louis Love and the romance is a romance in Romany. MT. Love with company of five associates includ- ing Jean Spence offers a singing and dancing revue called "A Romance of Romany," The company is really a sextette, there being three men and three women whose dancing and songs are lighted by unusual effects. Other acts will include Donahue and Morgan in "The Long and Short of It.; Booth and Nina in "A Twen- tieth Century Novelty; Arthur Mill Ter in a conglomeration of new songs and stories; and Meino, Lizette and kokin in a nifty variety offering.
 ''The bigger they are the harder they fall," is an aphorism of the prize ring.
 "The older they are the harder they fall" is the conversation of the aphorism that might be used to aphorize "Smoldering Fires" Uni versal- Jewel Clarence Brown pro duction to be shown in the Capitol theatre comencing Monday. Pauline Frederick and Laura La Plante are co-starred in the picture, and the reference to aphorisms will be understood when it is learned that Miss Frederick takes the part of a middle-aged woman, who after years devoted solely to business af- fairs falls in love with q youth half her age, and, to return to the Ver- nacular, falls hard!
 Malcolm McGregor has the lead- ing role in the picture and others prominently cast are Fully Marshall. Wanda Hawley, Helen Lynch, and George Copper. .

During the entire history of her brilliant career Miss Keane has had but one opportunity to play an American woman on the stage. In her long triumph in Romance" she portrayed an Italian prlma donna.

"Yess of the D'UrberViles, J
 ''RecOil, !" ''Yhe Early Bird'

Another big double feature bill for Thursday, Friday and Saturday
 of next week is scheduled at the
 l.yceum theater, while the program for the first half of the week-brlngs one of the strongest of photoplays,
 '"Tess of tho D'Urbervilles." Sunday
 nights usual two feature program will be again presented. One of the pictures gives Eva Novak and Will liam Fairbanks starring parts in 'Women First" race track thrill CT: while the other introduces Will liam (Bill) Mix in dashing west ern, Reckless Riding Bill" The usual selected comedies and news reels are shown at each perform ance and the last half of the week brings the second installment of the Benny Leonard series.
 His greatest picture! That is what many people have termed Marshall Neilan's picturization of the novel ''Tess of the D'Urbervilles. The performance of Blanche Sweet, as the unhappy and ill-fated Tess, sur passes even her work in Anna Christie" Conrad Nagel is a fault less Angel Clare and Stuart Holmes
 as Alec D'Urberville is typical vil- lain. The exteriors of this picture were taken in England in the actual locations described by Hardy when
 he wrote the book. ..,
 "The Early Bird" with Johnny Hines, is an amazingly funny pie ture and suits the star to nicety for it gives him one of those charac- ter roles that he always is so anxious
 to play. In this picture he has a comedy part, that of a milkman, and around this is woven the come- dy. Edmund Breese also has big part in this picture.
 Rex Beach, who writes storits of the most griping sort, is the author of "Recoil," and as the leading
 woman in this thrilling story Betty Blythe never was more charming The settings also add to the enter- taining qualities of the picture since they include Monte Carlo, Deauville
 and other of Europe's famous re-
 sorts. The tale itself is of an Amer
 ican girl enmeshed in the silken
 web of Europe's gilded pleasure
 haunts where beauty goes to the
 highest bidder. The story has a
 mysterious twist to it that employes
 the use of clever detective and
 included in the cast is Fred Paul
 Mahlon Hamilton, Ernest Hiiliard
 and Olive Brook.
