SUGGESTIONS FOR ACCI-
DENT PREVENTION

Secretary Hoover, in an address
before the National Conference on
street and highway safety, asked for
cooperation of all interests in an eff
fort to reduce the now rapidly in
creasing number of deaths and iniu-
ries due to traffic accidents. He stat
ed that there were $4,000 such deaths
and $4,000 serious injuries last year
and that nearly 80 per cent of the
highway accidents were due to the
automobile.
Here is suggestion for lessening
accidents. In the old days, road
was rounded up like railroad grade
with deep bitches on each side. Prob
ably two teams passed at a pace of
about three or four miles an hour on
every five-mile stretch. Today our
modern highway grades are largely
the same, with strip of pavement
in the center on which scores of au-
tomobiles pass in a mile travelling at
a rate of speed varying from 25 to 45
miles an hour. With good driving,
there are no accidents. Misjudgmeat
one way or another, however, and an
automobile crashes with another cal
or goes in the ditch.
Instead of digging bitches on each
side of the road, use the same labor
and extend the grade and the culvert
coverings from the edge Of the rave
ment at gentle slope to the fence
row on each side In other words,
have the curve Of the road more like
a street. This is possible along 80
per cent of the highways at no addi-
tional expense. Thus is the tendency
for cars to crowd in the certer re-
lieved and consequently the danger
of accidents is lessened.
All the rules, regulations and laws
that can be passed will be Of little or
no avail so long as any man OF wo-
man can buy al automobile one min
ute, step into the state licensing de-
partment and get a permit to drive
the next minute, regardless of his
familiarity with the car, its opera
ton or road rules, as is the case in
some states. No other piece of ma
chinery in the world is operated on
such haphazard basis. The marvel
is that instead of $4,000 deaths a
year, there are not 100000 deaths.
J Remove the cause and you will re-
move the accidents. Intermediary
measures will be useless. Compulsory
automobile insurance, or worse yet,
monopolistic state automobile acct
dent insurance, a suggested remedy,
will simply encourage recklessness,
for it will tend to remove restraint
from an already careless person.

thias Hall, February 10th and 18th.

be the mail box. The contents of the

a few days ago you were investing in
a Hup. Thought 1t might interest
you to know that 1 bought a Hup
last Fall, a Club Sedan. l drove it
to Seattle and on down to Los An
geles and San Diego and back, with
a numerous lot of side trips, a little
over six thousand miles and not a
puncture or any other trouble. Think
it is a mighty good little car for a
four cylinder. Like it better every
day.
Their Fights came out while l was
in Los Angeles last winter. Was
around to see them on the opening
exhibition. If the Fights are as good
as the Four, comparatively, it must
be a mighty good car.
