La Cross Section of the

Schuldt's Court
Read EN- and Weep
By DONALD McDOUGAL.
The New Religion.

The New Religion.
For the first time since his ap-
pointment, we are forced to dis
agree with the traffic director.
We see by the papers that he
thinks Of revoking the permits
of those financially irresponsible
to stand the damage resulting
from accidents due to their driV-
ing"
Were not worrying about his
doing that-he won't. But he
may try it, and that would re-
suit in a mess.
It isn't the financially ire
sponsible driver we want to chase
off the streets-it's the congeni-
tally irresponsible. And they may
may be either rich or poor.
A man who Is wealthy enough
to make financial restitution for.
say, killing small child. or per-
manently Gripping the father of
a family, is rich enough to hire
a lawyer who can prove it
wasn't his fault. If he's congeni
tally irresponsible, he'll do that.
But the poor devil who couldn't
so much as pay for a German
police dog, is pretty likely to
drive carefully.
Unless he's congenitally IRE
sponsible, he can't help visual
izing the fix he'll be in II he
gets stuck for damages. Just
the lawyers bill alone will cut
out all his Sunday trips for the
next year and q half.
Money can do almost anything,
but not quite. Money can't sub
stitute for brains at the steering
wheel Of a machine in heavy
traffic. The director implies that
money can pay for accidents.
But it can't prevent them, and
that's why we cant cooperate
with him on his rich man, poor
man reclassification stunt. 1t
smells too much like Congress-it
has too much Of a lockthe stable
door after. the-mare-is-stolen favor
to it.
Some Fundamental Facts.
We hope the director doesn't
issue any such order. It would
only result in getting a few
thousand poor people in Dutch,
and would have to be rescinded
within a month or two.
There are certain fundamental
facts about the automobile indus
try that the director should con-
slider.
In the United States last year
the automobile industry handled
four times as much passenger
business as all the steam railroads
combined-it handled 100 billion
passenger miles, averaging all the
most reliable estimates.
This years record will be still
greater, II the amount of road
building is any indication.
The mileage Of surfaced roads
to be opened up this year is close
to IS 900 miles-more than 100
miles of new road every working
The Washington times., 1925-05-08

day. That means more cars
and more drivers.
And now the automobile indus
try is going after the freight bust
ness-and getting 1t. That means
still more drivers.
Stand on Sixteenth street near
Scott Circle some morning at quar-
ter to nine and watch the crowds
coming down town. Try to esti-
mate how many people live in the
suburbs and depend on autos to
get them to work.
Then look at the people on top
OF the buses, who wish they
could live in the suburbs and
come to work in q machine, too.
That'n give you an idea of how
many will be doing 1t two or three
years hence. More drivers.
What we're getting at Is that
auto transportation is taking over
larger and larger hunks of the
worlds business every day and
accordingly more drivers are need
cd to handle it. And they can't
all be millionaires.
Every permit that is unneces.
sarily revoked, every driver ruled
off the road tends to gum the
game that much. Only a month
ago we reported case where a
merchant had to make a delivery
at a certain time or run the risk
Of losing q good customer. He
was shy a truck driver and picked
up the first one he found on the
street.-the had to.
The man said he could drive,
and the merchant took his word
for it. He had to do that, too.
Besides, the truck and contents
were insured-his hold on the
customer was not.
The man helped to raise in
surance rates by smashing the
truck and contents-$500 worth
Of crockery ware.
1t won't do to throw out all
the unfortunate individuals whose
training from youth up has been
loose, or who have learned their
driving from irresponsible teach
ers-We'd he wasting too much
good raw material.
What we need is traffic
school where such handicaps can
be overcome, where proper driv-
ing can be taught as a science
Or as a religion, which would
be better.
Then when you need driver
in hurry you can call him in
with the same certainty of de
pendable results that you have
when you call a registered plum
Der, or a physician,
