NEW YORK. November 15.-The

however, in the opinion Of Mr.. Edison,

but the human being will become suf-

The roofs Of buildings, now gener-
ally unused says Mr.. Edison will, in

the air, be converted into landing
fields. This will bring on an era of
new catastrophes, he foresees, but
believes even this will not present the
general use of aircraft.
The loss Of acute hearing fOreseen
by Mr. Edison will be a benefit rather
than a handicap, to the city dweller,
he believes. He points to his own
almost total deafness and says it has
given him steady nerves which even
the greatest noise of the cities can
not jar.
Government of American cities by
expert executives, he points out, Will

that when American cities tackle the

One of the most delightful spots in

the corner of which is the grave of one
of the greatest men that ever lived.

dynasty of the magnificent Moguls.
This shrine is a place of pilgrimage

from all parts of central Asia 1t was
in this garden or just such another,
says Mr. Lowell Thomas, that Baber
made his plans TO lead his Tartar
horsemen and burly nomads down to
the rich plains of Panipat, near Delhi,
where he fought one of the most de-
cisive battles of Asia in 1926. Such
colossal booty fell into his hands that
he was able to give $4,000 to each of
his chief officers. and corresponding
rewards in silver and rare silks to
everyone not only in his army but in

the main highway, has brought about
more safe condition than existed at
this time last year. According to the
State Police there are still some driv-
ers who dash across the main high
way at a fast clip, and which is
violation of the law, but that reason
able and safe drivers usually stop or
slow up so that they have their car
in control.
Particular attention is being paid
this spring to the handling of motor
trucks engaged in the transportation
of freight. These trucks are weighed
everytime they enter Delaware or
traverse the State and the speed at
which they may travel is marked on
the car when the weight of the load
it has is known. For illustration,
truck with load weighing $4,000
pounds is limited to 25 miles an hour
and this is marked on the drivers
permit. The increasing volume Of
freight being transported by motor
truck is being carefully supervised by
the State Highway Policemen in order
to eliminate accidents.
There is one young man who was
sent to the Workhouse last week on

According to Chief Reynolds the

ers who had no business to be on the
highway and in charge of a car be-
cause they had been imbiding some
thing stronger than what the Vol
stead Act permits. According to the
Superintendent Of State Police, the
drunken driver menace is a sort of
periodical offense. They are not to
be found on the highway every day in
the week or every week, SO far as
reckless driving of car indicates.
They seem to appear now and then,
usually on Saturdays and Sundays
and are not considered this year, as
much Of menace as they have been
in other years. This may be due,
officials believe to the rigid way in
which intoxicated drivers are being
dealt with in Delaware.
Excessive speed which constitutes
reckless driving in an inexperienced
motorist, is the cause of most con

R. IL. u. CALLS
FOR SUPPORT TO
BRITISH MINERS
Asks Funds Be Sent and
Coal Stopped
Especial to The Daily wOrksr)

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., June 8. -
The Red international Of Labor
Unions has addressed the following
appeal to all its afiliated organiza-
tions and to the workers of all coun-
tries.
despite the treachery of the right
leaders and the capitulation of the
left leaders in the general council, the
strike of the British miners is being
continued. A united front of the whole
British bourgeoisie, the British gov
ernment, its whole administrative ap-
paratus and those same trade union
leaders who to please the bourgeoisie
throttled the united front of the work
ers, is attacking the miners.
"All honest workers in Great Britain
who value class solidarity above
everything are on the side OF the
miners. We know that the Communist
Party Of Great Britain, the National
Minority Movement are working with
all possible forces for the miners, we
know also that many many workers
who stand outside these organizations
will work with them for the assistance
of the miners.
How. however, Is the situation out
side Great Britain? The Amsterdam
md the Miners Internationals have
stopped their action of support before
they even properly began with Il. Is
II possible that the British miners
stand alone in their struggle? No! The
r. l. L. u. and all its affiliated organ
izations will continue their support
action for the British workers. The
cause OF the British workers is our
cause.
Working men and working women!
To leave the British miners TO the
mercies Of the bourgeoisie would be
treachery! To permit coal and other
combustible substances to go to Great
Britain now would be scabbing. To
stop the collections now when over a
million miners are still fighting, would
be a tremendous blow 70 the idea OF
class solidarity The miners OF Great
Britain are continuing their struggle.
Let us work 60 a man TO assist our
British brothers~
