Called to National Safety Y
: Conference at Washington
Commissioner Babcock Will Offer
Proposal to Discourage Reckless
Driving-Outlines Plans ;

| Summoned to Washington to Pres
ident Coolidge's national conference
on street and highway safety March
1926, Charles M. Babcock, state
highway commissioner, this week ac-
cepted the call and made an advance
statement of ways and means that in
his view will most effectively reduce
| highway dangers to life and property.
Mr.. Babcock advocates
Holding every driver to strict ac-
countability for his conduct on pub
lar courts, and other moves to keep
safety constantly in the minds of
adults and children.
"Repeal many of the so-cal1ed
safety statutes and ordinances which
are falling far short of the mark, put
every driver practically on his own
responsibility for the safety of the
lives and limbs of others and their
property while OH the streets and
highways" said Mr.. Babcock, "and
a big forward step will be taken in a
problem of vital public Importance.
flaws fail because they do not
meet greatly differing conditions and
therefore Go not command general re-
spect and obedience. They unduly
hamper the law-abiding in many in
stances and are paid no heed by the
comparatively small percentage of
drivers they are most intended to
reach. Too many laws-too little OBJ
servance. One universal statute sub
lie thoroughfares- emphasizing indi-
vidual responsibility with a blanket
law carrying heavy penalties for all
infractions of the rights of others or
the public.
Universal adoption of the princi4
pie, among others, that any vehicle
which cannot at all time be brought
to a full stop in the clear space ahead
is being recklessly operated.
Repeal of present regulations, par
ticularly speed limitations, found to
lack necessary flexibility to fit the
large number of situations and tend
ing to create disrespect for law.
Continuation of newspaper pub
licity toward promoting highway safe
ty, Institution of juvenile traffic
courts in schools, stiffening of PEN
alties for RECKLESS minority" in regu-
iect to broad Interpretation and plac-
ing rigid responsibility on the driver
under stiff penalties, if rigidly en-
forced, in my opinion would go fur

therest toward solving the problem
of menaces to highway safety.
"Set speed limitations should first
be wiped out because they cannot be
made sufficiently flexible 20-mile
pace may be more dangerous than a
45-mile rate under other conditions.
Reasonable speed is to be encouraged
both in the interest of safety and
toward reducing traffic congestion. -
Mr.. Babcock declared against lax
enforcement of laws and said that
whatever recommendation may be
reached must carry ample machinery
for rigid enforcement.

Both Willard and Eagle Bend are
handicapped at home because of the
poor playing conditions. The Eagle
Bend team know considerable basket
ball, but is best on a large floor.
Both teams have plenty of eight"
and will give their best.
Alexandria
The Alexandria team defeated
Long Prairie last Friday. This, in a
way, indicates the strength of the
Douglas county basketeers. The
Alex players have been "off color"
the past three weeks and found
themselves in the Long Prairie con-
test, johnson, captain and center was
at his best and he will make bid for
the all-district team having won a
place on it last year. Peterson, Leach,
Peters, Anderson, Osterberg, Weed
and Walters will give good account
of themselves. The Alexandria crowd
will be here in large numbers for the
evening session, and it is expected
they will bring along the school band.
If Alex wins their Friday night game
the local auditorium will never ac-
comodate the crowds that will come
from Alex and Long Prairie for the
Saturday evening game.
~
The tourney will be refereed by
the same official that did such excel
lent work last year. The local fans
were very much pleased with his
work. Referee Garfield comes from
Breckenridge and is the most popular
official in that section of the state.
The games Friday begin at nine
o'clock and ten o'clock a. m. After
noon games start at two o'clock and
three o'clock. The evening session
on both evenings are at 7:30 and
$50. Those that attended last years
tournament will recall the large dele.

cities. 1t is suggested that those de-
string good seats, come early. The
