Secretary OF Commerce Hoover
chairman of The National Confer
epce for Street and Highway Safety
Aeld recently in Washington.
This prop CSal was offered By
Fred w. JoEnson, OF Philadelphia,
$50 is known as the father of
SpsfSty first" He is probably the
earliest pioneer in the safety move
meut in this country. In the coz
ference. which had been called by
President Coolidge and was attend
ed by representatives from every
safe in the Union, his was the only
voice that ehampionod the driver.
While admitting the deficiencies
c. many drivers. Mr.. Johns$n also
pointed to the manufacturer OF the
automobile. whom he declared was
also partially responsible for the
present hazard of the highways. In
urging the establishment of a
safety Board OF Control" to en-
courage the manufacture OF fool
~-oos cars" Mr.. johnson suggested
that II be composed of manufac-
~-Irers or heir representatives.
In proposing his new approach
TO the solution of the highway

automobile manufacturers have a
direct responsibility to their patrons

driver has a right 20 expect the

1T is g serious question whether
manufacturers in the past have

maE.Ifacturer's Responsibility
over a period OF years our mo-
Tor car manufacturers have stressed |
comfort, convenience. roominess, |
high speed, low gas cost, beauty OF |
design. luxurious fittings, low op- |
rating cost and durability. Little |
thought seems TO have been given |
20 the safety factor alone.
"On the contrary, every effort has
-een made by individual manufac-
turers to stimulate purchasing by
Ipeed tests and cther enterprises
which for years have stressed most
prominently the very factor which
has destroyed many thousands OF
lives each year and inflicted griev-
Gus injuries upon countless other
thousands.
The situation is fortunate in
that the interest Of business is also
the interest OF humanity. There is
40 conflict. The manufacturer de-
sires that his customer shall receive
value for lis monsy. But can one

Safety Board of Control
and Stronger Auto
Bodies Are Urged

."BOARD OF SAFETY
CONTROL" to urge the
construction of safer
automobiles and aid in
reducing the accident
rate was proposed to
Imperial Valley press., 1926-07-24

Alongside these superfluous devices
which must continual? be kept in
order are now functioning more ef-
ficient methods which railway Of
ficials declare are responsible for
the low accident rate at present.
Imperial Valley press., 1926-07-24

We must take n leaf from tho
experience OF the railroads and
adopt entirely steel construction OF
automobiles just as this type of
construction has been adopted for
railway coaches. The steel con-
struction permits much smaller
windshield posts and at the same
time provides protection when ac-
cidcnts are unavoidable. for they
sometimes are unavoidable. Steel
Will not splinter or burn. and it
takes n great force TO crush IL.
All-steei BUiy Important
THE all-steel body is one OF the
most important considerations in
max Ing automobiles safer. The
problem of efficient brakes is also
important. Brakes should b. de-
signed TO require as little adjusting
as possible and should be adequate
for all emergencies. The larger
the surface OF the tire on the road
the greater the braking capacity.
There are innumerable other
details, all OF which have uneir spe-
cific importance. The steering gear
should respond quickly and easily.
Badly worn tires should never b..
used on the front wheels Many
types OF bumpers are dangerous.
They should all be a standard
height from the road so they xill
not overlap and hook. or In the
case of many used today. catch the
clothes OF pedestrians who pass too
close 10 the rear. The intensity OF
headlights should be limited within
the bounds of actual needs for
moderate driving and should be
uniform all over the country
These problems are -; within
the power OF the manufacturer 10
solve. The legislatures also have
the power and can force them ar.
hitrarally upon the automobile n.
dustry s5ould 1t fail to meet the
'nccds. But In this II would BE- an
expensive burden upon the MANI
facturers because OF meeting the
various ununiforrn requirements"

STUDIES IN
ECONOMICS BASED
ON EXPERIENCE

New York.-The study of economics
from textbooks has been partly
abandoned by Columbia College.
Actual experience will be the source
from which students will learn these
principles.
working material for the course
may be contributed by the students
themselves from conditions they find
among their friends and in their fam
lilies or local communities" said Will
liam E. Weld, associate professor of
economics. Readings in regular text
books are assigned, but we give stu
dents no guarantee that he will find
the answer to his problem in them.
mot only are the students more
alert under this plan of study, but
they are learning more about actual
conditions in the world"

CLOAK MAKERS
Strike to ReOrganize Indus
try

Detroit.-The strike of 100000 New
York cloak makers is an attempt to
reorganize that industry, Delegate
Nagler, of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union told the A..
F. of L. convention.
"Our New York contest is not for
an additional dollar in our weekly
wage, or for an hour off the work
day. 1t is an attempt to reorganize
the industry and put it on such a
basis that our members will know who
their employers are," Mr.. Nagler
said.
cat least rs per cent of our people
work under a jobbing system where
weekly earnings are not secure. They
work for contractors who have moth
ing to say about the adjustment of
differences between them and the
workers.
"The chief executive of the state of
New York appointed a committee to
study our industry. The commission
stated that if the present situation
continues the industry will be dcmor-
allied"

HIGHWAYS GRAB
By Railroads Baked By
Pennsy Governor

Harrisburg, Pa.-Charging that a
majority of the state public service
commission are completely dominat-
ed by the public utilities" Governor
Pinchot refused to approve charters
for bus companies organized by the
Pennsylvania and the Reading rail
roads. The charters were approved
by the commission.
"The charters do not, on their face,
disclose their actual Intention" the
governor said. "They are the opening
wedge in handing the highways over
to the railroads. The history of sim
liar cases demonstrates beyond ques-
tion that competing lines would be
crushed or purchased with increased
charges to the public), that the rail
roads would absorb them as they did
the canal, and that the formation of
a railroad bus and truck line monopoly
would scarcely even be retarded"

SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT
Proposed in A. F. of L. ResO-
luton to Wage War on
Company Unions"

By international Labor News Service.
Detroit, Mich.-One of the most
important measures yet taken by
American labor in the battle against
the company union" is proposed in a
resolution introduced in the American
Federation of Labor convention here
by Vice President Matthew Woll and
Fred Ballbach, and known to have the
support of President Green.
This resolution empowers the ex-
ecutive council ito levy special
assessment or contribution" on affil-
lated organizations "to such an
amount and under such conditions and
regulations as will create an ade-
quate fund"
The officers are left free to deter
mine how much money shall be raised
and what form the campaign shall
take.
For the first time, under the terms
of this resolution, the fight to abolish
company unions" and put industrial
freedom and voluntary association
in trade unions in their place will be
financed by money not taken from the
always slender funds of the American
Federation of Labor.
Moreover, the company union"
is thus placed in the list of major
issues even more definitely than it
was by the address of President Green
in opening the convention, when he
devoted most of his time to that
pressing issue.

WORKING STAFF
For Union Life Insurance
Company Being
Organized

Washington, D. C.-With the $780,
600 goal met and passed by COM
Portable margin, The Union Labor
Life Insurance Company, under direc-
tion of President Matthew Woll, is
rapidly getting affairs into shape for
opening of business about January 1,
a little more than two months hence.
President Woll has been in the
headquarters office here this week, be-
ginning the work of organizing staff
for the company. 1t necessary i'm
mediately to engage medical, actuarial
and clerical forces and to<prepare pol
icies.
Stock subscriptions continue to
come in and in larger quantity than
ever. This is especially true of in
dividual subscriptions. "It is desir-
able to impress upon all who wish to
join in this enterprise that the books
will be closed before we begin busi-
ness, and after that no more stock
can be sold. Those who want to buy
stock ought to act Immediately, SO as
to avoid disappointment
"After the books are closed stock
can be had only by transfer from
some owner of stock, and there are
not likely to be many owners who
will want to give up their holdings" !"
In this connection the case of the
Federation Bank of New York is cit
ed. When the books were closed prior
to the opening of the bank it was
found that much money had to be re-
turned to would-be subscribers be-
cause the capital was oversubscribed.
There is today long waiting list of
can be had by transfer from present
owners.
Large subscriptions are coming in
at headquarters in the American Fed
Grafton building, but more interesting
than that is the growing number of
individuals who are seeking stock. 1t
iS IIe ucSIIe OI tIle COIHpdily IHdC
there be as many small holders as
possible SO that interest in the COM
pany and activity in its affairs may be
as wide spread as possible. 1t is the
desire of the officers that The Union
Labor Life Insurance Company be in
the widest sense an American labor
institution, with the widest possible
degree of ownership.
But, it is emphasized, in the words
of President Woll, "those who do not
act quickly will find themselves acting
too late The fault will be theirs.
The books must be closed on a cer-
tain date, and we cannot sell single
share of stock after that date"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1926-11-05

advantages of this company, but the
matter of success is contagious.
There will be a brief opportunity yet
for the purchase of stock"
1t was announced that the board
of directors, in their meeting here,
authorized the officers to proceed at
once to engage staff. This includes
actuarial men, medical staff and all
personnel needed for the conduct of
business.
Stock sales have proceeded rapidly
here, and reports from the home office
indicate that subscriptions continue
to come in there in volume. That
the closing of the books will find
many unable to get the holdings they
desire seems probable.
