have safety courses" as a part of their regular studies. Debates. dis cussions, lectures and drills mark
 the efforts to install in the minds of
 the pupils the necessity for caution and care upon the public highways. The state and local education and health boards contribute to these programs by supplying material for studying and many teachers give in struction and drill beyond the pre- scribed courses.
 Newspapers Of the state, CO., operating with all agencies by giving publicity to safety programs, have also done much, in the opinion of Commissioner Stoeclel. to make this years low record possible. The work of private and civic organiza- tions for the most part has been quietly done. but has taken many forms. For example, truck associa- tions, composed of owners or drIv- CTS. or both, have safety discussions as a part of their regular meetings.

Little Girls Cry for Parents
 Who Were Murdered

kasha Tadla, Morocco, Nov. IS P-Seventy- weight little sacks con- taining 100000 francs in gold (s4O0,OG0) were in the hands of Moorish brigands in the snow cover ed middle Atlas Mountains today and the six persons whom the gold ransomed were back in civilization recovering from their experiences during months captivity.
 Two of the ransomed prisoners, the nine and eleven years old Ar maud girls, looking pale and tired, with their feet bleeding, stumbled over the mountain passes to Aguen- nous and were turned over to the French protectcrate officers, una ware that the Moors had murdered their parents.
 Where are our father and moth er?" the little girls asked when they reached French headquarters. Their parents had been murdered when the children Were abducted but the children had been told that they had returned home. The girls are to be the guests Of Mme. Theodore Stceg. wife of the French resident general, at Rabat, until their future may be assured.

AU70 DEATH RATE
 SHOWS DECLINE
1927 Figures First to Fall Oif
 in Five Years

Hartford, Nov. 1S-The motor vehicle accident and death rate in Connecticut will show a decrease in 1927 for the first time in five years. according 10 present indications, not Withstandiug that in the first ton months there was at least one acci- dent for every thirteen cars register ed in the state. Motor vehicle de partment records show that this is below the 1926 and 1925 rates, when there was an accident for every eleven cars using the high ways.
 Fatality rates thus far this year have been in the proportion of one death for every 1,05O cars in use This is q measurable improvement over 1926 when there was an acci- dental death for every S2S cars, and over 1925 where there was one death. for every 7S5 cars.
 The personal inquiry rate has not shown a!s much improvement as the general accident and death rates. This year there has been one person injured for every thirty cars in use. A better record was made in 1925 when one person was injured for every thirty-two cars registered. However, 1927 figures promise i'm provement over the 1926 rate, which vas one injury for every twenty eight cars.
 Accident ratios, according to pop ulation, while not truly indicative of conditions, also show some improve ment by reason of reduction. Tn 1925 the rate was one person h. iured for every 1S9 in the state, and one person killed for every 4240. This rate decreased in 1926 to one in every 157 injured, and one death for every 4.646 Of population. A further decrease is looked for this year because of the figures for the ten months which show that only one in every 151 persons was injured and one in every 5,616 killed.
 Much of the credit for the reduced casualty rates is given by Commis- sionor Robbins F, Stoeckel to the agencies responsible for the increas- cd study of traffic conditions and safety measures in schools, the edu- cational work of private organiza- tions, and the unceasing vigilance and efforts Of state and municipal

A Curtis Hawk dropped out of
the haze and dipped in salute over the
Memphis. More planes appeared,
singly, in pairs and threes, each
paying its respects to Colonel Lind
bergh alone or in formation.
A dark spot in the sky far to the
eastward proved to be Is army planes.
They were from Langley field, under
Colonel G. G. Culver. Five groups
of five planes, each group in v

Swinging down on the Memphis and

Lkehurst dded their grey bodies to
the scene Each passed over the
cruiser from stern to bow, then drew
aside.
AS the ships neared Cape Henry
speed was no longer of moment and
the Memphis lolled along at about
nine knots. After she had passed
through the capeS and headed up for
washington, the planes quit the
scene in the formations in which they
arrived, the army craft returning to
Langley field and the navy "busSes"
,scurrying to their Hampton Road
hangers.

convoy well on their way up the

President Coolidge will welcome Col.

people and before another sun has

.I wonder if I really deserve all
this" was the remark of Colonel
Charles Lindbergh to Vice Admiral
Burrage as he stood on the bridge
of the Memphis this afternoon and
watched his escort of four United
States deStroyers swing into position
to accompany him triumphantly on
the last lap of his journey homeward.
The destroyer escort was sighted
this afternoon some distance off the
Virginia capes and the four vessels
swung into position soon afterward.
Colonel Lindbergh, hatless and with
hair towsled by the wind, stood on
the bridge and watched the swift
craft maneuver.
"It is a great and wonderful sight
and I wonder if I really deserve all

WOMAN ADMITS
STRUGGLE FOR
GUN OF DEATH

SAN DIEGO, Calf, June 10 R).-
''Don't worry, darling everything will
be alright. Don't tell" were the last
words spoken by Clarence M. Blymire
to his wife, Hilda F. Blymire, swore on
the witness stand today, the trial in
which she is charged with her hus-
bands murder. These parting words
we're whispered by the wounded man,
she said, just before VAC ambulance
arrived to take him to the naval hos
pital, where he died some hours later.
Held by the police on suspicion of hav-
ing fired the fatal shot, the young wife
never saw her husband again.
Taking the witness stand in her own
behalf after the prosecution concluded
it's case at noon today, Mrs. Blymire
told the story of the quarrel which
eliminated, she swore, in a struggle
for the revolver in her husbands hand
In that struggle the weapon was dis
charged and the bullet took effect in
the mans side.
did you shoot your husband?"
asked Attorney Harden, of defense
counsel, who was conducting the ex-
animation, and Mrs. Blymire answered
in firm. and emphatic voice: mo"
did you try to shoot him?" asked
counsel and with equal firm1less and
emphasis she again gave a negative
reply.
The story of the fatal shooting was
brought out in series of questions bJ
counsel with marked pauses between
each question to give the woman time
to control her emotions.
Blymire, a chief petty officer in the
United States navy, hao returned from
a cruise some hours in advance of the
time expected, Mrs Blymire testified.
She had gone to Tijuana in company
with Mr. and Mrs. Carter Returning
to her apartment, admittedly under
the influence of liquor, she found ner
husband waiting. "He took me in
his arms, said, Hello, darling, and
kissed me-" the witness said. "Then
he asked: Have you been drinking?'
I told him I had. Where did you get
it?' he asked, and I told him in Ti-
juana. What - took you to Ti-
juana?' he demanded. and I told him
had gone with the Carriers"
Her further direct testimony was to
the effect that as they quarreled Bly,
mire secured a revolver and that in
the course Of struggle the gun was
accidentally discharged, wounding Bly,
lnire so seriously that he died a few
hours later.
examination of Mrs. Blymire
was opened by District Attorney Clark
and had not been completed wher
court adjourned at o'clock until 10
O'Clock Monday morning
