HIGHWAY DANGER SIGNS

(Henry Good, former member
Of the State Highway commission,
contributes some valuable sugges-
tions concerning highway mark
ings).
Just a few words in regard to
placing more danger signs on our
county and state highways.
At the present time there are
no uniform danger signs on our
county and state highways and
from the amount of accidents that
have occurred in u state. it
seems to me there should be some
organized effort to prevent at
least a portion of the automobile
accidents.
1t seems a large number of &C
cidents occur on curves and road
crossings on account of lack of
danger signs. I think the State
Highway commission and the
different boards Of county COM
m~issioners should designate all
.arterial highways, placing signs
on a~rterial highways, stating,
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1929-01-11

Gross Road 800 feet Ahead
| Also there should be stop signs
on all cross roads where the
same cross any arterial highway.
These should be placed about 100
feet from all arterial highways.
think all such signs should be
of steel, and uniform, so that the
driving public would recognize
such signs.
In the middle west and east all
roads are properly marked and it
seems to me that Montana should
keep in line with this work.
Some of the forest highways are
marked in Montana at this time
and same is a great convenience
to the driving public.
If there are any legal questions
about the. State Highway commits
sion or the different boards of
county commissioners having this
authority, l think they should
present them to u next state
legislature, which will in
a very few days.
Hoping the proper authorities
will give this matter serious on
,ideration, | am
Respectfully,
HENRY GOOD.

INITIATIVE OPINION

We have a communication from
a prominent attorney in another
town in which he advocates with
reasonable argument a "compul-
sorry automobile liability law"
A large amount of sentiment is
already noticed in favor of in
creasing the gasoline tax two
cents per gallon for four years,
for the purpose of raising funds
to match and secure several mil
lion dollars of Federal aid money
Montana has coming.
Another proposed law that is re-
ceiving favorable comment would
require an examination and a
small fee from each person de-
string a license to run motor
vehicles.
One of our exchanges wants a
supply of automobile license tags
sent to the proper officials in each
county to simplify the business
of getting new licenses.
On their face these all look like
good ideas. The temporary in
crease in the gas tax is certainly
something that should be done to
make possible the carrying forward
of Montana's road building pro-
gram. Better highways r doing
almost as much as good crops to
develop the state and put it in
good standing with the rest of
the country.
A reader writes us a long letter
in which he wonders if the legis-
1ature will realize the obligation
resting upon it to enact %appropri-
ate laws to enable the police
powers of the state to be used
to enforce the federal prohibition
statute. He makes the point that
Montana is a part of the United
States and if it is loyal to the
constitution of the United States
it must have laws in harmony
with the constitution. Our cores
pondent is right. There is no
argument on the other side ex- !.
eept that it is easier to pass the
buck than to take a stand.

NEW IDEA ON AUTO TAGS

The present system of handling
auto license plates in Montana is
far from satisfactory. 1t has been
improved over the old system but
the legislature should not stop
there.
The county sheriffs, upon whom
falls the duty of enforcing the
state motor vehicles license act, or
the county treasurers should be
furnished with a supply of license
plates which could be had by all
auto owners by the simple expedi-
ent of paying the license fee and
presenting proof of a ownership.
The state registrar knows the
approximate number of such plates
necessary in each county. If ship
ped out to the counties the first
Of each year there would then be
no excuse for the auto owner driv-
ing his car without a license, or
the owner of a new car being
obliged to wait several weeks be-
fore he can get his license.
This method would also save the
state officials the work of dis
tributing the funds to each county,
and the counties would have the
money to apply to the road funds
Immediately as it was paid in.
Will not some member of the
legislature frame a law to make
this change? There would be no
reason for refusing to adopt it.

a WAY TO HELP

Every owner of a motor vehicle
can help the county commission
ers as they start their highway
program for the year 1929. The
road fund of Cascade county Is
made up of the county levy and
revenue from the sale of automo-
bile license tags which comes back
from the state to the county road
fund. This money becomes avail
able as soon as it gets back to the
county after it is paid to the
register of motor vehicles.
1t will give a mighty boost to
the county road program early in
the year if the motor vehicle own
srs will purchase their license
.ags at the earliest possible
noment.-Great Falls Tribune.

TO HIS FACE
(By H. E. Prall)

For the first time in many years,
| have made a New Years reso-
luton. It is this: am resolved
that | will speak a little more
kindly of folks, both to their faces
and behind their backs, but
especially To Their Faces.
| shall not be able to keep this
resolution as | would like because
of years of practical ~cussedness
and the tendency of human nature,
but. at least, I shall not forget it.
Although this resolution was the
outcome of years Of experience
and careful study, I had not
relied it's true worth. | tried
it out a few times before the New
Year came and the results amply
repaid me for the making of it.
Volumes of philosophy and
sociology might be written, based
upon the substance of this resolu-
ton. Let me here, set forth a
brief of what they would contain.
l shall never forget how my in
terest was intrigued when | first
learned the marked contrast in
the meaning of the two words,
Character and Reputation.
Character is what a man really
is. Reputation is what people say
he is. Obviously, Character is of
vastly greater Importance. Re-
member that. Now, what you say
behind a PERSONS back, affects his
reputation, but what you say to
his face, affects his character.
Few people realize and recognize
the far-reaching nature of this
How often a criminal is
made because of words said to his
How often a failure is made
because of words said to his face.
How often a man OF Woman has
)een saved from a criminals lot
" some kind words Of confidence
md encouragement said to his

man or woman has been saved

The money for both these funds
came from the November taxes.
Later on when the second part of
the taxes are paid there will be
another distribution to both funds.
1t will not be quite so large as
this one, Mrs. Inglehart says.
