A. A. A. is AROUSED
BY HIGH DEATH TOLL
Vigorous Prosecution Of Reckless
Drivers Held Only Means to
Reduce Crashes.

Vigorous prosecution Of the reckless
driver, with steps to eliminate entirely
this criminal minority from the streets
and highways, offers the only means
Of curbing the mounting toll of
fatalities from motor vehicle accidents.
This statement was broadcast by
national headquarters Of the American
Automobile Association on the basis Of
every indication that the total number
coed $1,000, and thereby establish q
new high mark.
The national motoring body, which
has advanced a safety-responsibility
plan as means Of controlling the reck-
less driver, says that the mounting toll
of deaths stands as challenge to q
progressive nation. The A. A. A. plan
has as its basis stringent drivers
license laws: revocation of the permits
of those found guilty of serious VIOLA
lions of the motor vehicle laws, with
the suspension Of permit remaining In
force until the guilty party has estab-
liShed proof OF financial responsibility
against possible future injury to persons
or property. In addition, q person against
whom a Judgment has been rendered
will be denied the use of the high
ways until it Is iquidated and financial
responsibility established as o future
guarantee.
THE trend of fatalities from motor
vehicle accidents in ratio to car regis
trations," said the A. A. A., was de-
cidedly downward from 1917 to 1928,
but since that time has suddenly turned
upward. There Is every indication that
a high mark for the past decade will
be reached this year, despite the fact
that the 1929 automobile Is better
equipped for safety than any car In the
history of the industry.
Moreover, this upward trend comes
at time when the percentage Of in
crease In motor vehicle registrations is
equal to the lowest on record. In adj
dition, there has been more attention
given to traff1c control within the past
ive years than at any time In history.
The problem has occupied the major
attention Of State and municipal
authorities. Police forces have been
augmented with additional men; state
| highway patrol units have been estab-
| lshed; trafiic lights have been placed
by the thousands; legislators have ad-
vanced law after law, yet the gigantic
toll of deaths from motor vehicle &C
cidents continues to increase"
The statement continues:
THE subject of safety is one of the
dominant problems confronting the
American people. Loss of a single life
in a hurricane attracts wide attention
while an annual toll equivalent to the
population of a progressive city IL
wiped out annually, with hardly more
\ than passing interest.
THE A. A. A. safety-responsibility
| plan represents months Of study on the
part of nationally known trafic ex-
perts. New York has already enacted
the plan as a whole into the statutes
OF that State, while substantial parts
have been adopted In New Jersey
Rhode Island, Connecticut, California
Iowa, Maine, North Dakota, wisconsin
and Vermont"

drive car in reckless manner at
is miles an hour as well as so.
Reckless driving can easily be gov
erned by proper road patrol. In fact
such States that already have lifted
the ban on speed over the open high
ways have adopted the patrol method
and statistics show that traffic has been
speeded up materially, with a lower
toll in traffic accidents The regula-
tions in such States that have elm
mated the speed laws, especially Mich
igan, provide drastic penalties against
the reckless. driver, which is as II
should be.
However, to provide such regulations
that would lift the ban on speed laws
1t is necessary that highways be built
to meet this modern standard. Such
highways should be Of the super-type
engineered to eliminate curves and to
provide every element Of safety con-
sistent with fast travel.
Summing it up, the necessity for
adequate roads to insure maximum au-
tonobile service Is readily apparent to
any one who has given the problem
even casual consideration It is a fact
that people already are beginning to
feel restricted because of the cloggeo
highways and the other elements which
do not provide utmost safety for the
motor car driver"

INDIAN BUREAU HIT
BY EX-EMPL0YES
Children Beaten and Under
fed, Sanitation Poor, Sen
ate Committee Told.

BY the Associated Press.
Charges of Encouragement and mis-
treatment of Indian children at reser-
walton schools in Arizona and Nebraska
were laid before a Senate committee
yesterday by former employees of the In
dian service.
The accusations ranged from beat
ings" of the children and poor" sani-
tary conditions in the buildings to. al
legged failure of the Indian Bureau, ad-
ministration of which is under investi-
cation, to take action to remedy the
situation.
Mrs. ~~Iia c. Carroll of College Park,
Md, WHO was employed at the Genona
Indian School in Nebraska, in 1928, tes-
titled that she complained to Supt.
Samuel B. Davis because the children
were underfed, and that Davis replied
that he didn't want meddlerS about"
He took boys out of the school to
work on his FARMS" Mrs. Carroll said.
Burke Holds Work Immaterial.
Turning to Charles H. Burke, Com
missioner of the Indian Bureau, who
sat at the committee table, Senator
Wheeler, Democrat, Montana, asked
whether it was the policy of the bu-
reau to permit the superintendent to
have farms near the reservations"
1T is not the policy, but that is i'm
material" Burke replied.
1T Is material" Wheeler shot back.
Food at the school, Mrs. Carroll said,
was poor and half cooked" and added
that for breakfast the children had
dread with no butter, half-cooked oat-
meal and bad coffee"
When the children asked for more
bread, she declared, they were told
there was none, although she said the
bakery was stacked high" with it, but
that it was locked and the baker
gone"
charged, were beaten up like dogs
until blood few out of their noses" She
cited the case of Sarah Dupuys, a girl
at the school who, she said, was beaten
by Supt. Davis because she had
laughed
You men don't know what's going on
at that school," she shouted. THAT
man is a beast"
Finally, Mrs. Carroll said, she was
"kicked out" after the superintendent
had told her she had disrupted the
morale of the whole school,"
Burke Says Charges Investigated.
"You were relieved from duty because
you were considered temperamentally
unified" Burke said. ''All of your
charges were investigated by inspec-
tors" -
Miss Eleanor B. Jones of Circleville,
Ohio. graduate nurse, who was en-
ployed at the Navajo Indian School at
Tuba City, Arizona, charged that the
work she was to do had been misrepre-
scented so that when she arrived she
found she was to care for sick children
in the school when she had supposed
that she was to do field work and have
an automobile. This was in November,
1927.

had told of an epidemic at the school

and rice (cooked), combine with one
well beaten egg. Make sauce by

In one tablespoonful of butter and
then add one tablespoonful of -four
and one-half cupful of milk. Simmer
until smooth, add One-half teaspoon
full of minced parsley. one-half table
spoonful of tomato sauce, one-fOurth
teaspOOnful of pepper and one half
teaSpoOnful of salt. Add this to the
rice and beef mixture and form into
outlets. Brush with beaten egg, roll
in fine crumbs and fry in deep fat

Fur and Lace, Felt and Velvet

displays, that hats are no longer just
hats, rather are they "creations" which
tell OF an era in headwear where the
touch of the "milliner born" becomes
absolutely imperative in the scheme of
things.
In the conjuring of modish milli.
merry, the employment of lace and Of
fur unfolds an endless vista of possi-
bilities to the designer. From hat to
coat, frock and ensemble, the idea of
enlivening black with touches of
white fur wins appeal. To wear with
a dressy black velvet or broadcloth or
perhaps suede-finished cloth coat or
jacket-suit where white fur appears at
neck and wrists modistes are creating
hats Of the type of the little ermine-
trimmed hat pictured at the top Of
this group to the left.
The two other fur-touched models In
the illustration employ black broadtail
for the toque in the lower left corner,
and leopard skin for the scarf-and-hat
set shown next to it. In the instance
Of the black broadcloth snug hat with
its bow and fiat cuff of brOadtail again
is seen the tendency to match the hat
to the costume This ensemble theme
is resulting in all sorts of fabrics en-
tering into the list of hat media, such
as broadcloth, tweed and novelty WOOL
ems. In fact any material used for the
dress or suit is apt to be duplicated
in it's accompanying hat. 1t follows
also, what with the observance of
complementing the costume with a
matching hat that women who keep
pace with the mode, will find it neces-
sary to buy many more hats than they
have in some other seasons.
Three of the sketches herewith
demonstrated that lace is being as eff
fectively worked by milliners as fur.
Lace treatments may be said to be
approached from two different angles,
one is the use of insets as shown in
the brimmed hat centered at the top
of the picture, also in the sketch to
the right; the other is the adding of an
ornamental veil, such as gives such
piquant air to the concluding model
in the group.
When motifs of cired lace are in.
set into felt shapes, which they so
frequently are, emphasis is placed on
their being a perfect color match.
These matched lace effects are devel-
oping into one of the most fascinating
themes offered in millinery fashions
this season.
