YOUTHS FACE HAZARD
Cities Educate Children to Avoid
Traffic on Streets.

Reports from the police of various
cities indicate that the effective work
being carried on to educate school chill
dren to hazards is responsible for the
increasing to the same extent as among
older persons. In the period from 1922
to 1928 fatalities to persons of all ages
increased about Is per cent Fatal ac-
cidentS to children under IS increased
less than one-tenth of per cent dur
ing the same period. This seems to bear
out the theory that adults are less re-
ceptive to education than children, or
accident prevention campaigns are less
effectively conducted for them,

Motorists Are Urged to Be Careful

recreation will make o new high record
in 1880" Mr.. Bryant asserted.
The A. A. A. spokesman expressed
the belief that such a successful tour
ing season as is now foreseen VII put
literally billions of dollars into circula-
ton and help ii give q better tone TO
the economic life of the entire country.
Planning of the motor tour well In
advance, getting an early start on each
day, seeing to it that the car Is in first
class condition, avoiding overcroWding
of the car, familiarity with motor laws
and regulations Of places to be visited,
which would not only contribute to the
pleasure of the tour but would also be
a good aid in the campaign for national
safety. The statement continued:
"Since the close of the last touring
season some $4,000 miles of paving have
been added to our system OF improved
highways Many new areas have been
opened up. while the accommodations
and recreations in practically all tourist
areas have been improved.
This means that the lure OF motor
touring is greater than ever before.
But, by the same token, our through
highways will be more crowded than
ever, placing a greater premium on the
preparation for the tour and on care
and caution while on the road.
"As a result of handling millions OF
tours each year. the motor clubs af1li-
ated with the A. A. A. are agreed on
some of the fundamentals underlying
safe and pleasant touring. Some OF
these are worth stressing at this time.
For instance, it is extremely impor-
tant that the tour should be planned
well in advance, not only as to routing
but also as to the stopping places and
the time and the distance that the tour
will cover without straining the budget
Ten days vacation, covering smaller
area in comfort, is much preferable to
Is days covering a larger area under
financial or physical strain"

No what particular model the Graham catches
your fancy, you will find it is exceptional value.
AS you view it on the salesroom floor and study its
points of superiority you realize that the Graham gives
measure worth for which you have been accustomed
to pay considerably more than the Graham price
But only when you step into Graham and drive it
short long distance, you choose, will you fully
appreciate what the Graham kind of value means.
Whether you drive the new Graham Standard Six Town

have new conception of thrilling performance, and
you will find new standard of true value

chine. You may, for instance, be told
to alternate between the hand and foot
brake when going down long hill, the
theory being that the heating Of one
brake neutralizes that of the other.
This applies, however, only to older
cars with external contracting service
and internal expanding emergency
brakes. The plan Is actually dangerous
with most Of the modern all-internal
systems.

INTERESTING figures are OBJ

HN4G LINES 4kNS figures are OO-
tanned from a motoriSt who
has just completed 100000
miles in his automobile, a 1926
model in the medium-price field.
During that time, according to
his compilations. he bought $3.50
gallons of gasoline, for which he
paid $1,119.58. He also purchased
ESQ quarts of oil, for which he
paid $75.
These figures average around
20 cents a gallon for gas and 80
cents quart fof oil, and are rea-
Sonable. But an average of ap-
proximately Is miles to a gallon
for 100000 miles is certainly above
what most car owners can hope
for.
The motorist in question stated
that he had bought IL new tires.
for which he paid a total of
$159.35. Tires for about $13 apiece
is indeed low. But the motorist
states during his 100000 miles of
driving he expended $92.75 for 1876
punctures. This number of pune
tuares is quite high. However, the
cost of puncture repair was very
small, probably due to his patch
ing them himself with little
patch.
Added to these items the motor
list expended $345.12 for miScel-
laneous purchases and repairs.
His total bill for the 100000 miles
came to $1,791.80, or an average
of 1.79 cents per mile. OF course,
this does not include car de-
probation, but at any rate the
figures show very cheap transper-
tation. 1t is mark for other car
owners to "Shoot at"
But the above figures were writ
ten by an individual car manufac-
turer, in whose realm of publicity
advertising picked a rather ex-
ceptional case.
Figures more to the point are
those compiled by the National
Automobile Chamber of Com
merce, whose records are based on
detailed costs covering more than
800 automobiles of various makes
operated in various parts of the
United States and an average of
1900 miles per year.
Cost Per Mile Averages.
Including all details, such as
gasoline, oil, tires and tubes, main
tenance, depreciation, license, gar
age, interest and insurance, It Is
disclosed that for light four
cylinder car the cost per mile is
6.02; for the medium four, 6.42
cents per mile; for the heavy four.
720 cents per mile; for the light
six, 1888 cents per mile; for the
medium six, $40 cents per mile,
and for the heavy six, Gas cents
per mile.
The report does not take in
eight cylinders or more.
But regardless of the cost per
mile the automotive industry
moves on. Optimistic outlook
for the industry in general was
proclaimed in a recent address Of
Alfred Reeves, general manager
of the National Automobile Cham
Der of Commerce.
Sales Reports Improving.
He stated:
"Sales reports from most parts
Of the country indicate improved
motor markets, with consequent
general business gains. After
pretty fiat Winter, Summer
weather is having its usual
beneficial effects upon the indus
try. April business was slightly
above 1928 and May sales reports
are promising. The improvement
Is spotty, with markets opening

Wheat Surplus Purchase

SALT LAKE CITY. June 2s.-The
policy of the Federal Farm Loan Board
Is not to sell the wheat it controls in
competition with the new crop at less
than the wheat cost 1t, Sam r. McKelyie
OF Nebraska, member OF the board.
told the Western Governors Confer
ence today.
Without indicating the volume OF
wheat now controlled by the board,
Mr.. McKelvie said that at one time or
another within the last six months it
more than half the visible supply.
This means the same as II the en-
tire wheat crop of Nebraska were wiped
out until the price of the new crop gets
up to what the Government wheat
cost" he said.
Declaring that ut would be utterly
impracticable for the Government con-
tinuously to take up the surplus of any
crop" Mr.. McKelvie said that while
this might conceivably result In an in
creased price. it also would mean the
growing Of wheat by farmers who now
are raising corn, with a consequent in
creased surplus.
He emphasized that the policy Of the
board Is not to Ak prices or forecast
their trend, and said that whatever
has been done so far to stabilize the
price OF wheat was purely an emer-
gency measure. Assisting the farmers
in the control Of their own affairs Is
the sole purpose of the board, he in
sisted.

Midnight Mystery"
Has Murder Faxed and Real.


THRILLS by the score, with an
eerie wind and a lonely castle
on a barren island. are blended in
Midnight Mystery" the awesome
Aim drama that started at R-K-O
Keith's yesterday, with Betty Comp
son in the leading role
Those who like spine chilling plots
and situations dripping with blood
will find the answer to their prayers
e.. for a real thriller in the talkie.
Quick action, with all the happen
ings taking place between dinner
and dawn, and each scene fraught
with forebodingS, gives an idea of
the story, taken from the play
Hawk Island" and concerned with
an oddly assorted group of love-the-
other-fellow's wife guests. In a way,
It Is a travesty upon those who hang
Spellbound over dime-novel stu
atoms. in which blood and gore and
more Of both are flung together and
labeled.
Lowell Sherman, Raymond Hat
ton and Hugh Trevor provide stellar
acting in their respective roles. The
denouement is startling and the
heroine is indicated in the final
shots. The skill of radios camera
men Is demonstrated amply in scenes
OF the raging waves pounding around
the island.
Betty Compson is cast in the role
of an authoress of thrillers. Her
fiance pokes fun at her and the
circle which surrounds her, whose
sole topic of conversation is bigger
and better murders. With his
stanch friend, who later becomes
the actual victim of "the midnight
mystery" he fakes a murder. At
this point the villain, well played by
Sherman, steps in, actually kills the
friend and delivers a ready-made
trap built to pin the murder on the
fiance.
When the real murder is discov-
cred, the thrill-writing authoress
saves the day and her lover by
tricking confession from the
to take her for himself. Thus her
trashy writing" is vidicated and
then the fadeout.
