Matter.

"a change of heart, one might say-on
the part of motorists generally.
The matter isn't quite as difficult as it
sounds. If each driver would remember
to exercise the old-fashioned courtesy
that prevailed in the day of the horse and
buggy, the whole problem would be
solved. Courteous driving in 80 cases
out of 100. is safe driving.
Consider it for a minute A courteous
driver will not jog along in the center
lane Of a wide, well-traveled road at 20
miles an hour. He will pull over to let
faster cars pass, and not force them to
swing far to one side or the other.
Similarly, courteous driver will not
steal the right of way from someone else.
He will not cut over quickly in front of
another car. He will not try to sneak
down a traffic lane reserved for traffic
coming from the opposite direction. He
will not try to push himself in ahead of
everybody else at all costs.
Unless we can get back that old-fash-
ioned courtesy, our efforts to cut down
our accident toll will be futile.

TREES FOR WASHINGTON

Two years from now the nation will be
observing the bi-centennal of the birth
Of George Washington. There will be
various kinds of ceremonials to mark this
observance; one of the best, it seems to
US, is the proposal of the American Tree
Association that 100000 trees be
planted. all across the country, as trib-
ute to the father of the country
Charles Lathrop Pack, president Of the
association, points out that Washing
tons love of trees and Of the forest makes
this fitting tribute. He says:
He chose for his home spot where
their beauty is unexcelled. Along the
shaded path that leads to his final rest
ing place, two columns of trim, straight
larches stand like sentinels, his constant
companions. along with those thousands
of Americans who come to pay him rever-
ence. In the symbolism Of a tree Wash
ington can be remembered pre-eminent-
ly.
'Deep-rooted in the ground tree is
like a man, coming up out of the earth
but lifting its branches to heaven. And
as it grows in usefulness so it grows in
beauty. 1t may outlast the ages, it offers
shade to all alike, and its disinterested
ministries succor a thirsty countryside
and provide for its physical and its aes
thetic needs
Planting these trees would serve a
double purpose. Not only would the act
be a fitting tribute to Washington 1t
would constitute a vast stride along the
difficult path leading to national refore-
station.
One form of law violation in which the
poor do not indulge, is neglecting to de-
clare dutiable articles.

FIRE PREVENTION
PROGRAM GIVEN
AT KIWANIS CLUB

Kiwanians received instruction i1
fire prevention at their weekly
luncheon Yesterday AZ the Barbara
Worth hotel when J. T. SilNtira, sur.
yevor for San Diego and Imperial
counties for the board of fire under
writer's, quoted facts and figure,
concerning losses caused by careless
ness with fire. \. f.. McFarlln, spe.
cial agent for the State Of Penn
sVlvania Insurance Company, also
spoke upon the same subject.
Silveira explained that - per cent
Of all the fires in the United States
could have been prevented. Carf
lessness causes an annual loss OF
10000 lives and q monetary loss OF
approximately half a billion dollars
he said.
Every home owner and every
/ business man should make regular
inspections in order that there might
bc no fire hazards and that trash
and rubbish be removed. Among the
most usual fire menaccs are over,
loaded fuses, oily rags and waste pa.
per Above all. he said, women
should be instructed never 10 use
gasoline in cleaning clothing. The
cleaning creates static which ignites
the vapor. This is especially true
where silk is tho material cleaned.
Boost Pageant
McFarlin enlarged upon the first
speakers remarks and cited pitiful
case which came under his observe
ton last year. He saw Young
woman in a hospital in a small town
in California who was severely
burned about the hands and arms
as result of cleaning gloves in
gasoline. She was cleaning the
gloves on her hands to prevent
stretching and the fumes were ig'
nited.

urged everyone to boost the pageant
and to cooperate with those in
charge.

Considerable Selling in Evidence at Opening of Session

New York. July P)-The curb market drifted lower in an uninter- esting session today. Considerable selling was in evidence at the open ing, depressing prices moderately from last Thursdays close. but operations for the decline failed to bring out much stock and trading fell into a rut.

Penn sylvania Water Gs Power and Con- solidated Gas of Baltimore yielded a couple of points, while Associated Gas & Electric "A" and American & Foreign Power warrants showed smaller losses.
 A break of about 25 points in Aluminium of America featured the regular. Anglo Chilean Nitrate con- tinued its recent rise. Pepperell Manufacturing and Deere worked higher, while A. o, Smith rallied nearly a dozen points. Hazeltine Technicolor, Newmont Mining American Cyanamid B" and Cuneo Press eased.

PASTOR ATTACKS
 RACE PREJUDICE
Says American ''ChristianS" , Shun Negro Brothers"

Bournem outh, Eng, July ' P- Race prejudice in America held the attention of the International Con- gregational council this morning. The topic for discussion was Church and World Paganism' with Dr. George L. Cady of New York as the principal speaker.
 There is no room for race preju- dice and Jesus Christ in the saHe church, he held, yet Christians were at present attempting to make room for both. In America, he said, the Negro was shut out from a large number of Christian churches of the north and from many more of those in the south.
 Two Faced Attitude
 "On the one hand we profess brotherhood, and on the other we deny it," he challenged. People will not believe in the Christianity which the church ip practice repu- diates"
 The churches, Dr. Cady concluded, would be unable to fight world organism effectively so long as the church repudiated the Christianity which it possessed by not practicing Christian brotherhood between the races.
 While castigating conditions in America, Dr. Cady at the same time pointed out that the problem in America was a graver one than it is in England. It was quite com mon, he said, for visitors to criticize America in regard to race relations, but circumstances were different where the colored population was so small relatively as it is in England.

MARBLE CHAMPION
 RESTING FOR TRIP
Stepmother ForgiVes Runaway
 Who May Enter Movies

Fall River, Mass, July 7 (UP)- Vincent Sullivan, returned and un- chastised runaway, rested at his home here today and daydreamed of the South American cruise that he and his stepmother. Mrs. Samuel Phillips, will take as "Vinny's" prize for his victory, by default, over James Lee, winner of the national marble championship tournament at Ocean City, N. J.
 Vincent left home, for school, Mrs. Phillips thought, last June '. The adventurous youth went to New York. earned a living by selling papers, saw the sharkey-schmeling fight. and became famous when Jim- mic Lee. after winning the national tournament rejected Ninny's chal- lenge to a post championship mar ble match.
 Mrs. Phillips recognized a news paper picture of the marble cham pionship winner as that of her step son. and steps were taken to end the youths leave.
 His step mother didn't spank Vim cent for running from home. He looked so frightened that I didn't have the heart to scold him for all the anxiety he caused us," she said.
 After Vincent and his stepmother return from their South American cruise. the lad may enter the movies.
 Publicity, plus a grinning freckled face and lack of two upper front teeth are Vincent's chief qualifca- tions for entrance into screendom. He has offers from several film com- panies.
