ALL HAVE RESPONSIBILITY

In all probability an attempt will be
made to make the driver of the school
bus figuring in the tragedy at Merced
last week, the goat for causing the
death of six children and serious injur-
les to a score of others.
The district attorneys office has or
dered that the driver, Douglas kregger,
be tried on a charge of manslaughter.
In view of some other facts brought
out through Investigations, it would
seem that the criver is not alone in re-
sponsibility. The bus was an old truck
that had been converted into school use
AT the time of tragedy it carried almost
double the number of pupils for which
it was designed. The brakes were re-
ported faulty last December, by the
garage man who repaired them, but
nothing was done to install better brakes.
These points, all of which figured in
the tragedy, cannot rightly be charged TO
the driver. The school board which en-
ployed him is far more to blame.
AS to whether or not Kregger stopped
the bus before attempting to cross over
the railroad, opinions differ. The driver
and five witnesses, assert the railroad
warning signal was not in operation and
that the driver brought his bus to a full
stop before attempting to cross Four
other witnesses, including one of the
children in the bus, assert Kregger did
not stop, although the warning signal
was working.
1t might be a good thing for school
boards throughout the state to use the
Merced tragedy as a warning and check
up on their own equipment. Children
being transported to and from school by
bus, may be considered nominally to be
in charge of the driver, but the school
boards have the moral responsibility to
see that their busses are in good condi-
tion and operated by competent drivers.

CHECK-UP SHOWS EXTREMELY
HEAVY INCREASE IN TRAFFIC

brought up to the highest present
state construction standards.
The chamber Of commerce has
been constantly urging improve
ment of state highways within this
county, directing attention TO our
large local use of these roads and
also the great tourist traffic. Last
year more than ILL., 900 state
cars entered the county at Fort
Yuma, and the first four months
of 1881 saw a marked improvement
over the traffic of the preceding
year. The highway count in jan
uary was made by calculators sta
toned at the city limits, intersec-
ton. They clocked cars moving in
all four directions. Other calcula-
tors were stationed at the Dogwood
Ditch, one mile east of the city.
The greatest increase was report
ed in traffic moving westerly from
the city limits toward San Diego.
On the Monday of 1880 there were
but 2158 cars checked. while on the
same days this year 1924 cars were
counted, gain of 66 per cent. On
Sunday of last year cars moving
westward from Dogwood Ditch and

Two Injured AS
Autos Collide

Slight injuries to two persons
we're the result of an automobile ac-
cident near Imperial last night.
when Paul Gregory was cut on the
hand by flying glass and his wife
was more severely cut about the
face and neck.
Gregory, in reporting the acci-
dent to the sheriff's office, said he
drove his car into the rear of an
other parked on the highway with
out lights or signals, at about 8
o'clock last night. He did not as
certain the name of the person In
the other car.
Another accident at Eighth street
and McCabe avenue here was re-
ported to the sheriff's office. Au-

Kunze of Phoenix and l.. II. Baker
of Ell Centro we're badly damaged.
No one was injured.

Bunty, who always liked TO be with
the other bunny boys and girls and
with the pussy cats, puppy dogs,

animal children. why are you all

Because answered the little
orphan rabbit. Il can't play in the
band. I can't make any music and
nobody wants me and nobody loves
me and-and-Oh, dear!"
In another moment Baby Bunty
would have been crying boo Hoo!"
only Uncle Wiggily put his paws
kindly around her and said:
~ love you, Bunty!"
"Yes, I know you do, Unkie Wig"
said Bunty. But that won't help
me to play music in the band"
What band and what music are
YOU talking about, Bunty?' asked
Imperial Valley press., 1931-05-11

Each succeeding year traffic on
Imperial county's main highways
increases enormously, according to
Robert Hays, manager of the e.
Centro Chamber of Commerce. who
has just analyzed statement sent
TO him by the state highway COM
mission summarizing the results of
a traffic count made in Imperial
Valley on Sunday and Monday,
January IL and Il Of this year, as
compared with the same Sunday
and Monday in January, 1880.
Hays computations disclose that
highway traffic on the main line
has increased 33i5 per cent in the
year. Apparently the highway COM
mission is influenced by the con-
stsntly increasing traffic in this
county as highway appropriations
for the last four years have
amounted to s1,000000 per year for
Imperial county, and money will
be expended at the same rate dur
ing the coming fiscal year. How

year which begins July I has passed,

latest of her numerous skirmishes
with officers.
So far the battle remains q draw,
with new developments expected,
for Mrs. Giraudo recently won a de-
cision from the officers when she
was released from the San Diego
county Jail on a writ OF habeas
corpus, after being arrested for
Imperial county officers.
Ernest Clay returned Mrs. Cir
audo to Ell Centro yesterday, after
she was re-arrested in San Diego.
A writ of attachment issued by
Judge w. II. Lorenz of CaleXico was
the authority on which Clay brought
the woman back. She is charged
with theft of labor.
The "Cantaloupe Queen" had
scarcely been booked here before
she telephoned her attorney in San
Diego.
Mrs. Giraudo, said in the writ OF
attachment to be also known as
Mrs. George Salat and Mrs. A. b.
Monk, was formerly owner of a
large ranch near Calexico, where
she hired Mexican and Hindu Ia

at willow tree, Uncle Wiggily said:

UNCLE WIGGILY'S WHISTLE

Once upon a time Uncle Wiggily
was out in the woods looking for
an adventure but none could he
find. 1t was getting rather late in
the afternoon so the old rabbit
gentleman said to himself.
I'll hop around past the Hollow
Stump School. 1t is about time the
animal children were coming out
and I will go home with them. It
will give me something to do"
But it was later than Uncle Wig
gily thought ana when he reached
the school the children were already
out and on their way home. That
is all except Baby Bunty. That lit
tie orphan rabbit was hopping so
slowly that she was the last one
out of school. Baby Bunty was
hopping very slowly and she seemed
sad.
