BY RAYMOND CHAPTER United Press Stan Correspondent.


 Washintgon, Nov 14.-(UP)--- President Hoover has set q prece- dent in asking President-elect Roosevelt to confer with him here about war debts, disarmament and world ecoonmic problems.
 The immediate incentive which prompted MT Hoover to dispatch the request for conference with the incoming president from his special train en route casts was the necessity of an early decision on the European move to obtain re- duction in the $11,000,000.000 war debt owed to the United States. x
 This unprecedented conference IS designed to bring about a continu- ity of foreign policy as the affairs of the nation change hands next March. Bridging of the three- month gap has always been q problem in critical times. but never before has an outgoing presi- dent invited his successor to a formal conference to help shape

THE DANGEROUS DRIVING ACE

A serious responsibility rests on
parents whose sons and daughters, under
the age of 20, drive automobiles. 1t is
their duty to impress upon budding men
courtesy and obedience to traffic rules at
all times.
The most dangerous age for drivers is
under 20, according to E. E. Robinson,
secretary Of the National Bureau of
Casualty & Surety Underwriters. Out of
every thousand drivers under the age of 20
last year, SO were involved in accidents.
From 20 to 90, SO drivers out of one thous-
and had mishaps; there were 27 in the
ages of 80 to 80; twenty in the ages of 40
to 48 and 18 out of one thousand in the ages
of so and over.
Automobile public liability and prop
erty damage insurance rates are wholly UNI
der the control of their policyholders. Stock
casualty companies have established by sta
tistics that the record for drivers under 20
last year was SO per cent worse than the
average; from 90 to 20 it was 20 per cent
worse; from 80 to 80, SO per cent better
than the average; from 40 to 40 it was 20
per cent better and in the ages of so and
over, SO per cent better than the average.
In the ages under 80, accident experience
was 64.7 per cent worse than among the
drivers beyond that age.
There were 26,410 drivers under the
age of 18 involved in accidents, of which
1870 were in fatal accidents and 25,140
in non-fatal accidents From 18 TO "a
there were $4,000 drivers in accidents
which killed $4,000 persons and injured
$4,000.
If parents will constantly emphasize to
their children the necessity for safe driving
and obedience to traffic regulations, it will
be reflected i'm diminishing toll of deaths,
injury and property damage now exacted
by the motor car on streets and highways.

JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS

An unusual figure passed away a few
days ago ON his plantation near Yazoo City,
Miss, after several years of retirement. It
was John Sharp Williams, who voluntarily
quit the United States senate in disgust in
1928, after nearly 80 years of service in
congress, saying:
I'D rather be hound dog and bay at
the moon from my Mississippi plantation
than remain in the United States senate
Williams was an ardent supporter of
Woodrow Wilson's plan for American en-
try into the League of Nations, and the de-
feat of that plan was largely responsible
for his leaving public life.
Senator Williams was brilliant
orator, whose singing sarcasm caused
many political opponent to vince. His
feud with Senator Vardaman of his own
state is memorable, and he aided greatly
in Vardaman's defeat by Pat Harrison in
1918.
It is said that after he retired from
public life Senator Williams was offered
$50. 900 year for weekly article on any
subject he might choose, but that he de-
clined. saying: II wouldn't be tied down to
do anything once week for anybody, or
for $4,000 1850.
He was Is years old at the time of his
death,

FATAL cARELESsNESs

II Is one of the most amazing facts con-
nected with modern life that the number
of deaths resulting from carelessness makes
no greater impression upon the general
public.
In spite of the daily record of grade
crossing accidents, drivers continue to take
d chance. with an inevitable percentage of
fatal results. The same is true of other
practices which take their grim toll of
human hfe.
Persons who are ordinarily careful in
protecting their property or their health
appear to throw discretion to the winds the
moment they grasp the wheel of an auto
mobile, and positively invite disaster
through failing to observe the most elemen-
tary cautions.
& The jaywalker Is equally reckless, tax
ing the chance of being run down for the
sake of saving few steps or moments
time. Those who are careless of other
dangers help to swell the harvest of deaths.
And the most lamentable fact Is that
no amount of warning appears 10 have any
appraciahle effect.
