WOMEN DRIVERS SAFER

For years women have been subjected
to gibes because of their supposed in
feriority as automobile drivers. But re-
cent survey by national board Of casualty
underwriters reveals that women drivers
figure in far less accidents than men, num-
bers considered.
Estimates from various sources, inBNd-
women constitute approximately ofiegaDurth
of the total number of drivers in the coun-
try Yet, while women represent % per
cent of the number of drivers, last year thew
were involved in only 1853 per cent of the
accidents recorded.
In the observance of traffic regula-
tons, women made an even more impress
sive record. While full statistics are not
available, in dozen large cities only 2.53
per cent of those charged with violations of
traffic rules were ws4An. While it may
be argued that ic4sfficers are more
lenient toward women vfolators, an inquiry
addressed to large number of these Of
ficers brought responses decidedly favor
able to the ladies.
Of the replies received, rs per cent
of the officers considered women more
careful drivers than men; l. per cent
thought women equally careful, and ongg
IL per cent believed women lsR careful.
So. in the face of the recoQ, it appears
that women are much safer drivers than
men, afteraall, when they are actually at

NEWToN'S HUMILITY

Celebration Of the 200th anniversary
of the death of Sir Isaac Newton recalled
many personal anecdotes of the great
natural philosopher. In spite of his tower
ing genius and scientific attachments, New
ton was one of the moB humble of men.
AS boy he confessed he was far
from industrious and stood very low in his
class" In fact it appears that in his earlier
years he had what would be called today
an ''inferiority complex" he lacked con-
fidence in himselS3 The turning point in
his career is said to have been when he
mustered courage to whip a larger boy
who had attacked him without provocation
This success seems to have led him to
greater exertions and se became head boy
of his school,
Late in life, after he had given to the
world the results of his monu nental labors.
Newton said:
Il do not know how appear TO the
world, but to myalf | seem U haze been
only like little boy playing on the sea-
shore. now and tten finding a smoother
pebble or prettier shell thanb efsre, while
the great ocean OF truth lay 81 unsis-
covered before me" q
No finer illustration 1T the BsImility
which usually accompanies true greatness
can be found thaS that.

GIGANTIC GOVERNMENT AID

One of the most remarkable pages in
the history Of government aid is being writ
ten by the Reconstruction FNNhce Cor
poration, which, with $500, 900, 900 at its
disposal has been lending at the rate of
$5,000,000 day since last February for
the relief of the farmers, railroads. insur-
ance companies, banks Building and loan
associations and the mfiG86ns who have a
stake in these institutions. It has no
parallel in history anywhere.
Nearly half million farmers have
borrowed for crop production purposes.
Banks and trust companies numbering A.
324 have been aided, in addition to $50
building and loan associations, 80 insurance
companies and so railroads. And when
the government lends to these it is helping
every depositor, stakeholder, bondholder,
policyholder and worker.
This amazi,ry, progr&1n has been car
ried out without resort pSbe simple though
dangerous expedient of printing millions in
new money and without resort to the de-
grading and demoralizing dole. What the
government has done through the R. F. c.
Is to use its own credit and borro money
to the extent needed, and then to reloan it
on good credit and good collateral.
On top of this gigantic piece of relief
work the r. F. C. has made large loans to
the individual states that their unemploy-.
ment relief programs may not be inter
rupted for lack of funds.
A conservative estimate places the
number of persons who have benefited by
this program at third Of the nations
population.

|. Of RAILS NEAR

Declaring public ownership of
railroads will become a reality
unless the carriers present diff
culties are solved, Commissioner
Joseph B. Eastman, of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, to-
day proposed new basis for
rate-making.
The plan was presented to the
House Interstate Commerce Com
mittee to replace the provision of
the Esch-Cummins law of 1920,
directing the commission to pro-
vide rates to net the railroads 534
per cent.
The substitute plan, approved
by the commission, gives it wide
discretion in fixing rates designed
to provide adequate service and
give the railroads enough revenue
to maintain national railway
system.

HOARDED FUNDS
RUN BILLIONS

Money boarding during January
increased about $300,000,000, &C,
cording to official estimates made
today.
Close to $2,OOO,OOO,OOO was be-
lieved to be in boarding, including
several hundred millions of dol
lars excess maintained by banks
of the country to keep their
liquid position and guard against
runs.
In addition, the postal savings
system has shown a remarkable
gain in deposits from about $685.
100000 late in 1929 to more than
$3.50, 100000 by the end of Jan
uary.
In many places bank deposits
have been transferred to the pos
tai savings system. In turn the
Government redeposits the money
in the banks from which it was
withdrawn. Nevertheless. it bears
the Government guarantee.

FEDERAL JUDGE
CALLEDUNFA|R

Federal Judge James H. Wilker
son, of Chicago, was charged to
day with "usurpation of power
by Donald H. Richberg, counsel
for the Railway Labor Executive
Association.
Richberg appeared for the sec
ond time before the Senate Borah
judiciary subcommittee to voice
organized labor's objection to Will
kerson's nomination to the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals
and said:
"WilkersOn permitted the rail-
road to apply his injunction
against Illinois railway strikers
in 1922 throughout the cOun-
try. His injunction was posted
up by railroads all over the
country to terrOrize employees.
The railroads did this on the
ground that WilkerSOn'S court
found there was a national
conspiracy involving railroads
throughout the country.
Judge WiIkerSOn's attention
was called to the misuse of
his injunction outside his dis
trict but took no steps to halt
this misuse.
"He permitted his court to
be used by the railroads for
improper and Interior motives"

JA|LS WOMAN

CHICAGO, Feb. 10 G.N.SO.
Sought for nearly two years, Miss
Katherine Carroll, 37-year-old Sec
retary, occupied a county Jail
cell today, facing charges of en-
bezzling $4,000 from her former
employer.
She was arrested las. night in
an apartment, where she lived
with her mother and sister.
According to police, she ad-
mitted defalcations. but expressed
establishment at the amount, say
ing:
Gosh, didn't know It was
that much, but if my boss says
so, it must be right"
Her former employer, Constant
C. Hopkins, preferred the charges.
He said Miss Carroll disappeared
in March, 1880, shortly before
an auditor was to examine the
concerns books. She had been
Hopkins secretary for 13 years.
