American Veterans history and most of
the action taken was brief and to the
point. While containing the least num-

to those who disabilities are traceable
to war and the principal item on the
program calls for the restoration of
benefits to service connected cases, de-
stroyed by the act of March 20, and
subsequent regulations.

Fatal Time for Accidents.
From to p.m.-the hour when
tired motorists are vending their way
homeward-iS the zero hour" for motor
accidents, according to the District OF
Columbia Division of the American Au-
tomobile Association.
The District of Columbia division
bases it's statement on data of A. A. A
national headquarters, which in turn is
based on study of some 100000 acci-
dents during 1882.
While the greatest number of acci-
dents during 1882 occurred in the hour
just before dinner" it was said, 1.-The
larger percentage of fatalities for sim
gle hour are between 7 and pm. More
than 8 per cent, or 2480 of the motor
deaths last year, occurred in this hour
THE surprising thing, however, Is tC
find that more than 10 per cent of all
motor deaths and over psr cent of the
injuries occur between l and 6 am
hours when traffic is light. Certainly
this indicates that recklessneSs and
speeding continue to be two Of the
major factors in the toll Of deaths from
automobile acciden! :"
Automotive statisticians are still try
ing to estimate Just how many cars were
sold last month. but in the field of BIZ
cycle transportation no prediction Is
needed The fact has already been es-
tablished that more bicycles were sold
in the first nine days of the month than
were sold in the entire 80 days of june
last year.
And that Is only a small part Of the
story. according to report from Cycle
Trades of America. an organization
comprised of bicycle and accessory man.
ufacturers. As proof. the report shows
that bicycle sales in May exceeded those
of last May by 100 per cent. April sales
we're 80 per cent greater than those OF
last April And March sales were %
per cent larger than those Of March
1882.
! Admitting that the biggest bicycle
boom in the history of that form Of
transportation is under way, manufac-
turers explain it by pointing out that
adults are now riding in numbers equa
to children. They say that men enc
women of today are discovering anew

we'll known in the 90s, and that in ad.
dition they are finding it an excellent
