WINTER HAZARDS
RESULT IN TRAGEDY

The coming of winter, as the
National Safety Council points
out, brings with it number of
varied and important accident
hazards. Carbon monoxide is
one of the foremost. Motorists
warm up their cars in closed
garages and the inevitable re-
suit is more unnecessary TRACE
dies to add to the annual death
toll.
Another field where winter
brings an increase in fatalities
is in hunting, nearly one half of
all firearms deaths each year
occur from Nov. to February.
Careless or inexperienced sport
men carry loaded guns in vehi-
cles, leave them leaning against
trees, draw them barrel foremost
after them when crossing fences
shoot at moving, unseen objects
and so on, and the accident
toll scars.
The most Of us, winter driv-
ing presents the principal haz-
ard Streets are wet and Slip
perry, darkness comes early.
The condition of ones tires,
brakes and windshield wiper is
vastly more important than at
any other time of the year.
Every motcrist should have
his car examined at the beginn-
ing of the winter to make GER
tain it is in good operating con-
dition. Then he should re-
member that only Is per cent
of car accidents can be laid to
mechanical failure, and that in
the balance the human element
must bear the blame. The only
course to pursue is to drive with
a maximum of care under any
and all conditions, and drive as
little as possible when road and
weather conditions are excep-
tionally bad.
In automobiles in homes and
in sport, winter presents a
thousand menaces to life and
health and property, Practic-
ally every one of them can be
offset by care, competence and
thought on the part of the in
dividual.

BATTLE OF THE
BOTTLES" IN FULL
SWING IN WASH.

What might be termed the
battle of the bottles" got in
to full swing at Washingt n
during the week before prohibi-
tion repeal became an actuality.
The fight is between the Federal
government and the liquor man
ufacturers. The distillers came
forward with code of their own
making, saw it at once discard
ed. 1t was replaced with a
code drawn up at the Presi-
dents suggestion, which gave a
very different slant to the pic
ture than manufacturers had
hoped. Under it a government
corporation would be formed
to handle the n,ire wholesale
liquor business. Provisions in
clude:
A Federal Alcohol Control
Administration, with czar-like
power over the industry, which
would rule without liquor re-
presentation; complete control
over production and distribu-
tion through a quota system
authority to fix and regulate
prices; no additions to existing
distilling capacity could be built
without certificate of necessity
from the Administration; an
agreement with the Secretary
of Agriculture to pay parity"
prices, fixed by him, for raw
materials used in distilling.
The liquor industry had an
ticipated some sort of Federal
control, but they had not thot
it would be so relentless as this.
Particularly distasteful to them
was the provision concerning
plant additions, practically
every major distiller is in the
midst of expansion.
In the meantime, the states
have been rushing plans to con-
troll sales within their borders.
Most of the states have yet to
make definite regulations, but
this indicates the trend of thot
on the matter.

Company putting in the pipe
line to Phoenix, moved their
headquarters from Tucson to
Coolidge and are nicely located
in their new quarters on Cool

LONDON, Feb. 2. - Great Bri- tains clearcut stand on settling oi war debts without swapping econ- omic concessions with the United States or pledging return to the Gold Standard, except on definite conditions, was outlined yesterday by Chancellor of Exchequer Nev- elle Chamberlain, who was a guest of the American Correspondents As sociation of London.
 In answer to questions directed at him by the correspondents, the Chancellor said:
 Creditor vs. Debtor
 "The conception of concessions by Great Britain in return for scaling down of war debts, is not the Brit ish conception.
 "The British view is that these obligations are not those of an ordinary debtor and creditor but that adjustment is as much ir the interest to the creditor nation as of the debtor nation"
