THE MAIN TENET OF SAFETY

Safety on the highways is principally
an attitude of mind.
Better cars and roads won't attain it.
Indeed, they tend toward the opposite
result. 1t has long. been the experience
that when a stretch of poor road is con-
verted into broad, strait, smooth highway
the number Of accidents increase-because
motorists overestimate the safety factor
They lose the sense of caution that poor
road naturally creates-and the death and
injury rate booms.
The same thing is true of automobiles.
The manufacturers give us cars with bet
ter brakes, surer steering, more perfectly
balanced bodies-and we abuse them to
!. the point where the automobile accident
rate hreaks all records.
The safety attitude" isn't a particu-
larly difficult one to develop. 1t is simp-
ly to drive as we'd like the car approaching
us to drive. Don't cut corners, nor pass on
curves or hills, nor drive on the wrong side
of the road, nor fight for the right-of-way,
nor drive so fast that you cannot stop is
the assured clear distance ahead Almost
every accident, minor or severe, occurs be-
cause someone violates these simple rules.
Possibly better phrase for safe driv-
ing would be courteous driving" Discour-
tesy on the highway is always the friend of
accidents. If you'll make up your mind
to drive the way you think the other fellow
should drive, the accident rate will be due
for severe beating in the future.

THE CINDERELLA METAL

To people which has always re-
garded money" as being synonymous with
gold, it may come as something of sur
prise to know that silver comes closer to
being an international medium of exchange
than does the rarer metal.
All the oriental nations are silver
standard nations--and they represent
half the worlds population. So are a
number of South American and European
eot'tries. France alone, of the great
powe-s holds to the gold standard at the
moment.
That is why world economists, public
and private, are talking so much about sill
yer. And that is why mounting number of
authorities believe its sterilization to be an
essential of recovery.

NO GOOD SUBSTITUTE

Arthur Brisbane has never been an en-
thusiast for private power concerns. But
the other day he intimated that these COM
panies are better than the publicly-owned
ones in meeting new demands, keeping
facilities up to par, and so on. He wrote !:
Private power companies in America do
all they can to increase consumption. de-
veloping and advertising electrical devices
to tighten housework-washing machines,
vacuum cleaners, irons, etc. Perhaps our
system is better on the whole
Thousands of other Americans who
have had experience with wasteful. ineffi-
eient. slow-moving, politically operated
utilities, will agree with Mr.. Brisbane No
one has yet found good substitute for pri-
waite initiative and enterprise.

CONTEST With CITY
Ralph Forsythe Wins Writ OF
Habeas Corpus in Fight
Against Ordinance

Ralph Forsythe, Bismarck man who
admittedly has been practicing the
plumbing trade here without a license.
has won the most recent round In his
long battle with the city.
A writ of habeas corpus preventing
incarceration of Forsythe has been
granted by Judge Fred Jansonius In
Burleigh county district court upon
the defendants request.
Charles L. Foster, city attorney,
said Tuesday that the North Dakota
supreme court will be asked to re-
| view the case.
Forsythe was placed under technical
arrest last May 10 by Police Chief
G. j. Martineson under order Of Po-
lice Magistrate Edward S. Allen.
The defendant was fined 500 and
$685. costs and sentenced to serve 80
days in the city jail last Jan. II for
violation Of the city plumbing ordi.
nance, but Magistrate Allen suspend
ed the sentence and fine.
The magistrate revoked the suspen.
sion, however, and ordered Forsythe's
arrest when Forsythe early in May,
before the city commission, openly
threatened to continue to violate the
ordinance. IF you throw me in jail"
he challenged, you will have to feed
my family. and there are eight mouths
to feed"
Forsythe had appeared before the
board to appeal for re-marking Of
his last examination before the plumb
| ing board for q license.

city plumbing ordinance "unreason-
ably severe" and pointed out that only
one Of the three examiners on the
board was plumber. He said he
