SAFETY COUNCIL URGES DRIVERS
TO BE CAREFUL AT ALL TIMES

safely Accidents are frequently
caused by people trying to solve
some perpleXing problem as they
travel along the highway at a
dangerous rate of speed. Not only
is speed on the straight highway
dangerous but the number of acci-
dents on turns, intersections, blind
corners, and in heavy traffic show
a certain per cent OF drivers lack
of caution at these points.
The most dilapidated automobile
ion the road is safer with a careful
driver at the wheel than any motor
vehicle can be with careless driv-
er. A safe driver has been defined
as person with perfect co-ordina-
ton of mind and body with the
mechanics of the car plus the
knowledge of signals and traffic
laws properly applied and adhered
to. Not all people can be safe driv-
ers. but all can be careful which
will greatly reduce if not entirely
eliminate accidents.
ARE YOU A CAREFUL DRIVER?
Imperial County Street and High
way Safety Council.
BY w. H. Rhodes, Chairman.
Imperial Valley press., 1935-03-14

This article is written not only
for a few who are termed reckless
drivers. but for every individual
who operates an automobile of any
description. AS has been stated
before, the aim of the Imperial
County Street and Highway Safe
ty Council is to make our streets
and highways safe. This will not
be accomplished until each individ-
ual realizes that this responsibility
rests on his shoulders.
The majority of the people, by
their very nature, are careful, Some
must learn safety by constantly ap-
plying themselves, some must have
accidents to drive this lesson home,
and others never acquire it.
One might ask himself in which
class he falls. Are you a safe driv-
er not only part of the time but at
all times?
Let IS assume that you are care
full driver but you are also very
busy person with a lot of work to
do and miles to cover each day.
Yet. if you will only keep your
mind on your driving while you are
at the wheel, you can still drive

Since that night, no one, SO far
as I can learn, has heard of the

been seen at. the Santa Anita handi-
cap but this clue was abandoned
when it was learned that the man
though to be Lott had been seen
cashing a winning ticket. This def
initely proved it wasn't George.
My own guess as to their where
abouts is this: Vines having invest
ed a nickel in a Philadelphia chew
ing gum machine that didn't work,
early on the trip, has returned TO
get it. Stoefen, playing a doubles
match, went so far out of position,
that he got lost. And Lott and Til

northwoods, having it out.

for at the time of their disappear

feSSional tennis, is hardly convin-
cling. And Vines held the narrowest
edge over Stoefen, having won only
90 times to Stoefen'S 5. In doubles
it was anybody's title, with Lott and
Stoefen having gained the upper
hand "a times to their opponents

to be fairly good with the bat. Later
he was given workout at first

Guttero Gets
Coast Honors

PULLMAN, Wash, March ID. tUP)
Lee Guttero, center and high scor-
er of the University of Southern
California basketball team, Pacific
Coast conference champions, was
hailed today as one of the greatest
players ever appearing on a west
coast college team.
The man who selected Guttero as
outstanding as j. Fred Boiler, who
for % years has been picking the
all-coast all-star teams for the Of
ficial National intercollegiate Bas-
ketball Guide.
"If there ever was an All-Ameri-
ca on the Pacific coast, Guttero
should have that honor" said the
director of athletics at Washington
State college.
He is always dangerous when
near the basket. He shoots goals
l1ght-handed, left-handed and close
in. In addition he is a splendid de-
fense player"
The Trojan star climaxed a bril-
liant season this week by scoring A
points in the three-game series in
which his team defeated O. S. c..
for the coast conference title. Dur
ing the regular season of II south
ern division games Guttero scored
1876 points to set a new conference
record.
Boiler revealed that the 1.-THE
grandee of Troy was the unanimous
choice of all conference coaches for
the center position on the all-coast,
all-star team announced here.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, March
14.-What has become of that brave
little band of adventurers who,
months ago, turned their backs on
New York and plunged into the
hinterland with the VOW they'd
never return until all the loose
change in that vast area west of the
Mississippi was theirs?
I speak of Trapper Tilden, Lea
therstockings Lott, Last-Of-The-
Mohicans Stoefen and Captain John
Smith Vines.
Surely you remember them. I can
see them now as they left-Tilden
with his little package of caviar and
pheasant breast; Lott with his two
meager tips on the fifth at Hialeah;
Stoefen. with his two telephone
memorandum books, and Vines with
his padlocked wallet. 1t was slim
equipment for such trip, for their
itinerary Cor, as Stoefen called it,
"the places we're gonna go'D called
for stop in every place having a
patch of ground on which the weeds
were not more than two feet high,
and a hardware store selling chick
en- wire.
For the first two weeks the party
sent back dispatches regularly. AL
most too regularly. Then reports be-
came more sparse. Finally, they
stopped altogether. The last report
cn the party, my investigation
shows, came out of Medicine Hat,
late in January. 1t was very terse
message, being the report turned in
by the janitor of the Medicine Hat
opera house on a Tuesday morning.

GRANTING OF VOTE
HELD MANDATORY
Law Review Article Says
Constitution Guaranteed
Franchise Equality.

That Congress should return the
political franchise to residents OF the
District OF Columbia, in accordance
with the true purpose Of the Consti-
tuition is argued by Katherine A.
Maxwell In an article appearing In
the current issue of the George Wash
ington Law Review.
The writer says there is nothing IN
the Constitution Of the United States
to prohibit home rule or municipal
self-government for the District, but
that the whole fundamental purpose
Of the wording Of it makes it manda-
tory on Congress to carry out Its pur-
pose of preventing taxation with
out representation"
Neither, the author asserts. did the
trainers of the Constitution-many OF
whom Just II years before had signed
the Declaration of Independence
have any intention or expectation that
Congress in exercising its authority
over the District of Columbia should
repeat the very acts which the
American colonists had complained
Of on the part Of the British govern
ment.
Holds Rights Expressed.
She says: 1T is not reasonable to
suppose that the writers of the Con-
stitution had so soon forgotten such
sections Of the Declaration as that all
koI onIo1 fhof thnU
endowed by their Creator with GER
tain unalienable rights e. and that
to secure these rights governments
are instituted among men deriving
their just powers from the consent
Of the governed
Through a historical interpreta-
ton Of the nature of the power which
the Constitution delegates to Con-
gress to rule the District of Colum-
bia the author demonstrates that
Congress. II it so desired, could dele
trict the right to govern with respect
to local affairs.
The article points out that 1t was
not until 1874 that the District was
deprived Of all voice In national and
local affairs. And this. curiously. was
the result Of action taken by the Dis
trict residents themselves. Under the
act Of 1871, which made radical
changes in the government Of the Dis
trict, Board of Public Works had
been established which had entire
control of and power to make all reg
ulations it considered necessary for
keeping in repair the streets, avenues.
alleys and sewers of the city, and all
other works which should be en-
trusted to its charge by the legisla-
tive assembly or by Congress.
Spending Caused Change.
This board undertook and carried
out wide program Of improvements.
As q result, the City Of Washington
was changed from "a most unsightly
place" (to use the words of President
Grant, to a capital of which the Ma

tunately. however, this program which
