URGE
ENFORCING LAWS
Comments on Defense High
way Stress Need of Police
and Common Sense.

Motorists who have written The
Star regarding its efforts to improve
conditions on the Defense Highway
reveal a unanimity of opinion that
curtailment of speed and adequate
policing would lower Immediately the
casualty rate on the road
John H Smithson of Washington
suggested the 45-mile speed limit per-
mitted on all Maryland roads be
reduced on the Defense Highway,
pending improvement of the road 90
1t will be safe"
The accident rate can be reduced
one-half il stricter speed laws are
properly enforced by police and the
courts. he predicted.
Excessive speed is deaths mes
senger on the highways and in
Washington" he said.
Lists Six Factors.
M. A. Downs, native of Lanham
and a former constable who has been
driving the road daily for l9 years,
lists the following causes of "acci-
dents" on the Defense Highway:
81. Lack of common judgment.
-. Excessive speed (above the State
limit Of As miles per hour.
3. Entire disregard Of State trafic
regulations:
a. Passing at top Of hill and on
curves.
b. Failure to keep in line of trafic.
c. Disregarding curve, intersection
and stop signs.
d. Failure to stay to the right Of
white lines.
"a. Driving while intoxicated.
"5 Absolute lack Of road courtesy.
IS. Plain, unadulterated D. onery-
ness"
He believes the road can be made
safe by assignment of a sufficient
number of State police to patrol it
over week ends during the Summer
months, requiring the officers to
enforce the Maryland trafic regula-
tions as effectively as are the District
of Columbia laws, and have the Police
Court judge punish violators until
it hurts"
Scouts Hazards.
Asserting the Defense Highway
was never intended to duplicate the
Indianapolis speedway, even though
it is so thought by many motorists, Z"
Downs contends the dangerous" fea-
lures Of the road are not more haz-
ardous than other highways.
He says the Ardmore turn can be
driven with perfect safety at IS miles
an hour in wet weather, and the
overhead bridge across the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad tracks at Lanham,
although IAN engineering monstros-
ity." is safe in wet as well as dry
weather.
Pointing out that Connecticut re-
Gently placed a definite limit of As
miles an hour on the travelling public
in lieu of its former reasonable
speed" limitation, DR.. Edgar P. Cope
land, 1901 I street, said:
until the drivers of automobiles
learn to adjust their driving to road
the conditions that confront them
the improvement OF highways simply
serves as an invitation to greater
speed and greater risk"
Better Roads, More Deaths.
He also cited the conclusion of
Gov. Hoffman of New Jersey, who
served five years as motor vehicle
commissioner Of his State, that "the
better the road the more we can kill" :"
w. Heath Eldridge of Nutley, N. j..
stated that unless the automobile
drivers Of this locality improve there
will be just as many accidents" re-
gardless Of highway widths.
Accidents on the Defense Highway
can be reduced. he thinks. 4 drivers
are educated to keep in line, consider
the cars ahead and behind and give
hand signals. Arrests for reckless
driving also would help, he states.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. |.
(UP)-Columbus will have
it's day of days tomorrow
when the Irish OF Notre Dame come
to town TO meet the Buckeyes of
Ohio State at football. in the sta
dium which seats 80,l00
Columbus is football mad; mad
about its beloved Buckeyes who, for
the first time in more than de-
cade, stand on thethreshold of the
national championship
The game is on the tongue of
every citizen and the front page
of every newspaper. And Today
before the hackers of N0tre
Dame emptied into the city by
thousands-there was but one re-
suit mentioned, solid victory for
the Ohio State team whose big.
rawboned line, and fast, hard
bitten backs have scourged the
middle west so far this year.
The gamblers were not only ready
TO let others bet on Notre Dame,
but were willing to give y points.
Columbus believes its team will win
by two touchdowns or more, and
Notre Danes perfect record won't
shake that faith. And if one would
rather have odds than points, Co.
lumbus will lay eight dollars to
five dollars that the Irish take a
licking.
Magic Faith
Columbus faith in the Buckeyes
lies not in what they have shown
to date, but rather in what they
haven't shown. Not once this year,
save for few fleeting moments
against Kentucky, have the Buck
eyes pulled out their silk hats and
gone into the magical repertoire
which baggled their opponents of
1884. They know all that magic of
a year ago-and more besides-but
they haven't needed it. Against
Notre Dame, the boys who know.
say the Staters will reveal their
all.

Future standings in the confer

Brawley barely eked out a seven

If both underdogs emerge as vic

the race in a three way tie. and II
