PEDESTRIANS.
MANY TIMES
ATFAULT
Drunken Drivers En-
danger Selves as Well
as All Others

Mr.. Pedestrian, this is written
for you. The pictures are drawn
for your special benefit. For in
10 per cent Of last years traffic
deaths the victim was found by
coroner's jury to be at fault. And
in half of the deaths, where the
victim was at fault, he was a pc.
destrian.
And you drunken drivers, this
is written also for you. For next
to the pedestrians, more fatal &C.
cidents last year were due to You
often with your fellow drivers
as victims-than to any other
cause. You weave in and out of
traffic, you travel at excessive
speeds, you disregard the rights of
others, you run through lights, you
fail to observe stop signs and you
try to climb trees with your cars
Look at the pictures and see where
you are likely to wind up, unless
you go to Jail first for killing
someone else.
Children Are Warned
And you schoolboys and school
girls, and you children who play
in the streets, and dodge quickly
from behind parked cars, and run
out into traffic in pursuit of balls,
this is written for you, and the
pictures are well worth your study.
There is not a motorist in Wash
ington who would willingly hurt
you. All drivers exercise special
care when they see children play
ing in the street or on the side
walks. They do their best to avoid
running you down when you do
dash into the street. But some
times they can't help it. You run
squarely into the path of cars.
You don't look up and down the
street. YoL are careless. And
your carelessness may cost you

lives of other boys and girls last
year, and sent scores to hospitals
crippled for life.
For Speeders, Too
And you sober SpeederS. it is
written for you, too. For, excel
lent driver though you may be,
the streets of Washington, with
their parked cars, their blind cor
ners, their circles, their heavy
traffic, are not SpeedwayS.
And even where there is little
traffic and there is clear;
straight path ahead, the streets
may be slippery or your car may
lose a bolt at some critical point,
or you may sneeze and lose con-
troll of the wheel. And then you,
perhaps, will have your name in
the newspapers as the latest traf-
fic fatality of 1886.
| Look at the pictures. Think it
over.
If you do, it may save your life.
If you don't, be sure your in
surance premiums are paid.

John McGroGrty is a poet
And the CalitornianS know it,
Which is tOhy they sent him here
to be their Uoice,
But the ancient halls OF Congress,
Sad, SedGte and also SongleSS,
Hold no glamour for the Cali
tornidnS' choice.
For the man Whose rhymes
elected
Him in manner unexpected
Has found little here to translate
into UerSe,
And the things Which haze trans
pired
Haze left much to be desired
What tUGS bad Is noW 500 worse.

Ken Murray


J. p. Morgan has been play
ing a return engagement before
the Senate Investigating Com
mittee, which is trying to prove
that he helped push us into the
last war by selling guns to the
Allies. Well, maybe the poor
fellow didn't know they were
loaded.
Quite a contract. The last
time he made an appearance, he
had a midget on his knee, and
now they're trying to throw a
war in his lap.
You can't blame the Demo
Gratis for watching the investiga-
ton very closely. They want to
be sure he's talking about am
munitiOn for the war in 1914,
and not the coming campaign
in 1886.

Anticipating a wide following
for the concerts of this sixth
season, the National Symphony
Orchestra Association opened its
box office in the Julius Garfinckel
and Company store last week for
the fall season ticket sale. Ad-
vance reservations ordered at the
time the box office opened were
far greater in number than in any
previous season, and pointed to a
marked increase in interest since
last year, Mr.. C. C. Cappel. orches-
ira manager, announced.
Mr.. Cappel believes that the
season ticket sale will be stirnu-
lated because of the outstanding
soloiStS engaged. The impressive
concert plans, and particularly
because of the many outstanding
features, it has been found neces-
sary to raise the price Of single
admission tickets. Season tickets
will be sold at the same prices
as last year.

SEATTLE STRIKE

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 81
G.N.S0.-On the road that may
lead to the United States Su

Intelligencer case today was be

Board for decision.
With Seattle's oldest and only
morning newspaper closed since

completed its hearing on the dis.
missal of two PostIntelligencer
employees.
During the last week the news.

defense against charges of the

strong were discharged because Of
guild activity.
May Go to Courts
In the event Of adverse deci-
sion by the board, Post-Intelli-
gencer attorneys will lay their
exceptions before the Federal
courts as we'll as challenging
the jurisdiction of the board and
the constitutionality Of the act
under which it operates, they
announced.
Decision by the Labor Board
as to whether it will order re-

strong is expected to be delayed
some weeks to allow submission
Of briefs by Robert B. Watts,
trial counsel for the board, and
Edward G. Woods, general coun-
sci for the Post-Intelligencer.
Evidence was presented that:
ONE-Lynch and Armstrong were
discharged for the justifiable
causes of waste and inefficiency

TWO-The American Newspaper

were members, and which is

Abrupt Conclusion
The hearing came to an abrupt
conclusion yesterday following the
testimony of one rebuttal witness
for the Government on behalf Of
the guild, and introduction in evi-
dence of several exhibits by the
PoSt-Intelligencer.
Both sides waived oral argu-
ments. But Attorney Woods asked
permission to make a few remarks
concerning the conduct of the
case which was marked by long
series of rulings against the at
temptS of Post-Intelligencer coun.

guilds motive and of the violence
which forced the newspaper to

Local 802 Of the Musicians
Protective Union, New York city
voted recently to adopt a picket.
ing campaign to compel picture
and other theaters to abandon
canned" music and reinState or
chestras, bands and vaudeville.
Thus another step in the long
and seemingly hopeless fight to
keep musicians employed, is being
taken. Whether this picketing
campaign will be productive OF
more results than the advertising
campaign waged for number OF
years when the talkies first were
shown, remains to be seen. Who
remembers those grotesque pic
lures of a mechanical robot rep
resenting canned" music?
With the upward swing Of pros.
perity, there will doubtless be a
greater demand for the services
Of musicians in the flesh. While
there may not be an overwhelm-
ing rush Of movie houses to re-
install orchestras, there will be a
few here and there. More people
are hearing music both good and
otherwise today than ever before
in the history Of the world.
The constant sound of canned"
music will eventually produce a
great demand for the personal ap-
pearance of musicians. Then the
activities of the Federal Music
Project will eventually increase
the public's desire for the services
of musicians.
A cycle of Beethoven works will
be included in the programs Of
the National Symphony OrcheS-
ira, DR.. Hans Kinder, director,
announced recently. Beethoven's
Second and Fifth Symphonies,
Piano Concertos Nos. 3, 4, and 5,
Choral Fantasy, and a number Of
the shorter works including the
dramatic overtureS will be heard
this season.
Myra Hess, the outstanding
woman pianist, will play the EN-
peror" Concerto (No. 81, January
3. Miss Hess, who has appeared
as soloist with the National Sym
phony Orchestra each season for
several years past, in presenting
what is regarded by many as the
greatest of all piano works. will
have vehicle of expression
worthy Of her Well-known ability.
The Piano Concerto No. 4, will
be played by Guiomar NovaeS, the
