SAFETY ON THE HIGHWAYS

Seldom does a citizen take long
automobile journey without coming home
with some story of danger as he tells how
he narrowly escaped injury when another
vehicle forced him off the road or barely
averted crashing into his car.
The fact is that something must be
done about highway accidents but nobody
knows what should be done. Should high
speed automobiles be outlawed? Few peO-
pie agree that this would be the right
remedy although most of them acknoWl-
edge that speeding is the cause of most &C
cidents.
Of course, one way highways would
cut down the accidents but the cost of
such a system of roads is prohibitive in
many areas. Rigid enforcement of all
traffic regulations would also help but,
too often, the highway patrolman is not
available because of the simple truth that
he cannot be everywhere.
One contribution to safety on the
highways, however, can be made by every
motorist You can obey the traffic reg
ulations, observe warning signs and drive
courteously at all times. This is what
everyone of us can do to assist in meeting
a dangerous situation although the objec-
ton Immediately comes up that all the
care possible will not save a considerable
driver from fool on the roads. -, '...i

Federal emergency agencies.
After almost a year Of experimental

consolidated with the National Emer-

continuing agency. In 1895. under
the authority of the Emergency Relief

operation. although very little in the
public eye. It is the agency which is
responsible for the United States

and coordinate the handling or joint

The establishment of these three
coordinating agencies is in Itself evi-
dence of the eonfdsions which has
existed since the program of setting
up new agencies was Iinaugurated. It
illustrates the typical procedure of
setting up an organization: arc then.

organization with overlapping duties.

Seemingly the task of coordinat-
ing the complex machinery has
been impossible. Several coordinat-
in., agencies have been set up which
have failed to eliminate confusion.
The first4of these was the Exc cutive
Council. established July IL. 1888. It
was composed of twenty-four persons:
eipreadent. the Cabinet officers. the
Director of the Budget. and the heads
of the chief new government agencies.

the precedent established ey Presi-
dent Wilson in creating so-called
War Cabinet" IN the spring oi 1919.

administration created the National

The communist, or left wing faction


of the socialist movement, is perfectly
frank in stating that it is out to destroy all
religious faiths. Communists know that
so long as the people accept spiritual
basis for their actions, they are not likely
to make good revolutionists. Deeply root
ed in the United States, religion stands as
barrier to a successful revolution, and
must therefore be destroyed, according to
the Communists.

being placed in the Potomac near Han
cock.
According to figures compiled by the
Conservation Commission, approximately
$4,000 will be available for the work
during the present year. This amount,
will be derived from the sale of fishing
licenses in the State. One dollar of each
license is turned over to the commission
ers, to be used for all purposes, such as
rentals, salaries, equipment and other
necessities.
Local fishermen hope, however, that in
the years to come, the State of Maryland
will realize that well-stocked streams are
one of the States best advertisements
and that more attention and funds will
be given to the Commission for the pur-
pose of making Maryland ''the fisher
mans paradise"
Anent the building of sixteen fish
ponds at Lewistown, Pa, M. E. Towner,
founder of the Sportsmen's Luncheon
Club, one of the most active organiza-
lions in the East, said:
eat last Maryland has started on the
right track and soon will have some real
bass fishing, something that it has not
had in thirty years. The aid that the
Works Progress Administration has been
able to give the State and the fishermen
of Maryland is wonderful.
'"This is the beginning of the greatest
boom Maryland has ever had in it's con-
servation program.
"It will rebound to Maryland's bene-
fit in more ways than one, especially
by bringing here the true lovers of the
sport who now must go to Canada or
to the Northwest to indulge in this
great outdoor pastime."
