Reckless Driving Penalties.

The strange rule whereby the Commits
sioners are required to transmit recon-
mendations for new legislation for the
District through the Bureau of the Bud
get, approval by which is necessary
before they can be considered at the
Capitol, effects delay and possible
negation OF the proposal to amend the
traffic act by raising the maximum pen
atty for a first offenSe of reckless driv-
ing. If that approval is not given the
Commissioners will be compelled to send
the recommendation with a notation
that it has been found not in accord
with national policies. Just why this
procedure has been adopted is not alto
gether clear There is no conceivable
bearing upon fiscal questions of such a
proposed change as that now contem-
plated in the scale of penalties save
possibly the increase of revenues through
court procedure.
The Commissioners recommendation
is that the maximum penalty for first
offenSe of this character be Increased
from s1OO or thirty days in Jail to $500
or six months in jail or both. The pur-
pose is to make the streets of Washing
ton safer, not to raise additional revenue
through penalties 1t is not, OF course,
assured that all charges Of reckless driv-
ing brought against motorists will result
in convictions. The definition OF that
offense is not explicit, but it is safe
to assume that charges of reckless
ness in the handling OF motor car
would not be brought under a system OF
higher penalties without justification.
Regardless of what becomes OF the
reckless driving recommendation. the new
automatic permit suspension order for
drivers convicted of speeding will 90 into
effect next week. That order does not
require legislative action, the Commits
sioners having the power under the law
to make such rules for the government
of traffic. Indeed, the penalty of sus-
pension or revocation Of license to drive
is more likely to be effective than that
which is now submitted to the Budget
Bureau for approval and recommenda-
ton to Congress. Removal Of the chronic
speeders from the streets is an assured
way of lessening casualties.

Safety on the Rails.

The year 1885 was noteworthy in many
respects, for important events, and also
for one negative, which is worthy Of at
tention. It is announced that during
that span Of twelve months not a single
passenger was killed in an accident on
q railroad train in this country. The
chairman Of the Western Association Of
Railway Executives, in noting this fact,
says that he believes it to be the first
time in history that the railroads of
America have achieved a perfect record
In this respect, and he asks that this be
contrasted with the slaughter on the
highway" calling attention to the fact,
rs stated by the National Safety Coun-
Gil, that 36,4O0 persons died in motor
vehicle accidents during the year.
Certainly great change for the bet
ter has been effected in railroad opera
ton, as regards the safety of passengers.
Better rails, better cars, better signals,
better management, all have served to
this, end. A railroad collision is now a
comparative rarity. The grade crossings
remain, however, for the maintenance Of
which the railroads are to q great de-
gree responsible. Deaths at such points
Evening star., 1936-01-11

of intersection between rail and highway
traffic still occur and they will continue
to cost heavily in terms Of human life
as long as these places remain. 1t may
be hoped that within a few years this
menace will be removed entirely.
It must be borne in mind, in connec-
ton with the announcement Of this per-
feet record Of a years railroading with
out the death of a passenger through
accidents to trains, that large part OF
the public travel has been shifted from
trains to buSSes, and that these vehicles
of public transportation have not main
tanned the standard of safety that has
now been manifested by the railroads.
The recent tragedy at Hopewell, Virginia,
Is an example. While the rail lines
have been made safe, their rivals for
patronage. using the public highways
with little or no protection for the
other users OF the roads, have taken a
heavy toll, In both passengers and those
other road users.
With this commendable record Of
year without fatality on a train It may
be that the railroads will make an ef-
fective bid for patronage as against the
individual units that speed over the
highways, contesting for right of way
with the private transportation vehicles.
A public demand for the establishment
of separate highways for multiple trans
portation. for both passengers and
freight, is now heard and that demand
will grow more insistent. The railroads,
required to maintain their own rights
of way, would be justified in joining in
the plea of the motorists that the bus
lines which have now become competi-
tors of both the rails and the motor cars,
provide their separate travel lanes, where
life will be safer and where this new
form of mass transportation may be-
come as secure and dependable as have
the railroads.

Reduction i'm Rents Asked
Without Further Red Tape
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
The thousands of renters in Washing
ton are anxiously awaiting to see If Mrs.
Norton will follow up her attack on the
high rents in Washington. Our rents
are advancing, and especially to Gov
eminent clerks, many of whom must
leave their own small-town homes, where
they could rent comfortable apartment
for half Of what they must pay here.
The Government owes the unfortunate
people an opportunity to make decent
living, and if the thousands of young
Government clerks whose parents are
independently established in comfortable
homes and who are able to pay high
rents were refused the thousands of
jobs they now hold here in Washing
ton, the renting problem would not be
SO acute.
But these bloodsuckers in the form of
rental agents. owners and renters who
subrent are taking advantage Of the
present crisis.
This question has been before Con-
gresS long enough to have decided action
and results, but last year, after Congress
agitated the question and did absolutely
nothing, the rents advanced, and this
Fall thousands of Government clerks,
who could barely make buckle and tongue
meet, were forced to pay from S. to $40
more for apartments.
The situation demands that all rents,
apartments, rooms and houses, be reduced
10 per cent on or by February Is, with
no long g-drawn-out red tape argument
concerning the renting conditions that
are now preventing large per cent Of
Washington citizens from having the
proper food and clothing for their
families, thereby increasing Ill health,
disease, unhappiness and bitterness.
Their minds are ready and ripe for the
poison that the foreign element is feed
ing them while our Government is feed
ing, educating and employing these same
treacherous and un-Americanized for
eigners and our own countrymen are
sinking to the lowest phase of life.
Our thoughtful citizens are weary and
disgusted with procrastination on the
part of those who are paid well to pro-
tect our property and our lives.
Does Germany. France, italy or Russia
permit foreigners who are not self-sup-
porting to enter their country, or allow
undesirable and dangerous ones to re-
main there? We can learn some good
lessons from these countries which would
make our country safer for democracy.

Father Time.
We all know a fellow called Old Father
Time.
He has taught us in prose; he has frivoled
in rhyme.
One day lie will give us song or laugh
And the next he is writing a short
epitaph.
The way he jogs on is so quietly queer
We seldom remember his presence so
near.
But he measures our steps as we falter
or climb.
He keeps tab on us ALL does this Old
Father Time.
But his hand is so gentle, although it is
strong,
That he helps us a lot as he leads US
along
And the ruins that rise on the hills of
the past
He covers with ivy and roses at last.
He teaches the smiles of the present to
glow,
While the sorrows are left to the long,
long ago.
And the knell turns to Joy in its mer-
riest chime
He's a pretty good fellow, is Old Father
Time.

Such q reader is not bothered by
critical opinion.
He is his own critic.
He has a right to be, because he has
read enough to have sure background.
That is what distinguishes him from
those who honestly do not care to read,
although they may have read q great
deal. The distinction is important.
Lack OF background Is a fundamental
defect, when it comes to books. 1t is
something that can never be made up,
except by bluff, and that seldom fools
the discriminating.
The real reader, If Of the good type
spoken of here, may find time coming
in his later life when suddenly the
inner light of his reading seems to go cut.
He feels at last, and with sorrow, that
now he understands all those persons
he has met, since childhood (and espe-
cially them, who sturdily asserted that
they "did not care to read" or that they
did not like to read"
Often their teachers, in the early days,
tended to call them lazy or mentally
deficient. Many of them "q1it school
at the earliest possible age. They did
not like to read" and school work was
based on reading.
Physical defects in childhood have
been proved during the past quarter of
q century to account for many an in

or even stupid child. When some chill

When the booklover finds his books
not as entertaining as once they were,
let him not jump to the conclusion that
his intelligence is less than it was.
Let him note if he does not have to
peer more intently at the mirror when
he shaves. Let him see if he does not
have to look more closely at the num-
bers in the telephone book.
Let him look carefully for slight red
ness of the eyelids, for a swelling of the
muscle at the inner corner next the
nose, especially for a general feeling
of tiredness and disinclination not to
read. These are physical, not mental,
although Nature may make him think
so for his own good.
