More Fatal Accidents Occur Over Week-End Than Any Other Time Official Check-Up ShOws-lO-l1

cent of the states total, Sunday was second, with 106 auto deaths or IS per cent of the total. Friday was third, with 75 fatalities, or "A per cent. Next came Thursday, with 71 deaths, or 13 per cent, Monday and Tuesday had 67 and 63 fatalities re- spectively, or approximately 12 per cent each. Wednesday was the saf. est day, with only 57 fatalities, or 10 per cent.
 August Leads
 In the statistics by months, Aug list proved to be the most dangerous driving month, with 72 fatalities or l3 per cent. November had 66 fatal- ities, or 12 per cent, while December was next, with 60 fatalities, of il per cent. The last six months of the year accounted for almost 61 per cent of the fatal accidents. January won first honors, with 22 fatalities, or 4 per cent of the total.
 Dangerous Hours
 The hours of occurrence of the 430 fatal accidents which occurred in 1895 offer an interesting study.
 Statistics show that between 10 and II p. m. the greatest number of accidents occurred during the 24 hour period. 43 fatalities were ace counted for during this period. The periods from s to 6 p. m. and 6 to ! D. m. are next with 37 accidents for each hour. This second group GOV. CTS a period when the roads are crowded with the home going traf- flc which probably accounts for 50 many accidents at this time.
 The time of day when the fewest number of accidents have occurred is between seven and eight Q. m. there being only three during that hour. In fact, the difference in the number of accidents in the morn- ing and afetrnoon traffic which are presumably the same operators go- ing to or from their employment is rather difdcult to understand. Of course, there is the element of fa- tigue which would be in evidence after a days work, but 1t hardly seems that this can be the answer. It is more probable that the real an. swer IS ilnpatience. The operators are in hurry to get home, just another instance of sacrifiing lives to save minutes.

Changed Views on Majority Rule
1T is not only unfortunate but ex-
tremely regrettable to find that you
now favor and advocate the virtues
and rights of a minority to direct,
control, dominate and dictate to the
majority, contrary to every rule of
justice and of mutual agreement.
"We r amazed that you should
now give encouragement and sup
port to those who would SO fragrant
ly disregard their agreement and
obligation and assume the role of
irresponsible dictatorship. Indeed,
we find it difficult and impossible
to reconcile your previous attitude
regarding the validity of the rule
of the majority in all collective re-
lationships fairly and democratically
reached, with your present attitude
in favoring a minority rule sought
to be enforced ruthiessIy in the af-
fairs of the American Federation of

I'VE r amazed that in all of your
references to the Committee for In

invariably lauded the principles and
leadership of the former and found
fault with that of the latter.
mot content to express your opin-
ion and judgment upon the merits
or dement's of the fictitious issue
raised regarding so-called craft or
industrial organizations of labor, you
likewise take occasion to belittle if
not besmirch the character and abili-
ties of some of the trusted officers
of the American Federation of Labor
and of the labor movement as repre-
sented by the A. F. of L.
1--WE can only conceive that such
conduct on your part is designed to
lessen the confidence of the rank
and file of labor in the principles
and leadership as exemplified by the
American Federation of Labor and
its affiliated national and interna-
tional unions, regardless of whether
your conduct was inspired by mo-
tives of malice, of good will or of
indifference.

MOVIE ON SECURITY

Fulfillment Of the nations obliga-
ton of security for its people is the
theme of the new Social Security
Board motion picture which was re-
leased in the Rocky Mountain states
today by the regional office of the
| Board in Denver.
Entitled, "Today's Frontiers" this
| special dramatic newsreel tells in
rapid flashes the historical move
ment of Americas changing frontiers
up to the present day.
Dealing with the Unemployment
Compensation provisions of the So
cial Security Act, this nine-minute
film shows that through this far
reaching legislation, America is con-
quering a modern frontier of want,
fear and insecurity.
Then with brief shots Of animated
charts and map, it illustrates how in
a brief period the Federal govern
ment has made it possible for a
majority of the states to pass laws
to take advantage of this protection
against unemployment and depres-
sion.
In its dramatic climax, this reel
brings forth the right of the people
under the Declaration of 1ndepend-
ence Ito provide new guards for a
future security"
More than ITS leading theatres of
the Rocky Mountain region have al
ready booked this film, which was
