ROOSEVELT TRANSLATES
US. PRINCIPLES, is VIEW

Speaking before a meeting of the
Young Democratic Club of FauQuisr
County last night. Robert N. Ander-
son, special assistant to the Attorney
General asserted that the history of the
Democratic party has been a constant
struggle to preserve the principles
for which the Revolutionary fore
father had bled and died. and that
while successive Democratic admin
strations had striven to keep faith
with the people, it took the Roosevelt
administration actually to translate
these principles. which men had often
dreamed and talked about, to concrete
and definite action.
He said that it was particularly
gratifying to Virginians to note that
in his inaugural address Gov. Price
suggested many changes in the State
government, including a reduction in
the poll tax and an enlarged social
security program, which, If adopted
would bring us to closer realiza-
ton Of pure Democratic processes"
The speaker was introduced by J.
Ray Larcombe of Warrenton, vice
chairman of the Young Democratic
Clubs Of the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict. J. Alfred Austin, president
OF the Fauquier County Club and
business manager of the Fauquier
Democrat, presided.

''H0RR0R-SC0PE"
DEALS IN TRAFFIC
Elgen Prepares Chart of
Fatalities in Hours
and Seasons.

Technical charting of the time Of
the accidents in which los persons
were killed in Washington traffic dur
ing the past year brings into bold re-
lief several fundamental factors which
may be used to fnd a solution to traf :
tic hazards. Chairman Riley z. Elsen
Of the Public Utilities Commission
said today.
BY analyzing records Of trafflc IA
talities here last year he found that
50 occurred during the hours Of dark
ness. whereas but ~ occurred in day.
light hours: that trafic deaths also
showed . seasonal rise and fall. and
that the greatest death toll was taken
between the hours of 6 pm. and mid
night.
Mr.. Elgen said he did not claim to
be q traf1ic expert and offered his
findings only as q subject he deemed
worthy of further study.
Calls It Horror scope"
In my spare time like to play with
figures and charts and prepared this
horror scope for my own interest.
However. 1t seems to me that these
figures, as Transcribed into q sort OF
horoscope diagram. reveal some funda-
mental factors that may indicate di-
rections to be taken in seeking to cut
down our trafic toll.
1T would seem to me that these
facts point to three conditions: One.
the need to make street lighting more
nearly like daylight; two, the needs to
limit obstructions to vision, such as is
caused by parked vehicles, and, three,
the need for better visual requirements
Of both driver and pedestrian.
Mr.. Elgen arrived at the conclusion
that seasonal and lighting conditions
had more to do with rise In the traf1ic
toll than tratiic congestion. The traf-
fic record. as illustrated by his "hor-
ror-scope" shows that there were more
fatalities at other hours Of the day
than during the rush-hour period
when trafhc congestion reaches its
peaks. He found that the greatest
period Of killing was from s pm. to
midnight, when the rate was nine and
one-sixth per hour as against much
lower rates for the other quarter-of-a-
day sections of the horoscope chart.
in which he treated the years trafhc
toll as day for the purpose of the
chart.
Most Fatalities In Fall.
As TO the seasonal illustrations he
found that there were % fatalities in
the fall and 10 in the winter, as against
20 in the spring and ~ in the summer.
Other data referred to by Mr.. Elgen
but not illustrated in his horoscope
showed that pedestrians between the
ages Of IS and 80 represented 56.7 per
cent of those killed.
He suggested that scientific research
perhaps in the near future, would
lead to development Of q new type Of
street lighting in which the lamps
would be placed close to the level Of
the ground instead Of upon poles high
in the air.
