Famous Sayings
Bruce Cation Says
- Wreck Weather is Coming

Summer approaches, the pulse
of nature quickens, life begins,
and shortly the countrys motorists
will start slowing up one another's
pulses and ending their lives.
Traffic cops know that good
weather breeds bad accidents. The
safest time to take spin is at the
height of a rainstorm or the tag
end OF a good thick blizzard. Most
people are more than ordinarily
cautious then. When the sun comes
out and the roads dry off, every
body does a little relaxing, lets it
out and turns his car into a kind
of travelling nut house.
The season, therefore, is ripe
for taking stock. of your own
assets and liabilities as driver,
the ones that appear to be those
of the average driver you encount-
er. and those of your car as some
thing to entrust your life to.
How long it will take to make
the nations highways as safe as
its sidewalks nobody cares to guess,
but the problems of traffic have
never commanded such concerted,
countrywide study as they are now
receiving. National organizations,
community groups, city, county,
state, and federal officials are 60
ing after satisfactory solutions
from every conceivable angle.
Highway Improvement IS one
Imperial Valley press., 1938-04-19

idea. The chairman of Connecti-
cuts Highway Safety Commission
has recently expressed a hope, as
have others, for compulsory car
inspection prior to any transfer OF
ownership of a secondhand auto
mobile. The imposition of driving
tests and other examinations ON
license applicants is growing.
A Chicago traffic court judge
has gone to the extent of having
traffic law violators examined by
psychiatrists, and induced to take
treatments whose purpose is the
correction of the personality
twists" responsible for their alb
normal behavior at the wheel.
The greatest movement, and the
most effective one, is the safety
education campaign among chill
dren and adults. Figures on traffic
deaths and injuries in cities all
over the country show startling
reductions where such campaigns
have been pursued.
If present efforts in the direc-
ton of highway safety are kept
up with continued interest, a traf-
fic death in the future will really
be news.

THESE CRAZY DRIVERS

One person was seriously injured near
Ell Centre during the Easter weekend
because the driver refused to heed the
warnings of his passengers that he was
going too fast.
Americans are notorious for their
loose usage of the English language, but
it is in such instances their usage Of such
terms as "crazy driver" ceases to be
a matter of poor grammar. The phrase
is eminentlV justified.

The effect of the Golden Jubilee at
Tulare will be lasting. Many people
will carry the memories of it to their
last days. For several weeks the citizens
had fun in preparation for the affair.
The men grew whiskers and the women
donned outlandish dresses They laugh
ed and played and did crazy things and
not only did they have much fun but
others enjoyed it as well. Every town,
now and then, should loosen up and
pull off just such stunts. 1t would break

Hoi0ritU Leaders

WASHINGTON.-Pat Harrison OF

leadership in the Senate ana John
j. O'Connor of New York went after
the same post in the House.
They we're ambitious to reach
the highest points in their political
careers. And in each case Frank
lin D. Roosevelt turned thumbs

were too conservative for the New
Deal.
But they got there just the same.
While the men whom the admins

leaders of a new majority in Con-

Both are popular and known gen.
orally as good fellows" SO their
recent triumphs have been enjoyed
by many friendly colleagues who
smarted with them when the ad-
miniStration in its balmler days
blasted their aspirations.
After the historic defeat of the
Roosevelt reorganization bill, o.
Connor had some of the cores
pondents, photographers and others
up to the sanctum behind the Rules
Committee room and opened the
door of an electric refrigerator
which contained champagne, whisky
and beer. Perhaps he wasn't think
ing of the days Of late 1886 when
he and his cronies sat in that sane
tum and had to mourn collapse OF
his campaign for the leadership
He had a right, however, to recall
those days.
An often turbulent, alternately
gruff and genial but keen-minded
red haired Irishman, O'Connor has
incurred New Deal wrath.
Although O'Connor did not ratt
the leadership through seniority, hi
chairmanship of the Rules Commit

MEXICO CITY, May II G.N.S.)
His domain surrounded by 10000
Federal troops who held the state
Of San Luis Potosi in an iron
grip, Gen. Saturnino Cedillo was
again ordered by tie Mexican War
Ministry today to accept the post
of military governor of Michoacan.
This order was dispatched
shortly after President Cardenas
struck back at reports of a threat
ened uprising in San Luis PotoSi
under leadership of Cedillo and
backed by his private army of
$4,000 agrarians.
CardenaS told newspaper cor
respondents that Cedilla, who
suddenly disappeared yesterday,
had been located again at his
'hideout" at Las Palomas in San
Luis Potosi. The president at.
tributed fears of a revolt to stories
circulated by Cedillo's henchmen.
THE government knows
stated. "He is at Las PalomaS.
Absolute tranquility reignS in
the state of San Luis Potosi as
well as elsewhere. General &C.
dillo will not rise UP in arms
against the government"
War Minister Gen. Avila Cana
chos ordered Cedillo to report for
duty as commander of the
Michoacan zone. These orders
were first issued several weeks
ago for the evident purpose Of
separating, Cedillo from his army.
The war minister stated CediCo's
resignation on grounds Of illness
can not be accepted. and that he
must first assume his new COM
mand before quitting the army.
Cedillo, still pleading illness,
sent his aide, Col. Solisthenes Gar
cha, to take charge in Michoacan.
Garcia reported for duty today.
