For Safe Driving By Motorists

In speeding as in other matters just
as far as he thinks he can get away
with IL. II this is our racial psychol-
ogy as applied to automobile traffic,
the answer Of efficient government is
obvious. Human life and limbs are
the most precious possession of a
State. Government is established
primarily to protect them. Violation
of the law which leads or tend to lead
to the injury or death of human be-
ings are crimes against God, man,
and the State.
Mr.. Jackson urges for a return of
sanity and a proper recognition OF
the right of the individual to safety
on the highways. when public opin-
ion asserts itself in this free country,
evils are overcome easily. The orgy
of highway killings can be wiped out
to a great extent, but never until an
indignant public protest forces the
action. AS you love life and adore
your family and as you respect your
neighbors. anyone Of whom may be
on this years black list. ask you to
shake off your Indifference and ACT.

the ink dried on the newspapers
which told of this accident, than we
read with horror in the morning pa
pers of August 4, that four people
were killed in another automobile
accident OF the people killed, two
were man and wife, leaving orphaned
children, and another was a young
boy of IA years, the child Of the
driver. The other person was a
young man of 2S years.
Mr.. Jackson asks all Delawareans
to think over the above record and
then give a thought to this: Auto
mobile accidents can be cut down by
half or more in a single year If the
people who drive automobiles and
walk the streets. accept in principle
and fact, the good old railroad slo-
gan, Safety First" Indeed, in the
instance of school children, the acci-
dent rate has been considerable re-
duced by education and efficient po-
lice measures.
