Buenos Aires Introducing
Keep to Right Sidewalks

BUENOS AIRES P.-Pedestrians in
Buenos Aires are struggling with an in
novation in municipal traffic control
keep to the right" sidewalks.
The Mayor has signed law providing
fines or brief Jail terms for pedestrians
who fail to keep to the right on the side
walks, who "jaywalk" or who walk in
the streets.
He approved the law, despite an ad-
verse recommendation of his board of
traffic advisers. in an effort to reduce
automobile-pedestrian accidents and to
speed the movement of pedestrians in
central portions Of the city.
Since vehicular traffic keeps to the
left in Buenos Aires, the law requires
pedestrians to walk to the right 20 they
will face oncoming vehicles.

Educational Aspects Enlarged.

methods of manufacture which will be
possible.
There has been within the past two
years a pronounced trend toward ma
chine tool methods in the production of
airplanes in the United States. During
1887 only per cent of the Nation5s ma
chine tool production was absorbed by the
aviation manufacturing industry. Last
year the aviation industry purchased 10
chine tools and this year approximately
20 per cent of all the machine tools being
built in the country are going into air
plane factories, which now have some
thing like 10000, 900 invested in plants
and equipment.
The aircraft industry in the United
States has established mass production
methods to. meet the demands of the
Army and Navy for military airplanes.
1t is on the verge of line production
methods for private-owner type airplanes
and it is quite likely the c. A. A. pro-
gram will provide just the incentive re-
quired to turn the scale, officials of the
Authority have been advised.
A number of the students now COM
pleting training under the c. A. A. trial
program already have purchased or are
contemplating the purchase of private
airplanes. They regard their fight train
ing as permanent asset even though
many OF them do not expect to follow
aviation as a career.
Chairman Hinckley of the c. A. A., in
discussing the pilot-training program
and civil aviation generally, cited the
growing patronage of the airlines and
the enthusiasm for the $4,000 pilot-train-
Ing program as proof of the acceptance
of civil aviation by the American peo-
pie as part of their ordinary economic
life.
He predicted that the c. A. A. pilot
training program would triple the num-
ber OF customers for private planes and
that the demand would result in the
economic production of a cheaper and
safer plane for their use, plane which,
he said, was already possible to design,
but not economically possible to manu-
factsire.

Que, the Universities OF Kansas and Ala
bama, San Jose and Pomona Junior.
The average time required for carry
ing the students to certificate stage has
been only 38 hours-well within the esti-
mated limit.
The safety record has been amazing
Despite the fact that student training is
regarded as one of the more hazardous
forms of flying activity, the trial" stu
dents have flown total of more than L.
100000 miles with only one accident, to
establish record so per cent better than
the average last year for all forms of pri-
vate flying, including those regarded as
the least hazardous.
Well pleased with the success of the
trial program, the Civil Aeronautics Au-
thority is planning to follow the same
pattern, in all essential respects, in the
great civil training program soon to be
launched in every State in the Union.
Much of the element of pressure, how
ever, will be missing due to the fact that
the program can be spread out through
most OF the year rather than being COM
pressed into few months as has been
the case with the preliminary program
Greater efficiency, greater safety and
more thorough training of individual stu
dents are expected to follow the more
leisurely program.
II Hours on Ground Work.
Each of the students will be given 72
hours Of ground instruction during the
first half of the school year-a tre-
mendous advantage in comparison with
the curtailed test program--and will have
essential basic knowledge and theory at
his command before stepping into a
training airplane next spring. He will
know just what makes an airplane fly, or
refuse to fly, before he touches the con-
trolls, and he will be In far better posi-
ton to progress logically and rapidly than
were the test students of this year, who
have had to combine flying with rather
hurried ground course-losing much of
the advantage of the prior ground train
ing.
The Civil Aeronautics Authority has
announced on the basis of it's experience
during the past few months, that in car
rying out the big training program 1t
will not permit the use of training air.
planes powered with engines of less than
so horsepower for either dual or solo
training. An important statement of
policy. this will close the field to several
T. of the popular types of exceedingly light
airplanes, but is expected to result in
gains in efficiency and to produce pilots
more capable Of handling airplanes of
the higher powered types with less future
training.
The program, naturally is creating de-
mands for flying instructors. Approxi-
mately 500 colleges and universities will
participate in the training program be-
ginning in the fall and each must have
its staff of instructors. This great spread
will make possible the limiting of fight
classes to an average of 80 students each
an important factor from the stand
point Of individual proficiency and
safety.
All instructors who will participate
in the program are to be rerated by
the Civil Aeronautics Authority, which
will send travelling school, Of in
spectors through the country to check

Thus, it will be noted readily that ex-
cept for the diseases of the senium, which
show an increase of nearly 10 per cent.
the admission rates generally have not
changed drastically.
The gains in the senile classification
in many States have been attributable
largely to the closing of almshouses that
formerly housed aged dependents. In
the past, State hospital authorities read
lily admit, many persons with psychoses
now classed as senile were given custodial
care in such institutions and not listed
as mental cases.
Since senile psychoses are seldom cura-
BILE, being the result mainly of simple
physical deterioration the number of ell
derly patients in State mental institu-
tions has mounted steadily.
AS Statistician zubin explains, "The
accumulation of older patients from year
to year tends to give false impression
of the prevalence of mental disease. Even
if mental disease were declining, the
total number of patients would not show
a decline because of the accumulated old
ones"
Ample reason for pessimism as re-
CARDS the prospect of additional gains in
senile admissions was cited by DR.. Over
holser in the March, 1899, issue of the
Scientific Monthly. DR.. Overholser
wrote: Whereas, in 1900 only per cent
of the population (of the United States
was over IS, at present per cent is over
65,' and it is estimated that by 1880
somewhere between IA and 16 per cent
of the population will be over IS. In
other words, there is every reason to be-
lieve that the number of patients in men,
tai hospitals suffering from cerebral ar
teriosclerosis and senile psychoses will
probably increase materially as time soea

minds of old timers an interesting
bit of early newspaper history in
Bluffton.
Goebel, retired government
printer, worked in Bluffton in the
early seventies.
Goebel who had learned the print
ing trade in the office of the old
Allen County Democrat in Lima,
came here as a youth in his teens
and hired as a printer to Peter
Bailey, editor of Buttons pioneer
newspaper The Times.
Business proved none too flourish

and one fine morning in 1878 it was
discovered that Editor Bailey had
left for parts unknown.

Death OF Old Time Printer
Recalls Early Journalism Here

and John Dray, proprietor of the
hotel hired young Goebel aged
twenty, to run the paper.
For a year Goebel served as
editor, printer and general roustabout
about the place when the creditors
sold the equipment to S. p. Davis.
Davis ran the paper for only a
few months and moved the entire
equipment to Dunkirk which looked
like a more promising field for
journalistic achievement.
After the printing equipment was
moved Goebel left town and later
obtained a position in the govern
ment printing office in Washington
where he continued until he was re-
tired.
For about a year after Davis NOV
ed to Dunkirk, Bluffton was without
a newspaper until in the spring of
1875, N. w. Cunningham, Lima
youth of nineteen came to Bluffton
and became the founder of The
Bluffton News.
