utmost to prevent this reoccurrence.
AS we all know the highways OF the
state will be carrying extra high
loads of traffic volumn with va
cationists going to and from the
summer resorts and you can do
your part In saving lives by CO.
operating with the local and state
police by driving at q controlled rate
Of speed.
Fast Driving Peril
Roadways that allow margin Of
safety for speeds In excess Of 40
miles per hour are rare indeed and
driving too fast for conditions re-
suits In lack Of control. Lack Of
control means inability to stop
within the assured clear distance
ahead. Lack Of control or speed too
great for conditions Is factor which
Is nearly always found in connec-
ton with serious accidents. The
conclusion thus obtained Is that
speeds above a certain reasonable
rate are contrary to the laws Of
safety.
Holidays always bring about a
scene of great carnage by automo-
biles with the hospitals getting the
breaks. Stepped-up horsepower has
failed to develop any added horse
sense. The hundreds killed and the
thousands MANNED after each holi-
day bear eloquent testimony to the
deadly powers Of an undisciplined
populace at the wheel. Your driv-
ing speed has to be reduced for your
own safety as well as the safety OF
others.
Must Adjust Speed
Because Of the thoughtlessness OF
drivers 1t has become mandatory
that driving speeds be adjusted to
meet the existing conditions. The
only way to bring about an intel
ligent solution to the holiday sit
uation is through increased en-
forcement and this will be the Link
between control and reduced traf-
fic deaths. Therefore the local
police and the state police are go
ing to do their utmost this year to
save reckless drivers from them
selves.
Be alive on September fifth by
abiding by the simple principles OF
safety.
When driving do 50 at q reason
able rate Of speed. Be courteous,
share the -oad with other drivers.
Don't fail to observe all signs and
signals.
As O pedestrian cross at inter-
section. Cross with the lights and
observe the signals Of officers placed
at intersections for your protection.
When walking along highways.
walk facing traffic so that you viii
be able TO observe any impending
danger.
Keep these rules Of safety IN
mind. Cooperate with state and To-
cal police officials and you will be
alive on September NTH"

U. S. GERMAN TO GO

Preacher Thinks Chances Better

Pittsburgh, June 16.-(AP)-A Al
year-old clergyman is going back to
Germany, taking with him his Ger
man-born wife and eight American
born children because he believes
chances are better for him over
there.
The minister, the Rev. Rudolf E.
Krey, of Ambridge, Pa, naturaliz-
ed American, applied today for a
passport that will take him and his
family to Hamburg, Germany, the
home he left IA years ago to come
to America to preach.
Mr.. Krey first studied at Witten-
berg college, Springfield, O., and
then became pastor of the Evangeli-
cal Lutheran church of Turner's Falls
Mass. Later he was transferred to
Ambridge, where he served as pas
tor of the st. Johns Lutheran church
until seven years ago.
Then the depression set in. Few
Germans were coming over from
the "old country" and many Ger
man churches closed. Since 1882,
he had served as a supply pastor and
worked as labOrer in a factory.
He finally decided to seek a for
eign pulpit and obtained the aid of
the church for the voyage. The fam
lily expects to sail in August.
