TRAFFIC DEATHS
RISING SHARPLY
1910 Highway Toll Will
Far Exceed 1895 AT
Present Rate

CHICAGO, Nov. % R The
National Safety Council predicted
today that the nations 1910 traffic
toll would exceed last years,
possibly by as much as 1000.
Heading into the dangerous
Christmas season, America has a
10-months' toll of q, 1850 deaths,
compared with 25,7 $50 in the same
period of 1899, the Council said.
In October occurred $3.50 deaths,
four per cent more than the 1920
in the previous October, the report
added.
Traffic deaths for the remainder
of the year must be cut m fourth
to bring the total down to the 3d.
900 of 1889, the Council reported,
adding that this ''is improbable
even impossible in the face of cur-
rent trends unless every driver
and pedestrian makes it a per-
sonal responsibility to avoid traf-
fic tragedy"

WASHINGTON. Nov. o. R -
Rep. Dies D-Tex) discussed the
work of his committee on un-Aner-
lean activities with President
Roosevelt today and later said his
investigation would continue with
the cooperation of other govern
ment agencies.
''Fullest exposure of fifth coll

reporters after his return to the
capitol, Except where Innocent
persons are involved and where
there is evidence that might lead
to convictions"
Steadfastly, he declined to say
what had passed between him and
the President. He had been sum-
moned to the White House by the
President in a telegram which sug-
gested that premature publication
of committee findings might ham,
per the efforts of the Federal Bur-
eau of Investigation to ferret out
and eliminate subversive and fifth
column activities.
Mr.. Roosevelt previously had
sharply criticized the work Of the
committee and SO had some men,

turn had vehemently charged that
administration officials were not
cooperating properly in the cam.
paign against un-Americanism. He
had not visited the White House in

Congregational activities may be re-

is a work for Christ that should be
done, there is a testimony that should

We may still rally to the support

allowed yourself to become spiritual

"busted faith" defend them with all
our intellectual ability.
I believe it is possible to hold an
attitude of criticism and heckling at
the same time one pretends to be a
staunch defender of doctrine and ira
dition, but there is no power to at
tack, and generally no desire either
for such power.
