gram Of accident prevention would
be advanced much faster"
Weekly Statement
Supt. Roach's statement follows
Everyone has more than enough
Of personal tragedy to overcome
We note daily IN the newspapers
the details Of accidents that have
permanently darkened the homes Of
our neighborS and acquaintance
Surely we do not need these con.
slant reminders Of those carried tc
the hospitals and niorgues TO make
us understand systematic measures
to stop this accident slaughter.
But now and then we are jolted
by some combination Of tragic CIR
cumstances that just about break
our hearts. ..t
Within our own experience we
know friends or even our own rela-
tives who have been visited by trag-
edy and sorrow, brought about BY
the motor vehicle. The ones that
were lost had affection and anibi-
ton lavished on them-only to have
everything swept away In o mo-
inent.
There are nearly one hundred oi
these trafiic fatalities every day
and probably On additional three
thousand injuries are caused. Many
Of these leave the victim per1aa.
nently crippled.
We have but one reason fos
bringing these narrowing expert.
ences TO mind and that Is to on.
courage everyone to yedouble Their
efforts to put an end to accidents
and tragedy. II also has anothel
purpose, that Of encouraging old Il
the police departments program Of
promoting safety and influencing
safer drivers.
Leaders Needed
In O very real sense, the Safety
Movement today needs many more
leaders and more workers. II needs
public opinion which Is the flrst
step for stopping accidents. With
out this public opinion no safety
program can reach Its maximum,
efficiency.
The ones who have died because
Of trafIic accidents have left broken
hearts behind them. They symbol
LIE countless other similar TRACE
dies. These will 90 on and on
through endless years unless we
soon are spurred TO greater efforts
and greater accomplishments In &C.

CubanoS, now taking pot-ShotS at o
Spanish column, now hacking the
ears off some Spanish sentry with Q
machete, now scurrying back up
into the hills to hide when the
Spaniards got too strong.
CHINESE COULD LEARN
FROM THOSE CUBANS
For ten years this sort Of thing
went on In Cuba, o little like the
Chinese are supposed to be doing to
the Japanese around the edges OF
the main show there. Then It was
settled. But what did the Cubars
get out Of the settlement? They
got the right TO pay more taxes
that's what they got!
So IN 1895 It started all over again
The world began to hear Of o new
set OF Cuban heros, Gomez, Maceo
MART, Garcia.
The Cubans developed guerrilla
warfare into q fine art. They had
no Chinese chance In an open fight
wit hthe Spanish, and they knew 1t
But most Of the people were for the
revolutionaries, and helped them or
the sly. So the Spaniards had to act
against -coinbatants, much al
aggressive countries bonbers do to-
day. Only in those days people got
indignant about 1t.
Weyler, the Spanish commander
devised O technique that Is in higt
favor In Europe now - the con
centration camp. He Just orderet
all the people Of whole neighbor
hoods to leave their homes ant
stores and huddle In camps unde
the Spanish rifles.
WORLD DIDN'T APPRECIATE
WAR IN THOSE DAYS .A
OF course they died like flies, q
disease ana starvation.
Adding In those who were stoo
against O wall In MORO Sastle an
other places, at least 100000 OF thos
100000 people died.
Then the Americans, who wer
pretty sick about all this brutality
and all the shooting and burnin
and lootin gand killing, decided :
do something about II. They sen
soldiers to help the Cubans.
The patriots came down from tn
hills, and together, the American
and Cubans finished off the Span
iards In short order.
Once more David, given O littl
timely help In finding good stone
for his sliag.shot, had let Goliatl
have II right In the eye. And one
more the Cubans had proved tina

they fall"
