Juvenile Drivers

A TTORNEY GENERAL RUSHTON gave considerable
y concern Detroit law enforcement circles when he
ruled few days ago that Detros Traffic Court is with
out jurisdiction to try Juvenile traffic violators.
The attorney generals opinion that such volators
should be tried Juvenile Court sound statutory law
However the misconduct of Juvenile motorists is so
closely interviewer the whole perpexing problem of
traffic reform that to segregate boy and girl offenders
court having nothing to do with traffic cases seems
a not very sensible state of affairs.
The dilemma would not exist except for basic weak
ness in Michigan law That weakness is the minimum age
requirements for drivers licenses.
IN MICHIGAN a boy or girl is eligible for drivers
license the age of 44Ths is too young by at least
couple of years. Police, judges prosecutors traffic
engineers agree the minimum age should be boosted to To-
but it probably viii be until get Legislature
undominated by rural Influence.
In the early DAYS the automobile farmer legislators
insisted the legal driving age a. They insisted because
frequently the farmers small boy the only member
of the family who could be spared from other chores to
drive the family car
1t was not so bad in that early motoring Auto
mobile traffic was light. Most urban families owned only
one car which driven exclusively by the parents.
TO-DAY. in every city, thousands of young boys in
i families of the most modest circumstances have cars
of their And police statistics prove that juveniles
contribute grim and heavy share to traffic accidents
resulting from speeding and reckless driving.
Foolshly indugent parents responsible to large
degree for this condition They could remedy by more
intelligent cooperation with the police
Attorney General Rushtons ruling not capricious
He stated merely matter of law he saw it. He prob
ably would be the first suggest that parents keep
tighter rein their children the province of driving
He probably would endorse too, the suggestion of
this newspaper that police make it tough as possible
for juveniles pass driving examination; that they
make the examination rigid to impress youthful
motorists the seriousness of driving safely in the mae
strom of 1871 traffic.

Great Lakes to the Sea

1T is perhaps unfortunate that revival of local efforts
| get action on the Great Lakes-St Lawrence Seaway
just this time People in Detroit everywhere
N America preoccuped by shatterng world events
is difficult to arouse concerted interest in anything else
The people of Michigan should, selfishly if for no
other be interested in every detail OF the akesto
thesea project When it maeriaizes, it must eventu
ally will affect the economic status of this state to
almost undreamed of extent
From its inception quarter of century ago, the
akesothesea project has been inepy exploited IN the
public mind.
IT HAS been stupidity romatcized and dramatized
l This writer than once has heard supposedly
sponsibe business leaders and public officials describe at
public gatherings how great liners would warp IN
at the foot of Woodward when the Seaway became
fact
Such statements arrant nonsense. In time the
people of Michigan to view them such and lost
interest in the venture The Committee of Sixty recently
appointed by Mayor Jefies to fevitdfze Michigan enhu
siasm is pursuing sounder tactics
They pointing out the vast dollars and cents asset
the Seaway will be to Michigan.
Scoring circus press agents flights they have pre-
pared figures to show how Michigans commerce and in
dustry automatically will boom through lower freight
rates how Michigans shipyards will increase employment
because of increased orders how Mchgans farm products
which suffer a restricted market because of freight
handicaps, will find newer and wider markets.
THIS approach to public imagination is not romantic
l but it is truthful and convincing.
The Canadian United States agreement on Seaway
works probably will be reported to Congress within
month
Mayor Jeffries committee is assigned in that short
period to tell Michigan what the Seaway will mean to
Michigan so that Michigan congressman may be admon-
ished by their constituents to vote for It,
Every citizen in Michigan should follow the work of
the committee closely he communicate with intel
ligence and conviction to his congressman.
