"All the reckless driving, all the
violations Of automobile laws, all the
disrespect for the rights Of other
highway users, and most Of the auto
accidents are due to the horn, and
to nothing else. Take that horn off
the car and the driver would be
forced to depend on common sense.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1941-02-07

Caricature Of Mayor LaGuardia
by Jack Rosen which won first prize
recently In Waldorf Astoria employ
ees exhibition In arts and crafts.
The mere presence Of a horn on
an automobile transforms driver
into a speed maniac, pig, and
fathead with the manners Of die
tator and the ethics Of a gangster.
He can own a revolver without
the slightest yen to use it; he can
possess a shotgun without the least
impulse to use it, but put an auto
mobile horn under his control and
he becomes a potential assassin with
all the instincts Of a hungry hyena.
''It is the horn," said Elmer
Twitchel1 today, "that gives an auto
owner the Nero complex, shucks
him Of all remnants Of civilized i'm
pulses and makes him q plain
damned fool, filed with the idea
that all he has to do Is to press
the button to make the whole world
jump.
II don't care whether it is a loud
horn or a soft horn, bass horn or
canary, blaster or boop-a-doop-
er, nothing can prevent the owner
from making nuisance out Of it,
and Mayor LaGuardia is suffering
from dropping intelligence if he
thinks otherwise.
'All the reckless driving, all the
violations of automobile laws, all the
disrespect for the rights of other
highway users, and most Of the auto
accidents are due to the horn, and
to nothing else. Take that horn off
the car and the driver would be
forced to depend on common sense.
''Back in the horse and buggy
days you didn't see teams crashing
into one another at every crossroad
or webbing all over the road at
breakneck speed, did you? And why
not? Because they never had horns
on horses!
/ eyes sir, this world started go
ing savage the day the first horn
was clamped to a gasoline vehicle.
1t started swelling up with inconsid-
erateness, self-importance and the
to-hell-with-everybody-els spirit the
first time an auto designer put
button under a car owners calloused
thumb. It converted nation Of toll
Grant, easy-going, kindly folks into
a country of bad-mannered, jittery,
wild-riding, mean and homicidal
dogs. 1t made bigger and better
hospitals the never-ceasing need of
America.
Sand there will be no change un-
til the horn is removed, made un-
constitutional and plowed under for
all time. Man won't be SO reckless,
SO selfish and so pigheaded once he
has to depend on brakes instead of
breach of the peace!"
CHILBLAINS?
"Don't rush the season." says the

In another campaign against auto

People Still
Buy Normally;
What Of Peace7
By b. c. FORBES

Washington may accuse me of
treason, but l cannot but regard
II as a healthy sign that people
are continuing TO buy and live
normally. so long as proper pre-
paredness operations are not
handicapped.
All yardstickS show that BUSH
ness has been getting better,
from retail trade TO home
building. Demand runs all the
way from sheer necessities to
comforts, including automobiles
and labor-Saving household APP
pliances.
Take the latter. An authority,
William Shaw. sends me this:
AS of January I. Electrical
Merchandising, accepted as Cos
pei In the trade, states that
$1,000. 900 e electric household
washers were I'm use, which
means 81 per cent of all wired
homes. IrOners have been step
ping along. although because of
their considerably later start,
they still have some distance to
go before they can Overtake

1,6S4,8OO, or 81, per cent of

ent low production of planes"
says the article, Els that the
orders were not given. The
present schedule calls for 1000
planes In March with sharply
rising deliveries thereafter. Pro-
duction for the year should equal

Increased Control

This will necessarily mean in
creasing Capitalization of control
over our economic lives. Ut is
likely to go even further than
that.)
The quick settlement of the
strike at one of the Bethlehem
Steel Company's plants was an
outstanding event last week. 1t
shows what can be done when
the heat of government pres
sure is turned on.
II may seem that labor won
a victory here. but that is not
clear.
The more radical New Dealers
suffered a couple of et-backs
last week. % The decision was
reached that steel supplies are
ample, without the government
becoming a steel producer. t2l
The continued shortages of steel
scrap at certain points showed
the unwisdom of the attempt TO
fix a price ceiling in this case.

Our Utilities

Almost unbelievable. but
vouched for by Public Utilities
Fortnightly:
This country has more lines
OF conduit and water supply
tunnels and sewerage disposals,
more lines Of power and light
cables and oil and gasoline and
gas pipe lines, more oil wells,-
derricks. refineries. tank farms,
oil docks, and tank steamers
than all the rest of the world
put together. We depend on our
utilities as no other country
does"
At this worldwide crisis. it is
comforting to know that Ameri-
can industry enjoys undisputed
world leadership in practically
every field. We have developed
more and better facilities than
any other country-in certain
fields. more than all other coun-
tries put together.
While our government would
do well to appoint body OF the
brainiest men in vital economic
spheres TO study and plan how
to meet whatever postwar con-
ditions may arise. Americans
have less need than any other
nation to fear being relegated to
the background. We have the
men. the money. the resources.
the equipment TO hold our own
with any possible combination OF
foreign competitors.
Even so. Washington should
not needleSsly skyrocket public
expenditures. Our national tinan-
eiai outlook cannot be cOutem-
plated without qualmS so long
as no genuine effort is instituted
TO exercise reasonable enonomy.
