 'dThoro are no records ot accident costs for the 22,B00 uninsured ears, but we can assume that they shared In the benefits of lowered accident costs in the same degree, and that 0 substantial, although unknown, amount can bo added to the above eo000O saving,
 'i have restrlCted this conclusion Go actual money savings, without reference to the human equation of suffering and other damage to life and property, which is saved by the reduction in night accidents, That is, of course, another story in itself"
 Mir, Greene stated that the Highway safety Commission has taken no ofilclal position regard- ing street lighting improvements as such problems are distinctly com munlty affairs with solutions based on engineering surveys which dee termine illumination levels and prescribe changes deemed necessary to establish c ''safe" lighting level,
 However" he concluded, "tan- glhle dollar dividends certainly add weight to the argument that com- munlties should authorize such sure veys as Hartford instituted primar- fly in behalf Of general public safety with direct financial return being m incidental beneflt.

Efficient urban illumination pays dollar dividends to community rest. dents as well as enhancing safe movement Of all types of street trai" flo, according to Q report filed with tho Highway safety Commission by Richard E, Simpson, consulting il- lumlnatlng engineer, based on ex- pOrienoe data recorded in Hart ford.
 Tho impson report states that Hartford motorists have realized 0 direct cash saving of Se0,000 an. nually because of the reduced night traffic accident exuerience recorded since Hartford's 1 improved street lighting program became effective,
 'sThe safet CommisNon," states William N, Greene, director, "tS interested In improved urban street illumination as an accident proven ton factor. It is the safety angle which concerns safety authorities, However, when such Q tangible dol~ lar-savlng can also be credited, as shown by reduced automobile in- surNnce hates, this becomes Q notc- worthy fact"
 The Simpson report contains tho following statements;
 'The base year for such records ls the year ended July 1, 1887, bee fore street lighting improvements were made, Tn that year the night accident rate in Hartford was ll,2S accidents per million vehicle miles. This accident rate should Do com. pared with tho rate for the year ended July 1, i0Ai, which iS the last year of normal traiIlc condltionI before dln.out and other war changes. In the four years be- tween 1887 and ioAi the lighting on approximately 30 miles of stree. was improved. AS the result ol these changes in tho year ended July 1, ioAi the night accident rate was 2s,B per cent lower than in 1887.
 Automobile insurance rates are based upon the number of severity of accident claims paid by insur. Nnce companies. During that same period, ieS7 to ie4l, tho price paid for insurance for Q medium priced Hartford car was reduced rom 900 to eSi. Q reduction of t4 per car.
 "There were 46,04l cars registered in Hartford in ie4i. State records show that, on the average, 90 DOT cent of oil cars arc Insured. The

OAkville avenue m the City or Waterbury is A black hard-surface road running north and south nnd is intersected on It's east by Cle- mNtls avenue, likewise of the same composition, At It's intersection Clsmetis avenue Is a feet wide while Oakville avenue is 2i feet wide while Oakville avenue is 2l feet wide and has 20-lnch shoul- der on its west, There are no side- walks or curbing on either avenue, A downgrade runs northerly on Oakville avenue and westerly on ClematiS avenue, both leVeling of ct the intersection
 On August 10, l944, a dry, clear day, at about 400 D, m, Anthony S, ClarNmella, an employe of Will liam Shore, Incorporated, was oper- ating with the permission of his em. ployer, . Federal truck owned by hts employer and bearing Connecticut commercial registration No, 46siS northerly on said Oakville avenue at Q speed of from 25 to 90 miles per hour, Two passengers aoeom- panied him. Before he reached sald Intersection, James Richard Bren- nan, an eleven-year-old boy, had CoaSted on his bicycle westerly down CleInatls avenue and was entering the Intersection, On seeing the boy CiarAmella swerved the truck to the left, The right front of the truck and the bicycle and Its rider came Into contact on the westerly side of Oakville avenue in the northwest portion of the intersection. After tho Impact the truck continued northwesterly onto private property into the yard and upon the lawn of . dwelling directly west of Clematls avenue, stopping approximately 7s feet from the point of collision. On Impact the Brennan boy was thrown from the bicycle onto the pavement and was rendered uneon. scious, He was immediately brought to the Waterbury hospital where he died shortly thereafter on the same afternoon, from fracture of the base of the skull with intereranial in. Jury, crushed chest and multiple abrasionS and lacerations of the body.

no warning of the approach of the truck as neither passengers in the truck nor witnesses have any rec- ollectlon of hearing the horn of tho truck sounded before the accident despite ClaraInella's testimony to that effect,
 It is undlsputed that the col llsion occurred at the intersection well within the westerly portion of OakVille avenue, There Is testimony that the left front wheel of the truck was on the westerly shoulder of Oakville avenue at the time of the Impact. A brake mark made by the left rear wheel of the truck, il5 feet in length from start to end, showed the course of the truck, run ming itno and beyond the westerly lane, This mark was broken and not continuous, A blood spot where Brennan was lying after the impact was found also in said westerly lane, If CiaramellN had continued in his own lane, the accident would have been avoided.
 As one proceeds northerly on ONkVlle avenue toward the Inter- section, hts view Into ClematiS ave. nue Is obStructod by Q bank on the easterly side of ONkville avenue, No signs warn on approaching motor ist of the intersection, but Clara mella had travelled this road daily for some time and was familiar with the location of the intersee. ton.
 Ciaromella testified that for ef- flcient operation of the foot brakes it was necessary to pump" tho brake pedal two or three times and that he did this in applying the brakes at the time of the accident, Interruption of the continuity of the hrAke-mark confirms this tes- timony. Although Q test of the brakes showed that they came within legal requirements and that the pumping action on tho part ot Ciaramella was unnecessary and dld not add to the efficiency of the brakes, nevertheless such ae. ton would and did require greater time and distance to bring the truck to c stop than If continuous pressure had been applied to the brakes,
 Ciaramolla ct the time of the ae. eldent was travelling between 20 and 90 miles per hour and, in view Of the character of the intersection and the operators belief that pumping of the brakes was neees- Sary, Q reduction Of speed was indi. cAtod in order that the operator have his truck under proper control,
 Ciaramella's net and commissions constituted failure to grant the ey' oliSt the right of way, failure when within an intersection to keep to the right of the highway and fail- ure to have his car under proper control,
 I find that said death was caused by tho negligence of said Anthony 8, Claramella within tho meaning of Section 236f of the i04i Supple. ment to the General Statutes ot Connecticut,

EdOuard Herriot

DUB, the official German news agency re-
ports the death of Edouard Herriot but on1its
all details Herriot's death has been reported
several times from Germany which probably
accounts for the British Broadcasting COM
panys announcement that this seems to be
false purposely spread in France
The Vichy radio, always untrustwortay, hast
ened to broadcast that the DNB report was
erroneous and that M. Herriot is in the best
of health and spirits, or words to the same
effect This, of course, does not clear up
the matter. Rather, it serves chiefly to increase
confusion.
Whether the DNB announcement is true or
false, M. Herriot was Cor isl one of France
strong men. Despite political defeats his in
dividualism was (or is) notable From the
lowliest beginnings he was Premier of France
three times and mayor of Lyons almost
throughout his adult life.
He was the son of poor constabulary
officer and because of his fathers many trans
fers was reared by a parish priest, an uncle,
and two aunts, one cook and the other
laundress.
He soon developed remarkable talent for
The Wilmington morning star., 1944-07-14

politics and literature. At t:airty-three he was
elected mayor of Lyons and having just turned
forty entered the French Senate, the youngest
man ever to be elected to that offic From
his facile pen came books on Nine. Recamier
and Beethoven, legends of the old Norman
forests and the mysteries of the old port of
Rouen.
AS an anti-cleric he abolished the French
embassy at the Vatican and waen criticism
grew acute replied: 1--WE have no thought of
persecution or intolerance. We desire merely
to assure the sovereignty Of republican legis.
lation and the distinction between the domains
of faith and public affairs
Because he refused to joint Marshal Petain
in collaborating with the Nazi conquerors he
was taken into protective custody by the
Germans and definite information about
him has since been divulged
One of his most courageous acts was his
demand that France pay its war debt to the
United States when the bulk of French official
dom was prevailingly strong for its repudia-
ton
Whether dead or alive, M. Herriot's public
career was outstanding.
