provide fun. he said. and at the
same time help to swell the sale
OF bonds. Merchants will be asked
to contribute articles to be auc-
toned for highest respective bond
purchases and, judging by reports

TOO MANY ACCIDENTS

Detroit. Jan. 25-lNS- One OF
the reasons for the showdown"
carried out by DSR bus drivers
yesterday was reported today to
be the increasing alarm felt by
Detroiters over the apparent in
crease in accidents. That alarm
was borne out by an examination
of DSR records. Street car acct
dents rose sharply in 1913 over the
preceding two years. In 1913 the
DRS recorded 1879 trolley acct
dents as against only $50 for 1871
and 1.7i1 for 1912.
