WASHINGTON. D. q Aug. 27.
On the eve of the reoporiing of pub
Hc,B private and parochial schools
throughout the country, the Amorl
enn Automobile Association today
broadcast a warning to tuotoriflts
lhat the return of millions of chll
dren to the schoolroom will create
mw traffic hazards and urged ca re
fill driving on the part of every cur
owner.
The iiatlnnul motoring boily
pointed out that the prevention ol
accidents Involving school children
hv largely within tho province or
I ho motorist, mid Ihe exercise of
million will go far In reducing the
number of deaths and Injuries.
"School. days are Just ahead'
says the statement, "and millions
of children will he upon the streets
nnd highways.. In I his vast army
will he little ones ot four, five and
six years of age who for the first
Mine are leaving the protection
and safety of their hoiiien to enter
n,u entirely new world. There will
he problems enough without that
of the reckless driver.
. ,, "While there Is no doubt that
teRrhine of safety In the schools
throughout the country, surety
posters and the effective work of
the school hoy patrols has done
much to protect these youngsters,
tho problem will still remain e
challenge to the nutton. .
"Kvery motorist should feel obll
gated to have n part in this great
humanitarian work, nnd they
should realise the enormous differ
ence their care nnd consideration
would mean In keeping these chll
dren safe from physical harm as
well it a from a fear that may mar
the rest of their lives. Such a
spirit on tlie part of the car own
era will do more than anything
else to make for safely."
- The A A A. declared that while
safety Is now a part of the curricu
lum in many stales, and children
who have had one or several yearn
in school have been taught the
rudiments of safety, they cannot al
wuys be expected to exercise the
utmost care. After spending the
vacation period on sufe play
grounds, there Is always a tend
ency toward a let-down tn their
mfety sens) when they first return
to the streets. "Unless the drivers
of all motor vehicles are on their
guard at all times, this let-down
will result In many fatalities and
n Juries, sayB the statement. It I
continues: i
The reduction of accidents that
Is traceable to the establishment
of st hoot-boy patrols in hundreds
of schools throughout the country
is evidence that the courteous
helpfulness of motor car drivers
:ias been extended to these young
sters wtjose wiiite belts and arm
nanus iiientity them as saiety cru
saders. There Is every reason to
believe that still greater coopera
tion will be given during this
school year.
The motor car operators have
learned that when the boy patrol
man holds up his hand or sets the
atop sign aeiilnst him that. It is not
an order but a plea for asHlatanco.
Who could resist such a plea, when
behind It Is the calm, confident
trust of a child?"

Purchase by the Pickwick Cor
poration of Us Angeles of all prit
pertles nnd franchises of Trans
portes Nnevo Leon, a Mexican
company operating a system ol
motor busses covering more than
100 miles from Laredo, Texas, to
Victoria, Tumallpas, was announc
d by Chnrles F. Wren, president
)f the Pickwick corporation. While
no figures were given out, the pur
chase price was said to run well
.nlo six figures.
Coincident with this announce
ment, Mr. Wren revealed planB
for curly extension of the llm
louth to Mexico City and on to the
Pacific seaport (own of Acapulco.
The system, with this extension,
will embrace more than 1000 miles
of highway, traversing seven ol
the most thickly populated Btates
at Mexico and will Involve an In
vestment of several hundred thou
sand dollars In new equipment and
facilities and an operating per
sonnel of several hundred em
ployes, Mr. Wren said.
Acquisition of the Mexican singe
system by Pickwick follows clotte
ly on the recent establishment by
lokwtck Latin American Airways
of n trl-weekly mail, express nnd
passenger service from Los An
geles to Mexico City nnd Guate

government continues to exercise
Jurisdiction over public lands, min

poses just ns millions of acres
were given to the western states
upon admission to union.
Retention of federal control
over national forests.
Retention of federal control
over oil lands nnd all mffieral re
sources found on lauds which are
to be given to the states.
Abolishment of homestead net
and Instead of making residence

Permitting the federal govern
ment to build dams and reservoirs
for storage of water from the re
clamation fund and allowing the
staL.es to Amlld cmmls and ditches
for Irrigation work on reclamation
projects.
Would Aid Oregon
Transfer of the 193.000.000 acres
of unentered homestead lands to
the states in which they are locat
ed would give Oregon, for example,
unexpected and much needed sup
port for its public schools and edu
cational instil ut ions.
Sales of public lauds netted the
federal government only $700,000
miring tho fiscal year ending June
SO. Pl'JS. and nil Ihe money re-
ceived went Into the reclamation
fund. Under slate ownership the
lands could be leaded to stock
growers and sold to people desir
ous of obtaining farms and made
to work for the school fund. Un
der the policy now In vogue, the
federal government obtains no
rentals from the vacant lands and
they are grazed at will by cowmeu
and sheepmen.
Ranges Face Exhaustion
The secretary of the Interior al
ready has Informed governors of
western states that there g emi
nent danger of water shortage be
cause ranges have been overgraz
ed and bo effort has been made
to regulate watersheds except in
national forests.
Present cattle ranges, It was
said, are not worth 50 per cent of
what they were 20 years ago. It
in believed that within another 20
years natural grasses on runge
will be completely exhausted.
There also is the possibility that
forest lands not now included in
forest reservoirs' can be placed
uudetr the forestry service before
the public binds are turned over to
the states. The commission which
the president will appoint will be
empowered to Bee what areas can
be embraced In the forest reserves
before there Is any transfer of pub
lic land.
Opposition Ahead
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28. Con
siderable interest was manifested
at the capital yesterday fn Presi
dent Hoover's proposal for transfer
of public lands to the states and
there were indications actual re
commendation of such a step
would meet opposition.
Several senators said flatly thai
If the transfer did not Include giv
ing state complete ownership of
oil and mineral deposits they
would be opposed to it.
Among the western republican
senators opposed to the transfer
as tentatively outlined by the
White House Is Horah of Idaho,
who said it seemed to be one of the
dumping only the poor and unus
able land upon the states with the
federal government retaining its
rights to vast forest reserves and
the potentially rich oil and miner
al deposits. He snld he saw no ad
vantages, to the state in the pro
posal as outlined and wns not cer
tain that it would benefit anyone.
Senator Stnott, republican, Utah,
said he favored Mr. Hoover's pro
posal only ir the lands would be
given outright to the states. This
position also was taken by Sona
tor King, democrat, Utah, who hns
legislation pending calling for th'
cession of these public lands to
the states.
