"Much of this Is dae, however, to efforts made, by automobile clubs to ad vocate good traffic laws and their enforcement. Pedestrian traffic, however," fairy declared, "has been unrerf ulated by cities, and the pedes trian crosses the streets whenever ho cares to. Consequently It Is now up to the' automobile clubs of the country to cducato the pedestrian In tho proper manner In which to cross dangerous streets, to tho mutual advantage of both pedestrian und motorist. "Automobile clubs have already educated drivers to a better un derstanding of the problems con fronting traffic regulation." Ca ley continued, "and have encour aged the development- of a great er sense of personal responsibility,. The - one hope for tho present muddle and a sotution to the in creasing number of traffic acci dents. Is to instill into the pedes trian a like, feeling of responsi bility, nnd automobile clubs can readily apply their own experi ences on behalf of pedestrians to tonch them how to walk across dangerous crossings, x Traffic officers urc loo busy with vehicular traffic to pay much attention to pedestrians," Caley continued, "nnd they, ap preciating this, shift for them selves at crossings." In many localities, Caley 'fur ther declared iir hla aliitehienf, motorists receive more considera tion than is desired. Frequently, be. said, they are directed to plough through groups of pedes trians at street crossings merely becajse they have the. right of wuy and because the truffle offi cer is peeved at tho pcdcBtrlans' disobedience of Ills signals. Under sucll circumstances the path of tuc motorist is fraught with dun gvr..und usually ho waits rather than lake u chance of Injuring someone. ''Caley declared tile association will endeavor to have automobile clubs throughout the country co operate with the association In a campaign to make street cross ings safe' for botli motorists und pedestrians.

Is one of the leaders i and proponents of the IJan-Kuro-j pe Society, which alius at a Uni ted States of Kurope, which will assume world leadership and will not include Great Britain. . The Pan-"Kurope Society pro poses; a roifrenco of all of the nations. .of Uuropo for the forma tion of a co-operating,, united Kurope. :mder one flag.

Kalcrgl ad mits there Is still much hattvd between the French and the Ger niuns, and this Is at present the chief obstacle to the scheme for unity, - but If Kranee refuses to with Germany .then Oer wlll go to' ItuflHiu.

The Great Kuropeun federation of states, as proposed, would be the greatest In the world, having a population ot 431 millions or people, us compared with 212 mil lions in Pun-America, 4oti mil lions In Kust Asia, 145 millions In the Husslan countries and 4f4 millions in the British KmpVe. The United States of Kurope project might well cause the world to stop and think if it were as near success us Dr. Kal crgl believes It to be. b it, any one In Kurope today who sees na tions bickering over petty differ ences can only consider the Unit ed States of KurQpe us a dream and a most Utopian dream at that. .'
