Reports of automobile accidents, in the United States to date indicate that deaths from Buch cause in 1925 will ex ceed 20,000 which averages a death every GO minutes. And those injured in such accidents, it is estimated by in surance companies, will exceed 200,000, of automobiles in use has greatly increased, carnage wrought 1'iid injuries inflicted are not to be figured as necessarily subject to corresponding increase. The figures above cited arc, in large part, to be listed as the toll that the nation pays to carelessness on the part of motorists and pedes trians. For most automobile accidents are avoidable. The great majority of them are attributable to speeding, to reckless driving, to joy riding, to intoxication at the steer ing wheel, to failure to exercise proper care as to safety 'appliances, to lack of care on the part of pedestrians and ,tOOthW' WW1WSS. .-,,.KI v .. ,,,,, ..(MUII-I- Jl ( I The above figures should drive home to (the highways tho need for exercise of proper care.

On tho other hand it will comfort the others who are ipiite willing to accept in exchange for .magnitude the comfort and satisfaction that arc possible within a smaller community. t All this is another leniainder of the fatuity of empha sizing mianlity at the expense of everything else. It has hundreds of examples, many of them familiar lo every thinking person. There is no profit in having the largest I hennery in the district if the hens do not lay eggs. There is no satisfaction in living in the largest city if norma living on that account, is made impossible. City planners appaicntly have come lo see that ther is less advantage in great over-grown communities, ill managed and badly laid out than in communities when attention can be given to air, light, safety, attractiveness comfort and other factors that make life, livable.
