Good Meals Her Idea For Curing Of Traffic Ills Good breakfasts leavened with a cheery smile and served by a bright -eyed bouse wife in a fresh, crisp frock is the latest receipe for cutting down traffic accidents. Thf Idea is ponorcd by Mrs. James .V. !owney, of the safety division of the Ih'troit police department and chairman of the women's safe ty committee. "(live a man n well -cooked breakfast. Send him off with a smiling face and half of the traffic troubles will-Just vanish into thin air." said Mrs. lovney In outlining her plan to officials of the Dodge Hrotheis corporation. "Send him off with quarrels and no breakfast and he Is furious at the world- le steps into hkt auto mobile and drives onto the city's ht reels hating the w orld. He doesn't care aho.it ih, other fellow. Then accidents happen! "Women haven't any idea how important their conduct is in tho whole matter of traffic." Mrs. Dow ney explained. "The breakfast table is of' flt-Nt import. Keep men happy and good tem pered and they won'r quarrel witlt their fellow drivers.-Any employer will tell you how quiekly be can tell which of his men are unhappy at home. The same uppljes to auto mobile drivers. Ask any police of ficer how frequently Stp-inlers tell them they are breaking traffic laws because they've jUsi had a quarrel with the w if'-." And Mrs. Downey practices wh u sho preaches. E cry morning of her life she semis her husband, a deputy sheriff, off to work with .i fine bivukfusl o torrtdgv, tinist. fruit and coffee. ".And h nevr has' an nutomo bilo accident. 1 can a.ssure you!" the wife added. -Mrs. Dow nt y pointed out other ways In which women can help ma terially in reducing traffic acci dents. They are the worst offen ders, she maintains, when it comes to jay walkimr. If they would obey the traffic laws when they lip walking nnd stop their annoying habit of "hack-seat" driving when they mi riding w ith their men folks, it would save time. iroul;e and even lives in many cases, Mrs. iowney declares.
