Protecting the Public
A new taw went into effect September 1 In New York
state, a similar law will be in effect in New Jersey on No-
' vember 15, while Connecticut naa naa a law oi xnm ium
for several years, which affects automobiliats. The law is
designed to provide protection for those who may be injured
or property damaged in motor vehicle accidents.
im.. i MAona that aiifniofa mnaf. Via ready, either with
X11C WW mcailO ...a. " ' . ,
Insurance, cash or bond to pay damages or forfeit driver a
jnd motor licenses, tub auio a river or otua
pponsible and those who evade or dodge the responsibility,
ere not to be permitted to operate motor vehicles in the
state. These licenses -will not be restored until the autoist
shows, either by insurance, bond or u,uw casn or collat
eral, that he will be able to pay future judgments. .
If someone's property is damaged, and the autoist is con
victed of certain violations of the laws such as speeding,
reckless driving, hitting and running or drunken driving he
cannot again operate a car until either insured, bonded, or
depositing f 11,000 collateral
Oregon could not do better than adopt a similar taw, for
the irresponsible driver constitutes one of the greatest men
aces of the day. It would eliminate a great many of our
reckless autoists. Massachusetts even goes further and
makes liability insurance a requisite for license thus elimi
nating worn out cars as a road hazard.
, Calendar Change
The Chamber of Commerce of the United States an
nounces a referendum among its membership on the much
discussed reform in calendar, which proposes a thirteen
month year. The agitation for this change is world wide.
It is proposed to establish by international action, a
year of thirteen months each of 28 days, which takes care
of 364 days. In midsummer of every year an extra day, two
days in leap years, would make up the required number. This
makes the week the basis of calculation, instead of the
month, which would be of great advantage to business. Sun-
day would always.! all upon the same days of the month. Hol-
, idays, such as Labor day, would always be September 2, the
Fourth orJulyon a Wednesuay.-Thanksgiving on November
26, etc. - A uniform date could be fixed for Easter.
The advantages in having the thirteen month year are
, obvious. All statistical comparisons with portions of other
years would be facilitated and corresponding dates would be
exact. Yet strong opposition can be expected, as humanity
is most conservative in such things. Already some of the
religious leaders of various sects are opposing it for Biblical
reasons. Yet the change could be made much more easily
than it was from the Julian to the Gregory calendar, when
wide spread rioting followed.
'SAFETY FIRSr

typically American slogan prompt
ed the Dornler company to build
the gigantic, 13 motored "Do X" tne
world's largest airplane, officials of
the company told the United Press.
"Do X" was designed and con
structed by Dr. Claudius Dornler,
It was declared, principally to
demonstrate that safety m the air
can be substantially Increased, and
secondarily to prors that airplanes
can be made to pay for themselves.
Asking "what Is today the cause of
most aviation accidents," Dornler
officials listed them as follows:
"The pilots have too much to
do. They are largely always over
worked. They must steer the air
craft, keep an eye on a multitude
of Instruments and at the same
tune navigate the ship. Moreover,
they are rarely protected against
weather changes.
"The motors are almost always
overstrained. They must run eon
stantly under full power. 13 top
ping them or repairing them In
midair Is hardly to be thought of
uaaoune and ou leedplnes and
parts of the steering aonaratus are
or ten maccessiDie. Hundreds of
emergency landings today can be
traced to auncuities arising In this
connection. Such f "'"f often
result In serious accidents. Bad
all parts of the apparatus and the
leeapipes seen luuy accessible,
emergency landings would have
been avoided In most or
cases.
"Fire forms a tragic chanter In
the history of aviation. The ma.
Jority of these fires have been due
to gasoline leaking from tanks
standing close to overheated mot
ors."
Explaining how some. If not all.
these drawbacks to safe flying have
been overcome, the Dornler offi
cials said:
Aboard the simians Tk X' ttia
puot can devote all his attention
solely to the task of piloting the
craic. us need not be omnipotent
or be a pilot engineer, navigator
and commander all In one. The
technical work will be handled by
an engineer, who will be assisted
by a number of specialists. The
commander will be Just that: he
wiu command the ship and the
crrew, determine tha course to be
followed and so forth. No one will
be overworked. Each will be able
to give his undivided attention to
his special task.
The danger of fire has been met
by placing the fuel tanks as far as
possible from the motors. They
are located In the deepest section
of the body of the ship (the 12 en
gines are located on top). This
section is made up of speclally-
constructed rooms."

Camp Smith, Peekskffl, N.Y.
Aug. 17th. I have shared the
soldier's cfgarette in pretty
nearly every corner of the
world, and I know how set in
his ways an army man can
get when it comes to knowing
what smoke he likes. So frank
ly the idea that a two year
old cigarette even if it did
have the name OLD GOLD
could win this test over three
old time brands seemed un
believable. But the thing worked out.
At Camp Smith, where I wit
nessed the test, OLD GOLD
put the bee on 606 Yanks of
the Old Seventh New York
regiment.
The Old Seventh went OLD
GOLD with 195 bull's-eyes as
against 144 for the next brand,
with the two other old timers
rating scores of 81 and 86.
What's more, this concealed
name test is as square as a
regimental parade ground.
