OF STEIWER AND MOTT
There has been some criticism of Senator Fred Steiwer
and Itepresvnii.tive James Mott by the press and Individuals
for not climbing on the administration bund wagon ami
voting for the so-called economy bill even (hough it meant
repudiating their pre-election promises. However, analy

DEATH ON WHEELS
Three hundred and twenty-five thousand Americans
have been killed in motor car accidents in the past fifteen
years. That is more than the total number of American
soldiers who were killed during the Great War. Last year,
according to carefully cci.ipiled statistics kept by the
Travelers Insurance company, there were twenty-nine
thousand motor vehicle deaths. This is a reduction from
the thirty-three thousand live hundred deaths from ih!s
cause in 1931, but it must be remembered that there were
a great many fewer cars on the road last year than tl.er«
were the year before. Every death of this kind is a senseless,
useless waste of life for no good purpose.
It is not enough to say that fatal accidents are the fault
of careless drivers; th» situation calls for some way of in
suring against carelessness in driving. The best insurance
of this is requiring everyone who drives a car to be licensed,
after a rigid examination into his or her ability to drive
carefully, and then to enforce strictly the laws forbidding
any unlicensed driver to sit behind a steering wheel and
punishing the licensed driver for any accident which causes
injury to persons or property. In the half dozen state in
which such laws and regulations exist the proportion of
automobile accidents is lower than anywhere else.
Automobile drivers are not always at fault. While 44
percent of the persons killed by automobiles last year were
pedestrians who were struck by cars, nearly half of those
were killed by their own carelessness, either in crossing
streets against signals, crossing diagonally between street
intersections, or stepping out into traffic from behind park
ed cars.
No sane person would think of letting a boy or a girl
handle firearms without making sure that they thoroughly
understood the danger inherent in their use and knew per
fectly well how to handle them. But people who shudder
at the idea of giving children firearms to play with let them
run automobiles without any evidence that they have the
necessary skill and presence of mind and intelligence to
handle them safely. Ten times as many people are killed
every year by automobile accidents as are killed by the
accidental discharge of firearms. We have not yet learned
how to control the motor car.

BAD MEN BACK IN JAIL
- After -^sensational jail break Andrew Morgan and
Frank Fallon are back behind the bars in the county jail.
They knocked out the jailer with a stick of wood and
escaped. After a chase of several days through the wooded
country west of Eugene, without food or shelter, these two
bold, bad men were as meek as lambs. Sheriff Tom Swarts
and the state officers were after them day and night. Their
capture was a good piece of police work.
The capture of one when he came into the road to read
a sign post direction and the other later by two farm boys
was a poor climax after a sensational break. These two
prisoners may be “tough eggs” in the city but after a few
days in the wide open spaces with the officers at their heels,
they were complete “washouts.”
If Chicago had nearby mountains to chase their city-
bred gangsters into in a few months they could completely
eliminate them. Cold and hunger are the polices’ best allies.

Suddenly he went to her and took
her by the arms.
“ Y o u ’re a good little soul,” he
said.
" I love you,” Pauline said w ith

She felt perfectly happy, even
though she was leaving Dennis. She
