CHICAGO, 111., July 7. First honors today go to the weath
er. This is the first beautiful day we have seen since leaving
Medford the latter part of June. There have been a few rainy
days, a great many hot sweltering days, but not until today
has the atmosphere been clear, bright, cool, and invigorating.
In the weather reports there have been plenty of fair and
warmer predictions which were realized, but through the weeks
spent in the East, not a clear day there was always a thick,
oppressive haze, which obscured the sun, but increased the
humidity and the heat. The East was like a close room, without
a breath of fresh air stirring. But early this morning Chicago
opened the windows and the doors, the haze was swept away,
revealing a gorgeous, eloar, dark blue sky, while the sapphire
waters of Lake Michigan danced in the bright sunlight. It was
a perfect day to see the fair, and now with the day over, one
is not surprised to learn that all Saturday attendance records
for this year were broken.

The Denver nephew was up betimes, with two guide books
under his arm, one dealing with the Hall of Science, the other
with the Electrical Building, As one day had been spent, in
self education along these lines, the young man was persuaded
much against his will, to investigate some of the lighter phases
of this Century of Progress exposition. ,So we boarded a bus
for the Enchanted Island and the Midway.
Here was a sort of glorified street carnival, with the usual
side shows, merry-go-rounds,
traptions to extract from the pockets of the proletariat, their
hard earned dimes and nickels. The raucous barkers were busy
with their free shows before the main tent, and meeting as far

the inside of a concrete mixer which hadn't been oiled for thrco

which precluded

friends brought strong influence to

the young man served his time In
Jail. He and his friends Indignantly
declare he had had "only one or two"
drinks at the party they had attend'
ed. The familiar alibi. If I were 1
Judge one drink would be ample to
sustain the charge.
It seems to me that any person
who deliberately takes a drink
and then attempts to drive an auto
mobile deserves censure or punish
ment for recklessly endangering the
life and limb of the other driver or
the pedestrian who happens to cross
his path.
Now this Is an assertion of scien
tific fact and not a mere opinion of
a prejudiced crank. By actual mea
surements It haa been ascertained
that a person who has had one or
two little drinks Is from one-fifth to
two-fifths of a second slower In re
acting to a signal, if auch a person
sees another driver bearing down on
him or a pedestrian crossing in front
of him or a child darting out from
the curb, he takes precisely one-fifth
to two-fifths of a second longer to
decide what he Is going to do about
It, and meantime the accident has
happened.
Owing to the large number of
drinkers In the population and their
traditional attitude In respect to
scientific teachings concerning the
effects of alcohol, the law Is very
lenient for drunken drivers and in
deed the great majority of them get
away with maiming or murder.
The drunken drivers that escape
accidents because the other driver or
the pedestrian happens to be sober
and alert, are the most prejudiced
of all, for thoy assume that because
they habitually drink and then drive
without accident, all this stuff about
alcohol retarding the reaction time
la a lot of hooey. Such persons on
Jury are sure to sympathize with
the driver who exercised his liberty
even at the price of maiming or kill
ing someone.

I am told he Is beginning to feel
the first faint tingle of frost. More

his family away from the diamond.
He shrinks from visiting those places

THAT 00 HIKE
Frequently we see statistics of the
frightful havoc wrought by automo
bile trafflo and pleas to drivers to
obey the law and the rules of the
road and to be careful. Since the
law Is so lenient In Interpreting
drunken driving, and since so many
people like a. little drink themselves,
the automobile will doubtless long
remain our most deadly weapon. In
stead of urging drivers to be careful
we should beg them to be sober. Or
If that seems too much like Inter
ference with their personal liberty,
then put it this way: No one Is quite
fit to take the responsibility of driv
ing within an hour or two after i
drink or two. Many who do like f
drink have an excellent rule:.
Don't drink If you have to drive
home, or don't drive If you've had
drink.

Comment

Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
rID you happen to notice this ex
" ceedlngly political dispatch from
Sacramento:
"Governor Frank Merrlam's troop
call was the subject of wide discus,
slon among state officiate today.
Opinion seemed equally divided on
the question: 'Will It hurt or help
Merrlam In his campaign for gover
nor?' "
IT la significant of a lot of things
that all us that nobody seems to
have stopped to ask: "Is It the thing
he OUGHT to have done?"
IJEHB are two more political dls-
patches, one from Chicago, the
other from Washington:
The Chicago dispatch reads:
"Republican leaders headed by
Henry P. Fletcher, new national
chairman, opened a three-day 'pep
meeting' here today to drum up con
gressional votea In the Middle West."
The Washington dispatch reads:
"Chairman Farley, of the Demo
cratic national committee, completed
plana today for a five weeks speaking
tour of the west to advance the cause
of party members In the forthcoming
congressional elections."
pHEHE'a a lot of talk about the
New Deal, and whether It la pop
ular or not, and at least one national
straw vote la trying to find an answer
to that question.
The REAL answer wUl be given this
fall, when members of congress are
elected. If the Democrats are uni
formly successful In these elections,
the New Deal will be regarded as a
success. But If they lose heavily to
the Republicans, the New Deal will
be looked upon as a failure, and the
politician will begin to look around
for something else.
