FRESH GRAVEL IS CAUSE OF WRECKS Motorists Arc Warned That Regravelling Is Being Done At Present The season is again at hand when most of the regravelling of roads Hi done. Already the death toll has start-, ed from accidents caused by gravel being dumped and not spread. Re-] ports to this effect*have been received' by the Hooster State Automobile Association and in one instance two young men who were graduated last year from Purdue University wore killed In an accident south of El wood. The difficulty, according to the automobile association officials, is that it la difficult for the motorist to see the gravel because of dust or of other vehicles. Sometimes when the gravel can be seen it may be aloug a road where 1 every place else the- gravel has been spread and in this particular place a few loads have been left dumped in a pile and not spread. In the case near Elwood, It was difficult to sea the fresh gravel because 1 of dust and by the time the boys real- : izeil that they were up to fresh gravel : they could not prevent getting into ; the gravel which was piled and the car began to zig-zag and iu its zigzag movements struck a cattle truck which resulted iu the death of both ; boys. All citizens are urged to join the as- ' sociatiou and appeal to the county : road superintendents, county comntis--1 sioners, township authorities and other individuals to see that the gravel 'is spread and not left in piles and 4iut any other precaution, such as the use ' of a warning sing or else lanterns are used to prevent accidents.
