Additional fortifications projected for Gibraltar, and the increasing importance of the island fortress in view of new troubles which threaten in the Mediterranean, focus attention on the stormy history of the massive promontory. Since 711 A. D. when the Arabs seized the rock and held it as a Mediterranean fortress, Gibraltar has ranked as one of the most important natural fortifications in the world. In addition to being an important link

Donald Kooken of state police, said. "It is probbale she either read of the slaying in the papers or had n strange mental abberatlon which caused her to register on the lie detector when certain questions as to the slaying were asked," Kooken said.

in the life-line of Britain's empire, the possession is valuable as a coaling station and repair docks for ships sailing the Mediterranean. It is a miniature colony in itself, governed by General Sir Charles Harington, who rules over the fortress and town whose population is one-fifth soldiers and sailors. Britain has been in control of Gibraltar since 1411, when a combined British and Dutch fleet wrested control from Spain. •

The detailed engineering, enforcement and educational technique of the states and cities now doing outstanding work will be made available to the i country at large, as one of the in- ' itfal steps in the big program. The formal resolution, passed unanimously by the executive committee at its November meeting in ’ Chicago, "pledges the council's whole-hearted assistance and the active efforts of thousands of its members in all parts of the country and invites the cooperation of all interested organizations and agencies to the end that during this five-year program at least 38,000 lives shall be save* and the killing and maiming of little child- i ren and all our people shall cease upon our highways." The time is particularly propitious, since the 1935 toll of death and injury promises to approximate the tragic experience of 1934 when 36,000 people were killed, i and a million an da quarter others injured—of whom 150.000 will be 1 crippled for the rest of their days.

The resolution sets forth that this situation "presents the most serious challenge to all who believe in a well-ordered society and the sanctity of human life.” Certain states and cities through their fine programs during recent years have clearly demonstrated that such an achievement is possible. ~.eir expedience shows that motor vehicle tragedies can be not only controlled, but actually reduced. Striking evamplee are the work of state-wide organizations in Minnesota. Massachusetts and elsewhere. Twenty-three states have reported fewer deaths so rthe first nine months of 1935 than for the corresponding period of last year, including Rhode Island with a 31 per cent decrease: Oregon, 16 per cent; Massachusetts, 14 per cent; and Minnesota. witH an eleven per cent reduction. Likewise, many cities and towns through intelligent efforts, are realizing big reductions so far tnls year. The council already has a huge functioning organization ready to proceed with increased vigor under the impetus of this larger and more Intensive program. The fourth year of the national traffic safety contest, now under way, shows that 33 states and more than 800 cities are entered. o ENGLAND SEEKS TO CONT'NUED PHOM r.AOE ONE emn warning to Italy that warlike measures against Britain would mea.n warlike measures against Franse and all the league of nations.

Parks, who has a wife and eight children, was sentenced by Judge Clyde C. Carlin in Lagrange cir- - cult court. Parks was arrested in 1933 after he confessed wounding his brother-in-law.

IFARM COLONIES | CALLED FAILURE Montreal. (U.R) "Back-to-the- ' land" movements, adopted in many countries us u means of solving unemployment problems in large ‘ cities, are dangerous experiments, I according to the conclusion reached by three McGill university professors in u book on "The British Immigrant," written after a careful study of colonization schemes , The three professors, Dr. Carl A. Dawson. L.loyd G. Reynolds, and Prof. L. C. Marsh, believe that the possibilities of city residents making a success on the land are limited. Calls Price Too Great "The re-organization of the occu-1 Rational abilities of mature persons ; is a long-time process and involves great uncertainty.” they as- i ; sert. “The price is too great from every point of view and it seems most unwise to attempt to recon-; stitute agriculturalists out of persons who have dweTt for many years in urban centers." j Dr. Dawson declares that sclen-1 ' title findings have convinced him : that the Province of Quebec's great ’ scheme of placing people back on ; the land is doomed because living ’. off the land is a myth and a popu--11 lar fallacy. Sure Livelihood Doubted Dr. Dawson disproves the as- ■ sumption that settlers can live off • the products of their farms directI ly and need sell little to outsiders! I or purchase little from them in I turn by quoting other authorities I to show that the farmer who is i' able to furnish directly from his I farm one-third of the total expeni diture for family needs is lucky. II “As the farmer approaches the • point where a very small proporI tlon of his living is obtained by ;' selling his products and purchasing goods and servTs with the pro- . ceeds," he declares, “his standard . of living becomes excessively low. Farmers ‘live off the land,' but s from the most part indirectly by ' ! way of accessible markets. An accessible market is a fundamental pre - requisite of modern settlement." —o Wabash Plea For City Plant Upheld l | Wabash. Ind..
