run low and rapidly. Other cities have them. Just the thing! WALTER HALLERS. 715 N. Capitol Ave. Get Reckless Driver, Is Woman’s Advice. This is the only safe traffic rule: GET THE RECKLESS DRIVER. Regardless of traffic rules, speed limits, corner cops, etc., one wild driver will endanger the lives of hundreds of other motorists and pedestrians. The careful driver or Innocent pedestrian is often the victim, while the culprit remains unharmed and often unchastened. If such persons were obliged to spend a few days in jail for first offense (if proved guilty) and If they were not allowed to drive a car for six months or a year after the second offense the laws we already have would be observed and new ones woul£ be unnecessary. We might change the laws every week and still not make driving or walking safe. Just obey the ones we have, and make your friends and fellow citizens obey them. Likewise SAFETY FIRST. MISS LUELLA W. CRAIG, 931 N. Illinois St. Would Have Walkers Give Sign to Driver. Cut the speed limit to fifteen miles an hour and enforce It to the letter. Fifty dollars fine and thirty to sixty days In jail will turn our streets from a speedway to safe and sane thoroughfares. A law prohibiting any machine from passing another within twentyfive feet of any street intersection. Street cars and autos should pass together east and west, then north and south. Pedestrians should cross east, north and south while all traffic is stopped. License numbers should be of cut out type, to be illuminated hy rear light same as street car sign. Pedestrians must be required by law to cross streets at Intersections. If machine is approaching closely give driver signal which way to pass you by beckoning hand In front or rear. There should be more speed cops. Let them travel around our city streets for speeders any day or night. They can easily pick up 500 to 1,000 violators of otir present laws. If you want less accidents, this is the most Important thing to do. WILLIAM J. QUINLAN. 308 Sanders St.

Wow! He’d Prevent Crossing on Street. I suggest stopping pedestrians from crossing streets any where and everywhere, and when this is done the motorists will be able to speed up when the signal go Is given without having pedestrians slow him up, and will be able to get three blocks Instead of one. That in my opinion will be a good way to relieve the congestion. . J. M’COLLUM, 3635 Stanton Ave. Praise Is Given to Indianapolis Police. So far as traffic officers are conI cerned, the Indianapolis traffic men are fine, much more efficient than you will find in Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and other large cities. If the motorist would drive with cere and keep his motor and brakes in responsible condition, traffic would move with safety at the downtown corners, provided the jaywalkers could be kept under control. Pedestrians should move with traffic, always keeping to the right. J. WALKER, 317 E. Vermont St. TRAINMEN MEET TO DISCUSS WAGE INCREASE Sentiment Among Men Favers Demand for More Money.
