DEMOCRATS JOIN IN
FIGHT ON THIRD TERM
WASHINGTON, opt. 2 QU. Py — Democratic Senators today bolstered Congressional opposition to suggestions that President Roosevelt seek
a third term in the White House.
Mounting speculation on prospects for the 1940 Presidential campaign indicated that the third-term issue would lead to a bitter and—to some Senators—embarrassing conflict in Congress long before the political strategists actually get down to work on the question of a successor to Mr.
Roosevelt.
Senator Holt (D. W. Val), a persistent foe of the Administration, announced that he would introduce at the next session a resolution opposing a third term as “unwise and
unpatriotic.”
QUESTION SUSPECT IN FATAL SHOOTING
E. A. Stewart, 23, of 940 W. Walnut St, was held for questioning today in connection with the fatal
shooting of Horace Davis, 39, of 1001 Colton St. He died in City Hospital following an alleged gun battle last night in front of his home.
Witnesses said Davis and three other men stopped in front of his
home and began an argument. Da-
others returned fire and Davis feil, | police said.

speed than weight of the body should permit. He cited a recent accident in which an automobile crashed into an abutment. “The driver was mangled beneath the engine, which had been forced back into the car by the impact,” Mr. Cox said. He said the conditions of wreck2d cars today are as bad or worse than they were in the days of wooden body frames and 50-mile-an-hour engines. Lower Speed Safer
“That's why this safety drive the police are putting on now is work-
“They're cutting down the number and seriousness of accidents by reducing speed.” He said that during June, before the drive started, the five City Hospital ambulances averaged 20 runs a day. Last month, the average
was 15. “We can notice the difference when we drive through town,” the mercy driver explained. ‘Motorists

Hospital ambulances go through the city at a break-neck rate of speed.
On the contrary, their speed on |
