‘Bureau Seeks Means to |

Eliminate Hazards Shown By Death Toll.

Organizing its forces for the most extensive traffic safety campaign it has ever undertaken, the Accident Prevention Bureau today listed the danger spots in the city and sought means of eliminating the ‘hazards. At the same time, the Bureau was completing plans for distributing more than a million pieces of safety education literature late this month. Desperate to halt the mounting toll of accidents—more than 5800 this year, 65 of them fatal—Capt. Leon Troutman of the Prevention Bureau surveyed the giant accident map in the Bureau. It told the story this way: For this year, up until the beginning of this week, the map was dotted with 5736 tacks with bright coloredd heads, indicating that many accidents. Increase Over 1939 For the same period last year, the map showed only 5135 such tacks. This year’s map had 65 blackheaded tacks, indicating that number killed. Last year’s map at the same time showed 43 death marks. The fatal accidents occurred in all parts of the city, making it impossible to establish special vigilance at the death spots. Noble and Washington Sts. is the corner where the largest number of accidents have occurred this year, 31, but none of them caused a

Other dangerous corners and the number of crashes at them are: West and Washington Sts., 26; West and Michigan Sts., 21; Northwestern Ave. and 16th St., 16; 38th St. and Fall Creek Blvd., 14; 38th St. and College Ave., 9. There were no deaths at any of those corners. ; Dangerous Streets Listed

North and south streets on which ‘accidents were most frequent are West St., Northwestern Ave. Capitol| Ave., Illinois St., Meridian St., Central Ave. and College Ave. East and west streets most dangerous are, Washington St., 38th St, 30th St., 25th St., 16th St., 10th St. Michigan St., New York St., Prospect St. and Morris St. Washington St., stretching 10 milies through the City, has been the scene of 400 accidents this year. Fifty-five pedestrians havie been struck on this thoroughfare and six were killed. The Prevention Bureau wants stop and go lights or flasher signais at the intersections to the main streets, but funds are lacking. The safety literature will be distributed by business establishments in all parts of the City. A pamphlet is to be placed in a parcel handed to every customer. There will be window displays with pictures of accidents. School children ‘will be given pocket pieces with a safety slogan. STATE CAN MOBILIZE TRUCKS TAMPA, Ia, Oct. 11 (U.

United Confederate Veterans, said today that he applauds Southern chivalry and approves of woman suffrage but “dictation by women” is something else. He became so irritated by what described as “meddling” by women in the affairs of the U. C. V.

yesterday that he refused to permit an election of officers even

though he might have continued

tenure of office for another year.

Terminating a row resulting from women seeking to aid in the business deliberations of the aged veterans’ golden reunion here, Gen. Howell adjourned the session and

said that “maybe” he would allow an election today. :

“But no women will be allowed,’ he shouted. Some of the veterans left the hall in agresiment with their general, but others took exception to his stand. Little groups, mostly women, discussed the issue heatedly and some women asserted that they were the general's best friends but that they might have to see about impeaching him. The dispute came after Gen. Howell introduced an amendment to the U. C. V. constitution making it impossible to disband the organization as long as two members were able to attend a reunion. This year less than 60 attended and the average age was 94 years.

WE CANT LET THE NAZIS WIN. ROBINSON SAYS

Butler President Cites Threat to Democracy at " Christian Meet.

A Nazi victory will destroy democracy and irreparably injure Christianity, D. S. Robinson, Butler | University president, said last night. Speaking at the North American | Christian Convention at Cadle Tabernacle, he said that “a free church can exist only among a Iree peole.” “Christianity and democracy are by no means identical, but they are mutually and reciprocally . eomplementary,” Dr. Robinson said. Whatever injures one injures the other. So let us remain Christians and free men, even though this compels us to become Christian soldiers in the literal sense of the word.”

Suggests ‘Way Out’

“Here is my way out of this dilemma: History -teaches us that Christianity thrives best under a form of government that is tolerant to the existence of the Christian community as a separate society within the social order at large. “In our complicated modern is doomed to

ment makes this concession to our

“Contemporary events prove conclusively that the totalitarian regimes are all hostile to Christianity in so far as it seeks to maintain itself as a separate community within the social order at large. In fact, such a community is absolutely incompatible with the totalitarian conception of the state. “Christians are therefore justified in giving the democracies their loyal support against the totalitarian regimes. It is the duty of a Christian today to defend his country, providing he lives under a democratic form of government.”

Sees Two Choices

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

British Play 'Air Raid Golf"

OTTAWA, Ont., Oct. 11 (U.P.).— “Air raid golf,” in which the players wear tin helmets and honor rules that are a distinct innovation in the royal'and aneient game, was described to newspaper correspondents here today by Air Marshal W. A. Bishop who recently returned from England. “The courses in England are littered with obstructions designed to stop expected German invaders, but the \people still play air raid golf

{upon them,” Mr, Bishop explained.

“They carry tin helmets with them, and when a Hun plane swoops down out of the clouds—it very often happens—they run for any clump of trees or other shelter that may

be available, and resume their game when the danger is past. Then, in the play itself, they observe certain rules that the situation requires, for instance, when a ball hits one of the invasion obstructions that have been placed on the course, it is an unwritten law that, regardless of any ‘other circumstance, the player plays another ball without any penalty.”

PEDESTRIAN IS KILLED

LUE RIBBON PUPS COST MARCHIONNESS

AOSTA, Italy, Oct. 11 (U. P). — Marchionness Matilde Scarampi di Villanova and her daughter, Vittorina, have been expelled from the Fascist Party because they hung pink and blue ribbons on their door to announce the birth of two puppies. The ribbons ordinarily are used to announce the birth of a baby. The expulsion order said they had,

“with complete”lack of compreliension of the Fascist sensibilities profaned the symbol with which the party honors and salutes the birth

of new human lives.”

Dr. Robinson said that Mussolini joined Hitler with the cry that he would fight the decrepit democra- | cies. “The Rome - Berlin Axis has widened into the Rome-Berlin- | Tokyo Axis, and for the first time] in human history, nations that pre- | viously were regarded as Christian | have banded with a powerful nonchristian empire to destrdy the remaining democracies. of the world. “Today Christians are faced with the paradox of having to choose between a pacifistic and non-violent attitude that will weaken democracy in its efforts to defend itself against the aggressive warfare of the totalitarian axis powers, and a militaristic attitude that will emphasize the more mundane aspects of the Christian religion rather than the purely spiritual aspects. “This is a difficult dilemma for a Christian, and it is not surprising that there are many sincere Disciples. of Christ who tell us we should cease worrying over the plight and fate of democracy, but that we should intensify our efforts to bring men under the influerice of the personality of Jesus Christ. ‘We Can’t Let Them Win’ “Many other Christians who are just as sincere, admonish us to throw our support to those who are fighting to prevent the complete destruction of democracy as a form of government.” Warning that a totalitarian vietory would destroy Christianity, Dr. Robinson said: “We simply cannot let them win.” Other speakers yesterday included
