OFFICIALS SEE NEED i FOR TRAFFIC. RULES ON COUNTY HIGHWAYS Records In the offices of the chief
of police, of Richmond and of the county sheriff indicate-that more automobile 'accidents occur on the heavily traveled roads of the, county than in the streets of the city where traffic
is denser.
This situation 13 attributed to the absence of traffic regulation on the
county roads.
County and city officials who have given the question study have agreed
that the point has been reached wlysre
. poncing of the most used county high-
ways must be provided if the hazard
of rural travel is not to become ex cessive.
The prediction is made that when the legislature meets next year it will
be called upon to consider traffic regulation for the important state highways. Will Need Morgues
"The roads in Wayne county which
are used the most are state highways,
eatd a county official Saturday. "Next year there will be a decided increase
in traffic on the National road through
Wayne county because that road will
have been permanently improved ana open for service by that time. If
some plan for the policing of that road
through Wayne county is not adopted before the next touiing season I would
advl.se that several morgues be erect
ed along the highway between the
state line and Dublin.
City and county police officials ie-
- neve that if the state fails to provide for state supervision of traffic over its
highways that it will be necessary far
the county to undertake the policing
Ul or the state roads within the county.
The appointment of deputy sheriffs.
to patrol the roads on motorcycles, has been suggested. State Controls Roads The roads in Wayne county which require policing, officials say, are under the exclusive Jurisdiction of the state, the National road, the road between Richmond and Fountain City, and the Richmond-Liberty pike. Road patrols should requiref the operation of automobiles at speed not to exceed 35 miles per hour, itjs estimated. "I suppose, however, that before a speed limit could be established it would be necessary to fill up tho county jail once or twice to convince the speed fiends that their 'joyriding" days were over," remarked a police officer at a meeting where road policing was under discussion. "It has come to a pass where even the most careful driver is in danger of life and limb when he travels over the National road in this county," commented a c ounty officer. "The careful driver on a heavily traveled
road knows that he will not endanger himself or any other driver, but ho has no guarantee that some speeder will not lose control of his car and collide with him. Most motorists are safe and sane and they should be as much protected on the county roads as they are in the city." Traffic Is Heavy The density of traffic on the National road is indicated by the figures recently compiled by an oil company which is now constructing a filling station on the Indiana-Ohio line. The site was selected because careful observation showed that one vehicle passed that point every 23 seconds, equalling 3,756 vehicles per day.
The company figures that with a
paved road between Richmond and In-
dianapolis open for service next year
there will be a considerable increase in traffic density on the National road,
already the most used transcontinen
tal' highway in America.
Traffic hazzards on the National road, it is pointed out, are increased
tv the fact that a traction line par
allels it almost the entire distance be
tween Dayton and Indianapolis.

AMERICA FORMALLY
INVITED TO PARLEY; NOT LIKELY TO GO
(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S. Active
participation by the United States In the Near East peace conference to
be held at Lausanne, Switzerland, next month, was formally requested today by the British, French and Ital
ian governments through their diplomatic representatives here.
The invitation was handed to Secre
tary Hughes by Sir Auckland Geddes, the British ambassador, who was ac
companied to the state department by Charge Chambrun, of the French embassy, and Charge Rossi, of the Ital
ian embassy. The three allied envoys
spent exactly three minutes in the Sec
retary's office and left with little hope apparently that the invitation would be accepted. It was indicated that the formal American reply would not be given until the question had been talked over further among administration officials, but there was every sign that this government would go no further in participation in the conference than to designate an observer to be present at Lausanne, and to report developments to Washington.
