accidents is being undertaken under an authorization of $75,000 by Congress. Wallace is directing the study through the bureau of public loads. Particular attention is being given lo three phases of the highway safe-
ty problem:
1. Detailed study of the lack of unifonnity in state motor-vehicle laws. 2. Study of the characteristic* and hadits of drivers and identification of dangerous drivers. 3. Improvement of the basic data, needed for the study of accident causes and prevention. Last year approximately 100 persons were killed and 500 injured in automobile accidents every day on an average. A majority of these accidents occurred on open highways, where speeding was a contributory cause, the bur(nu said. The study is to include physical and psychological test of drivers to measure skill assumed to be essential
| to safe driving. It also Is expected to show whether data now collected j furnish an adequate basis for predict- , ing a driver’s future performance. “By measuring the skill and driving ability of numerous drivers, and comparing the results with their nc- ; cident records, it may lie possible to develop methods that will positively identify safe and unsafe drivers,’’ j
Wallace said.

GAGE MAY SHOW UNSAFE DRIYERS
WASHINGTON (UP) —Any person who has an automobile accident more frequently than once every 25 years should be “detected and watched,” according to Secretary of Agri-
culture Henry A. Wallace.
Wallace, in a report to Congress, quoted from a bureau of public roads report showing that the accident expenctancy of the average driver is
one accident in about 25 years.
“Therefore, drivers who have accidents more frequently than once every 25 years should be detected
and watched," Wallace said.
One step in this direction, he said,

Since her marriage last January, Prince** Juliana of Holland has "gone modern” to considerable extent. She and her new husband. Prince Bernhard zu Lippe-Biesterfield, spent most of their honeymoon touring the gay spots of Europe. The heiress to Dutch throne has taken off 17 pounds, improved her natural charm by the aid of beauty experts, and acquired a new wardrobe in the latest manner. As a result, the somewhat staid Dutch court over which Queen Wilhelmina has presided with Victorian austerity for many years, has taken on new life and gaiety

"No!" replied Big Toomai, to the groat sati: faction of his outraged neighbors. And forthwith, he marched the boy to a far corner of the compound, placed Kala Nag on guard over him, and commanded tke elephant: "Guard him closely, my wise one — lot him not move six paces." And Kala Nag, ever obedient to Iris master, saw to it that Little Toomai c!:d not move beyond the Eomi-circlo marked on the ground by his father. As the sun rose higher in the Leavens, Petersen Sahib approached the village with his caravan to ciioose the elephants and men for tne Keddah. And in the afternoon the caravan marched majestically into the main street, Petersen SahiD leading mop his huge elephant Pudmini, to take his stand and pass judgment on the elephants that would bo offered him for the hunt. Great excitement pervaded the village; women loaned out of windows jabbering and gesticulating; children turned out In swarms to see the show; v.hile the men, having scrubbed and curried their elephants. prepared to ride them out to be submitted to the great Sahib. Big Toomai came to the corner v.herc his son was being held priso..er. Paying no attention to the boy’s piteous pleas to be taken along, he mounted Kala Nag and rode off toward the main street and Petersen Sahib. "Father,” wailed the boy. “Am I Vot to see Petersen Sahib? Father — take mo with you!” He received no answer. Kaia Nag carried his master to the main street of the village where, In the shade of a great tree, Petersra Sahib roclired at his ease on the back of Pudminl the elephant, r o. rounded by his retinue, and Judged the elephants that were offered to him for the Keddah. With his keen, level gaze he qulckTy appraised each of the anlmaif asked

Meanwhile Little Toorr.r i nve a silent command to Kala N. ,. and was promptly raised up in the elephant’s trunk and held In front of the white man. "What Is your name, little one?" asked Petersen Sahib. "Have — have you eaten. Sahib?" replied the lad in a scared voice, peeping out from the fingers of h o hends held over his eyes. "Yes. I have eaten, but what mailers that?” "My grandfather taught m e never to speak to a white man until he was fed!” V/hen the shout of laughter from the crowd had subsided, PeterSahib asked: “Why did you tear i your elephant that trick’ Was it to help you steal green corn from th; roof** of houses?” “Not green corn, protector of th; poor.” said the bey innocently. "Melons!” Peterson Sahib, laughing with th; rest, told his clerk to accept K'la Nag for the Keddah. But Bi r Toomai stood by, shaking his h'Ml disapprovingly at the antics of his son "Shall I become a hunter of yours, Sahib?” Little Toomai asked. "You might one day." said Petersen Sahib. Now you shall come with me for the great drive and help me catch wild elephants.” And when the caravan started on Its long journey, winding over the hills and across the broad plain* of India, growing larger and ever larger as more elephants and men Joined It on Its way T.’ttle Toonr i wa.a to be found riding solemnly behind his father upon the back of Kala Nag.
