NO STICKER IS WORTH AN ACCIDENT OR A PERSON'S LIFE! At night, drive so that you can stop your automobile within the distance illuminated by your headlights. This is very important, especially as to pedestrians.
Approximately 50 of the persons killed by automobiles are pedestrians, and from eighty to ninety per cent of these victims never drove an automobile, consequently they do not realize the danger fnvolved; if they did, they would not walk where they do. When you are driving at night, pick out the farthest point where the highway is clearly illuminated by your headlights and try to stop. This will clearly prove to you NOT TO DRIVE FASTER Friendly tips for motorists on how to avoid accidents and how to save lives are contained in a letter to the editor from William R. Hanna, lieutenant of the Pennsylvania Motor Police at Washington, Pa. Because it deals with the fall season's falling leaves and football crowds, it as apropriate at this time.
The letter follows: Pennsylvania Motor Police Troop S-l, Headquarters Washington, Pennsylvania October 11. 1940 TO THE EDITOR: Continuing our policy of education and cooperation with the motorists, the Pennsylvania Motor Police, with Headquarters at Washington, Pennsylvania, wish to call to the attention of the motorists in southwestern Pennsylvania the following information: During the fall season, give careful consideration to leaves which have fallen on the highways, and although they are dry on top, they may be holding moisture underneath which makes it almost im-posisble to stop an automobile in an emergency. Crowds, especially young people, are asked to drive carefully to and from football games so that they may live to enjoy other games. The managements of various games are requested to make an announcement near the close of each game asking their patrons to drive carefully on their way home. We are continuing our policy of having officers patrol the highways lead ing to these games whenever possible.
Dower your headlights when approaching another automobile. Do as you want the other driver to do. We are endeavoring to educate all drivers to do this. We are having considerable trouble with stickers of various kinds, especially tchool and cam- ri.iirn stickers. The only legal sticker is the Inspection Sticker.
When the officers ask the motor ists to remove a flag or patriotic sticker, the officers are accused of enforcing a petty regulation and being unpatriotic; if an election sticker, the officers are accused of favoring the opposition. Remember, a sticker might, and has been known to be responsible for causing a pedestrian to be struck by THAN YOUR LIGHTS. We have been unable to reduce the number of accidents this year. We are supervising schools, examining new operators, checking the inspection of motor vehicles, trying to educate and, finally, enforcing by making arrests. We would rather not have to make arrests, if we can reduce the number of accidents by any of the ways mentioned.
If arrested, remember, you may be discharged before the magistrate, the justice of the peace or in Court, but you still may have to attend a Departmental hearing, with a possibility of losing your operator's license. We want each operator to ask himself "What am I doing to help?" If you are driving and trying to obey the law and another driver operates his automobile recklessly or passes you at more than fifty miles an hour, continue to obey the law and do right, and, if not at that instance, we will get the illegal driver later. Watch your friends or neighbors drive, and call attention to their mistakes. Help to make our highways safer! Your cooperation is appreciated. For Highway Safety, William R.

"Emphasizing safe bicycle operation, the new safety materials are part of the 'Facing and Avoiding Danger' series which children and teachers are finding so interesting and colorful, Voy Laco*ck, Club Manager said in announcing that the safety aids are being sent now to the schools.
With the slogan "Drive Bicycles Close to Right Edge," the AAA poster is in two colors and pictures two bicycle riders in the lane closest to the curb out of danger from fast-moving automobiles. Many teachers are seeking materials to help them impress on children dangers from careless bicycle riding, Mr. Laco*ck pointed out in citing the fact that of 700 bicycle drivers killed last year ni collisions with motor vehicles, exactly half of them, 350, involved children between 5 and 14 years of age. In addition, 18,500 children of the same ages, were injured in collisions between bicycles and motor vehicles. The music composer, Rosseau, imagined a phantom walked incessantly beside him.

STEWART Central Press Columnist EARLY dispatches didn't mention the extraordinary precautions taken to protect Fuehrer Hitler and Duce Mussolini at their recent Brenner Pass confab. Later advices told all about them.
Official Washington is wondering why it was necessary tosafe-guard the two dictators so elaborately. It appears that they traveled, Adolf from Berlin and Benito from Rome, to the village of Brennero, each in a heavily armored train. i tually the Charles P. Stewart cars were tanks, equipped to run on rails. Each train carried with it a strong antiaircraft battery.
No lights were shown. The conference took place in Benito's private coach and diner. Its windows were of bullet-proof glass. The lines, in both directions, were formidably patrolled. Now, for what reason or reasons was such elaborate preparation deemed essential? The only possible answer seems to be that Adolf and Benito were afraid of being bombed from overhead, dynamited from underneath or shot at from alongside, either going or coming from Brennero.
Yet Brennero, away inland, would appear to be pretty remote from any locality over which British planes might be expected to be soaring. Consequently, Washington observers' guessing is that John Bull's aviators must have Der Fuehrer and II Duce more scared than they'd imagined previously. Only Partially Explanatory That would account for the boiler plate aloft and the anti-aircraft guns. But it doesn't explain the Nazis' and Fascists' evident anxiety lest one or the other or both of the two trains be blown up from below, or that somebody take a pot shot through a car window laterally. Tracks couldn't be mined and sniping from the ground level wouldn't be practicable except by local (German or Italian) talent.
The conclusion is that Adolf and Benito are mightily suspicious of elements hostile to them in their own respective countries. They may not be large elements, but even an individual's act is liable to dispose of a dictator, if the individual is willing to take the consequences. i And there are such individuals. Benito was shot at once (and hit, though not fatally) and, not so -long ago, Adolf narrowly missed being blown up at Munich. A goodly number of Germans traditionally have a decidedly anti-autocratic streak and the German Jews certainly must hate Adolf.
Benito also, when he was getting his start, was exceedingly rough in suppressing the opposition to him. Maybe some of the folk whom the Fascists castor-oiled during their initial activities are still on the lookout for a chance to liquidate him. It's to be borne in mind that we Americans and British have hardly an idea how much anti-Hitlerism and anti-Mussolini-ism may prevail today in Germany and Italy; their censorships keep the news bottled up too tightly. Official Washington's notion is that, perhaps, Adolf and Benito are sitting on domestic powder kegs that we don't realize. Those Brennero precautions, however, are seen as hinting at the possibility that Adolf and Benito realize ail about it.
Even (he For that matter, folk who know Nippon also are aware that the Japanese are not, in general, as totalitarian as their government indicates. For a long, lrng while the Jap masses have been revolutionarily s'zzling against the military class, which bosses the Mikado and his ministry. The war in China hasn't been a bit popular. If the militarists succeed speedily in making a success of their tie-up with Germany and Italy, they probably will get away with it. But let Germany and Italy show any signs of wobbling, and a Jap governmental overturning is a good proposition to bet on.
It's overdue, by a generation. When I lived in Japan, years ago, Jap newspapermen, with whom I mainly associated, already were surreptitiously boosting for it. The nub is: Are these totalitarians as strong they appear to be? In fact, do i they themselves think they are Or are they tolerably uneasy right at home, in their own various countries Washington (I don't know about London) begins to believe so. Kane, Pa. Oct.
