Collateral is sometimes increased in the very process of imposition because of the attitude of the arrested person toward the police. In short, in some cases the rule breaker is actually fined for “contempt of court,” when in truth there is no court. If the law is written to be enforced every violation of it should reach a court. Collateral should be taken only to insure the presence of the accused in court, as a measure of convenfence to the accused and not as a means of escaping with a trifling penalty. Under the present system it would be a great hardship to compe! every person arrested for a traffic violation to go to Police Court, with its delays and inconveniences.

And considering the amount of newspaper space given that “important” subject since the recent order of a large east- ern corporation barring bobbed-haired girls from employment, both in edi- torial columns and in “letters from readers,” one is almost convinced that the “problem” is quite as vital a disarmament or taxation. Editors show scant sympathy for the intrepid employment manager who declares that “all women who bob their hair are useless.” It is Interesting to note, however, that the discussion is much more a defense of that style of hair dress and the t of a woman to do as she pleases in the matter, than an attack on the right of an employer .to exert economic pressure to chec a custom of which he disapproves. Some writers. who frankly dislike the style, deny that it is an index of efficiency and scoff at what they consider a superficial standard. A few lonely voices express approval of the em- ployment manager, evidently appre- clating so foreceful a condemnation of horn tresses.” ASSOCIATION | Pays 6 Per Cent on shares maturing in 45 or 83 months.

Sometimes in the hot weather in the evening it is packed with vehicles. Its roads are filled practically with con- tinuous streams of motor cars.

The one-way rule is applied around the polo grounds and in front of the bathing beach, as has already been prescribed in the long drive around the eastern section below the bridges. Most of this traffic uses the tidal inlet bridge between the polo field and the Highway bridge. It is curved to a grade considerably above the park level and from each side it is approached from an angle. Care- ful driving is especially necessary at ob® point. The bridge is wide enough for Wwo streams of traffic, but without much guargin. As a matter of fact, it should % wider and the approaches should be straightened somewhat. This would involve some reconstruction of the bridge itself and an alteration in the park levels on both sides. Con- sideration of these possible changes is suggested, in the interest of greater public safety. Accidents in Potomac Park have been comparatively few, considering the immense volume of the traffic. But every condition making possible for mishap should be correct- ed in advance. The best precaution against disaster is that which is taken before the disaster comes, not after. —_————— ‘The publication of books on the world war will, it is hoped, soon he ships will disappear in the natural course of events. overskirt of same material.

He put it more tactfully, how- ever, saying that he had not been in court before. A hurried consultation of the records disclosed the fact that he had forfeited collateral no less than nine times.
