The metion, members said, was aimed at “fnanclally irresponsible” drivers who injure Innocent persons and are unable to give satisfaction for the damage they do. The club also will seek an amendment of the right-of-way law, J. Leroy Hop- kins, counsel for the organization, said, providing that a driver on the right shall not have.the right of way unless his car reaches an intersection at ap- proximately the same moment as the driver on the left. A _motorist also would lose the right ©f way if he happened to be driving carelessly or beyond the speed limit, under the contemplated dment Becretary Lucius explained the rules a8 to spotlights.

The fourth or fifth cap- ital of antiquity, Carthage was a city of a million people at the helght of its power. Moreover, what fewer peo- ple know, is that Carthage was re- built after its destruction by the Ro- mans and then made, under Augustus, the Roman empire’s second city. In the number of its martyrs it is sec- only only to Rome, and it was once the world center of literature and learning, under St. Cyprian, St. Au- gustine and Tertulllan. The expedition leader will motion pictures of the excavation work which reveal the findifig of Baal-Moloch and remains of children i sacrificed there; the famous baths of Gargllius, and the teeth of elephants used in Hannibal's army.
