THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, GREED, NOT SPEED, CAUSES AGCIDENTS Hogging Road and Showing 0ff Blamed for Much of Motoring Danger. Greed, not speed, is responsible for the difficulty in keeping motoring on la safer plane, in the opinion of Ru | dolph Jose, local Cadillac dealer. Speed in itself can even b= an ele- ment of safety, he contends, but as modified with greed it becomes the basis of most aceldents According to Mr. Jose, one type of automobile driver desires to speed when he is not entitled to the priv- ilege, while another type of driver feels he is not enjoying equal rights unless he drives as fast as other peo ple who may have a legitimate reason for driving fast “I am inclined to think the matter of speed with an automobile is greatly misunderstood by reason of the ele- ment of greed,” he adds. *T think it is greed, and nothing more that causes a motorist to speed up when some one is trving to pass him. The motorist being passed feels that he is not enjoying as many privileges as he thinks he is entitled to As a result he paves the way for an accident by standing in the way of the other fel low’s safety Speed to Draw Attention. “A very large percentage of fast driving over the highways is nothing more nor less than a desire to hog the road and usurp all the available privileges. The sort of driver who goes in for this sort of thing finds that speed is the only thing that will enable him to gratify this desire. His car {8 not sufficiently attractive to ttention to him, 8o he steps on greed, not speed, that causes drivers to run into each other at street intersections. One is trying to beat the other to it. If speed were the only factor involved each driver would consider the possibility that some one else might also be in a hurry, and each would approach the intersection more cautiously. Drivers who speed legitimately recognize that they are taking certain liberties but are very careful not to exceed the greed limit.” The Most Popular Closed Car Ever Built In the Tudor Sedan, Ford dependability . of chassis and engine, are matched with an attractive, sturdy and unusually well- designed body.

A W. Herrington of the Motor Transport Division of the Quartermaster Corps, U. 8. A. Maj. Herrington's discussion is expected to be a direct answer to a recently published article on ‘‘Roads, Motor and Rail.” by Judge George W. Anderson of the Circuit Court of Massachusetts.
