Homicides and murder are dealt with forcibly. The record of homicides as compared with motor vehicle fa- talities shows that a man who murders with a gun is a little fellow as com- | pared to the reckless driver who kills with an automobile. Both should be required to suffer the full consequences | of the law. | /D) \. STARTING TOMORROW Miss Smith Weds Mr. Roy L.
