Various of its states went in for government ownership on an unprecedent- ed scale—hbesides transportation and ser- vice industries, the state operated hotels, j ti stores, amuse™ent places and almost every | standard buciness. The total result was gigantic deficits, followed by growing taxes which the people of Aus- tralia, could not carry. Government bonds | dropped to a fraction of par. That is en old story.

Where the balance of trade was adverse, it became favorable. And Aus- tralian bonds have been steadily rising in the world markets. There is a lesson in this for other gov- ernments. tive, but it doesn’t pay. When goverhment operates economically and effectively, it is an influence for prosperity. When it is wasteful and bureaucratic, the influence is toward depression. High taxes—bur- dens on industries and individuals—poli- . tieal red tape—these are always the ene- | tions mies of progress. FIGHTING THE RECKLESS DRIVER This year the month of September has been dedicated to the most intensive cam- paign in the interest of automobile accident prevention ever carried on in this country. The governors of 34 states and the commissioners of the District of Columbia have issued prociamations and messages. More than 90,009,000 persons—74 _ per- cent of our total population—live in their areas. Seventy-five percent of all auto- mobiles in the country are registered with- in them, and last year about 75 percent of tne 29,000 accidents occurred in the par- icipating territory. In 1932 there was a decrease in auto- mobile accidents and fatalities, as com- pared with 1931. This year the trend has been reversed, and the toll is again on the upgrade. The reckless, the discour- teous »nd the incompetent still rule the highwevs. The public streets and roads are still shambles both for persons and for property. Oniy the individual motorist can con- quer this organized destruction. There are few such thizgs as unavoidable accidents. And it -has been proven that raising the safety tactors of roads and vehicles does no good—the driver simply trusts to the engineers and operates his car even more recklessly. During the September campaign,:facts and figures detailing the havoc wreaked by excessive speeds, by violations of right- of-way laws, by passing on curves and hills, by that most common of all motoring ills, discourtesy, will be brought to our atten- And_all_of us_should consider, it both a duty and a privilege to cooperate. CITIES RENAMED Those of us who got our smattering of politica’ geography back in the nineteen- th century lave seen much of it repealed by the changes which have followed the World War. The map of Europe as we imperfectly knew it is now something vastly different. The names of several of the world’s most famous capitals have been changed, some of them twice. St. Petersburg was changed to Petro- grad early in the World War, and after the rise of Lenin to power it was called Leningrad, and so remains. Norway's capital, Christiana, reverted to its ancient name of Oslo. Pekin or Peking was chang- ed to Peiping. The old favcrite spelling test, Con- ing, which has so impressed itself upon! stantinople, has been abolished, and that the minds of consumers, that when they | ask for geeds, they call it by dealer's name instead of by article.
