Hartford, Sept. 30.—In connection with “Safety Week” in Connecticut, thé motor vehicle department issues Umber of statements show- ing some oL the causes of automobile fatalities and giving statistics on ac- ciden! “irecorded in the depart- ment records. ’ Some of the important facts brought to theugttention of the public were: Children five years old returning from school in the afternoon are killed by automobiles in Connecticut in greater numbers than children of any other age More adults are struck by auto- mabjles while on their Way home from work in the afternoon than at any other time. More pedestrians than motorists are killed in automobile accidents. Twenty-five per cent of fatalities resulting from collisions between automobiles and bicycles are caused by bicyclists riding on the wrong side of tha road. The average number of fatalities per 10,000 automobiles jn Connecticut has decreased from 31.7 in 1916 to 18.6 last year. The greatest number of persons killed by automobiles are under 10 years of age. Persons between 20 and 30 years old rank next in the list of Connecticut fatalities; persons between 30 and 40 rank third in the total and persons between 10 and 20 rank fourth. The annual death rate in Connecti- cut from automobile accidents in- creased from 1905 to 1920, when there was a decline in the total. | | | CLEMENCEAU TAKES HIS ‘SILENCE CURE Returns From India Tired, Be- canse He Talked Too Much Paris, Sept. 30.—Former Premier Clemenceau took his recent “silence cure” in a medieval castle perched 1,500 feet above the blue waters of the Mediterranean at Olivese, on the Isl- and of Corsica. Nickolas Pietri, the owner of the castle, has been a life-long friend and newspaper associate of Clemenceau. Pietri is as deaf as the proverbial post. “I have travelled a lot since the armistice,” the former premier is re- ported to have said, “but in Indi Egypt, the Soudan, everywhere I have been, I have had to talk too much. Now what I want is siience. Am I sure to get that with Pietri. He is so deaf that I won't be tempted to volunteer any small talk to him and he is very actful in not asking questions, real- izing that the effort required for me to answer him is too much for my old lungs.”” Despite Clemenceau's plea of weak- ness and his age—S$1 years—he looks as sturdy as the oaks surrounding the castle. There are those who insist that the Tiger intends to re-enter the political arena and that in the peace and quiet ness of the little island which g birth to Napoleon, he has been pr paring for a reentry into public life that may be almost as startling as that of the little Corporal.
