HATCH Insuror CITY BALL 1300. | state, |are | TO NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1922 tate Motor Vehicle Dept. Issues Regulations in “N Accident Campaign” I'allowing is the bulletin sent out by the state motor vehicle department for 4 “No accldent campalgn” in this giving rules and regulations for the governing of trafMc which are ex- pected to lower the accidents which oceuring dafly: AL, CHIEFS OF OTHER POLICE AND PERSONS INTERESTED IN THE SAFETY CAMPAIGN IFOR LESS MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS: The co-operative plan in which we are at present engaged is being well received by the press and public at large, The actual plan has not been in operation long enough at this time s0 that any definite results can be quoted. In a general way, the work is taking form throughout all of the large cities in the state and is being extended through the Motor Vehicle Department and State Police Depart- ment on the highways between cities, The following is the suggestion of the Motor Vehicle Department for a program during the month of May: Speed. A continued attempt on the part of the city police departments to insist upon less speed on city streets is sug- gested. The analysis of accidents by cities, just begun to be sent out by the Motor Vehicle Department, demon- strates conclusively that the majority of accidents oceur at interscctions. Speed, to such an extent as to place the car out of absolute control, is an element in each of these accidents. In order to be effective, speed must be held down to the legal rat The type of vehicle known as the delivery car, as pointed out in the April Bulle- tin, is still an offender. The System of Hand Signals. During the *“No-Accident Cam- paign” of the Fall of 1921, widespread publicity was given to a hand signal system and for a long time after that campaign the hand signal system was thoroughly and efficiently used. An attempt should be made during the month of May to impress upon all drivers the' desirability of giving thorough signals. The hand signal system is thoroughly known through- out the state and every driver is pre- sumed to know it. Tt is, therefore, only a question of insisting upon its use. This Department will promptly follow up any complaints received by it for failure to use this system where its use is indicated. The use of a me- chanical system should, at the present stage, be auxiliary to the hand signal system.

A May Dance Miss Catherine Mills had charge of the entertainment last evening. Miss Corinne Bacon gave some descriptive readings and a talk of modern poets, which was enjoved thoroughly. Miss Kathryn Minor, chairman of the finance committee, announced that plans are about completed for a May Dance May 26 at the Shuttle Meadow club. This dance will be the spring social event for the club. BIG MOOSE HERE Supreme Dictator Of The Order To Be The Guest Of The Local Lodge On Friday Evening. James,J.

T AUTOISTS MUST CUT DOWN SPEED AND GIVE SIGNALS FOR TURNING mechanical signal indicates the slow- ing down of the car are applied, but does not give a clear indication of ahat the driver has in mind to do next. The hand signal system, vhen properly used, does in- dicate the driver's Intention and, therefore, it should not be discon- tipued hecause a mechunical signal is in use on the car, During 4 April there have been a number of collisions in cities betwegn motor vehicles and trolleys. In almost every instance the collision occurred in practically the same manner. A motor vehicle which had been parked along side of the curb would swing out into the path of an oncoming trolley going in the same direction. An indication of in- tention to swing out would Thave warned the trolley operator and would have saved a collision. The hand signal is most generally disregarded when starting from a standstill or from a position where a car is parked. Passing Standing Cars. While there have not heen an un- ugual number of accidents of this type in Connecticut during April, there have been, enough to indleate that this is one of the most dangerous combinations of traffic which confront the pedestrian and motor vehicle driver. The law is a splendid one and the absence of accidents of this nature can bhe accomplished through its strict enforeement. The pedes- trians entering and leaving the car are responsible for reasonable care and the trolley companies of the state have recently shown a desire to co- operate by letting it be known that their cars will stop at the specified stations for persons standing at such stations without those persons coming out into the treet to meect the car before it stops. The active co-operation by enforce. ment is requested: 1. To reduce the speed of ap- proach at intersections. 2. To check up and warn in a good-natured manner on the hand signal system. 3. To supervise the passing of trolleys and insist upon proper and careful obedience to that law. This bulletin is submitted to those to whom it is sent, not in any spirit of supervision or direction, but as a memorandum which it is hoped may tend to uniformity of enforcement throughout the state, on the theory that if the whole body of ' police and citizens interested enforce and warn alike on certain subjects, that the op- erators of motor vehicles and pedes- trians alike will have those points impressed upon them, from time to time, in such a manner as will tend to make better driving and better crossing of highways. Robbins B. Stoeckel, Commissioner of Motor Vehicles. DECLARE ARMISTICE Rival Claimants For Stratford Are Awaiting & Decision By Judge Isaac Wolfe. Position In Bridgeport, May 3.—Pending a de- cision by Judge Isaac Wolfe of the superior court on the question of war- rant to proceedings in the Stratford town manager row, and the expected appeal to the supreme court of er- rors, an armistice has been declared by counsel for Rutherford H. Hunter and Walter W. Hubbell, rival claim- ants for the job. Judge Wolfe today in announcing that he would expedite his decision asked counsel for both sides: “What will happen in Stratford in the meantime? Can I get counsel to agree on armistice?” Attorneys for both sides agreed to the truce. The case came before Judge Wolfe on a motion to dissolve the temporary injunction recently granted whereby Hunter was restrained from acting as town manager. Judge Wolfe reserv- ing decision on the motion to dissolve the injunetion indicated that he would expedite a decision on the quo war- ranto proceedings to allow an early appeal to the supreme court.

Total PETTY POLITICIANS ACCUSED IN SPEECH Blamed for Blocking Harding’s Plan of Government New York, May 3.-—President Hard- ing's plan for “more business in gov- ernment; less government in busi- ness” is being blocked “by the petty Jealousies and conceits of men in high 'officlal position"” Mortimer F: Cooley, president of the American engineering council asserted here to- day. His statement followed a receht conference at the White House where Mr. Cooley tendered to the president his organization’s support in the movement (o establish a federal de- partment of public works. Mr. Cooley, who also is dean of the University of Michigan in his plea to members of the enfineering council said: “The president of the United States is endeavoring to formulate a program for reorganization of federal functions according to precepts that govern the efficient conduct of private business. He is following principles originally adopted in the movement of techni- cal men of the country to secure a federal department of public works. “The president's course was easy until he began to specify chanyrs that should take piacz in the govern- ment to conform to these cardinal rrinciples. He is mow eucountering oppoeition so stronz and well sup- rorted that it is feared his efforts 1 be defeated even as were the efforfs of former President Roosevelt and Taft along the same line. The president is theretore in need cf the friendly as- sistarce of those who have no pre- jeudices, no self sceking and who have no special purposes to serve. The last drop in the bottle of Baker's vanilla is as good as the first one. And every drop is full strength, and as pure and good as it is possBis to make it. Ask your grocer.—advt. NVALID IN CHAIR ROBBERS’ VICTIM Get $25 and Abandon Motor When Police Pursue—Four Suspects Caught. New York, May 3—William Khin, sixty-five, a retired manufacturer and helplegs invalid, was seated in a wheel chair ‘n his home, No. 217 Bergen street, Newark, N. J., yesterday, when two armed men ecntered, ordered his hands up, and took $25 from his pockets. They asked where there was more money. Ceonvinced that no more was to be found, the men bas- tened from the house and went away in an automobile with two others. Peter Genere, a garage keeper next door to Khin’s house, pursued them in an automobile. He was joined by two,_motorcycle policemen. For four miles over the streets of Newark the pursuit continued, and at Plane and Orange Streets the robbers abandoned their car and scattered. Several hours later, the police ar- rested four suspects, none of whom had been identified last night. Bishop Murray Blesses Addition to Hospital Waterbury, May 3—The Right Rev. Johr G. Murray, auxiliary bishop of the Hartford diocese, today blessed the new half million dollar wing of St. Mary’s hospital here. He was assisted by 25 priests.
