Now, with the law on the books, jt is estimated that more than 60 per cent are financially responsible. This is regarded as quite a victory for the law by the state motor vehicle department. Still, the gain is only In the neighborhood of a little more than eight per cent—sey ten per eent. What kind of & law is it if only | halt the drivers are financlally responsible? The object of the law should be that all'are responsible. | OLD-FASHIONED LAW “If a man pulls a trigger of a revolver with intent to kill him- self and accidentally kills some one else, he is gulity of murder.” But man ean make all the foolish | laws he pleases; that does not mean Juries will convict under them. This is what happend in the famous Smith-Derham murder trial in England, a case that in England attracted as much attention as the Hall-Mills ease in the United States. The judge told the jury that, un- der the anclent law he cited, the de- fendant was gullty even if he tried to commit suicide and accidentally killed another while so acting. | But a jury is not bound by tech- | nicalities to such an extent. The | jury system has its faults, but these | are not as glaring as slavish wor- ship of what some aberrant legis-| lature or pariiament in a moment of | fitful logic eaused to be written on the statute books. | THE ZERO HOUR The city of New Haven has be- come somewhat exercised over the fact that only two policemen are on duty along Chapel street after 3:30 a m. After that hour and before day- light three robberies were commit- ted in the business district. Crooks know when cities are patrolled to the minimum. That time is between the hours when the regular night force returns to the station house and the day force is not yet on duty. That was the hour chosen by | Gerald Chapman to commit his fatal | robbery in New Britain. It was the | time chosen some years prevmunly; by the crooks who perpetrated the | other important early morning rob- bery in the city. Our latest robbery, perpetrated | this morning, took place a little | later in the day. The situation is alike in all cities. | The police departments are at their | most ineffective strength at such a| time, exactly the hours when crooks fare forth on their major jobs. QUICK ACTION IN MAINE Maine played a “nawsty upon ye editorial clan. Scarcely had the commentating fraternity had an | opportunity to weigh, analyze and dissect the scandal charges In the Pine Tree state when a sort of “in- vestigatlon” was gotten under way and Arthur R. Gouid, nominee for the Senate, trick"” Republican washed clean of the charges. What will happen as a result will | be determined today. Fulton J. Red- man, the Democratic candi L will probably gain something from the refusal of Governor Ralph O. Brewster to aid_Gould. The Republicans need Gould in the Senate very badly. Although the national administration saw fit to il off its orators after the charges | had the slogan “helping Coolldge” can still be ap- plicd in the stat Maine bas become been made, of one of the Ku Klux Klan, have bacome badly | scrambied. After today the state can raturn to raising potatocs and milk- ing tourists for two yeprs. | ‘ < | So lax has the political-minded In- | dlana Public | or brought to them. | they |isfaction that the White Star | was owned by JUST A MERGER It is the duty of newspapers own- ing a tendency to be a watchdog of public rights to point out the methods of electrical mergering. Well, here's another. In Indianapolls the omnipresent Insulls have been active—the same Insulls who are more than mildly | interested in New England power | concerns. It is proposed—by the Insullated | electric group—to merge the two| electrical concerns serving the city. Service Commission been that no valuation of the com- panies has been made. TIn all| probability this has been neglect | with a purpose. The two concerns are assessed for $18,000,000. The Insulls would con- solidate them into a new company with a capitalization of $55,000,000. That's a proposed merger as is one. PRIVATE DRIVEWAYS The fatal maiming of another | child in New Britain by a truck which was delivering goods from a private driveway alongside a house cannot do otherwise than call at- tention to the inherent danger that lurks along these driveways which in some sections of the city jut from the streets every few steps. It was not long ago that a similar fatal accident occurred, and pretty much under similar circumstances —the child belng near the truck and the driver either not seeing the ohild or thinking it was out of harm's wa. The driveways that lead from | streets alongside lawns or houses | ever, has brought to light the fact that there are 19 fire-trap school structures in that gity and that the lives of thousands of pupils are men- aced thereby. Exits, stair towers and thelr construction generally are found to be out-of-date and danger- ous. Only one school in the city has a sprinkler system. Springfield is not in a class by it- self in this respect, will be the thought that geeurs to commenta- tors. Since most of the old school buildings were constructed there have been such advances made in fire-proofing buildings that virtually every old bullding used for such a purpose can be regarded as being entirely out of date, The best safeguard under the cir- cumstances is to keep puplls thor- oughly versed in fire drills, teach them caution, and keep the heating system in perfect condition at ail costs. WASHINGTON POLITICS The kind of politics played in Washington nowadays is sometimes of a bewildering character; all one | can get out of the melee is that “it's | politics,” with some subterrancan | end in view. Thus one comes to the decision of President Coolidge to recognize Senator Curtls of Kansas as the Re- publican leader of the Senate, This effectively disposes of the | rumor that Senator Fess of Ohio would be the unoffictal spokesman of | the President in the Senate. | The unoflicial spokesman will be | Curtis, and thereby hangs a possi- | | bility of meeting the farm bloc more than half way. To get the background straight it are a species of death traps which | deserve the special attention of | motorists, They usually lead to gar- | ages, and are in use in such cases| whenever the cars are taken from | | Children who have been trained | | not to play in the streets nor to| cross any without the assistance of | adults, are less inclined to realize | the danger that lurks along these private driveways. | Motorists who use them may, if | | they are not keen-witted and alert, | abandon | public is do the along the with exercise s0 same the streets, whereas reverse necessary. All of us, perhaps, have seen | motorists drive to or trom drivewa with such speed that if a child hap- pened to be playing near them and | unthinkingly dodged upon the paths that nothing, not even good brakes, could prevent an accident. Children 1in their innocence lack of experience do not think like | adults, They do not realize such dangers instinctively; they have not | been in the world long enough to grasp them. In using private driveways, there- | fore, it behooves motorists to e cise extreme caution—not once in a| while, but all the time. and or- WHITE STAR SALE Although it was a morsel of sat- line the Merchant Marine, corporation, the fact that the line flew the British flag let this Ameri- can ownership be no gain to Ameri- can shipping. Sale of the line to the Royal Mall Steam Packet company, a lcading Dritish firm, therefore nothing from American shipping. It merely means Americans no longer own the line which flew the British flag. The proper method been for the White Star line, when it was owned by the I M. M, to fiy | the Amerfcan flag. But business would not have been as great and profits less. That is the trouble with Ameri International an American subtracts would have shipping as compared with for competition. It fs said that P. A. S. Franklin, president of the I M. M., will some day operate an all-American line. It 18- to be hoped this is tr Franklin the is acknowledged American leader of ocean transpor- tation and of rights ought to bc operating fleets under the American flag.
