ATAL, street accidents in New York City for the first three F months of this year are reported by the Mayor's Central Com mittee on Street Traffic and Safety, as follows: Killed by various kinds of motor vehicles, street cars, wig one, motorcycles and fire engines, 62. Killed by pleasure v« hdeles, 31; by metor trucks, 11; by horsedrawn vehicles, 6; by trolley cars, 9; by motorcycle, taxicab, motor bus, fire appa- ratue and ratiread train, 1 each. Forty-nine persons were killed at street intersections; twelve while crossing the street In the middle of a block. In ite recommendations to the T'raffic Oommittee the Safety Firat Society agrees with The Evening World that the worst perils for pedestrians in this city are due to i (1) Lack of safety areas or ipies at atreet intersections. (2) Absence of poltosmen at busy corners. (8) The dangerous habit of cutting across the street diag- onally or between crossings. The Safety Society urges a law to prohibit persons on foot from trarsrming street crossings diagonally. This dangerous and growing habit of New Yorkers must be checked. But before passing ordinances, provide proper means by which people on foot may cross crowded streets without bewilderment d terror. Build isles of safety. Put policemen on all busy croas- welke.

Magistrate Cornell recently warned New York that it is rapidly letting itself become the recognized winter haven for professional hoboes from all over the country. City Chamberlain Bruere has now im his turn made a discovery: A vagrant is a man who hasn't work and who doesn’t want work. Any such should be forced to choose between earning their keep on a farm colony or leaving town. Indis- eriminate charity to all unemployed only encourages the undeserving to crowd into the city and spoil the chances of those who honestly seek work, “The sheep must be separated from the goats” and the latter driven out. Tt has taken the city authorities a long time to find out what every village knows—that penniless arrivals who are determined to vat but refuse to work are undesirables of the first water.
