BOND AUTO OWNER TO PAY DAMAGES }*SUGRESTED PLAN Law Favored Holding Employ- ers Liable for Injuries In- flicted by Drivers. — td 6treets in this city has had wide- spread effect, as is indicated in many Yrederick B. House of the Court. Suggestions for legislation and regulation are numerous in these communications, but Magistrate Mouse is particularly impressed by a plan outlined by Walter B. Renton, an official of a liability insurance f company, which is designed to make i every automobile owner responsible in f @ financial way not only for injuries inflicted through his own fault upon pedestrians, but for accidents in which hissemployees figure. Mr. Renton would have @ passed compelling every automobile owner to furnish a substantial bond to the State which would cover pos- sible judgments for damages, Such a measure, he says, would requi establishment of a State Insurance which would undertake hich ,wt this law re tho Department, to underwrite hazards w f time, the private insurance companies will not accept Certain classes of automobile trans- portation enterprises are unable to procure liability insurance because of the low degree of intelligence of the chauffeurs they employ cab concerns are unable to obtain bility insurance, Persons injured by the cars of these concerns—a majority of whom are working people who lose uot only their time while recovering r Injuries but their Jobe—are} insurance t carrying | Sability risks of concerns of this char-| acter would have the power to sub ject all persons owning or operating cars to a rigid examination as to com- petency, character and habits. In Mr. Renton's judgment it would not be 60 or 70 per cent. of the long before class of owners and drivers now fig: ing in automobile accidents due to careless or reckless driving or incom- petence would pe eliminated from traffic on the streets. The idea is to make liability in- @urance something more than it is to-day—a shifting of responsibility from the owner or chauffeur to the (nsurance company. A compulsory bond, forfeitable for violation of any traffic law, would place responsibil- ity on the operator of the car. Mr. Renton suggests that a law be passed subjecting any person oper- ating a car while intoxicated to a ysentence of at least two years in + prison, whether such person figures ip an accident or not WEEKS DEMANDS LIGHT ON GEN, EDWARDS'S RECALL Baker Also Asked to.
