The conviction of Eugene Daniels,
the automobile driver, who carried
the soldier John Wise to his death in
the mad dash for Timmonsvllie on
the concrete road on a dark 'morning,
will serve as a warn ng to other driv
ers of automobiles who regard the
saving of time as more important than
the safety of tbe lives of their las-
sengers. It is not often that a con
viction on charges of this kind is se
cured. With the automobile in uni
versal and constant use for business
as well as pleasure, more verdicts
like this would make this a much
safer country to live in.
