Motor Drivers Becoming
More Negligent
Baltimore, .June 22.?Are drivers
or motor vehicles becoming more neg-|
ligent, less regardful of their own
safety ?
It would seem so from actual obseivations
made by the Baltimore and
(>hh? Railroad. For more than two
years this railroad has been placing
men at crossings where there are
usually a large number of automobiles
passing. These observers make
note of the number of machines crossing
and tnke down the license numLers
of those whose drivers fail to
tnke any precaution to assure them
selves that it is safe to pass over the
tracks. This safety precaution consists
of the driver's slowing down or
stopping, and then looking and listening.
When a driver dashes over
without taking any of these precautions,
his license number is noted
and a card telling him of his negligence
is sent him, with rA|uest to
guard his life and property the next
time he goes over a railroad track.
In the year 1920 the Baltimore &

vehicles in the states through which
it operates. In that year, according
to the records of these observers,
there were 25,690 drivers who failed
to t-.ke any precautions at highway
crossings. This was 6 per cent of
the total observations made.
In April of this year there were
^ 16,477 automobiles checked by Ihe

railroad's observers. There were
2,1)72 of the drivers of these reported
as failing to stop, look, or listen hefore
passing over the tracks. This
was a safety 'failure'' of IS percent.
l or the first four months of this
year there were 58,8Ij6 machines observed
and the "failurtes" reached 17
percent.
The increase in the number of
drivers failing to take safety pre
viiuuuiiH siTins cieany to indicate, in
the opinion of the mail's safety department,
that the automobile driver
is becoming more negligent.

Jit* was born in Youngstown, Ohio,
45 years ago and has held various
high official positions with hte .Brotherhood.
He moved here a few years
ago. His career shows the remarkable
rise of a typical American from
a brick boy to president of one of the
largest international railroad brotherhoods
in the world.
At the age of 11 years Robertson
started work in a brick yard here.
He began railroading in 1899 as a
wiper in the Pennsylvania Railroad
shops, later going to the Erie shops
as an ashman, advanced to oiler, and
then entering train service as a tire
man. Shortly after he was elected
chairman of the Youngstown local of
the firemen's organization. Later he
was promoted from fireman to engineer.
In 1905 he was elected general
chairman of the firemen's brotherhood
for the Erie Railroad system
and was elected a vice president of
the firemen in 1913.
Deprived of the chance to go to
school e.l the age of 11 years, after
three years in grade schools, young
Robertson made up the deficiency
by six years of studying in night
schools after working hours.
Accomplished All
They Intended
Batala, India, June 22.?M. K.
Gandhi has been congratulated on
his conviction by the Puniab Provin
cial Conference, which at the same
time expressed in a second resolution
gratification at the stand made by
the people of the province during the
past few months against the restrictions
imposed upon them by the government.
The conference declared its
firm adherence to the principle of
non-violent non-coi-operation recommended
by three successive sessions
of the Indian National Congress as
the only means of attaining political
freedom in the immediate future, and
called upon the people not to depart
from the strict observance of nonviolence.
letter resolutions called for the establishment
of a Regularly constituted
university to carry out the con-1
structive program of national oducalion
which has hccn adopted, and to
direct and control the various national
educational activities in the
province. The proposold university
would open scientific, technical and
industrial departments and would bo
incorporated with the national college
already existing at Lahore.
The conference expressed its complete
agreement with the Central
Khalifat committee and held that the
proposals of the Paris conference
were unjust and disastrous for the
Turks.
The conference wrts presided over
by Mr. K. Santanam. In the course
of his presidential address, Mr. San

"A careful study of the present
situation will convince even the most
hostile critic that we have achieved
almost or nearly all that we had in
view. Hindu-Mohajnmedan dissentions
have been the root cause of our
weakness but are nearly non-existent
today. We have made rapid strides
in sinking our differences and creating
that atmosphere of mutual trust

"I do not mean to sav that we have
done all we wanted to do, but I most
certainly maintain that we have advanced
st> far in this matter that our
future is full of promise and there
is no room for despondency. It is
true, no doubt, that we have not
wrested power from the hand of the
bureaucracy, but that is only a question
of time. If we would only persevere
in the same path and with
the same zeal, the day would not be
far distant when we would have secured

Straightening Out
Matrimonial Tangles
1 London, June L'l.?Another step
has been taken in the direction of
securing for wives equality of treatment
with husbands so far as the
law is concerned. The House of Com?

the 'Separation and Maintenance Order
Bill," to give it its cumberson official
title. It is designed to straighten
out some matrimonial tangles and
remove various matrimonial infelicities
which are largely attributed to
the fact that in many ways the law
does not treat the sexes alike.
As the law now stands, according
to the sponsor for the bill, Sir Robert
Newman, a wife who wishes to
prove cruelty against her husband
has to leave home first, and she is
torn between fear of him and fear of
abandoning her children in his
charge.
Under the provisions of the bill a
wife, while still living with her husband
would be able to take him to
the police court for a maintenance
order, produce a letter from his employer,
stating his earnings, obtain
a ruling from the magistrate laying
down the proportion of the wages
to which she is entitled, and then
take the husband home again.

Average Yield of
Corn Per Acre
Washington. June 21k?More than
11,000 negro farmers in North c'arolina,
Texas ami Virginia who raised

the advice of county atfonts, em|)lo.\ed
cooperatively by the Department
of Agriculture and state agricultural
colleges, obtained average
yields of .*15 bushels an acre. The average
for all farms in these states
tanged from IT to 25 bushels an acre,
the department said today.
In Virginia, nearly 5,000 of the
negro demonstrators planted pure
seed and about 2 000 selected seed
for their 1022 crop. All these dent
onstration plats of corn were harvested
except 87 acres which were
"hogged down." It is estimated that
70 percent of the negro farmers in
Virginia are following methods of
growing corn taught by extension
workers.
