SLOGAN "Is your car a pleasure vehicle o a deadly weapon ?" asks the Women's Safety bureau. of the Chicago Motor, club, as it. takes its place be- side the parent organizationi in the. movement te reduce automobile accidents and fatalities. It is a slogan that every ýdriver of a car, man Pr woman, should, read and -heed. By keeping it constantly in mmifd while behind the wheel it may be the means of preventins, an accident that imight claini atoll of ode or more ives. "Mopers" are credited by Herbert H. Burns, chief of the county highway police, with responsi- bility for many accidents that niglt easily be avoided. "Mopers," said the chief, "are the pests of holiday dri'v ing. They 'mope' along i the center', lanes, forcing those who would drive at a reason- able pace to pass them to the left of the center or te the right. Either maneuver is dangereus." The answer te the question~ propounded by the women is that your car is a pleasure vehicle. Much better te keep it that than te make of it a deadly weapon, because a life once taken cannot be restored. FOR BE-TTE-R HOMES The Federal Home Loan Bank of 'Chicago bas announced a lending program ameunting te at Ieast $60,000,000 by the Illinois and Wisconsin bu ilding and boan associations affiliated witb the, bank. A: series of meetings of representatives of the varieus miember associations have been held, the purpose being .te give the bank an opportunity, te act as counseller te the associations in getting> available funds eut and working for the home owners. Other meetings in strategic points threughout the territorv aerved h'v the b ank ha~ve bhen held money, and plenty of, it, té bc spent for public works of one kind and another, and the question 6arises, "Why flot finance this much needed im- provement f rom the. fund of $4,880,000,000 which has been appropriated for just such projects?" And'früm Village Managers Hl. L. Woolhiser of Winnetka,. and George R. Young of Glencoe, came. the- ethe, "Why not?" Acting. promptly, they, submitted a request that track elevatienfifromi Bvanston 'north te a point near Willow road, Win- netka, and track depression from that point to Highlaùd Park, bc included in the list> of a pproved Projects., This, however, is only a beginning, and the New. Trier villages must not get the ideaý that 'success bas' already been attained. There is >much to bc done, aridthe -work mustfpot beý allowed to fail upon one, or, two muiÎcipalities. There should. be inaugurated at once a1n, aggressive; campaigu in, which unified effort, will bce-the outstanding. feature, and, which will1 engage the active sup- port, nôt only 'of the Village boards, but of everv civic organization in the villages affected. To such a mevement the annoyance and discomfort of blocked crossings which citizens have endured year after year should be an effective spur. Wil- mette has an especial reason for le 'nding every aid possible, for the electric line bassignified its, purpose of removing its tracks frorn Greenleaf: avenue when grade separation has become a fact. Whether or net one believes in the public works program of the federal administration, the money bas been appropriated and will be spent. Alloca- tions are now being miade, and the long clierished dreani of north shore residents for grade separa- tion now seems te be possible, of realization. But it will never corne about unless a determined and sustained .effort is istituted at once by ail the forces witbin and among the various villages, with cooperation as the watchword and the will to win predominant in every move. PrbalyGooD REASONS Poal no.resident of the north shore requires ally logic te convince hini of the value of all-year- 'round playground activities. But should any be needed, it may be found in these persuasive tien of the slaves.r Ait houghi to our knowledge we had' no personal friends in the Formosa earthquake, our sym- pathies go out te the sufferers. A great tragedy makes the wbole world kmn. Érstwhile office se.ekers have learned that signa- tures on, petitions are flot necessarily votes.in the ballotbox. The chief o.f the, county highway police, who0 .,-started eut Sunday to "warn" road hogs onthe- proper use. of four-lane drives, will find that wbile one may ."warn" a road' hog it is impossible to teach hini anything.

Last week's prîze goes to Speaker.Byrne. Governor Tal- miadge of Georgia, said that the President is "an extremne radical," and continued: "Any man-who condones the NRA, the> AAA and other things now going on i this country is a radical." To whichi Speak- er J3yrne replied: "Few people .~ will approve of what Governôr Talmadge had te say of the President, who enjoys the con- fid ence of the country and under whose leadership the country is fast climbing bacic to prosperity.7 What is pot easily understood is how the Georgia, governor got the idea that the Presideiit is a rad- ical. Harry Hopkins, the Great Reliever, says that Illinois gives him "a pain in the neck." Which is the flrst intimation coming te, Illinoisans that he has a neck. The. general impression bas been thiat Mr. Hopkins beg'nsat bis feet and enids at his shoulders. Illinoisans, just now in the po'sition of being sandbagged, are delighted to be corrected.
