Twentyâ€"five lots of one hundred gle graves have been set aside for the British Old People‘s home to be . at their discretion. In addition a monâ€" ument off large proportions covéring an area of 1,800 square feet is to be trected mear the center of the section. to Britisgh: Americans at Riverside, and the‘laying of the cornerstone of the Cornish Arms hotel in New York, comes the announcement of the setâ€" ting aside of an entire section of Memorial Park cemetery, located at West Ridge rogd/and Harrison street, exclusively for British people. â€" The section was officially opened Memorâ€" ial day. e ts This is â€"the first time that a cemeâ€" tery has turned over an entire section for the exclpsive use of British Amerâ€" icans. $ mt oon & . ‘On the heels of the completion and dedication of the Old People‘s: home â€" Mr. Hayes urged the Better Governâ€" ment association to get behind the bill for licensing drivers, pointing out that this bill had a fighting chance to pass, whereas the Wolff Bill was dead and had no chance because of the examiâ€" nation feature. "We must do someâ€" thing to stop these fatal accidentsâ€" Senate Bill 480 is our only {thance.

He later isâ€" sued the statement that if Coroner Wolft© was agreeable he would :w the largest convention hall in the y the Coliseum if necessary, where: a debate would be staged. ‘ â€" ._.â€"» _ "The provision in Senate Bill 480 calling for a revocatiog of the drivâ€" er‘s license, is the big.punch in the bill," sailiitlr. H* es. <"If a man has two viclations chn&ed up against him, he is going to be a | careful driver from then @h, because he knows that one* slip will mean that his right to drive a car and perhaps his. means of livelihood is to be taken away fromL him. This, at any rate, is the exâ€" perience reported by the secretary of the New York State Automobile assoâ€" ciation, who says that the.revocation feature is the big accident4deterring factor." * io t Ayii y e Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Mctor <lub, said that back in 1914 he had Mvocated an examinaâ€" tion of drivers, ‘and had clung to the theory that such a bill would reduce accidents, for a number of years, but that he had learned by experience that such a bill did not reduce accidents, and had in consequence‘ changed his views. N Py Mr. Gorham contended that the WolffyBill wouldn‘t receive ten votes in the senate, and that it had absoâ€" lutely no chance to pass. , ; No Chance to Pass "I question Mr. Welff‘s sincerity," said Mr. Gorham, "as he knows after his ‘visit: to Springfhield th&t a‘ bill containingâ€" an examination feature has no chance to pass." Bill. "The important thirig it Senate Bill 480 is that a court of record‘ or the Becretary ‘of. State may take a man‘s license away from him for a certain length of time, for serious offences set forth in. the bill; or if he is conâ€" viected ‘of three motor, vehicle violaâ€" tions during the year, and the penalâ€" ties for driving after such a revocaâ€" tion has taken place are more severe in the hill which we are supporting, than in the bill known as the Wolff : Bays, "Show: Me" Sidney 8. Gorham, Chicago attorâ€" ney, in charge of the legiflative deâ€" partment of the Chicago Motor club, said in answer to the coroner‘s chargâ€" es: "If anyone can show me how an examination will climinate the drunkâ€" en or the: careless driver, I shall favor an examination. Th careless driver is careful when taking an examinaâ€" tion, and the drunken driyer is sober. . The merits of Spnate Bill 480, the rivers .litense bill, were discussed at $ meeting of the Better Government association recently. This bill, which has the backing of the Chicago Motor ¢lub and the clubs in Illinois affiliated with the American Automobile assoâ€" ciation, : was assailed by Coroner Wolff, who contended that an examiâ€" nation ‘of drivers was necessary, and that in as much as Senate Bill 480 had noâ€"such provisicon it was of no value â€"from> an: accident prevention viewpoint. { x f Believed that Result Will | to Lessen Number of Auto ...

Gage calls attention to the fact that July A4th is otherwise notable in American history, as follows: ~‘â€"Independence Day, July 4, the most significant of all our naâ€" tional holidays is at hand, and probably few Americans think of that anniversary otherwise than in connection with the signing of the declaration which cut loose the United States from political connectiqn with Europe. Few perhaps remember the other July fourths that have been notable in American history. } THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 1925 The Higbland Park Press *ablished weekly by The Udel!
