& § CThe Hake Connty Regtater 44 b¢ important clause is that no driver who has been held responsible for the injury or destruction of life or property may operate a car or bear a driver's litense as long as there is an unpaid judgment against him. * Whether the enactment of a license bill will cut down acc: dents only experience will tell. Something must be done, how-- ever, and that measure might be a solution of the problem. It is worth trying. -- The Chicago Motor club, which is one 'of the leading advo-- cates of the measure, is fostering a policy that can be put into effect with very little trouble. The license is to be issued without a--preliminary examination and at a nominal cost, probably not more than 25 cents.. In the bill governing the license feature will be provision for financial responsibility on the part of the licensee. PLENTY OF USE FOR DIRT In an effort to remedy the crowded traffhic conditions between Chicago and Milwaukee, automobile clubs of this section are proposing the building of a super--highway that will run parallel with the Lake Michigan shoreline and will be a couple of blocks out in the water. In order to construct this road millions and millions of cubic yards of fill will be needed. It is the plan of the promoters of the project to have the various towns and cities along the lake shore dump their excess dirt into the lake and in that way build land that can be used for the roadway. LICENSING AUTO DRIVERS With automobile accidents, continuing to increase,-- some method will have to be found'q ing the reckless driver and limiting the driving of ' »#6:who know how to han-- dle them and are not impaired ." One way, according to directors of automobile clubs, is to bring about the passage of a drivers' license law at the next session of the state legislature. Elimination of the preliminary examination will not hurt the measure, for that feature appears to be a useless factor that does not indicate what the driver will do after he gets his license. An Several strong objections to the plan make it doubtful if the dreams of the highway engineers can be fulfilled. One of the strongest, as far as Waukegan is concerned, is the fact that the lake water is used for drinking purposes. If all sorts of rubbish and garbage were dumped into the lake, not even the new filtra-- tion plant could be expected to cope with the evil. Another is that piers would have to built out into the lake in order to make it possible to carry the dirt out there. + As far as using excess fill is concerned, Waukegan has many places for it right within the city limits Under the direc» tion of the street department, all the available dirt from excava-- tions is dumped into ravines where culverts are to be built in future years. It is apparent that traffic problems in the city limits are serious enough to demand immediate solution without going into the lake for more of them. When the culverts are built and the dead--end streets in the city connected, then we may look to other places as dumping grounds for dirt. ooo i oi t t Te s 1srd. tesued fwice werkly FRANK H.
