~ ACCIDENTS
Figures Show They Get
Into Trouble More
T h a n Beginners—
'Age 23 Bad
Experienced operators were in-
volved in over 87 per cent. of the
automobile accidents reported to the
state motor vehicle department for
the month of April. Operators who
have held Connecticut licenses less
than six months. and many of
these had never before been li-
censed to operate motor vehicles,
figured in 12.3 per cent. of the April
accidents.
The record for April proved to be
the worst that month of any year
since the motor vehicle department
was established. Although all of
the reports are not yet in. the re-
ports already received show at
least 1,200 acidents and thirty-one
fatalities in April, putting the total
of motor vehicle fatalities for the
first four months of 1924 at 77.
which is more than twice the numv
ber of fatalities recorded for the
corresponding period of 1923. In
Massachusetts. the total of 1924
fatalities is triple the number re-
ported for the first four months of
1923.
About 1,700 operators were in-
volved in Connecticut accidents
during April. Accidents involving
1,127 of these have already been
analyzed. showing that 988 of them
had had more than one year's ex-
perience as licensed operators. and
139 less than six months' experience.
This is taken to indicate that the
responsibility cannot be laid to faulty
examinations of applicants for
driver’s licenses. More than 5.000
operators have been passed by the
State Police examiners thus far this
year, and 40,019 were passed in all
of last year. The majority of those
examined had never held operator's
licenses previously. but there were
many, of course. who had operated
automobiles in other states and
some who were required to be re-
examined because more than a year
had elapsed since they previously
held a Connecticut license.
Operators 23 years old are shown
by the department records to have
figured in a larger percentage of
last year's accidents than those of
ally other age. and 25-year-old oper-
ators came second. As a class. the
operators between 20 and 30 years
old held the record. being involved
in 31-8 per cent. of the accidents
for the year. Of all the operators
registered last year. 29.3 per cent.
were between 20 and 30 years old.

Some interesting methods are em-
ployed by the Standard Oil Com-
pany of New- York to maintain the
efficiency of their mammoth world-
wide‘ sales organization. There is
hardly s. civilized country in the
world that is not. penetrated by
these emissarles of American busi-
ness. On account of the‘ distant
points which they must reach they
are necessarily out of touch with the
home office for long periods. But
the Standard does not believe in
“marooning” its representatives in-
definitely among the Zulu or the
"heathen Chlnee." On the contrary
they are recalled to the United
States on an average of every three
years for vacation and study.
Five Standard men from the far
East recently arrived at Detroit and
are spending three months at the
Michigan State Automobile School
in a thorough study of auto-
mechanics and special investiga-
tions in carburatlon and lubrication.
For several years this so ol has
been used by the Standard ll Com-
pany for similar training for num-
bers of its salesmen. The present
contingent consists of H. J. Hawkins.

Increases Export
Trade Over 400 Per
Cent. During First
Four Months of Year
"' Foreign markets will take all ex-
cess production of automobiles
manufactured in this country, if the
record made so far this year by the
Olds Motor Works. Lansing Michi-
gan. is a criterion. During the first
four months of 1924 more Oldsmo-
biles were shipped to foreign mar-
kets than during any entire year in
the past. and the number was ap-
proximately 400 per cent greater
than during the same period in 1923.
“When the Olds Motor “'orks and
other large automobile manufactur-
ers announced at the beginning of
the year that they intended increas-
ing their production, the usual cal-
amity bowlers began reviving the
‘saturati n point' specter," said Guy
H. Peas y. Oldsmobile Sales Man-
ager. “At every opportunity since
then they have renewed their dire
predictions. They. as usual, failed
lo take into consideration that. this
country is proceeding on a basis of
sound prosperity and that the en-
tire. world is slowly. but sancly. bet-
tering its economic condition."
In line with the big increase in
Oldsmobile sales. both in this coun-
try and abroad. total figures for the
industry indicate that this country
will export from two to three times
as many cars this year as it did in
1923. During the first four months
of this year the. general increase in
Oldsmobile business was nearly 300
per cent. while during the same
period the increase in Oldsmobile
exports was nearly 400 per cent.
During January. 1923 there were
69 Oldsmobiles exported as com-
pared to 337 in January this year.
an increase of 461 per cent., In
February. 1923 a total of 13‘ cars
were shipped abroad; and for the
same month this your 678 cars were
exported, an increase of 407 per
cent.
March 1923 exports totaled 115
cars. while in March this year the
number was (SI or a. gain of 318
per cent. The figures for April this
year were 476 as compared to 102
for April 1923. a gain of 368 per
per cent. The total export figure for
the first four months of 1923 was
420 cars as compared to 2.023 cars
during the first four months of this
year. or a gain of 381. per cent.
Reports from the General Motors
Export Company. which handles all
foreign trade for General Motors

that the greatest business so far this
year has been with Australia. South
America is also shown as a good
market, with Argentina the best

has been Sweden, with Spain and oc-

American labor is the first move-

emancipate itself fully and absolute-

world's first economic democracy,
and it is to the American labor
movement. and to it alone. that peo-

the new world of labor. In so far as
the German movement—or any oth-
