“'hile. we have a law that makes,
the drivers of public service vchl-i
clcs offer some protection to their
passengers and the unlucky pedes-
ftrians, who may be e. bit slow in
{speeding across the street. there is
. as yet no law in Connecticut which
,willéprotect pedestrians and auto
:driv s .from the reckless respon-
.sibility of those who own cars and
lhave no insurance. There are thou-
.sands of men driving automobiles
{about the highways eyery day who
have bought their machines on
time payments and who may run
down and seriously injure, or per-
haps kill a pedestrian and neither
the assaulted one nor his heirs can
collect a cent for the damage done.
There are sane persons driving ex-
pensive machines. who are the mercy
of these reckless chaps. who are
uninsured and any day these valu-
able cars may he reduced to junk.
“'e ought to have a general bond-
ing law for the driver of every au-
tomobile that is operated on-- the
roads of the state. One way that
this could be done would be to have
the state issue insurance with the
license and then underwrite it.\ if
advisable through regularly estab-
lished .insurance companies. Then
every driver who applied for a ll-
ccnse would have to have insurance
provisions at the same time.
The automobile is still a danger-
ous weapon in the hands of many of
us and as our laws are not suffi-
ciently broad in their enort to pro-
tect the innocent. there' must be
something done to adjust this in-
equality. Every new driver is
more or less a menace on the road
and some of them get. worse through
over confidence. disregard of others'
rights and a. general tendency to
tear at rapid speed through congest-
ed portions of the‘clty. '
Not citizens. But Subjects
(Baltimore Sun)”
Senator W'adsworth of. New York:
in his speech here last night before
the retail merchants bureau of the
Baltimore Association pf Commerce
did a. splendid job for his country in
denouncing the growth of bureau-
cracy and. the trend toward centrnh
ization of authority in Washington.
To those who still cling to the old-
fashioned American idea of govern-
ment nothing‘ is truer than this
statement: .
“If we go on taking authority
from the States and clothing the
Federal government with police
power, we will become a. great im-
perial government: and we on».
selves will be not citizens. but sub‘-
jects."
' And singing out specifically the
present start to centralize rand
standardize education the Senator
declared it was this very standard-
izing of education which strangled
Germany. It is curious. when one
stops to think. to what. extent the
centralizers and standardize" er.

very things we‘most denounced dur-
ing the late war. about Germany

TlMELY VIEWS on WORLD TOPICS
“wonm Mtl’sr KNOW CHINA'S
PAS]! T0 WEIGH ITS FUTURE
All intimate knowledge of China’s
past is. necessary for an intelligent
understanding of China's future—a
future that may hold problems not
unrelated to those of Western civil-
ization in the opinion of Professor
Paul Pclliot of the College of France
in Paris. who has been given a. ser-
ies of lectures at American univer-
slties.
Professor Pelliot is an authority
on Chinese archaeoligy;heving spent
the past twenty‘five years in study
and researdi. It was he who. a. num-
ber of yehrs ago. unearthed in a. re—
mote part of northern China several
thousand Chinese scrolls dating from
the fifth century. conceded to be one
of the most important finds of the
century. He expresses surprise at
American indifference to Oriental
matters and suggests a. possible
short-sightedness on our part in not
taking steps to insure a more intim-
ate knowipdge of s. ‘na‘tlon whose
population comprises one-third of all
mankind and whose future is bound
to bring it into close contact ~with the
rest of the world.
It is only? an intimate knowledge
of a. nation's past. says Professor
Pelliot. that enables one to deal
saticfactorily with that nation in
the present-especially s. country
with so important I. civilization I as
China's. ,

not bo ignored in its physical and
literary aspects. A study of ‘lhl's
civilization gives us a check on the
Mediterranean and other civiliza-
tions. a so-called means of control.
And as China. with its vast popu-
lation audits valuable resources. is
bound to play a greater and greater
part in the future of the world. a
knowledge of its civilization would.
seem to me to be of particular value
to the ‘United States. Europe has

The Bonus and the Press.
If_we are-to accept as true the
familiar el get: that “there is no
success like success." it must be ad.
mitted that the influence of the
press of the country in the matter of
the soldiers' bonus amounted to less
than nothing, says the ‘Now .Hsven
Journal Conner. Rarely has the
press of the. country been so nearly
unanimous in opposition .to. a. pro-
posod_measure. From evéry section
of the country has come no exprese
sion of opinion which has justified
the belief that the people. generally
speaking. are opposed to legislation
of this character and in favor of
tax reduction. _ \
To -dlscover the influenpe of thel
press we must look to the minority
vote. a not very thrilling manifests»
tion of sympathy. pre at or absent.
But we are put swear that it is the
business of the pr to seek vic-

fairs; Broadly speaking. the parti-
san press is largely eliminated and in
its place has come a press dealt-out
of serving the public from the stand-
pointpf what appears to it to be the
good of the greatest number. In the
discussion of public measures the
aim is to treat themwithout‘ preju-
dice of fear. leaving their» outcome

no more than an organized "cut"
made by students who had gnot had
a holiday since Christmas and who
discovered that “St. strick Was an

engineer‘s is "St. Patrick \Vas An

runs:
