Safety Zone Needed
in First District
. It is becoming increasingly evident
that the police should mark oi! and
establish a Bitty zone for trolley
passengers directly in front of the
Norwalk M. E. 'church. 4
Seven! accidents to pedestrians
have narrowly been averted at this
Juncture and. unless a safety zone is
provided. we fear one at the near sc-
cidents may be converted into a tra-
jedy involving broken limbs a
smashed body or death. -
The Methodist Church {aces West
‘ avenue at the east end of “’3“
)trcet. It is on a. line with a trolley
stop. People rushing (or a car are
momentarily heedless of the danger
from passing autoists. who traverse
this point in any one of two direc-
tions.
Let's imagine you are in the vicin-
ity of the church and in a hurry to
board a trolley bound for the Sec-
ond District. You run across the
roadway. see an approaching auto
and if fortunate dsrt this way or
that to safety.
Look at it from the driver’s angle.
He is following a trolley which is
rounding the curve from Wall street
into West avenue. The motorman
slows down. stops.~ It is impossible
for the driver to see whether there
are passengers about to board or
leave the trolley. because his line of
leion is blocked.
If he is careful. the lives of pe-
1'
destrims are'sateguarded: it not,
they are endangered. Unfortunately
not all drivers are careful. Hence
the necessity for a safety zone at
this point.
A line drawn on the roadway with
white paint and several iron poles
standing upright on bases, with a
lantern at night. would he the only
expense. Surely an inexpensive in-
vestment to protect life and limb!
.Where Politicians Fear
to Tread, Voters Walk
Political conventions and political
puppets may have feared to be out~
spoken and unafraid in denouncing
the Klan imprwcampaign utterances
and platforms. but the plain people
of America. even in supposedly K. K.
K. ridden states. are much less
timid. In primaries now being con-
ducted in various states the voters.
whose intelligence and discern
:ncnt are unusually belittlcd by po-
litical Wiscoacres eager to retain ins
nuance and prestige. are turning up
by their heels pro-Klan candidates
and announcing in a. manner patent-
ly convincing that the power of the
hooded falters is approaching an end.
it this is true in the South and
Southwest where some ground for
the lilan's existence could be set
i‘orth. because of the deep-rooted
animosity between the white and ne-
gro, how much faster will the. or-
ganization's decay be in the East
where ' it is purely on artificial
B‘rowth foisted on a gullible minority
by sharp-tongucd salesmen.
There may still be sporadic meet-
ings held in New Jersey and Con-
necticut and New York state. but the
coming election. we safely predict.
will in addition to electing a Presl-
dcnt, sound a death-knell to the
Klansmen's dream of political ascen-
dency.
Read what the Evening Sun of
Baltimore. a powerful and liberal or-
gan. in'a semi-Southern city. has to
say on the subject:
“'sllops for the Klan
"It begins to appear that even in
such Ku Klux srtongholds as Texas,
Oklahoma. and Arkansas .the public
is becoming heartily sick and tired
of the presumptionsu the absurdities
and the outrages o! the nightgown
brigade.
“One {rest reason. doubtless. for
the political successes of the 'invisla
bio empire' was that decent citizens
hesitated to enter into an open con-
ust scaainst the hooded horde.
Hence these who despised the him:
had to‘line up behind some curious
candidates in order to defeat it.

B. \V. Howe. the distinctly Ameri-

I lately read a book in which the
author attempted to summarize the
wisdom of all ages. Not only the
noted philosophers were included.
but the sayings of common people
which had persisted from age to
ago.
i noted that all seemed anxious to
give warning that will keep others
out of trouble: no one is willing to
«lie, and purposely leave a message
that will cause mischief. _
In summing it all up. the advice
nil all ages seemed so simple. so
much alike. that one men might
have written it.
This is a brief summary or it:

of good conduct;

simple, just rules. and observance
of them:
