Cooper's Store - Owing* Mills Frank Zlto's Store - Plkesvllle LOGIE BONNETT, Editor and Manager SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 1924 Begin 35 Mile Limit State Roads Comm/ Last week we told of the dismissal of an automobilist by a county magistrate who was arrested on the charge of speeding by a patrolman. Although the offense was flagrant, he was dismissed because he was not going over 35 miles an hour and his defense was that he was guided by the sign of the State Roads Commission. In another case on the Reisterstown road a patrolman did not accept the invitation sign as the law of the State. A gentleman from Towson was the guest of a city man. They drove out the road in a high powered machine. Near a public school house in a thickly settled section they saw the 35-mile speed invitation; the driver accepted it and was going the limit. The patrolman stopped them and in a very nice way said: "You are driving too fast," The owner of the machine said: "I thought so myself, but I was going by the yellow sign." The patrolman replied: "The yellow sign don't go on this road, because it is not the law; there's a school house just, ahead and the traffic is always heavy. Go ahead, but don't do it again." Two negro truck drivers hauling very heavy loads of stone stopped on the York Road beside a 20-mile and 35-mile sign. They were discussing the signs and the purpose for which they were intended. One of them said: "When I'se empty I kin make it, but when I has a load on de bes I kin do is 30 ^nilejs. I wondah kin dey 'rest me fo' 'dat?" And so it goes, all kinds of people will place their construction on these signs—but to everyone it is an invitation, in a number of places, to trouble and possible disaster. What the State Roads Commission should do is to place signs of warning and caution on the roads for there are thousands of drivers of machines now on the road who need no in vitation to speed. On a fine road in a Southern State where you travel for miles without seeing a house of any kind, often through swamps, you will find these signs placed by the road authorities: "This is a good road; it will cost you money to •burn it up." In a Northern State the road signs read: "Run slow and see our towns; run fast and you'll see our jails." If the Commission insists these signs remain, we hope the State's Attorney will instruct the patrolmen and constables in what the law as to speed really is so as to counteract as much as possible this attempt to make our crowded thoroughfares speedways for reckless automobilists. AGAIN WE SAY "IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH." Some time ago The Jeffersonian suggested that the . various Improvement Assns. here, there and everywhere in the county get together and form an amalgamated body to handle problems that would affect the county as a whole, but for the lack of "pep" on the part of someone, the suggestion seems to have fallen by the wayside and been lost. At this very time when the United Railways is seeking an increase in fares, very effective work could be gotten in by an amalgamated organization, but even though the suggestion fell on deaf ears, we urge that all im provement associations repre senting communities affected by street car travel climb on the band-wagon with those of Baltimore city and show their indignation against an increased "tax" by the street railway monopoly. WHO WILL HE BE? The man to be nominated by the Democratic Party for President of the United States must not be a self-seeker. He must possess all the good qualities of all possibilities mentioned and none of their shortcomings and must form the nearest approach to the American people's ideal of a Chief Executive. He must be for the League of Nations, a sensible tariff law, fair play for both capital and labor, aid for the farmers and the reduction of taxes. He must stand for the highest American principles in all relationships with foreign countries. He must be a spokesman for the poor man as well-as the rich in their protection under the institutions of the Government. Nineteen twenty-four is a Democratic year. The standard bearer should be a man who is as big in many ways as Wilson—bigger than Coolidge, and who stands for all the fine things that Democracy has stood for throughout its existence. CIVILIZATION AND THE WHEEL. Civilization is largely a product of co-operation and co-operation grows out of contact—the contact1 of men with men and with the facts, forces, laws and resources of nature. When man first made his start along the winding and ever widening pathway which we call history, he was not an impressive figure. Compared with many of the beasts about him, he was a mere pigmy in size and strength. It consumed all his time and effort to obtain enough to eat, covering for his body and shelter for himself and family. In one particular, man was unique. He was endowed with reason and with the inventive, creative instinct. He was moved by an irresistable inner impulse to make things, to build something to go somewhere in order to find something and then bring it back. Like so many of his descend- ants today, he wanted to get ahead. Through hitching his mind and his muscle together he began to make progress, and this progress was measured by the growth of his ability to use the energies and forces1 of the world about him to help in carrying the load. At this point there was born the science of transportation, which ever since has been a vital factor in all real progress. What an event it was when someone first discovered or invented the wheel. We do not know how, when or where it happened, but we do know that the first time the wheel was put under a human burden there was born our wonderful mechanical civilization. In time the wheel became a cart—the cart a coach, the coach a railway train. By glimpsing these far-away beginnings, one can better understand the meaning and value of those vast and complicated systems of transportation which today cover the world, and without which our whole civilization would fall apart. There is, and always has been a real connection between transportation and progress. The most prosperous, progressive and civilized peoples always have the best systems of transportation— the most backward have the worst systems or none at all. By means of his devising man today can out-swim the fish, outrun the wolf and out-fly the eagle. If the transportations systems of the world were suddenly to be destroyed, trade would languish and nations would dissolve into clans and tribes. Man would fall below most of the animal creatures in the art of getting about and end where he had begun—at the tail end of the procession. Beyond all others, the American people have builded their civilization upon their transportation systems. More and more they are coming to realize that their happiness and prosperity are dependent upon the prosperity, progress and adequacy of their railroads cor railroads constitute their chief means of transportation. For nearly a hunded years along these steel highways there has rolled an ever-increasing volume of wealth. Towns, counties, cities and States have been created in the wilderness. The resources of the nation have been opened to trade and commerce. Common ideas and ideals have spread' over the rails among the widely separated sections of the nation until now it is possible for all to be moved and moulded by one spirit. COMPLAINTS BY HUNDREDS REACH COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ABOUT DOGS. Problem Becoming Serious One And Must Be Viewed From Various Angles — People Owning Pets Must Co-Operate To Rid Community Of Nuisance. (Continued from Page 1) sus of opinion is that if the people co-operate with the county authorities the packs of hounds of all breeds and dimensions that prowl 'round day and night can be eradicated. Those laboring under the impression that the "round up" is the explicit purpose of adding more funds to the county treasury are dead Avrong, for under the law monies derived from dog licenses can be used for ho other purpose than to pay for live stock and fowls killed by dogs. TO SAIL FOR EUROPE MAY 1ST. On May 1st Miss Mabel Wilson Whitely, of Ventnor, near Catonsville will sail for a prolonged tour of Europe. ----------o---------- RETURNS FROM FLORIDA. (L&QJKStK} << (By D. F.) GRANDMA'S BIRTHDAY. Clarence B. Klohr, of xear Ran-dallstown, has returned from a visit in Florida with his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. E. Klohr, formerly of Towson. ----------o---------- MUSICAL AND LITERARY ENTERTAINMENT. A musical and literary entertainment will be held in the lecture room of Towson M. E. Church on Monday night, under the auspices of the Men's Community Bible Class. A silver collection will be lifted at the door. This will be the first collection asked from the public since the tabernacle was erected one year ago by the members in one day. The men will have on sale abundance of home-made candy and we wish for them liberal patronage. Tomorrow"s grandma's birthday, I wonder what she'll get! I know she wants a carton Of her favorite cigarette, She wants some low-heeled sandals, And hand-embroidered hose, Or crepe de chine pajamas. She's daft about her clothes! A pocket flask 'her's vanished The night our house was robbed!) She needs a curling iron Now that her hair is bobbed. Some classy new jazz records And brimming o'er with pep, Shes taking dancing lessons, And she does the latest step! SHE WINS. They sat upon the garden stile— The youthlet and the maid; "The stars above are not so bright As you," he softly said. She lifted up her little hand Toward Luna's golden light; "The moon above is not so full As you, my dear, tonight." THE A B C OF DOMESTIC SCIENCE. Selby—Won't you' dine with me? Grimes—Trank you, I've just dined! I have been home and had my regular meal of apples, apricots and asparagus. Selby—Isn't that a rather odd combination? Grimes—Well, you see, my wife went to a domestic science school and had to leave after the first week —before she had reached the second letter of the alphabet. THE YOUNG GENERATION VINDICATED. "Hard at it, Mrs. Grey?" "Yes, Mrs. Blucher; this is my washing day, and looking after a family of ten doesn't leave much time on my hands." "Is that Kitty's voice I hear at the piano in the parlor?" "Yes, that's her. I don't know how I'd get along without that girl. Always on these days she picks out her nicest pieces, like 'Sweet Rest By and By,' 'Mother's Growing Old,' 'Love Will Roll the Clouds Away,' and sings them for me while I'm running the clothes through the first water. 'Taint every girl who'd be so thoughtful, I can tell you." WHERE THE MINISTER GOT HIS SHARE. "Was your bazar a success?" inquired Gladys. "It certainly was," responded Mabel with enthusiasm. "The minister will surely have cause to be very grateful." "How much did you make?" "Oh, the expenses were a good bit more than the receipts. But, then, ten of us got engaged, so the minister will make a good thing in wedding fees a little later." ----------o---------- SWEET DADDY! Oh, her name was Irene And she wore crepe de chine— You could see more Irene Than you could crepe de chine. ----------o---------- CONDUCTOR. I like to see people thrifty, but not too thrifty. I went down to the station the other day and before I could enter the building one of these thrifty fellows collared me. "Say," he said, "are you taking this train to Boston?" I told him I expected to. He asked me if I had any baggage, and I told him I had none. "Well," he said, "you are the man I am looking for. I have two trunks and I want to get out of paying excess baggage. Now, I want you to have one of my trunks checked," I said, "I can't do it without a ticket." "But," he said, "you just told me you were going to take this train." "I am," I said. "I'm the conductor." ---------------o---------------¦ HOW HE TOOK THE PICKLE. The doctor had been treating a man for ryspepsia for a long time, and finally, wishing to know how his patient was coming on, he told him to take a dill pickle just before going to bed and see if he could hold it on his stomach over night. The next day the doctor asked him the result. "It was alright, doctor, as long as I was awake; but when I went to sleep it rolled off." ----------o---------- CORRECT. John was the son of parents who were sufficiently popular to receive more invitations than they could conveniently accept. In the course of a general knowledge lesson, the master asked: "Can any boy tell me the meaning of the letters R. S. V. P."? John's hand shot up. "Well?" said the master. "It means," explained John, "rush in, shake hands, and vanish pleasantly.' ----------o---------- HE WAS WILLING. LOGAN FIELD, DUNDALK, APPROVED FOR INTERNATIONAL EVENT BY CONTEST GROUP. Foreign Entrants Will Spend More Than $100,000 To Participate In Schneider Trophy Race, Scheduled For October. (Continued from Page 1) the Schneider trophy race in England last year, said the triangular' course mapped out here is equal to any over which the race has been flown. The take-off will be from Bay Shore Park, and the planes will circle Gibson's Island and Hunting Field Point and return to the park. Several changes in launching the planes before the race were suggested by the visitors. It is planned to place three planes from each nation abreast on the runway with motors idling, so that they may take to the water and start in turn. It also was suggested that the three-kilometer course be laid out to permit trials for world-record speeds on straightaway. A number of fast racers will be entered by the Italian and British aviators, and new speed records for seaplanes on the closed course and the straightaway are predicted. The American team which captured the trophy last year is expected to be represented by one of its members. Other entries will include the Wright plane, entered in last year's races, but which failed to start; the Curtiss racer, piloted by Lieut. A. J. Williams, which broke all speed records in St. Louis and Mitchell Feild, and several fast racers built by Scott Paine, owner of the Supermar-ine Company of England. Foreign entrants will spend more than $100,000 to participate in the trophy race here, it is estimated. Officers of the local flying club were hosts at a luncheon at the Maryland Club held in honor of the visitors. Officials of the United Railways were present. They pledged their co-operation in handling transportation problems during the air event. OFFICIAL WASHINGTON IS UNEASY AS WAR CLOUDS ARISE IN THE WEST. Half Dozen Ill-Chosen Words From Jap Ambassador, A Paupable Threat, Deliberately Aimed To Frighten Congress Has Put Senate In Ugly Mood. "A western governor had lost one of the colonels of his staff and there was an unseemly scramble for the office, despite the fact that the colonel's body was awaiting burial. One of the most ambitious candidates went so far as to call upon the executive and ask: "Governor, have you any objections to my taking Colonel Smith's place?" "No," the governor replied complacently, "I have no objections if the undertaker is willing." (Continued from Page 1) humored her oversensitiveness and in various ways has sought to smooth her fur the right way, with the result of developing her arrogance rather than making a friend of the island empire. Just a few months ago our warships and merchant vessels were rushing to her aid with nurses, doctors, medical supplies, lumber for shelter, tents, blankets and millions in cash to alleviate her distress. Today (with the last check for three millions barely cashed) she flings a challenge to us that would seem to mean only war, unless cool heads and wise counsel prevail. The Congress is in no mood to show the white feather. Robust Americanism feels that we are too proud and courageous to permit a threat from any nation to alter our determination qf purely domestic questions. The common attributes of sovereignity are involved. Ambassador Hanihara in his letter to Secretary Hughes referred to "the grave consequences" of such action by the Congress as would be offensive to the national sensibilities of Japan. The language of the House immigration bill makes no distinction between the Japs and other oriental or yellow races; the Japs are not specially singled out, but are treated as belonging to those races which are not, because of their nature, assimilable. The amendment proposed in the Senate to prevent the House bill from abrogating the ["gentlemen's agreement" which Roosevelt made with Japan, under which she agreed to limit immigration within certain lines through, the .withholding of passports, would doubtless had been adopted had it not been for the words of Hanihara's note. These words were like the proverbial red flag flung in the face of a bull; the Senate turned face about and defeated the proposed amendment by the decisive vote of 76 to 2. Only Senators Sterling and Colt voted for the amendment—both happening to be Republicans. In the language of diplomacy, "grave consequences" can mean a severance of diplomatic relations, or actual war. In the practice of diplomacy certain rather delicate phrases have come to have very positive and emphatic meanings. For instance, when Germany threatened invasion of Belgium and France the Premier of the latter country inquired by note as to the attitude of England; Sir Edward Gray replied very briefly that in such an event "His Majesty's government would consult with the Government of France. The latter Government read just one single meaning in that line—that England's army, her great navy and all of the resources of her far-flung empire would be thrown into the contest on the side of France. When one thinks of that delicately worded sentence and of all the tremendous consequences which flowed from its penning, the present crisis assumes its true proportions. The United States has never brooked dictation as to her domestic policies; she is not liable to begin at this hour. It would seem that there are few courses open if war is to be avoided. One course which has often been adopted in similar situations is to recall the ambassador who gave the offense, leaving at least the inference that he exceeded instructions or acted upon his own mistaken initiative, but in this case Japan backs him up. It is hard- ly conceivable that Hanihara would utter such serious words without clear and positive instructions. America need no longer have doubts as to the real attitude of Japan toward this country. While the ambassador may yet be made the scapegoat as Japan is hardly in condition for war, we will not hear the last of the matter for many years. The Japs are warlike, have a good navy and a good army, and in case of hostilities would attack us at our back door, so to speak, Hawaii first. They are over-proud and sensitive and play much politics at home; their victory over Russia almost turned their heads, and if the newspaper accounts at the time were true, they attacked Russia while protesting deep and abiding friendship—it was stated in dispatches from the Far East at the time that Japan sent such a message after her fleet, with decks cleared for action, had sailed from Nagasaki to attack Port Arthur, only 600 miles distant—a two-day's sail. If this is true, an attack from Japan now or at some future time, will come without warning, like a bolt from the blue. In a crisis of this sort there could be nothing finer than the unanimity with which the Senators lined up almost as one man for the protection of the honor, dignity and sovereignity of the country. There was not seen in the debate the slightest indication of politics or partisanship. SPEED LIMIT SIGNS SHOULD HELP DOCTORS AND UNDERTAKERS. "Step On Gas" Invitations Placed Along Highways By State Roads Commission Makes Efforts Of Police To Keep Reckless Drivers Down, Useless. (Continued from Page 1) ange background reading: "Begin 35 Mile Speed Limit," the State motorcycle police force might as well be mustered out of service and the county police department thrown into discard, for it makes their efforts to keep reckless drivers down amount to nothing. Through its columns The Jeffersonian has asked the State Roads Commission for an explanation in placing these signs, but the chairman of this ancient and honorable body has been like a clam, not opening his mouth. People everywhere are indignant at the impudence of the Commission to create speedways out of roads which pedestrians must also use, and if the Commission has made up its mind to let these signs stand, and by so doing, telling those unfortunates who must use "Shank's Mare" to go to the hot place, it may be necessary for every pedestrian who values his life to use balloon shoes or insist that the county authorities erect over-head crossings and railed sidewalks. Right here in Towson one of these signs is planted on the York Road alongside a cemetery—yea, quite an appropriate place. In another village one appears directly opposite a doctor's office—another appropriate spot, and in still another community one obstructs the view of an undertaker's window, lo, a very appropriate designation. Travel on all the roads throughout Baltimore county, where these "step on the gas" invitations have been erected is growing heavier daily, and so is pedestrian travel. The roads are but wide enough to allow two machines to pass with ease and it is no problem to solve to see what becomes of the walkers, the greater portion of whom are children going and coming from school. Think of a huge motor truck thundering along the road at 35 miles per hour or a high powered motor car doing 35 miles or better, when a group of children emerge from a side road there is no chance for either to slap on their brakes and stop, hence young lives are mown down like the scythe -mows the hay, and the State Roads Commission deems this perfectly all right. Upon the highways over which the State Roads Commission has jurisdiction, there were hundreds of serious accidents last year, and in the face of this the speed limit signs which The Jeffersonian is protesting so vigorously have been placed telling motorists to go the limit.
