of mating an advertised speed of more than sjxty
miles aa hour on an ordinary highway and many
motorists who um heavier and more expensive auto-
mobiles art accustomed to driving at a mile-a-minute
rate. Such speeds are not always as dangerous as one
might thing, although there la an element at danger
in any speed that exceeds fifteen or twenty miles an
hoyr. Automobiles are bdng,buflt for speed, and the
highways are being constructed so as to make q?eed
safer, bad curves being eftntoated and ether condi-
tions that heretofore have menaced speeding cars
being removed. The Legislature, in amending the
highway speed law, merely tooit cognisance of these
changed condition-* In sqrae stoles the spaed tfcait
on highways has been entirely removed, and motor-
isto may drive as fool aa they please so laag aa they
do not become reckless and endanger the livea of
other persons. In effect, we imagine, that will ba the
result of the amendment recently made In oar own
highway speed laws. . .

RELAYS) publication of a city ordlnane* proridtog
for the establishment of food and mint Inepeoflee)
has been begun, and the ordtnanee trill become ef-
fective within the next few days, upon completion of
publication. The law was approved with an emergency
clause on Juno 10th.
Briefly, the new ordinance directs the City
Manager to employ a competent veterinarian to serve
as city food inspector, the appointment to be ratified
by the City Council and his salary fixed by that bod?
His duties will include the inspection of all manner
of foods, including especially the meats and milk,
and all kinds of places and establishments in which
foods of any kind are sold or offered for sale or kep:
pending sale. Fbr the inspection of animals for
slaughter and sale, a fee will be charged by this of-
ficial, and it is expected that the fee* so collected
wQl help materially in providing revenue for his salary.
The ordinance as passed appears to be an all-
round statute providing for the establishment and
maintenance of food inspection, and as such it un-
doubtedly will have the endorsement of the ciitoec-
ship. It is oUd that the merchants and butchers and
dairymen are very much in favor of intelligent food
inspection as provided in this ordinance, because U
will benefit them by removing competition that em-
ploys unsantoary methods. Rood consumers favor the
ordinance became It promises them a large measure
of protection against bad foodstuffs; and for these
reasons It is hoped that no unnecessary delay may
occur before the inspector Is employed and the new
system is pat into operation.
The foodstuffs, including sank and mast* that
are being sold in Brownwood are probably no worse
than in any other city, but in every city It Is neces-
sary to nmlntaln city food inspection service as a
means of protecting consumers against bad foods
The very fact that there is such an inspection ser-
vice here as la contemplated tn the ordinance which
was published in this newspaper Mooday will cause
every dealer to be constantly alert to obeerve all the
sanitary regulations, and will result In an elevation
of the food standards of the city.

TO RESTRICT SANITY TRIALS
pRUITLEBS effort* have been made m the Legis-
lature during the peat few days to amend the lav so
as to it more difficult to secure a sanity trial as
a last minute method ot delaying the execution of a
criminal. The efforts have been fruitless
because of points of order, but they certainly have
been Justified by recent development*. When Pete
McKenzie, the slayer of a San Antonio police officer,
was literally snatched out of Um death chair by the
affidavit of a woman who swore that In her opinion
the m*n was insane, an example was set for other
condemned criminals and their Mends to follow. It la
significant of what we may expect as a result of the
McKcnxic Incident that Harry J. Leahy, on the day
before his scheduled execution for the brutal murder
of aa aged physician to Southwaat Texas, secured a
stay of execution and another chance to defeat Justice
when a woman filed an affidavit with the district court
tn Williamson county, declaring her belief that Leahy
had become insane since his trie! The order of
execution was held up and Leahy Is to be tried on July
22. Since the trial is to be before a Jury, there Is a
possibility that Leahy may yet escape the death chair
and be confined to an insane asylum
Such abuse* of the law point to the necessity for
its amendment a legislator from Mathis, the boms of
Leahy's victim, attempted to amend the statute so
that an affidavit from a sheriff county physician, or
warden or physician of a penitentiary would be neces-
sary to secure a sanity hearing for a condemned man.
Such an amendment, it seems to uk. would be wise,
inasmuch as it would provide a safeguard against the
execution of an insane man and at the time
would make it impossible for a friend ot a condemned
man to secure a two or three weeks' stay of execution
by the preparation and riling of a false affidavit. In
UataYs case the sanity hearing that has been ordered
as s result of the Williamson county woman's affidavit
is peculiarly farcical. Leahy lacked a great deal of
being a crazy man during his trails. In the first trial
he served s* his own counsel, and when the Jury gave
him a sentence of fifty years Imprisonment he was
smart enough to appeal hie case and win a reversal
and a new trial on orders of the Court of Criminal
Appeal*. In hie second hearing, which reaulted tn s
death sentence, he assisted hi* own counsel, and much
of the work that has been don* to connection with
the appeals and plea* for rehearings since his second
conviction ha* been done by himself. If he is insane
now, therefore, he got that way very recently. The law
now makes It mandatory upon a district court to order
a defendant condemned to death before it for a sanity
trial when anyone files aa affidavit that he has
reasons to believe the condemned man is insane. In
order to promote Justice and the execution of the
decrees of thy criminal court* it M imperative that
some restrictions be placed upon such a provision.

YJU ASHINOTON—On the fifth floor of the office
building that houses members of the house of
representatives is a brisk, pleasant little woman who
holds probably the most Important unofficial position
tn the United States congress.
She Is Mr* Harriott Daley, chief operator of the
private branch telephone aadiances that serves sena-
tors and representatives, who is charged with the duly
of seeing that a dally average of 27.000 calls are hand,
led properly.
Her switchboard Is large enough to serve a falr-
sleed city The oails she put* through are of vital im-
port to the nation
There are 1700 stations to use on capital hill In
addition there are too extension station* There are
three times ae many telephones as there are senators
and representative*
From this switchboard tn the house office build-
ing there are 99 Knee run directly la other government
departments scattered over Washington, and to the
White House. The city central offices are connected
with 23 trunk lines.
Sixteen young women fill positions at the beard
Three other position* are held In reserve for future
growth. One operator does nothing but handle tor*
distance calls originated by senator* and represent*
five* Three handle the incoming call* Five look after
calls made by senators. Six are required to attend to
the needs of representative*
These voting women must not only be efficient
operator* but also must carry la their minds masses
of detail regarding congress and congressional activi-
ties. »
Throughout the day they are literally bombarded
with such questions as
“Who is serving on such-and-such committee?"
“Who Is the representative from the sixth con-
gressional district of Maryland?"
All of this information is available in bulletin*
but Mr* Daisy says her girls seldom find It necessary
to refer to them.
Mr* Daley ha* seen 90 years of service at the
congressional switchboard. She remembers that her
first position was at toe tone when there was only
