departments and this phase of the
program is usually handled well.
However, the police can do little to
improve safety records unless they
have the support of the public. It
should be the purpose of the local
safety organization to provide that
support.
j Using Cleveland as an example of
■what a community working togeth-
er for a single purpose can accom-
plish. Williams told how a reorgani-
zation of the police department,
the appointment of a traffic en-
gineer and the organization of
safety council was able to reduce
the traffic fatality rate more than
50 per cent in a year Other cities
which have made good safety rec-
ords through the use citlzen-sup-
i port groups included Evanston, Dal-
> las and Aberdeen.
•'From our experience in our
' traffic safety programs, we have
been able to deduce the essentials
necessary for the success of future
programs in other cities," Williams
said. "First, there must be the co-
I operation between the public offi-
cials and the safety council Un-
| less the city officials are willing to
help, the program is doomed to
failure."
"Second, each of the business and
civic groups in the city must give
their whole-hearted co-operation to
a safety program, and third, the
man picked to lead the safety cru-
sade should be the most important
rfnd biggest man in the commun-
ity."
"Also Important Ls the program

"'The only way in which to ac-
complish a worthwhile, practical
safety program Is througn a com-
munity safety organization in which
everyone works together." Sidney J.
Williams, director of the public
safety division of the National Safe-
ty Council, told the seminar.
‘Holding meetings, appointing
ccinimttees, making speeches and
drawing up appeals to drive care-
fully is all right, but these things
ate only a means to an end To ac-
complish these things there must be
a safety organization that exists
for the sole purpose of getting done

MARRIAGE IS ENDANGERED BY

"The causes of unhappy marri-
ages are the Mine the world over,**
says Judge Joseph Babath of Chi*
cago, who baa heard the storlea
leading up to some 60.000 divorcee
and la therefore tn a position to
know something of the causes that
bring once happily married couples
to Jhe parting of the ways. As a
visiting judge in the divorce courts
of London, Paris, Munich, Home,
Prague and Vienna, as well as In
his own court. Judge Babath has
formed his own Ideas of what
causes broken homes. It is his opin-
ion that the modern way of life is
largely responsible. He says: "Mod-
ern marriage is handicapped at the
outset by modem living Marriage
mills, gin weddings, life in a crack-
er-box flat, working wives, tin-can
meals and interfering in-laws are
mighty troublesome for marriage
ties."

followed Don't try to find some new
way to prevent accidents. Other
cities have already tried and failed
Instead, use the reliable and tested
methods that have already brought
safety laurels to Cleveland, Dallas
and others."
"A competent executive secretary,
an adequate budget and the assist-
ance qj professional traffic en-
gineers are necessities that must
be met. Too. the free pamphlets
and other material offered by the
National Safety Council should be
studied and the plans offered there-
in utilized.”
Williams said the National Coun-
cil was always ready to offer all
possible aid to cities desiring it
in their safety programs He said
the council was always ready to
provide publications on any phase
of accident preventing and answer
inquiries for information as well as
aid cities in starting their council.
Also, the National Council gives
awards every year for the best
traffic safety Job for the period 1
"There are Just a few of the ways ,
the National Council can help, but
we feel they are worthwhile Cer- |
talnly the saving of a life or the
prevention of an injury is a worth-
while project."

Few in College
Though few women work out of
the home the labor laws are of
equal status, with some special pro-
tection of women in maternity.
Women may attend any school or
university they desire, but Mexi-
can women do not seek higher ed-
ucation to any great extent because
of the feeling that knowledge will
make them less interesting to men.
Closing her talk
That advancement of women in
Mexico is a psychological problem,
and that both men and women
must overcome the traditions of In-
, daln and Spanish descent, and
through the Spanish, the Moorish
influence, before any great prog-
ram in equality of the aexm i«
made, waa the gist of a talk by
Senora EspeHUMB) Balmuceda de
Joetfe of the University of Mexico,
speaking at a meeting of the Den-
ton branch of A. A. U. W. Monday
evening.
' Being professor of theory and
technique of social work In the Uni-
versity of Mexico, Senora de Jo-
•ofe ia an authority on problems af-
fecting women in her country, and
has studied conditions in othfr
countries. She mentioned that
Mexican women are slow to demand
rights, affected as men are by tra-
ditions. but that a small number
are beginning to demand a place
in Ufa as well as in the home.
Among the Indian tribes especially
ancient traditions of the inferiority
and submission of women prevail.
The civil codes of 1917 brought a
a great change in the status of
women, the speaker said, giving
them equal control with men over
their property and pernion to
work without a husband's consent.
An amendment for votes for wom-
en was pending when it was time
for the recent election but the men
held the matter up because they
were afraid of what the women
feltad and take possession of 28
Italian and two German ships
put under protective custody by the
coast guard after their crews at-
tempted sabotage. Mr Roosevelt
said the ships were subject to for-
feiture.
While the Danish vessels are ex-
pected to go into the "bride of
ships" which President Roosevelt
promised Britain for transporting
American war supplies, the Axis
ships, if forfeited, would go into
the American merchant fleet The
president said they could be hand-
ed over to some other country only
if the United States were at war
with Germany and Italy.

WASHINGTON, April 9. -(AT—
An outspoken suggestion by the
chief of the maritime commission
that the United States might well
help Britain combat Nasi convoy
raiders aroused fresh discussion
here today of the possibility of an
early government move toward giv-
ing the British naval assistance.
The commission chairman. Rear
Admiral Emory A Land, U 8. N.
retired, compared German subma-
rine attacks on British shipping
to a bonfire and said Americans
should ask themselves whether they
could not “give greater help by
aiding the British to put out the
fire than by concentrating our ef-
forts on feeding it with fuel.”
Britain's losses “are now occur-
ring at a rate close to 5,000,000 tons
a year.” he said, adding: "It is
obvious that large as the British
merchant marine was before the
war, it cannot long withstand such
losses." Moreover, he declared,
America and Britain together can-
not furnish adequate replacements.
■d, President Roosevelt’s key
in shipping phases of the de-
fense program, spoke over the ra-
dio last night. Earlier In the day
Mr Roosevelt had disclosed to his
press conference plans to add 39
seized Danish ships, totaling ap-
proximately 135,000 tons, to tile
American merchant marine.
The president will ask Congress
tomorrow for funds to purchase the
vessels, which probably will be turn-
ed over the Britain eventually.
Tlie chief executive also Indicated

Must Be Cultivated
Marriage, like a plant, must be
cultivated tenderly, he remarked.
"You can't toss the seed on bar-
ren topsoil, trample it with your
feet and expect it to blossom.”
Among the warnings he posts in
the path of those who are contem-
plating marriage are the follow-
ing:
Avoid May and December mat-
ings
Don*t live with in-laws
Don't let finances “Just work out.”
Don’t forget marriage is a sacred
pact.
Don’t forget children make the
match.
“Most of these cases would be
over in a minute if we'd all apply
the philosophy of bear and for-
bear.” he said.
