The report is valuable because it is able to base its findings upon the operation of several Ameérican laws and reports issued by committees working on the me subject in the United States It makes this important point: Com- pulsory automobile liability insurance 1s not the same as workingmen’s compen- sation insurance, in spite of the fact that this comparison is often made. “It is not proposed,” says the report, “that all persons who injuries from the operation of automobile, should be in demnified for such injury.” The injur- ed party is quite often at fault and the insured party not liable. “Putting the proposal at its highest point of social service, the purpose of compulsory automobile liability insurance is to secure the financial responsibility of motorists for any injury caused by the operation of an automobile, for which poendsliofndescfaofndocidedododoofociodforrofdidocfociododssondodecondosfondocesdndo sloop ofododotsofedociofedocoodofufefecfnfodoeingonfodofiedoofonfoefnfsiofoof-focfndoer CHRIS LONG THE snow fl their dow While eclangin the Christ It is the hous fire burns And in its de Christmas I see the littl hind the To us it was earthly ill The blazing 1 forth a rt To tinge the fi wreaths o I see the little ingel nook I sce the childi bright the While from ti rar An s leg: iz 3.» : in the campaign that exceeded what is they may be legally liable. : mer voic considered a greater sum than is neces- This strips the case to the bone.

Two or three letters a week containing six to ten censs in postage were received all of which were ed to the waste basket, because the “long green” was missing. Vare and Pepper, likewise wealthy but minus the guts and gall, paid for this publicty and now Mr. Pinchot is using every effort to have Vare refused his seat in the senate. Senator Newberry of Michigan was his seat in the senate several ago because it was shown he spent relieve many innocent persons of suf- fering, misery and want? Such a law is more important, but as it would touch everybogly it is not so popular to ad- vocate as a law cathching only a percent- age of the people. i DIVIDING THE PROFITS Because of the better long-distance telephone line service now available, and fall on a few scattered pioneers, the Bell System is able to offer a nationwide cut on long-distance ‘phone rates.
