THE OTHER HALF Many automobile drivers who think they know about the right-of-way law understand only half of it. In answer to the question, "Who has the right-of-way?" the average driver would quickly reply, "The man on the right." The answer is partially correct but isn't complete. The best statutes on the subject say: "The car on the right has the right-of-way provided it enters the intersection first, but If the car on the left happens to be first into the intersection, the car on the right roust yield." Maxwell Halsey, traffic engineer of the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters, says the best way to eliminate confusion on this point is for all cars to slow down when approaching intersections. "In this way drivers will be able to gauge each other's distance and obey the )aw with greater convenience. "The driver of a car approaching from the right has no justification to suppose that all traffic must stop to permit him to cross.

This attitude has produced a high toll of accidents. More than twice as many accidents occur at intersections as between intersections. Last year 2,430 persons were killed and 384,750 injured in 146,500 accidents resulting from misunderstandings over the State laws should be clarified In order to coincide with common sense and the free flow of traffic. If this is done, another bad hazard will be eliminated.

Tnc TODAY The PrMident's Address. The 100 Short History Flyln a Strikes May Be Expensive. NEW YORK, July population of the United and great part of the civilize'l world outside, discusses President Roosevelt's admirable radio address. Its deep slncereity-and lofty purpose. "Omens" do not the President, who speaks with pride of the crowded events of hundred days" since his Inauguration, that have been devoted to "starting the wheels of the NEW DEAL' The expression, the "hundred days," was first used to describe the period between Napoleons return from Elba, March IS 1815, and June 28, 1815, when Louis XVIII became king, and the prefect ot Paris, welcoming him, spoke of the cent jours.

These "hundred days" to President Roosevelt mean dayo that "will start the wheels turning NOW, and not six months iroin now." President Roosevelt is not interested in anything around the corner. Hia anecdote about Andrew Jackson, of whom it was said, when some one asked "Will he go to Heaven?" "He will if he to." was well applied by the President to the American people's ability to pun themselves out of-this depression, "They will if they want to Andrew Jackson, who doubtless did want to go to Heaven, And is there, would be interested in his present successor in the White House, who closed every Dank in the country in one day, and did it gently, without any invocation of "the eternal." Those who have mistakenly believed that President Roosevelt is In the hands of a "brain trust," convinced that earth's problems can be solved aout of a book, are set right by the President's reminder, "I happen to know that professional economists hayo changed their definition of economic laws every five or ten years lor a very long time." For him Adam Smith is as old ag Hammurabi and Euskm ie a fairy story. The President's hopes were ad-, mirably expressed in these few words, "But I do liave faith and retain faith in the strength of com- nion ipurposo, and in the of unified action taken by the American people." Since President Roosevelt broadcast Washington reports that messages from business men and others promising co-operation will! the President are severely taxing the facilities of both telegraph companies and "completely swamp- Ing the clerical staff at the White House," Emerson says, "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. President Roosevelt has succeeded in arousing among successful men in this country such professions of enthusiasm as have not been seen since the enthusiasm the French revolution, when French nobles, one after the other, publicly abandoned their titles and insisted on being called plain "monsieur." Twenty-four years ago yesterday the Frenchman Louis Bleriot Jiew across the English Channel, startling the world, and the British especially. When that happened, after Lord Northcliffe, owner of the London Daily Mall, had olercd ten thousand pounds reward for such a flight, England's greatest defense became meaningless.

Napoleon sat on the edgu of ihe channel, waking for the wind to change, but never crossed. Now any boy can fly from the continent, land in England, and, if undeterred, drop what he pleases on any city. Northcliffe. by the wsy, told the writer that, having offered the ten thousand pounds reward, he got "Lioyds" to insure him for a trifle against paying, and Uoyda paid the 10.000 pounds to Bleriot. Real flying began when Orville Wright flew with a Ueavier-than air plane 120 feet.

Then Bleriot flew across the channel, then Lindbergh flew the Atlantic to Paris. Now Wiley Post, in a little more than seven days, flies around the world. The Italian air admiral Balbo, Is flying home, on the return trip to Italy, with his fleet of airships in perfect formation. When progress starts it rnovi rapidly.

The moving picture in dustry. as it happens, pays the highest wages of any industry on the Pacific coast. If strikes "and "sympathetic strikers" succeed in tying up the moving picture Indus try in California, they wilj maki 30,000 workers idle and put an end to a payroll of $1.500,000 a week That should be done at leas thoughtfully, for it is easier to destroy than to create a $1,500,000 payroll.
