W. M. W. Splawn of the University
of Texas in an address on Safety
Education before the recent meet-
iug of Safety Counci of Bexar
County here.
“The percentage of fatal acci-
dents in the United States is more
than twice as grat as that of
England, and almost fifty per cent
greater than that of Canada, which
is next to the United States on
the list,” Dr. Splawn' said. “In
tho year 1924 there were 85,000
fatal accidents. Twenty three) thou
sand of these were traffic fatali-
ties. Other public fatalities num-
bered 19,000 and the fatal acci-
dents within the homes of Ameri-
ca totasled 20,000. Industrial fatal-
ities reached 23,000 equalling in
number the fatalities from traffic
accident*. Non fatal personal in-
juries were estimated at from 5,.
000.000 to 10,000,000, and the
economic loss resulting from these
accidents ran into many millions
of dollars.
“The Safety movcment," Dr.
Splawn said, “may be regarded
in one sense as an attempt to catch
up with our mechanical develop-
ment.” Traffic accidents traceable
to drivers, he said, may be attri-
bufnd to four principal causes:
Mental or physical unfitness,
ignorance, indifference, and reck-
lessness.

The beginning of 1926 prosperity
in Johnson County was evidenced
Saturday in Cleburne when the
streets were crowded with farm-
ers, many of whom boya. their
summer buying with money receiv-
ed from the oat crop, a small por
tion of which bus already been
sold.
From morning till late at night
the people were st Pl congregated
on all the business streets of the
town, and merchants in all lines
of selling did a brisk business.
The event gave the Review an
ample opportunity to get a line
on crop conditiqns throughout the
entire County ahd interviews with
numerous farmers indicate that
prospects are better now than they
have been iu many years.
The oat crop is said to be better
even than the great grain crop
xq raised in 1919. Several men in the
* Rio Vista commqnity reported a
yield of more than 100 bushe’s to
the acre and high yields are re-
ported in all parts of tho County.
Will Hickman in the Bono com-
munity has thresh* d 75 acres of
his 200 acres of oats and got an
average yield of 89 bushels per
acre. He also threshed 10 acres of
Barley getting an average of 68
bushels to the Acre.
Northwest of Cleburne heavy
out rops are evidenced by big
yin ds. Threshing is just beginning
and reports indicate that the yield
win be greater than estimated.
This is true of all parts of the
County,
Much acreage was planted to
oats this ycur and the extra heavy
yield which is bringing, a fair
price of 34 to 40 cents per bushel

vot more indefinite than ever.

Seantor McNary, Republican, Ore-
gon, manager of the bill, made an-
other attempt today but failed again
when Senator Willis, Republican, of
Dhio, objected.
Although the Senate wan proceed-

were raised for the veteran Iowa .

to sell their products in this country
at world prices, the tariff protected
manufacturern soon would find
themnelves selling their goods at

“If you defeat this bill on th*
ground that the farmer must sell his
products an cheaply at homo as
abroad,” he added, “the whole pol-
icy of protection is doomed to ex-
tinction."
