WHAT SOME CITIES ARE DOING TO STOP THE AUTO SPEEDER Drastic Rules Necessary to Curb the Growing List of Fatalities Last 6 Months Worst. Chicago, Sept. 20. Despite the passage of numerous ordinances and the adoption of traffic regulations in the larger cities of the country in an effort to curb accidents from motor cars, reports from more than a dozen of the metropolitan cities of the mid dle west show en increase in the number of accidents for the first six months of 1922, compared with the same period of 1921. ' This increase has caused city of-' ficials to prescribe drastic rules in governing motor traffic in an en deavor to lessen danger in modern traveling. Several of the cities are shown to be waging war on the auto speeder, in many cases imprisonment being added to fines by municipal judges. Adoption of rules in turn ing at street intersections, elimina tion of glaring headlights and educa tional campaigns are other methods used in many cities in the campaign against accidents. j In Chicago in 1921. deaths attrib-; uted to motor accidents totalled 575 as compared with 475 in 1920. Xon-' fatal accidents totalled 8.637 in 1921 and 7. 085 in 1920. During the first four months of 1922, non-fatal ac cidents totalled 2,533-. Killings at Cleveland Forty-three persons were killed and 1,055 injured in automobile ac cidents in Cleveland from February 1, to August 1, 1922. To offset this, workhouse sentences have been im posed upon speeders and reeklees drivers. No one under eighteen years of age may drive a car, and second offense for failure to have lights burning results in arrest, no. mstter what the circumstances. j To curb accidents in St. Louis, where Bixty-two were killed during the first six months of this year and; 1,327 were injured, an educational j campaign has been started, one-way i traf ic has been established in con-j gerted districts during business' hours, automobiles must come to complete stop at all boulevards, must not pass a street car discharging! rnrsengers, and must not exceed ' eight miles an hour in the congested j districts and twenty miles in the residential districts. Detroit's attempts to increase safe ty are the adoption of the tower sys tem of regulating traffic and the es tablishment of safety zones for street, car passengers. Another ordinance j requires all persons to be able to j drive an automobile under all con-i ditions before being granted a 6tate driver's license. Seventy persons were killed there during -the first six monthr or 1922" and 1,921 were injured. v Strict enforcement of speed laws and frequent jail sentences for the speeders and reckless drivers has been the method adopted in Indian apolis for increasing safety. In down town sections traffic officers direct pedestrians, while others di rect street traffic. Stop Signs at Oklahoma City In Oklahoma City, most of the i main traveled streets have been des- . S" " I'l'Uiewiiuu aim ueiuie n . i 1 1 l 1 J 1 X hour above the rpeed limit. Peniten- tiarj- sentence under charge of man slaughter is provided for drivers found responsible for deaths result ing from accidents. Cars must be under full control at all street in tersections.

Tool, Neuman & Murtey, MURDOCK -:- -:- -:- NEBRASKA EX-KAISER TO FACE FAMILY OPPOSITION Children of Former Emperor Bit terly Resent Father's Coming Karriage to Widow. Doom, Sept-. 21. The marriage of former Kaiser Wilhelm will occur not with the freely given consent of the entire Hohenzollern family, as reported from Berlin, but despite : their bitter opposition and, above all, against the strongly expressed wish of the crown prince, according to in formation secured from a source very , close to the former kaiser. The relations between the crown prince and his father have lately be come very strained, it is stated. The j crown prince over a fortnight ago, instead of staying at Doom castle, in stalled himself at the Amerongen castle with Count Bentick. Thp nimnsitinn of the rrown nrlnce and other members of the imperial j family may be due, it is said, to fi nancial reasons, rather than senti ments of pride or caste. Those in a position to know say that the former kaiser's sons and especially the crown prince, reduced to leading a very simple life by their father's dictates, may fear that the marriage will make their situation worse. They also fear further complications and contests In the event of the death of the kaiser, when his personal fortune, estimated at $20,000,000, must be divided. FATHER SUES FOP.

Since the republican state com mittee has not 8e?n fit to send Gov ernor McKelvie out to make cam paign ppeeches, except one at North Loup, the governor has gone ahead and arranged three political meet ings for next M-eek on his own ac count, at which he will undertake to enlighten the voters on the merits of the code law. He announced Tuesday morning that he will ppeak at O'Neil on Sep tember 2S, during the Holt county fair; at Ainsworth on the 29th and at Valentine on the 30th. All these meetings will be in the afternoon. He air has an engagement at Cen tral Cl'.y on Saturday morning of this week, during the full festival. "I have made my own dates at these places," Mr. McKelvie said in response to a question. "The Invi tations were received direct from the different communities and I am go ing out upon my own initiative, in my own way and at my own expanse to give the people the facts regard ing their state government. 'I wish to say that there is com plete harmony and co-operation be tween the republican state commit tee and mj'self. i Would Enlighten-Voters "My purpose is to clarify in the minds of the people the isfues which have been raised in the campaign and present to them tie facts and figures shown by the state records. We make no denial of the fact that state taxes and appropriations have increased approximately 100 per cent but it is only right and proper that the people should know what this in crease was for. "In discussing the code I shall use charts clearly indicating the form of government that Nebraska used to have and that which it has now. From these charts it will be easy for anyone to understand the differ ence." The territory where Governor Mc Kelvie is to make his series of speeches is up in the same section of the state where C. H. Randall, re publican nominee for governor, re sides. As the latter helped to put the code law through the legislature, and is making his campaign on the republican state platform which en dorses it in principle, the governor's exposition of it is intend?! primar ily to aid Randall's candidacy. Governor McKelvie said Tuesday that only oue cf the chartB he expects to use had been made up as yet. an1 that he would display it to the audi ence at North Loup on Wednesday.
