THE HIT AND RUN MENACE It is hardly necessary to say that every effort should he made to apprehend motorists who flee from the scene of an accident leaving a victim, helpless in the road. Such a person offends all sense of decency and every dic tate of civilization. One appreciates that for a moment a motorist might he panic-stricken when he realizes he has struck down a fellow -being. But he who yields to fear and flees the scene convicts himself of cowardice. But he, who act ;ated only by cunning, leaves a human being in dis tress, is worse than a coward. An appeal to manhood where there is no manhood utile. So long as there is a possibility of escaping the 11uences of carelessness there will be those who will attempt it. The onlv effective check against the hit-and-run driver is increased efficiency of the police in ferreting out such offenders and a severity of the courts that will make an attempted escape a greater hazard than stopping after an accident to render assistance to the injured an face the conseque: people who are actuated by fear make the ct nces of abandoning a victim a cause for greater fear. Mai > the cunning that their greater advantage lies in admitting responsibility for the accident if the fault is theirs. .And the public can help abolish the hit-and-run driver bv letting the motorist know that should he stop r.e will not become the victim of mob violence.
