SAFETY BOARD
ISSUES WARNING
Asks Parents to Co-operate In
Effort To Cut Down
Accidents
With the arrival of numnicr day*
the commissioners of public safety
of Greater Detroit are sending out
appeals to mothers and fathers to
assiit them in minimizing street ac
cident*.
The appeal, In part, follows:
The number of accidents eai h year
Is appalling, and many of the vic
tims are children. The children of
the rlty of Detroit ar<- your respon
««tDility and are your most ureclous
possession. You are asked do hear
your share In teaching them the way
to lie safe upon our streets,
Th* Streets are the r , r o P©''ty nt
the public But the roadway Is not
a playground for children
The roadway Is a dangerous place
to roller skate
Young and old, but children especi
ally. should be warned repeatedly
not to • Toms Immediately behind a
atreet car Wait until your view to
the rltylii la (dear.
Impress upon your children that
caution la not cowardice. Th>- child
takes dangerous and unnecessary
chances bn luse he fears the <ry of
"coward."
No thoughtless child, and no child
of six years or less, Is safe on the
streets alone. The child who is
watching out to save others from
danger Is unconsciously taking care
of bis or her own safety.
If every boy from 10 to 16 years
of age will constitute himself a
•'Safety Scout," ws* shall see a
diminution of street accident*.
A “Safety Scout" who does his
duty will allow no little child to
cress a street alone in his vlclnlt)
The “Safety Scout" will not plsy ball
In the street, even though he may
feel that he can safely do so.
Teach the children how to use the
streets.
Always and at all times set a safe
ly example that the children may
follow.
You nnd your children are the
Mtrongeat allies the "Safety flraf
movement has. we therefore ask
your thorough co-operation in this
educational work Will you taka
your ahnra?

BOOSTERS PLEDGE
TO PROMOTE
WEST DETROIT
Seventy-eight of Detroit's well
known htmlnes* men met at the first
monthly noonday luncheon of the
West Detroit Development associa
tion. held in the Hotel Toiler, Fri
day, to diHcuss plans for the Immedi
ate development of the section be
tween Michigon ave. to the Detroit
river, west of Woodward ave.
A fund of nearly $2,000 was pledg
ed by Individuals to take rare of the
immediate expenses of the assocla
tion and a tax of $1 per acre was
decided upon to raise funds auftl
dent to place the advantages of the
west side before the public by
newspaper announcements. The
work of collecting the pledged
amounts has been placed In the
hands of a competent committee
composed of Messrs. Kelly, Welch.
Power, Fairchild and Flory.
In a masterful address T. H.
Welch brought home the deplorable
condition of affairs regarding the
housing situation and he suggested
that one of the first moves of the
association be to do all in its power
to aid in bettering conditions
Other speakers were Cecil O. Me-
Collom, T. W Reach. RenJ. Hughes,
R A. Horger, F. A. Vanerstrom, and
Arthur Pleasum.
A constitution and by-laws draft
ed by Messrs. Dunham and Polk
were read and accepted.
t is planned to Interest the manu
facturers and business men in the
downriver district In the plans of
the association and an Invitation has
been Issued to them to become mem
bers. Anyone Interested In the de
velopment of the west side Is lldgi
hle to Join the association. Meet-
Inyr will be held twice each month
nnd a noonday luncheon once each
month

I Manufacturers of “King-8”
Create Position of Com
mercial Manager
j
j At a banquet tendered to the die
! trlct sales managers of the King 1
{ Motor Car Cos., In the I>etrolt Ath J
i letic club, President Artemas Ward. •
j Jr., announced the creation of anew ,
position and the addition of a val
uable man to tbe King executive!
personnel.
(«. J. Bates, for the past 10 years j
prominently identified with the tire ,
business, relinquishes a position j
with the Firestone Tire ft Rubber:
Cos. to become commercial manager. '
Manager R. P. Bishop stated that !
Mr. Bates would he a valuable addi- j
tlon to the King family; that the
merchandizing department of the
factory would be able to launch on
expansion plans which have been un- i
der consideration for some time.
"The growth of the company has
| been conservative," Mr. Ward said,
‘ In making the announcement that
Mr. Hates had Joined the King or
ganization “We have not gone Into
; the field with overproduction We i
have known our limit, our product
: has been moved without sales re
sistance. Today our position in the
automobile field is unique nnd envi
able. The King's expansion will be
conservative —we will always In
crease nur production gradually 1
would rather have our organization
manufacture 3,000 or 4.000 cars a
year and do It right, than to build
10,000 In a haphazard manufacturing J
way to be merchandised with plans
not consistent with our business pol- .
I icy.
"In adding Mr. Rates to our or
ganization, we will be able to fur
ther enhance the merchandising of
the King He will have supervision
of the sales and advertising depart- j
1 ments and with the co-operation of
the heads of these departments will
direct their policies. His wide ac
quaintanceship with the automobile j
dealers throughout the Fnited States
acquired during his service with the J
Firestone Tire & Rubber Cos. and
with the Diamond Rubber Cos. makes
him particularly adaptable to his
new position."

was quiet and weak In the
.trading Saturday. Liverpool had the
1 usual decline and the general tone
.was weak.
The trouble with wheat la that
'stocks oT old grain are pressing on
the market and buyers are acaron.
This condition is made weaker by
the early movement of new wheat In
creasing the weight the bulls are
forced To carry. Demand la entirely
inadequate and stocks are not being
.reduced fast enough to encourage
buying Bulla are discouraged and
bears are considered a little reckless
In selling on this level. Conservative
dealers think the bears are rocking
the boat to a dangerous angle and aro
apt to be badly caught when they
try to buy back their stuff.
I The foreign situation offers no
help. The market on the other side
is weak and dealers are doing all in
their power to keep it so. The only
hope is that they may consider fu
tures low enough to buy. so as to
secure a supply when the present
stocks are about exhausted. Cash
wheat In Detroit la quiet and easy.
Mills are not buying and there is no
alilpping demand. Receipts are small
because farmers are not satisfied with
prices.
