Raleigh, July 9—To blow or not to blow automobile horns, especially at night, is already becoming a contro versial question among various news papers over the State with the result that State officialdom here is begin ning to show some interest in the question. The anti-horn blowers would prohibit the use of automobile horns at night at least, and maintain that automobile operators would drive more carefully if they were deprived of horns entirely. They point to the fact several European countries have already prohibited the sounding of motor horns from dusk to dawn with the result that it is possible to relax and sleep in those countries without being jerked out of peaceful slumber by the raucus blast from a motor horn. The horn blowers, however, main tain that the automobile horn is very essential to highway safety, especially in the United States with its millions of Automobiles, paved highways, high speed cars and trucks and its traffic congestion. They maintain that traf fic accidents would increase rather than decrease if the use of motor horns should be prohibited. , Within the past few days the Ra leigh News and Observer and The Hickory Daily Record have had edi torials dealing with the automobile horn, protesting especially against the heavy-thumbed drivers who lean on their horns for blocks at a time appa rently just to hear them blow and suggesting that some effort should be made to reduce the use of horns. They called attention to the fact that several European countries limit the use of automobile horns and prohibit their use from dusk to dawn. "This question of limiting the use of automobile horns is a new one to me, and without knowing more about the experiments along this line in other countries I am not prepared to express an opinion on the question,” said I. P. Fulk. the new director of highway safety of the Department of Revenue. “The question is an inter esting one. however, and I am going to get all the information I can on the results of experiments conducted in other countries, since there must be some merit in the arguments of the anti horn blowers.” Captain Charles D. Farmer, com mander of the State Highway Patrol was inclined to side with the anti horn blowers and readily agree that many motorists use their horn but tons much more than is actually nec essary. But he was not ready to ad vocate the junking of all horns. “There is no doubt that many car drivers use their horns much more than they really need to and thus cause a lot of noise that could be eliminated,” Captain Farmer said. “The better drivers us.e their .horns only when signalling to pass cars or trucks ahead of them or to warn oth er cars or pedestrians when approach ing an intersection. But there is less excuse for using horns at night tha?f at ay other time, since the headlights of cars give plenty of warning when approaching intersections. So while automobile horns are undoubtedly necessary automotive equiprafnt, they should be used a great deal less than they are especially at night.” Most of the noise made by automo bile horns at night is made by speed fiends and smart-alecs who glue their thumbs to the horn buttons either be cause they want to attract attention or want to disturb other people, Cap tain Farmer said. There are “horno maniacs” —'mostly high school or col lege boys —who like to adorn their cars with five or six different varieties of horns and see how much noise they can make. Farmer agreed. He also agreed that these “hornomaniacs” should be exterminated. “The automobile horn is a very necessary part of a car and is essen tial to safe driving, especially here in North Carolina where we have almost iialf a million automobiles on the From "Down Under” Hr ■ 3. -v Ik < iIBkJHI Hi sLM - m /v-i WH H J . .a * V Premier end Mrs. Ly«n» Joseph A.

Har ris, director of the motor vehicle divi sion of the Department of Revenue. “They can get along in most European countries without sounding then horns at night, or even in the day time, because they have so few mot or vehicles. The ones they have are for the most part small and of low speeds. “But over in this country, the situ ation is very different, with the mil lions of high-speed cars and our traf fic congestion. I admit_ of course, that some drivers are inclined to use their horns too much and cause unne cessary noise and confusion. But I think that every car should be equip ped with a good horn and should be used in pasing other cars and in ap proaching intersections.” 5 Projects Under PWA Are Passed (Continued from Page One.) funds and about $3,000,000 in local funds for improvements of sanitary facilities in practically every} county have been filed with him.

Quite a number of the directors of the A. and N. C., 72 per cent of whose stock is owned by the State of North Carolina, are in favor of independent operation of the road by the officers andd irectors and believe that it can earn more for the State and the other stockholders than if leased.

House’s Vote Not Highly Applauded (Continued from Page One.) press, one way or another (if careful observers may judge). The people had no idea they were ‘bribed.’’ What the people did know was that their representatives feared an invasion on private property holdings, and decid ed to take a stand “before it was too late.” TO ACHIEVE WHAT? In an evolutionary period, the mass of people cannot define exactly what it desires. Larger benefits from what is pro duced, greater security, "control of wealth” so that one group cannot do minate —it was ever thus that peo ple desired, through history. Slowly, as science and democracy have made their way. man approaches the goal. Generations hence, our de scendants will look back and see how great was the distance the present age still had to trudge. People are weary, they n 0 longer trust the necessarily slow and honest trudging ahead of the economic and social pathfinders. Such men, often ridiculed and derided, sometimes even exterminated by reactionary forces, have no soothsaying words. They only too surely see the tangled brush, the fitful storms, the ferocious beasts, of the untrodden forest. 1g47 Edwin J. Houston, famed Phil adelphia electrical engineer, born at Alexandria. Va.
