J ay-Walker Must Be Considered, if Not Respected

SVDNEV, July 20—The fact that a pedestrian, ‘jay walks’ or crosses a street at a point other tha a regular crossing does not lessen the responsib- ility of auto drivers for his safety, Judge Crowe rules in a decision handed down Satur- day morning, in the case of Charles Bailey versus J. A.

MacNell. The evidence was that a car driven by MacNcli struck

Bailey as the latter was cross- ing Broekland street, and J. W. Maddin, K. 0., his counsel, put forward the plea of his failure to cross at a regular intersection.

F. A. ‘Hamilton, for the lPlaintiff, argued that this made no difference in law, and the court's decision upholds that contention.
