MONDAY, JUNE 27, 1921 ENFORCE THE LAW. During the present summer a number of nct-idents have occurred on the streets uf (‘h=iriottctown and on the roads throughout the province. No doubt one cause of the increase in accidents is due to the increase in travel; there are more automobiles and more carriages on our roads today than ever before and as long as horses and men reta-in their horse and` their human peculiarities. a_ccident.s may be e.xpct:teti. But unquestion- tsbly most of the accidents are due to wanton disregard of our traffic regulations while street ac- cidents to children are very oitcn' caused .by the children's own care- lessness. Our traffic regulations are open- ly and even defiantly disregarded even before the eyes of the police and w~`hiie this is so actzitlt-nts must necessarily be expected. All vehi- cular traffic is supposed. according. Ilo -the regulations, to take one side of the street while proceeding in one direction and on the other s-ide when going in the opposite direction. How is this regulation observed? Teams with iloads, dray- men, carts, carriages, automobiles take the middle or the wrong side of the street indiscriminately; they cut diagonally across corners anti not one of -the offenders is evcn warned by -the police, Only oc- casionally does the driver of an automobile or carriage indicate b_v an outstretched ‘hand the direction he purposes taking on turning at' corner and only occasionally also does the driver of an nut.: signal ' his approach at a crossing. Besides this far too tnany autos are driven along the streets “-t a speed which takes no account of danger to 'rests upon the police and the police magistrate. it is the duty of thc former to pronvptly report every violation of la\v tha-t comes within their observation and it is the duly' uf the latter to prescribe legal and adequate punisluiienit.

While this is regrettable. and very hard on our -fishertticn, It is not an untnitigated evil. One of the, I causes for the low prices abroad 'was the fact that mt|.:h of last! i year's stock had been carried over. and dealers naturally wanted to realize on ithis before adding more stock. There has been an over supply and consequently the de- mand fell off. The short crop this year will help to restore the -bal- ance and ibetter resulits will be looked .for next season, Besldesl this new markets will be opened in Europe which have been closed! because of the war. lPresent indications are that what I has been lost -through shortage ini the lobster business will be made up in quantity-at least in mackerel.
