SEPTEMBEK 6, 1913 OBJECT LESSON IN CO-OPERATION In "in last ifsue we wrote of the quality! ,,.iniiuinity enileavor which -Ocean City that the progress ami uccomplislwieots of the ■-..I two yearn — the most remarkable in the hi.-t*»,y of 'he resort — would l» nothiitK in pmnurinon with what might have l>een accomJuul there been more of the co-opern-Tn>th "of individuals anil civic organizations. The fact is so well recognize.! that none fi.uM accuse us of egotism, when we say that; the physical aiivantages of Ocean City have ; ,„i rijiull on the coast, if therefore means r.iuUI l"' found to foster closer unity to oourdinute and focalize the vast amount of civic mide and energy now dissipated in petty ri-, ; ' valry and maintaining the the spirit of fac- , iMii.isnl, nothing could prevent Uic progress of tiro cming. two years from being quadruple ttiut of the past two years. Within the past few days however, we have had a very striking object lesson of the value of co-op. ation which should prove fruitful of remits far beyond the immediate. The ol.i ct lesson came in the closing scenes of the fiodncial drive for the Hotel Flanders. Never I" ore. not even in the first campaign] launched, has the city witnessed so fine an ex- j ample of united efforts towards a worthy goal. j Hay after day men have sacrificed their pri- j vote businesses and interests, and have devoted liberally of their time and energies to one
ingle objective. Ami this has l>een done witli■mt hope of reward, or any remuneration bevo...i their share of the prttfits in proportion to the .mount of their investment. All minor differences of opinion, old feuds and enin.it ;os were forgotten, and the leading spirits of the community were all possessed with one desire, that of carrying the campaign - to a triumphant conclusion. The' goal will tie reached, simply because of •united effort - To lie frank we, together with many another were haunted with grave fears. Not that we • liouiiten tiie will; but we feared there was no. way. All had responded generously durinjf' the first campaign, and the ambunt of stock sold will remain for long a record for a resort of our size, wealth and population. Co-operation among the teams however infected the entire community. This is tho spirit we must retain. Now that we have learned how It can be done, we .must apply the same principles and the sane psychology j to all public movements. If we do not, then the reproach will 1* overwhelming. At will be said of us that the only objective upon which we can lie united is that which promises large monetary gains. It will lie said that we have commercialized all the finer principles of civic life and en.leavor beyond hope of reilemption. But if upon future occasion we throw the same degree of enthu- , riasin into a public movement, and be as ready to recognize the worth and the need of the other follow, the future in assured. Co-opera-U'.i. cunn.it exist apart from a just appreciation of the other fellows merits, and claims to 1_] LIGHTS AND THE LAW . AutoniobiUats, resident and visitors to this resort during the past week discovered two
I important fact*. They discovered that the law has something very specific to say about lights i u*ed on automobiles, and that the State Mo- < y Vehic'e Department is determined to ri- < gidly enforce the law. , '• They are prompted this decision for pure- ; _ ly humanitarian reasons. Almost every second i ] person has a stock of set opinions concerning . - the law and law officials. Of course we know (at least we are bild frequently enough)' all w | al,°ut official corruption and graft, and how i laws are made to benefit certain corporations; i j notwithstanding we reiterated that enforcing I y ! the law appertaining to automobile lights andji lenses, the Motor Vehicle Department .is per- ( forming n real service to the public, and are e therefore deserving of tiie highest commenda- i e tnm and all proper support. Moreover those I „ who benefit most, are those who own and use 1 _ ' motor vehicles. This in fact is tiie supreme function of tho 1 s law, to protect those who will not protect ' themselves from the consequences of their' I b fiersonal recklessness. i t| It is passing strange what fearful risks to ' < life and limb, both autoists and pedestrians, ^ . will run if by so doing they can save a tlpllar. I It is reported upon the authority of the de- ' partment- that 35 perS.. out of every one hundred killed in auto accidents, came to their death directly or indirectly through imperfect ; j liffhts on their machines, or the machines in ' : ^ which they rode. This in itself is sufficient- warrant and jusp t'fication for any action within reason that' p j 'he Department may take to remedy the evil j j 'and reduce the number of futilities. | There was a day when stringent restrics ; 'i|in4»were not necessary'. Motor vehicles in ' . . comparison with the population were so far n in the minority that there was no cause or j reason for stringent legislation. That day is I | no. more. With the statement given upon repu table authority, that in large centers of populution there is one car for every ten persons ' p the day has passed. Nor can we expect that
the law will relax; rather stricter legislation, 1 greater restraints and a far more rigid and 1 n impartial enforcement of the law will be ah- :1 solute!? imperative. The death toll annually!1 s from automobile acci'twd# is appalling, and j ' K in a staggering lurge numlier of cases the tic- ' '■ ,1 ci.lents has been definitely traced to a wilful ] ! n and wanton disregard for the law on the part 1 1 of some person involved. Penalties are lie-i1 f 'liming heavier. ! ' There is a psychology behind the phenor nidna of speeding which is vastly interesting ' e un.l obtruse. It has been suggested indeed by ' 0 eminent scientists that there is a pathological ' ^ j background to s peeling, and that the craze k indicates n mental condition equivalent to a derangement. The same authorities advocate that persons found guilty of repeated offences 1 should be placed in hpuses of correction for - 10 medicinal treatment just as other forms of ,e mental defection are treated. , ■ y Be that as it may it is evident that still , ; y greater restrictions and restraints must lie ' ' enforced upon autoists to protect them against . r. themselves, and protect pedestrians, y One of the most urgent needs however Is j lt an uniform system of legislation governing, 11 motor vehicle traffic. Far too great a disie purity exists between the laws of one State and another. In the State of New Jersey, an -p applicant for drivers license must shout some j j. knowledge of the laws of the State governing ly nwitor traffic, and must prove himself or her,a self capable of handling a car properly. This is a wise precaution. There are States however in which no such, l„ tests are demanded. An applicant may secure a license even by mail, the authorities utterly unable to determine whether the person is sane or hopelessly insane. jK Greater uniformity between the legislation ! of the different States would lie desirable in. uiinng tne past wees mscovereo two - • 1 ;
' a multitude of directions; but none present so I i great a need and urgency than the law gov- - crning traffic. Thousands of accidents occur ■ annually, through Ignorance of tiie laws governing different States, — Happil A however this 1 not he far distant when tiie Spates confederate f in the cstldishment of an uniform and federal 1 .• ■; -tern of traffic laws and regulations. I Evidence of this may be found jn the new 1 t regulations ' relative to headlights. The reg- ; ulutioris enforced in the State of New Jersey t have been adopted by nine other States, which I include Connecticut, Maine. Maryland, Mass- . achu.-etts. New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, P Pennsylvania and Vermont The regulations - the result, of a conference of Motor Ve- . » Administrator^, representing the said ; ten States. • ,tlie law when brought before the court chargt ed with faffing to comply. So mnch publicity r | been given to the new 'regulations through the medium of the press, that to plead such i defence aggravates the offence. - , ca*e however that by some mischance all , ■ previous notices have escaped the eyes of one | . «f our readers, through the courtesy of Mr. .
