From an address 'by L. H. Davies. Esq.. M.P. (later Sir Louis Davies) at the Market Hall, Chur- loftctown, Jan. 22, 1888. on the subject of communication with the mainland as guaranteed by the terms of Confederation:

Excess speed was a factor in many of the fatalities but excess speed is a relative thing. What is reasonable on a clear straight highway may well be dangerously fast driving. in a built up area with chil- dren playing nearby and people using the highway as a footpath.

There is no simple solution to the in- creasing number of deaths caused by the automobilc. An improved standard of care and skill by drivers would do much.

SENATOR GRANTS LETTER

Sir. - During my life-time I was under the impression that we were living in a democratic coun- tl'i'. but after reading the letter in your Public Forum over the signa- ture of Senator Grant. I am in considerable doubt whether it is so as Senator Grant's letter certain- lv demonstrates that he thinks that we are dominated by dictator- ship. Much more dictatorial than that of Hitler and Mussolini.

At lcast the last pair advertised that they were dictators. but the Honorable Dr. Grant waited until he got it pension in an "oi man's home" until he advertised t at in his opinion democracy is s dead issue.

For it man in his position in the Canadian Senate to make the state-
