public in -vestment in the roads. Its work makes
for the safety of yourself and your family.
Won't you do your part in this movement to
reduce accident on the highways, and encourage.
your friends to do the same?
Do •not fall into the temptation of speeding,
because the road ahead is clear. Remember that
exceg'sive speed is one of the greatest agents of
destruction of some roads; While reminding
Motorists that -the traffic patrol will do its full duty
in enforcing the law, the Government -urges the
,co-operation of motorists in refraining from ex-
cessive Speed. • Each motorist is interested in road
• protection because each must contribute. to road
maintenance.

ARE RADIO LOTTERIES
PASSING?
(Radio Engineer)
There has been considerable ap-
prehension felt among the owners of
pe larger brtiadeasting stations be-
cause of the extensive use oft the lot-
tery as a radio advertising scheme.
It was feared that this would bring
down an unwelcome government re-
gulation and .censorship of all radio
advertising.
• Th'e more optimistic broadcasters
had predicted howe-ver, that the criti-
cisms •of the general radio public
would be more. effective in curbing
the lottery evil and would be a much
more aeceptable • method. This ,pre-
diction has been justified in a number
of instances, particularly by the radio -
public in the vicinity of Chicago. The
onsuccessfel efforts of a • popular
,broadcaster in that city to. give away
some $15,000 worth of prizes as an
advertising stunt, have proved that
some • radio audiences at least, have
recovered from "the something for
nothing" fever, In this particular in -
instance, there was such a poor re-
sponse from, the fans that not even
all of the prizes were 'distributed..
Stations in other localities are re-
porting a much better reponse to
their advertising efforts however, and
the general rejection of the radio lot-
tery is still a thing to be hoped for.

Radio Orchestra Leader Buys
Whistle For Traffic Cop
Patrolman Kelly of the Pittsburgh'
police force is now directing traffic
with a whistle of unimpeachable mu-
sical tones. The beautiful clarion
notes that sweeten the sounds of traf-
fic at 7th and Liberty enemies, Pitts-
burgh, proceed froth a 'whistle pre-
sented to the cornerman by Victor
Saudek, leader of the Little :Sym-
phony Orchestr5 and musical director
ttt KDKA.
Kellk's corner is quite near• con-
ductor Satidele's studio'—far too near
it was—when Kelly had the old Whis-
tle. 'The tonesethat reachad Mr. Sau-
d.ek's studio were so dismal that the
conductor found it impossible to
concentrate on the masterpieces of
Debussy and Bach. Matters became
seribus. Mr. Saudek went out and
had a talk with Kelly. The result
was a new whistle—the best that
money cotild buy—for Kelly.
Later reports have it thee the idea
is rapidly spreading and that conduc-
tor paudek has had numerous in-
quiries since he donated the now fa-
mous whistle:
