To get the Municipality for, the information Republic and it reads as follows: rid of soldiery must be done by our- without which we could not answer! the Tramway Company. Nobody takes the trouble to give us prepared statements so we are obliged to make application every time a matter arises which requires facts in the possession of government departments.

Evidently, the Tramway does not understand the plain meaning of the Muni, ipal Ordinances. The Municipal ity does not assume liability of the dri- vers regardless of the facts in the case. When an accident occurs the driver is arrested, an inquiry is held to ascertain the cause of the accident and fix the responsibility. If it is found that the driver is at fault, then fines and punish ments are regulated in accordance with Municipal Ordinances.

For the benefit of our contemporary, we give a translation of the Ordin- ances in question.

The atticles eleventh and twelveth of the General Traffic Penalty Regula tions passed by the Executive Council of the Municipal Commissioners at its forty-third regular session August twenty-third, 1921, and consequently proclaimed to be effective August thirtieth of the sanie year provides the following;

"Driver or drivers when on duties, with bead and tail lights lighted, whistles or bells sounded, and bas already observed the second clause of the 8th article, and the second clause of the 9th article, or any part of the

second clause of the 9th article of the

same regulation, if the driver or drivers accidentally killed or injured person or persons such driver or

drivers shall be arrested and handed

over to the Department of Public Safety for discriminative treatment of

the case.

"(A) If the person or persons injured arising from the accident. were deformed, limbs amputated in any way, the driver or drivers must reimburse to such person or persons one hundred dollars or more as medical fees. (B) If the person or persons injured were deformed or limbs amputated arising from the accident, the driver or drivers besides paying the indemnity as provided in (A), 011 extra amount of three hundred dollars must be compensated to the person or persons injured; and the driver or drivers shall be suspended for the period of three

years.

Persons killed or injured were compensated as ordered by the Local Court as follows:

Total

To be exact, before the Tramway Company's Motor Bus had this which was due entirely to reckless accident of September 25th 1921, driving, the Department of Public Utilities had repeatedly served notice on the Tramway Company to have its drivers examined and license in accordance with Municipal Regula- tions. The Tramway Company comply with the orders of the Govern ignored there notices and failed to ment. Its contention was that it was not in a position to comply because it had an Agreement made with the former Municipal au- thorities. On examination of this Utilities found nothing in it to warrant Agreement, the Department of Public the claim that drivers of Tramway buses were exempt from examination or need not obtain licences. While negotiations were going on over this controversy, the fateful accident above referred to took place. The Department of Public Utilities then suspended the bus service for a period of one week and stipulated that the service could not be resumed until the drivers took out licences. This was to protect the public from further accidents and to prohibit drivers having insufficient experience from being employed by the Tramway Company. Drivers of motor cars in Canton, whether private or public cars must obtain licences and why should the Tramway Company object to a very fair condition?

When the accident occurred the

driver was arrested by the police and tried by the provincial court. After all the evidence had been submitted and every phase of the case examined and heard, the seven thousand dollars was not a fine imposed upon the Company but was compensation to the family of the person killed and to those who had been injured, and also for the repayment of the damago done to the shop.

"(C) If the person or persons killed or received injuries arising from the accident died afterwards, the driver or drivers besides paying the ndemnities and compensa. tions as provided in (A) and in (B) an extra sum of five hundred dollars must be paid to the; In foreign countries, the man would family of the deceased as funeral be charged with manslaughter and if
