To the Editor of the "Norta-Curna Datty News."
Sir,—I heartily endorse the view held by "Humanity" that all motorcars should be obliged to draw up behind standing tramcars, I take it that, unlike the laws of the Medes and the Persians, our traffic by-laws are not ironbound, and a simple modification of these by-laws is all that is necessary.
Continued apathy on the part of the authorities to the safety and convenience of the great bulk of the public can only force on one the conclusion that in Shanghai our traffic administrators choose to cringe and grovel before the almighty plutocrat.
