Mr. Justice Bennett has been moved to say in ti London Court that owners of motor curs are th. most selfish individuals who ever walked. This is both true and untrue, writes Mr. Arthur Mee. It is not true that there exists a special b’.eed of selfish people, all of whom can afford to buy land run a ear. What, is true is that selfishness is not uncommon, and that, the ownership of a ear reveals a selfish nature as few other tilings do. If we observe pedestrians wo may often find them selfish m using the roads as. if there were no other people on them. Put the same people on bicycles u.d they become a nuisance and a danger. Put them in cars and they become a terrible danger. It appears that wheels reveal the nature of the person who revolves them.
