On This Day | Editorial Despair

Guess maybe we are a reformer at heart . . . any way it makes us mad to see drivers foul up traffic thru willfulness or selfishness or just thru ignorance and bad manners . . . actually driving habits are doing more to create Minot’s traffic problem than anything else . . . but they won’t correct themselves any more than most poor regulations or carelessness in enforcement . . . traffic is backing up for blocks on the thru streets where it is supposed to be able to get out of the way . . .
