A writer in "Lcslics Weekly" dealing with
this subject makes some recommendations that
are sensible and timely. Being whcclman
himself he discusses the matter in a practical
way. his suggestions growing out Of personal
experience and observation. II Is too late In The
session 10 expect any legislation on these lines
this year. but no intelligent whcclman pucs
ton the need Of legislation and the matter
should be- taken In hand bclmcs In order that
such a law as Is necessary may hc passed next
year. The present Legislature has shown Itself
friendly TO the cycling fraternity. especially in
passing the Croton Cycle Path measure: II has
also given little countcnancc Ia absurd proposals
Of regulations hostile to bicycle riders. while II
has rendered service Of value TO the community
AT large by the law enacted in reference to sign
boards. /, Is fair 10 assume. therefore, that such
laws as the whcclmcn in general desire can he
obtained, while unnecessarily restrictive meas
urcs will have small chance Of success.
The writer referred TO declares. in the first
place. that a rule Of the road" of an lron-clad
nature should be established. and policemen
should enforce II rclcntcssly. To that he adds:
