CODE FOR CHAUFFEURs
Universal Language for Use of Auto
Owners Suggested by
French Paper.

A French publication suggests that
great service might be rendered the cause
Of automobilism by the forulation OF
universal language Of the sport and past
time, or rather a code of the expressions
most frequently used in automobiling, says
the Horseless Age, and congress under
the auspices of the Automobile club of
France is recommended to provide ways
and means for putting the project of for
mufating such a code into effect. The
idea is to derive expressions for describ-
ing the features of a car and the troubles
and arrangements to which it is liable,
the terms to be selected from the most
suitable expressions in the leading Euro
pean languages and to be modified to suit
the requirements of universal use.
One of the important advantages Of such
a codified system of universal expressions
would be the manner In which it would
facilitate international automobile touring,
which is rapidly extending in Europe; at
least this advantage is expected by the
originators of the idea. 1t is questionable,
deem it worth while either to learn the
code or to carry and consult book con-
tanning it, much Of the conversation
necessary in touring does not relate to the
automobile at all. An international auto
mobile dictionary, compiled with the ap-
prevail of the leading national automobile
clubs would serve a practical purpose, in
asmuch as it would tend to check the
looseness of expression now prevailing,
and definitely establish the meaning Of
different terms which are now used in
varying senses. It Is somewhat doubtful
however, whether the time has come for
of terms is still being added to very rap
