Repeated Violations Alleged.


1t is no reflection on the vigilance of the
local police that the speed law is broken
every day. To round up all its violators
would take force of bicycle men as large
in itself as the entire force assigned to
the protection of life and property in a
city as large as Washington. The country
roads would have to be as carefully pa
trolled as Chicago street on a busy night
Every machine, except those running at a
snails pace, would have to be timed for
the speed of an automobile Is more decep-
tive than cats eye. When the driver
thinks he is having little jog of twelve
miles an hour he is in reality making
about eighteen, and when he puts on high
speed and thinks he can't be going along
at slower gait than fifty or sixty miles
an hour, he is clipping off about forty-dve.
With speedway at their disposal auto
mobilists figure that there would be fewer
violations of the law and less danger on
the public roads. Owners of cars who have
a tendency to sprint could spend their time
on the course where the only chance of ac-
cident would be to themselves. Fast driy-
ing could be confined almost altogether to
the speedway, and the result would be
equally as advantageous to the public and
police as to automobiles themselves
The proposition is neither new nor novel
New York has a speedway for automobiles
over twenty miles long. 1t is located in
the vicinity of Garden City and Mineola,
Long Island and was recently the scene
of the race for the Vanderbilt cup On GER
tain portions of the road automobiles are
allowed to send their cars along as fast as
they please, and there is no lurking fear
that they will be confronted with q heavy
fine at the end of their spin. Accidents
have been comparatively few, considering
the nature of the sport and the course has
had the tendency of preventing speeding on
public highways where regular traffic is
carried on.
Auto Owners Anxious.
There are hundreds of Automobiles In
Washington who would hail a speedway
Many owners of cars having speed of
sixty or more miles an hour would welcome
a chance to speed their machines without
fear of police interference or the probability
of meeting with an accident. Under the
present arrangement they can only speed
their machines at the imminent peril of ar
rest or danger of collision. The conse-
quence is that while there is comparatively
little speeding In or about the city. the ten
dency of most automobiles is to drive their
cars anywhere from eight to ten miles in
excess of the limit.
With Its asphalted streets and macadem-
ICED suburban roads Washington Is an ideal
city for the sport to be enjoyed In its best
form. Its increase in popularity In the past
Two years here has been remarkable. In

Patrolled by Guards.

There are many suggestions in connec-
ton with the scheme, but among those
regarded as the most plausible is one to
have the speedway patrolIed by guards
whose duty 1T should be to keep pedestri
ans from trespassing on the course and
to keep 1t free from obstacles of all kinds.
Remuneration for the guards could be OBJ
tained, 1t is said, by subscriptions from
were under supervision of the recently Or
ganized Automobile Club the expense
could be paid from the funds of the club
itself. In this event an admission could
be charged all persons who wish to speed
their cars on the road.
The argument is advanced that there
could be no general objection to the pro-
1ect. 1T would interfere in no way with
the public. and the expense of maintaining
lists. 1t is also argued that a speedway
has been provided gratuitously for the
owners of fast horses, and it seems to be
within the bounds of fairness to make a
similar provision for the automoblists
Under the present laws the speed limit
is twelve miles an hour in the city and
fifteen miles an hour in the country. Per-
sons unaccustomed to automobiles can
hardly appreciate what this means to q
with his hand on clutch which, if pushed
forward a bit, would send him along at the
rate of fifty or sixty miles an hour. To
say that IT is tantalizing would be to ex-
press it in the mildest terms There is
always the irresistible desire to send the
car along at rafting clip, and ninety-nine
times out of a hundred the longing will
take practical shape If the roads clear
and policemen are conspicuous by their
al

Speedway Desirable,

The pro 'ect is in line with the growing
desire of automobiles in Washington to
have place where they can speed their
machines without fear of an irate police
man pursuing in their wake There is no
place In or about the city where this can
be done without transgressing the law
ana the way of the transgressor 1t is con-
coded, If he be violater of the speed law,

ofer the suggestion that the government
turn over to their use a road about two
miles long and of average width One Of
the propositions is to have an entrance and

entrance by another avenue but should
not be allowed to go back to the starting

SUBURBAN SPEEDWAY
Automobile Owners Discuss

FOR MACHINES ONLY
GROWING DESIRE FOR PLACE TO
SPEED FREELY.
Members of Automobile Club Have
Project Under Consideration-Com-
missioner Vests Views.

Since the organization of an automobile
club in Washington there has been some
consideration given to the proposition of
establishing a speedway In the suburbs for
the sole use of the horseless vehicle. The
project was first suggested as a bare pos
sibiity, but 1t seems to have struck a re-
sponsive chord among Automobiles and
has gained in favor to such an extent that
many patrons of the sport are serious in
advocating it. Indeed 1t is even possible
that an effort will be made in the near
future to carry the proposition into effect
by petitioning the authorities to reserve
road in an outlying section of the city for
the exclusive patronage of automobiles.
Commissioner West was asked today
whether the District authorities had been
approached by the persons interested in
the project with view of obtaining their
aid to have speedway constructed. He
said the matter was not within the juris-
dction of the Commissioners as the roads
suitable for such an undertaking are gov
eminent reservations.
IF an appeal is made" he added, 1T
would have TO be made to Col. Bromwell.
superintendent of public buildings and
grounds. Personally, however, / would like
very much to see the District have a road
reserved for the use of automobiles The
plan as l understand it Is to have bou-

posed to have the road take q southeast

junction of Rhode Island avenue and the
District line, making a stretch of about
Twelve miles in all. This proposition is
very elaborate and it will probably take a
long time before il will ever he realized

THE WORRIED WOMEN.

They say men must work and
women must weep; but alas, in
this too busy world women often
have to work and weep at the
same time. G'heir HOLIDAYS are
too few and their work heavy
and monotonous. 1t makes them
nervous and irritable. The de-
pressed and worried woman loses
her appetite and grows thin and
feeble. Once in a while she has
spells of palpitation and has to
lie up for a day or two. If some
disease like influenza or malarial
fever happens to prevail she is
almost certain to have an attack
of it, and that often paves the
way for chronic troubles of the
throat, lungs and other organs;
and there is no saying what the
end may be. Let the tired and
overladen woman rest as much
as possible; and, above all, place
at her command bottle of
