SOUTHERN
MOTORMEN
CALL ISSUED FOR MEETING AT
JACKSONVILLE ON TENTH OF
THIS MONTH.

A call has been issued to southern
motormen for a meeting at Jackson
vile, Florida. April 10th, which is the
second day of the Atlantic-Pablo Beach
races which will be conducted by the
Jacksonville Automobile and Motor
Boat Club. The purpose of the meet
ing is to discuss southern motoring
matters and good roads with a view
of forming a strong southern body
which will work for the better prog
ress of motoring in the southland and
TO organize a crusade for better roads.
One of the important things to be
discussed is the talked of main trunk
line from Richmond TO Jacksonville.
II is the ardent wish of all automobil-
lists that a good road be built enabling
northerners and southeTneTs to use il
in summer and winter. The Savannah
Automobile Club has already COM
menced planning for the building OF a
road from Savannah to Jacksonville,
and if the Florida people build the
talked of road from Jacksonville TO
Miami. over 400 miles in length. the
day NAV be nearer to US than it is
thought it is when the automobilist
can drive from New York City TO
Miami.
II is thought that a purely southern
organization can do more for local
and state interests than a national or
ganization can which up to this time
has more or less neglected southern
and western matters.
