International FeIIcItations

The president of the government
board of London recently introduced
a bill into the house of commons for
enabling orders in council to be made
for the purpose of "giving effect to
any convention for facilitating the in
ternational circulation of motor cars"
This bill is a direct result of the in
ternational conference held in Paris
last month. BY the provision of this
bill orders in council will be possible
for the relief of owners of cars visiting
England from abroad from the incon-
venience of complying with the present
regulations. BY reciprocal arrange
ments cars going abroad from England
will be admitted to foreign countries,
which were represented at the inter-
national conference Under uniform
rules.
