The joint committee HAVING IN

the automobile parade to be given in
the Elks' convention week next Julv.
met yesterday with G.. S. Burgess.
chairman of the Elks' executive COM
mittee. says the Detroit Free Press.
The statement of Chairman Gillespie
that there would be twenty miles of
autos in the parade was endorsed by
all present.
1T was difficult at first blush to re-
alize what this means. For illustra-
ton, let 1t be stated that the start is
to be made from the Boulevard and
Woodward avenue. In order TO let
every driver see the parade, and that
Is going to be one of the plans adhered
to, the first car i'm the parade will have
to be driven to Crosse Pointe before
turning for the counter-march, so that
the last auto i'm line may be given an
opportunity of passing the others on
the return.
Greatest in Motor History
That the automobile parade will be
the greatest ever held I'm America is
an assured fact Previously the larg-
est number of cars I'm n parade was
something like 1882, but In the De-
troit tournout there will be more than
1000. 1t will be a sight worth coming
miles to see and will undoubtedly
keep every visitor in Detroit that the
beautiful spectacle may be witnessed.
1t will be hot rival of the Elks' pa
rade itself.
There will be nothing to mar the al
most endless procession. The same
roping plan to be used on the day of
the elks' parade will he left intact, the
police patrol will he the same and the
ID. u. r. has given assurance that its
cars will not break through the line
Of march.
This will afford an opportunity OF
auto drills and other novel
stunts never before attempted.
1t is expected that many beautiful
and original productions in decora-
tons will he displayed. and this is
going to tax local talent and labor to
It's utmost. Decorators from abroad
will be drawn to Detroit to take care

cars but suggesting new

upwards of 400 voters have been

Is asserted these voters are not duly
registered. At the same time, Attor-
ney Caskie takes the ground that there
is no way provided by law to purge
the books, claiming the only thing
is to challenge the new voters on cleo
ton day, and thus lay the ground
for contest, should the "wets' sue
