For Cnmnnign Publicity.

Washington, June 2O.-E,ncouraged
by the success that has attended his
Legislative program up to this time.
President Taft decided to-day to make
an issue of the passage by Congress be-
fore the adjournment of the present
session of the bill providing for the
publicity of campaign contributions In
all campaign affecting Federal Offices.
The President sent for party leaders
in both the House and Senate and
told them that he had made per-
sonal pledge during the last presi-
dental campaign to do what he could

tated to add this bill to his program.

itself to those measures to which tha
party had definitely committed itsslf
In it's PLATFORM. Now that the pro-

decided to bring all of his influence
to bear in behalf of the publicity btal.
Mr. Taft took Senator Burrows. OF
Michigan, for a long automobile rids
yesterday afternoon. Mr. Burrows Ia
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Elections. When he and the President
parted it was with the understanding
that the campaign publicity bill roon

Expects Little Trouble.
The President does not anticipate
any serious trouble in getting the
bill through the House. The President

were apparently safely stored away.

Following is the complete program
for the day, and it is safe to say that
never has Los Angeles had such a
feast of sensational racing on two
wheeled machines placed before her
people as will be seen at the Coliseum
this afternoon:
The first event will be a six-mile
race for private owners, stock ma
chimes except handle-bars, with three
entries, consisting of r. Niederhauser,
f. Montgomery and George Schram.
y The second event will be four-mile
event with Kittle, Graves, Charles
Bake and Howard Schafer.
Event No. 3. a five-nile circuit, open
to all seven-horse power machines,
with Graves, Bake and Ward as the
entries.
And the last event, the 100-mile race,
with the five professional riders con-
testing, consisting of De Roster, Lin
genfelder, Whittier, Samuelson and
Mitchell. five of the greatest riders of
the world, riding at breakneck speed.
De Roster holds every worlds record
from the thirty-mile mark to the hun
dred up to this date, and it is safe to
say that the other riders will have to
ride the fences to take away from the
gritty Frenchman the titles he now
holds.
Special arrangements have been
made by Manager Kramer to post the
time of the races at the completion of
every ten miles and thus afford the
public the opportunity to know the re-
suits of the machines as the riders
progress, an innovation of which it
will be pleased.
An immense audience is assured for
the races and the program as ar
ranged win satisfy the most critical.

CALIFORNIA ATTRACTS
EASTERN TOURISTS
STUDEBAKER OFFICIAL BACK
FROM TRIP
Climatic Conditions Inviting Pertinent
Inquiries About California with
Possibility of Winter
Touring

"In view of the fact that weather
conditions in all parts of the country
except California-that is, the central
and southern portions of the state
are such that no satisfactory use of a
car is possible, so far as pleasure tour
ing is concerned, and that these con-
ditions will prevail for at least five
months to come, California will in ali
probability prove the Mecca of motor
lists from all over the United States
this winter to an extent heretofore un-
equaled."
That is the opinion of Chester N.
Weaver of the Studebaker company,
who has just returned from a months
visit throughout the east. Most of his
time was spent at the several Stude-
baker automobile factories, the Stude-
baker, Garford. the Studebaker EMF
and the Studebaker- Flanders, of which
line he is the representative.
During my visit east" said Weaver
yesterday, ST met many owners, and
with but few exceptions they made
pertinent inquiries about the conditions
in California during the winter as re-
CARDS the possibility for pleasure tours.
| found large number of them in
tensely interested in the advancement
that had been made in the good roads
campaign that has been waged out
west during the last year.
"While the present day perfection of
the automobile makes it particularly
adapted for winter uses on account Of
it's great convenience as compared to
any other mode of conveyance, when
rain, snow, sleet and mud enter into
the problem, the average motorist has
become so accustomed to his weekend
and Sunday pleasure runs that these
almost become a necessity. Conse-
ouently, if he can afford it, he will seek
those parts of the country where he
may indulge in his pastime. In this
respect California extends a more well
come hand and cordial greeting to the
outside world than any other state in
the Union.
"Snow covers the ground all the way
from Indiana to California, and in most
of the states east of here it is bitterly

MANAGEMENT IS
AWAKE TOCALLS
OF THE PUBLIC
SUGGESTIONS OF HERALD ARE
ACCEPTED PROMPTLY
WORK TO BEGIN IN EARLY SPRING
TO IMPROVE TRACK
When Completed, Ascot Park VIII Be
Fastest Track in the World
for Racing and for
Stock Cars

The great success of the Christmas
race meet given by the Los Angeles
Motor Racing association, and the fast
time made on that occasion have en-
phasized the possibilities of the draw
ing power of speedy automobile races
in Los Angeles.
Barney Oldheld has outlined in the
following letter what he considers
would be practical to create at Ascot
park a speedway for automobiles sec
ond to none in the country:
"Mr. Walter Hempel, President Los
Angeles Motor Racing Association,
317 Lissner Building, City:
Dear Sir-In reference to your re-
quest, I take pleasure in outlining what
I think practical to convert Ascot park
into a first class motor speedway.
''It is my suggestion that you cut
down the turns on the pole three or four
feet making the track perfectly
smooth, removing all uneven spots and
bumps, and cover the entire course
with thorough coating of oil. BY this
I do not mean the sprinkling of oil on
the surface, but a thorough working in
of the oil, which would give a surface
hard as asphalt.
81 believe that on track of this kind
I can drive a mile under thirty-five sec
seconds.
CAS- you have one of the best equipped
racing plants in the country, with a
first class car service, feel confident
that you can develop automobile racing
at Ascot park into a very profitable
business. You know me,
BARNEY OLDFIELD."
The Los Angeles Motor Racing asso-
citation has definitely decided to adopt
Barney's suggestion, and early in the
spring work will be begun on the track
and grounds, and about May Is the new
track is to be opened with a race meet
over the new surface, and an attempt
will be made to break every worlds
record for mile dirt tracks from one
to two hundred miles.
The turns will be banked at an angle
of 30 per cent. Both the inner and outer
track fences are to be removed, and
an asphaltum oiled surface will COM
pletely cover the track. 1t will make
1t as smooth as a floor. absolutely dust
less, and racing machines will be en-
abled to go into the turns at full speed.
Fifty-cent bleacher seats will be pro-
vided and high wire fences erected to
keep the spectators at least fifteen feet
from the edge of the track.
II will take at least two months to
make these alterations and improve
ments, and as the Los Angeles Motor
Car association has arranged for the
of several eastern drivers
here during February and March, this
work viii commence Immediately after
the conclusion of the March meet.
BY next summer Los Angeles will
have a motor car course which should
not only appeal to the speed enthusi-
asts, but will also be available for the
use of the local dealers for demonstra-
tion purposes.

HERALD MAN
ALL EYES ARE ON TWO FASTEST
RIDERS IN WORLD
Coliseum This Afternoon Will See the
Most Wonderful Exhibitions of
Daring skill Ever Seen Upon
Any Track in World

At $50 last night G.. I. Kramer, man
ager of the Coliseum, called at the
office of The Herald and deposited
with the automobile editor of this
paper the sum of $100 to cover the
wager of a similar amount already
deposited by Jake De Roster for the
result of the contest of 100 miles to be
run this afternoon at the saucer track
of the Coliseum, so that both these
daring riders have naught to do today
but get out ON their machines and de-
eide once and for all which is king of
the motorcycle track.
Probably no event has caused more
commotion and excitement than the
rivalry which exists between these two
young men. Both are in the very pink
of condition and Eddie Lingenfelder
has been doing some athletic events
along with his work as thoughfhe was
in training for a meet with Battling
Nelson at McCarey's pavilion. His
muscles are like iron and his grip on
the handle-bars will be one of the
. aids to his riding, while his practice
work on his beautiful N. S. U. salts
fies him at least that he will capture
the record from the willy Frenchman.
The solemn Jake has little or moth
ing to say about what he expects to
do this afternoon, it being a charac-
teristic of this son of France to keep
largely by himself, and he wanders
about Napoleon-like, wrapped in
thoughts wholly his own, but there is
the same old determined grim look on
the face of the daring French motor
cycle rider which has carried him
through many events and brought him
home the winner.
The whole program for the 1OO-mile
event composes five of the fastest
track riders in the world, and today
Los Angeles is to be the scene of the
fastest motorcycle riding the world
has ever known. Whittier, Samuelson
and Mitchell are on the program and
they are not to be turned down. for
The Herald is informed that Whittier
has been reeling off some lightning
speed miles without making any fuss
about it whatever, his mark in nrac-
