PLAN UNIFORM AUTO
LAW CONVENTION INN. Y.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-This city
will within the next month be the
scene Of a discussion having in view
uniform nonresident provisions in the
automobile laws of all the eastern
states. Secretary of State Koenig, At
torney General O'Malley and Assem-
blyman Callan will be present to ex-
plain the recognition in the new Cal
Ian law Of reciprocal privileges grant
ed by other states to non-residents.
From all the New England states
as well as the Atlantic coast states
south of New York the executive Off
GERS having jurisdiction in automobile
misioners will be invited. Logan
Waller Page, director of the office of
public roads of the department of ag-
riculture, has promised to attend.
The Touring Club of America is
arranging the conference as the result
of a widespread sentiment among
eastern motorists that all the states,
whatever their individual motor regu-
lations may be, should adopt a uni
form system of interstate touring
privileges, including uniform methods
of identification.
Frederick H. Elliott, secretary of
the Touring Club of America, who has
been a strong advocate Of uniformity
as regards Interstate touring, sums
UP the situation as follows: II believe
that there is only one solution of the
interstate regulation governing the
operation of motor vehicles, and that
is to have each state adopt a nom
resident provision which will be uni

At ASCOT PARK
Weather Permitting, Speed King
Will Hit the Track This
Afternoon

The automobile races and worlds rec
ord trials of Speed King Barney Old
field, scheduled to start Saturday, were
postponed on account of rain, and this
afternoon a double-dose of speed enter
tainment will be offered the hungry
auto fans. While little rain fell down
town, j. Pluvius was a little more in
dustrious at Ascot. and unloaded
enough wetness to soak the track and
make racing too dangerous and record
trials out of the question.
Several of the racing machines were
on hand and gave exhibitions in the
mud, but no fast miles were made and
Barney didn't venture to make a single
circuit with his big racing machines
The program planned for this afternoon
is Just double the ordinary offering, and
there will be q special feature in the
shape of match race in which Barney
Oldheld will hook UP with Roger
Stearns.
Another entry was received yesterday
when Nick Nikrent notified the man
agement that he would drive the big
six-cylinder Knox in the stock car
races and the handicaps. Nikrent re-
Gently won six ou of ten firsts at the
smotordrome meet and is one of the best
track drivers on the Pacific coast.
The weather man willing, Ascot park
will be in the best shape it has ever
been for auto races. The first race this
afternoon will start promptly at 2:30,
and an effort will be made to run or
the double program by o'clock.
