North End Rivals.
CHOONMAKER'S GOOD WORK
This Weeks Schedule Bristles

Members OF the New Jersey Automobile
and Motor Club are divided over the radi-
cal action of the trustees last week n
seeding from the state and national bodies
because of the failure Of the Newark club
and the Associated Automobile Clubs or
New Jersey to agree on a harmonious plan
for legislation
The trustees withdrew from the state
body SO far as they legally could. but by
a divided vote. and Special meeting or
the club was demanded by those opposed
to the action and has been called by Presi-
dent Clarence Il. BisselI for "Wednesday
evening.
The call for the special meeting states
as one OF It's objects the consideration OF
a bylaw making membership in the state
body an essential of membership in the
Newark club. This bylaw VIII be put 70

voted IN the affirmative and Joseph H.

the subject was sent out IN the form Of a
letter to all the members OF the New Jer-
sey Automobile and Motor Club. signed by
d number of prominent motorists and up
holding absolutely the position Of the as
sociated clubs.
The trouble originated over d reciprocity
clause in a proposed bill, the lack Of such
q clause in the present law having been the
bone Of contention of motor vehicle owners
for some three years. Mr. Wood, n his
statement TO the members, saws in part:
