Haynes and the officials will draw up
the dates in the near future.

MUST KEEP FAITH,
BUTLER DECLARES
Chairman of Contest Board
Deplores False Statements
in Advertising.
By HARRY WARD.

The future OF automobile contests 10
a matter that is causing the leaders in
the sport and industry some little con-
cern.
AS head of the contest board of the
American Automobile Association, the
governing body of automobile sports,
Samuel NJ. Butler has devoted much
thought to the subject. and his views
are Of more than passing interest.
Chairman Butler points out that the
future of automobile contests depends
largely on keeping faith with 'he public.
Five thousand people may witness a
contest. he says, while 10000 will read
about 1t in the news and advertising
columns of the daily press.
,, He advocates strict adherence to
the facts in advertising, in order that
the thousands who are unable to wit
ness the contest, and who get theiE only
information through the press, should
,, not be misled by adroitly worded ad-
vertisements, which leave their readers
fioundering in a sea of doubt as to
which car or character of car was the
real winner. He would hold tie manu-
facturers to a strict accountability In
this matter. .
