AUTO DELEGATES
NAMED FOR LOGAN

Realizing the automobile interests OF
Salt Lake should be represented, and
strongly represented, Mt the Logan Good
Roads convention on Juno 12, l3 and IA,
it Is proposed 10 organize an automobile
train and journey TO Logan IN a body,
This much was decided upon at u meat
ing. or rathor. series OF meetings Of
the directors OF the Automobile Club Of
Utah held during tho past two weeks.
It Is believed with the splendid rond con-
ditions through Weber and Box Elder
counties a trip Of this kind would mako
g. splendfd outing for the automobllista,
and as all automobilists are out for bet
ter highways, there seems no reason why
Salt Lakes large army OF car owners
should not at loast give their moral sup
port 10 tho convention by their attend
ance.
At a meeting Of tho directors held on
Friday afternoon 1--WE Delegates TO repro
6out tho Automobile club were appointed.
They are Sid Theobold. K K Khntzer.

meeting TO call q general meeting Of the
automobilists OF the city for next Friday
night, June z, at the Commercial club.
at which time It Is expected TO organize
an automobile excursion that Will give

pointed chairman OF this meeting and

BORROWING" CARS
DANGEROUS PASTIME

Automobile dealers and private own.
ers at Washington, D. c., are pleased
by reason Of the Introduction of a. bill
In the senate few days ago by Sen.
ator Brandegee providing for imprison-
ment for from one to ten years rs a
ponalty in the district for the taking
Of an automobile without the owner 's
consent. The enactment of this bill has
6een strongly urged by Maj. Richard
sylvester, superintendent of police, and
United States Attorney Clarence Il.
Wilson, both Of whom declare that the
present penalty is inadequate The
penalty suggested is the same that can
now be imposed for grand larceny with
in the District. The passage of such an
act Will put an end to ''joy ridinpU in
borrowed machines, which has
caused the Washington police not
little amount OF trouble, not to speak
OF the Inconvenience to car owners. A
law similar to this is now on the stat
utes in many Of the states.

Chicago, May IS.

The above Is q fair sample of fetters
of inquiry received almost daily by
this department. So many stories have
been published in eastern papers md
automobile journals about the hard
ships Of a transcontinental trip, that
there are many people who actually be-
lieve it is true. This has resulted prin-
cipally through the press matter sent
out by automobile manufacturers tell
ing Of narrowing experiences Of somo
car or other on a transcontinental trip,
in order to prove the stability Of that
particular make Of car. AS result
TIP is almost impossible, when as n
matter Of fact the conditions through
the Rocky mountain sections arc far
better than cast Of the Mississippi. Mr.
Hunter was informed that trip from
Chicago to California In q motor car
was not nearly rs hazardous as q trip
OF the same distance through the bust
ness section OF Chicago, which is true.
lt would be well for automobile clubs
and commercial bodies Of the west, who
are desirous of encouraging automobile
travel. to take concerted action to cor
rect this mistaken idea. A trip from
Chicago to California by automobile to-
day Is not nearly rs difficult as a trip
OF Like distance anywhere in the east
would be. The party in the car will
find hotel to stop ut every night
we'll equipped garage for repairs scat
tered all along the route, and plenty
OF gasoline and oil supply stations.

ONE SHOW FOR
NEW YORK IN 1913

New York will have but one auto
mobile show next winter, and it will be
so big as TO make necessary the use OF
| two buildings. This was settled def
! initely last week, when a contract was
signed for the use of Madison Square
garden by the automobile board of
trade, which also has lease on the
new Grand Central palace.
The combined shows will be held
under the auspices Of the automobile
board OF trade. the exhibits being di-
vided between the new Grand Central
palace and Madison Square garden.
According to present plans, the shows
will be open to all makers Of motor
cars and accessories, but the plan OF
allotting space has not boen definitely
settled. 1t is not unlikely that sin
gle ticket will admit TO both buildings.
with arrangements for convenisntly
transporting visitors from one building
to tho other.
1t was believed that Madison Square
garden would remain up for a year.
but the announcement of the board
Of trade makes this certainty. The
Grand Central palace people state that
plans for thoir arena, which is to be
built alongside the present palace, are
being perfected and that it will DO
ready for the 1914 automobile show.
The show committee Of the auto.
mobile board Of trade that will have
in charge the big double exhibition next
winter are Colonel George Pope (ehair
