The damage suit against Sen
ator Gore of oklahoma by lady
who wants $4,000 of his money
because, as she alleges, the senator
took undue liberties with her on a
certain occasion, is attracting the
attention of the whole country and
putting the blind statesman most
unpleasantly in the limelight. Okla
homa politics are something fierce,
piti,ess and strenuous and there are
plenty of men out there who are very
anxious to break the firm hold
which Senator Gore has upon the
common people. He says that this
case is an effort on their part to
ruin him and we are inclined to be-
lieve him.

Unknown to any but the closest
trends of the King Motor Company.
Work has been going on since the first
OF last January which. when consum-
mated, will place this company in the
automobile racing field through the use
o. one OF its cars by Arthur Klein OF
Youngstown. Ohio. Mr. Klein has been
working upon the car at the factory in
Detroit. Both the car and the driver
are surprise. for MIR. Klein is a young
man barely over twenty. lie has made
name for himself as a driver of skill.

for which he has now entered.

the opening of the Indianapolis speed

the race. In STANDARDIZATION car.

The Good Roads Platform.

Last summer the National Automobile
! Chamber of Commerce proposed the sub
stitution of permanent roads for the pres
ent type and adopted a good roads plat
form embracing the following articles:
1T is uneconomical and waste OF
time and money to build roads unsuited
to the volume and character of traffic
and of short durability.
CONSTRUCTION or reconstruction of all
main through roads between important
trade centers, state capitals and centers
of large population not more than 100
mics apart Should be of permanent char
acter.
Road foundations, culverts, retaining
walls and road base should have a dura-
biity equal to or exceeding the life of the
bonds issued to pay for the construction
of the roads.
Roads which sustain a considerable
volume CT mixed horse and motor vehicle
traffic should have surface that will
. not ravel under such traffic. that will
not become dusty by wear and the ef-
fects of weather. that will be impervious
to water and viii not be loosened by
frost.
Until such time as traffic over sub
sidiary roads and relatively little used
country roads warrants improvement with
permanent construction they should be
maintained in serviceable condition for
the traffic using them by relatively mex
pensive methods, such as dragging, or by
the application of gravel, sand, clay,
shells, etc

PLEASURE OF MOTOR TRIP

They left Richmond. Va. Monday after

of the heavy condition of the roads to
spend the night at Louisa. Va, and re-
sumo their journey the next day. After
battling with the mud for part of two

for his services were a Los Angelo

work of preparing his car for the lon

II is said that several of the Los Ange

look over the field of foreign entrie
with the idea of offering them induce
ments to come to Santa Monica for flu

QUEST BY THE AUTO MEN
Owners and Manufacturers Study
Purchasing Power in the
Several States.

Purchasing power that can be accredit-
ed to various sections of the United
States is being very carefully studied by
owners and automobile manufacturers
more so at present than in former years
The study is interesting For instance,
in the state of New York there are near
y 1000 men who are known to possess
from S25o.00O to 81. 100000 each. and more
There are also 1902 who are rated as
possessing over 100000 and in addition
to these 10000 are credited with being
worth from s5o.or' upward. These fig
ures prove why New York is the Empire
state in truth as to the number of auto
mobiles annually purchased. The pur-
chase power exists. The above figures
and others We're derived upon careful in
restigation by Fred ]. Titus. wholesale

CONNCT-MADE BRICKS
FOR NEW YORK ROADS
New and Radical Policy Is launch
ed by Signing of the Muir
taugh Bill.

With the signing OF the Murtash bill
last week by Gov. Glynn of New York.
new and radical good roads policy was
launched. The new act appropriates So
O0o for the erection of state plant a.
the Elmira reformatory for the manufac-
ture by convict labor of vit-ified brick to
be used for paving the state roads. The
act takes effect at once and Highway
Commissioner Carlisle predicts that the
plant will be in operation and some new
trick roads built before fan.
This is one Of the bills recommended
in the remarkable message By the GOV
crnor to the Legislature April |. in which
he urged that the highway problem IN
New York state be solved BY substituting
durable roads OF brick for the present un-
satisfactory macadam roads where traffic
is heavy, and that convicts he employed
in the manufacture Of brick.
These suggestions have been indorsed
by the press almost unanimously and
have the particular approval of the auto
mobile and motor truck interests. which
have advocated the building of more
permanent types of roads that will NOT
be destroyed by these vehicles, whose
owners are the only class of road users
that pay special tax for road mainte-
nance.
