NORTH NEW MEXICO
ROADS ARE POOR

Stanley R. Graham and wife. OF Chi
cago, and Ivan NJ. Olson, infielder Of
the Cincinnati club Of the National
league, have arrived in Los Angeles
from Chicago, after having driven by
way of Denver, Albuquerque and the
Grand canyon in car.
They found the road bad much Of the
way west from Albuquerque, in con-
trast to the splendid condition they
would have found had they come south
and taken the BOrderland.
The Los Angeles Examiner, one of
the papers boosting the northern New
Mexico route. prints the following
about part Of the trip:
''The roads from Albuquerque to
Flagstaff were poor. From Flagstaff
to the Grand Canyon, where they
stopped three days, they found good
roads. The roads from FL Tovar to Sc
liEman were good, but from there into
Barstow, except for a few miles, they
were bad
From Barstow to San Bernardino
they encountered a rainstorm which
changed to snow at the summit of the
pass, and the roads were not in good
condition"

ALL GOOD ROADS BOOSTING
TO BE DONE IN UNISON

The merging Of national road con-
Ventions in an All American Road Con-
gFess at San Francisco in 1915 during
the exposition was foreshadOWed in a
meeting Of the directors of the Ameri-
can Highway association in Washing
ton recently. The board authorized a
committee Of two members to meet a
like committee from the American
Road Builders association, these four
TO choose a fifth member and thus
form an executive committee to handle
the great road congress.
The two associations named. have In
their own ranks or Immediately iden-
tlfled with them practically all Of the
recognized official and unofficial good
roads workers in the United States and
Canada
= At the Road Congress recently held
IN Atlanta, Georgia, by the American
Highway association and its allied or
Eanizations, upwards Of 1000 delegates
and visitors were registered. At the
convention to be held in Chicago in
December, under the auspices Of the
American Road Builders association,
1t is expected that the registration will
not be far short of the Atlanta atten-
dance. The combining of these two
great meetings should result in an at
tendance of from 1000 to 10000.
A legislative committee was an
pointed by the board to cooperate with
the L. s. office of Public Roads. a
special committee from the American
Bar association and committees of the
various state legislatures in bringing
about revision of state road laws. A
temporary committee which was an
pointed last year had already compiled
the road laws of all the states SO that
the new committee has ready for its
use great mass Of material properly
lHueAed ana cross referenCed.

HOTEL MEN TO BOOM
Ell PASO TO MOTORISTS

Ell Paso and the southwest are to be
exploited by the Southern Interstate
Hotel Mems association with a view OF
attracting tourists through this sec
ton of the country en- route 20 the
Panama-Pacific exposition next year
The members of this association believe
that they have outlined an advertising
campaign that will bring hundreds of
automobile tourists over the Southern
Highway and the Borderland route next
sowing and summer.
Burt Orndorff proprietor of Hotel
Sheldon, has just returned from at
tending the convention and he states
THAI an excellent campaign Is TO be
conducted and that he believes ma
jority OF the tourists viii come by way
Of FL PasO instead of Denver. Pictures
Of street scenes and parks Of Juarez
and other spots of interest in FL Paso
and immediate vicinity will appear IN
the magazines and pamphlets to be Is
sued by this association.
The association appropriated large
sum Of money with which to conduct
the campaign. In the opinion OF MT
Orndortf 1t will result in more tourists
coming by way of Ell Paso than have
Travelled over this route in the past
three years.

was arranged. Both pilots urged that
the agreement carry heavy side wagers,
with a large bonus for the one creating
a new worlds record for the distance
Louis Disbrow now holds the so mile
mark.
Several efforts have been made in the
past to match Oldfield and Burman, but
something always arose to block the
race. san Francisco a few years ago
offered a large purse for race between
Oldfield and Burman. Then Chicago
and New York tried, there being offered
a purse of $4,000 at one time for a
so mile contest over the Brighton Beach
track.
The bringing Of the two together at
this time is the result Of a controversy
which has been waged back and forth
ever since Burman started for the
coast for the Corona race. The rivalry
between the two has been keen for
years and when they were brought
close together the old war as to the
speed supremacy Of the two was re-
opened.
BUrman with his PeugeOt made the
most sensational mile ever recorded on
the coast in preparation for the Corona.
turning the circle at the rate Of 1928
miles per hour.

Los Angeles, Too, Rides
in the "Jitney" Motors

Los Angeles, Cali, Dec. 12.-One hun
dred thousand people in Los Angeles
who do not own automobiles, ride in
them daily. The business man headed
for the office in modest roadster is
apt to see his stenographer or a clerk
or two alighting from a 1915 seven pas
senger self starter just before him.
This luxurious condition is brought
about by the 'jitney busses," which
are autos running in competition with
the street cars. The fare is five cents
The busses follow the routes Of the car
lines, picking up passengers at the
corners.
The bus drivers are organized into
an association, pay city licenses and
are figuring on blanket insurance.
There are almost 1000 machines in the
service, each of which is said to col
lect from 81 to Sc daily in fares.
After the morning rush the ''jitneys"
are in demand by women shoppers. A
ride Of so to 60 blocks in an auto APP
peals strongly when the price is only
a nickel.
It is predicted that the number Of
"jitneys" will be doubled in 1915, as
80 percent of the visitors of the two
great California expositions are eX-
pected to come to Los Angeles, this city
being the gateway to both.

AUTO TIRES MAY
NOT CO Up NOW
German Fleet in South Amer
lean Waters Had Been
Curtailing Shipments.

The destruction of the German fleet
off the Falkland islands this week
should be good news to automobile
owners, according to tire dealers, for.
the presence of the German vessels
has been a menace to shipping and has
resulted largely in curtailing the re-
ceipt of crude rubber in the United
States.
The price of crude rubber, which has
been hanging at So cents for several
weeks, last week increased Is percent,
due to the difficulties experienced in
bringing rubber into this country.
One of the immediate causes was the
canceling of sailing dates for British
ships in South America, due to the
presence of the German fleet Of COM
merce destroyers off the mouth of the
Amazon and the Platte. This cut down
the receipts in New York by several
shiploads each day, and the demand at
this time of the year is very heavy.
In the far east, too, they are not
shipping rubber. Meantime, the facto-
rfes are rapidly cutting into their re-
serve supply. II another shift does not
occur. dealers look for an increase in
the price of tires.
The cruiser Emden, which was sunk
recently after a career in which it de-
sfroved many merchant vessels, was
the cause of worry to the rubber trade
of the United States.
The Emden probably cost the rubber
industry in America $1,000, 900, directly
or otherwise. Before the engagement
with the Sydney, which ended the EN-
den's career, 1t sank nearly two dozen
merchant ships. One OF those carried
1900 tons of crude rubber from the far
east bound for London, and two others
carried 500 tons of crude rubber each
The United States gets most of it's
crude rubber supply from London.

AUTO As GIFT
FOR THE FAMILY.
Father Can Satisfy All by
Getting an Automobile
For Christmas.

At this time of the year. Christmas
the automobile looms up big DeIoI5 INC

mental strains on the business man 70
determine what these presents shouIu
be.
The purchase Of an automobile will
satisfy every desire on the part OF Ihe
one who receives it; other presents can
be quickly put out of ones mind ana
it is a simple matter to include several
persons in the intent of the glII
For instance, the husband might give
a car to his family. By one sWoop ne
covers all that is expected OF MN at
Christmas. His son will rejoice IN
visions Of one night week IN the car /:
his wife will revel in the thought OF
taking her friends to the club meetings
tin her own machine, and daughter
will have the rosiest visions of driving
her class in January in her rather
car Incidentally, father has included
himself in the gift TO his family. All
will be satisfied. and the best proof is
that many families have been well sat
isfied and appreciative of such a gift
given to all at the expense Of other
smaller remembrances.
The condition which makes this pos
sible is the universal craving for the
automobile. man or woman who is
without a car cannot pass one on the
street without a desire-howeve slight
it may be-for one of the moving pal
aces and given a chance to have one,
of even the most inferior type, he or she
jumps at the opportunity. Thus the
people have made the automobile; thus
the people long for the automobile;
thus at Christmas time, father, mother

Motor Cars Aid To
German Artillery

Motor cars fitted with machine guns
and armOr plating for touring cars have
proved to be the two greatest requis-
ties of the allies in the war. It now is
evident that the German military au-
thorities had realized the immense i'm
pOrtance of possessing guns with
greater mobility than can be obtained
from the use of horses. On the out
break of war they had large numbers
of cars, each one carrying a rapid fir
ing gun, with complete protection by
means of armOr plating, by means Of
which they were able to make rapid
invasions into the enemy's country and
to inflict enormous damage. There
is no doubt that the value Of these
guns was enhanced 100 percent by rea-
son Of their extreme mobility. Officers
of the allied forces have declared that
again and again their infantry have
got within striking distance of the
German motor car guns. but have been
unable to capture them.

SEA SWALLOWS UP
THIS HUNTERS AUTO
California Driver Receivers His Car
After Eight Hours of Effort
on Coast

on Coast.
The ownership of the first deep-sea
diving automobile in the world is
claimed by Fenton Norman, an enthusi-
astic hunter and motorist Of Santa
Paula, Cal Accompanied by a friend he
set out one morning and motored to
OXnard from Los Angeles. From there
they went direct to the coast bound for
Point Maya, where great gatherings Of
canvasbacks and teal are.
The shore line for many miles is
clear and wide, affording a splendid
roadway for motorists. But on account
Of dark morning fog the headlight
was of little advantage and the riding
was slow and somewhat dangerous.
Reaching Point Maya it was necessary
to take to deeper water in order to
slightest forewarning the roadster
ducked into sand hole and the radia-
tor was covered with water in a min
ute. No sooner had the passengers
scrambled to the beach than the entire
body of the car was swallowed in the
salt water.
Assistance at that early hour in the
morning was nowhere in sight and
Norman set out for the nearest farm
house, several miles distant With the
arrival Of a crew of ranch hands and
eight horses the salvage work COM
menced After eight hours of compe-
tition with the rising tide and soft
sand, the little car was at length hauled
to the surface at the end of a long ca
bic. Notwithstanding the aggravated
nature Of the test Norman was sur
prised at the wonderful endurance of
his car and with a hurried cleaning of
the carburetOr and magnetic he made
car.
