FALSE ECONOMY
OF LIGHT TIRES
Modern Light Six Should Not Be
Underlined Merely to Save
Initial Expense.

The lighter car undoubtedly ex-
presses a wide public demand. En-
gineers, in fact, are strairing to meet
the call for less weight This may
be all right if they are wise enough
not TO sacrifice the strength Of vital
parts in order TO cut down on actual
pounds.
1t is very easy thing to run into
extremes. Harry S. HOupt. president
Of the New York Hudson Company,
calls attention to the fallacy of fitting
small tires to light cars merely to save
initial expense. He says:
Small tires do not absorb road
shocks. and they require initiating TO
higher pressure to support the same
load with the same distortion of the
tire fabric. II is the undue distortion
Of the built-up cotton fabric in the
tire that entails its early breakdown.
"A big tire properly inflated will give
greater ease and comfort to the riders
in a car and will more effectively pro-
tect the mechanism of the car than
will the small tire, while its length Of
service will more than compensate for
its extra first cost.
an driving the car the owner should
see first that his tires are properly
inflated; then he should use his brakes
as little as possible (and it is sur
prising how seldom the brake is re-
quired in ordinary driving).
Last, but by no means least, do not
change your gears or accelerate too
quickly and you will be surprised how
many dollars you will save on your
tire bill"

STATE MOTORISTS
MEET AT NIAGARA
Prospect for Reciprocity
with Canada Looks
More Encouraging.

Reciprocity between all OF the prov
inces of Canada and the United States
will be the chief topic at the mid-sum-
mer meeting of the New York State
Automobile Association, at Niagara
Falls tomorrow.
The province of Manitoba extends
thirty days; Quebec three months and
New Brunswick twenty-one days, but
the other provinces do not recognize
cars with United States license plates.
A determined effort will now be made
to obtain reciprocity with all the other
provinces.
Hon. W. J. Hanna, provincial secre-
tary of the PROVINCE of Ontario, and
Commissioner OF Highways j. ii. Nc
Lean. also of the Province of Ontario,
will both discuss this question at the
meeting. Francis VI. Hugo, Secretary
Of State, who is to be another of the
speakers, and who has always believed
that touring should be placed on a reel
procity basis, will discuss a phase OF
this question, telling just what the
state of New York has done towards
this end, and suggesting what might
yet be done to effect reciprocity ar

RUSH TO YELLOWSTONE
Indications Point to an Enor.
nous Assemblage of Cars.

Colonel Brett. L. s. A., superintend-
ent of Yellowstone Park, has COM
pleted rules and arrangements for the
rush of motorists which will sweep
toward the park on the official opening
DAY, August l.
If the reports Of the number Of
tourists who are preparing to go to
the park on or about August l are
true il will be one Of the most un-
usual assemblages Of motor cars which
has ever gathered.
Every precaution is being made TO
take care Of not only the safety of the
motor travellers but of visitors, who
will still employ the horse-drawn
stages 1t is going to be rather
difficult matter to handle both horses
and motors on some of the popular
roads through the park. Those who
contemplate a visit to the park this
summer will probably be able to see
more and have a more enjoyable visit
if they defer their trip until the first
rush is over.

SPEEDWAY SCHEDULED TO OPEN WITH OoNE OCTOBER
DEFINES RESPONSIBILITY
Commercial Travellers by Mo-
tor Can't Dodge Damages.

The Supreme Court of Nebraska has
decided that where several statesmen
are travelling for business purposes in
a car which is owned by one of them
each is personally responsible for any
accident or damages caused by the
one who happens to be seated at the
wheel.
1t is a question which practically
every state in the Union will have to
pass on in the near future. In all
parts of the country statesmen in nom
competing lines have dubbed together
for the purpose of covering given
territory in car which S generally
owned by one of the members of the
club
These commercial travellers take
advantage of every opportunity 70
travel from one town to the other by
night, and they do not always obey
the speed laws.
Numerous accidents have resulted,
but until now they have been able to
dodge responsibility by setting up
a claim that the car was owned by
one of the party, whose property was
usually so arranged it would be almost
impossible to collect damages.

Ferry to Atlantic Highlands.

The old ferry boat Castle,on has
been purchased from the city of New
York by the Delaware Hudson Steam
ship Company and is being operated
between the Battery and Atlantic
Highlands. Motor cars are carried at
the rate Of % cents lineal foot. Cars
are measured after they 90 aboard.
The boat is scheduled 10 leave the
Municipal Ferry, Battery, daily al 10
a. m. and p. m.
One Of the chief advantages Of this
ferry is that it reaches the road over
the Highlands, which was built last
year. and which takes the traveller
away from the miserable stretch OF
road below South Amboy. This new
boulevard rises over the highlands and
dips down, by modern grade, 10 the
ocean road, which extends along the
coast, through the Jersey coast re-
sorts. It overlooks Sandy Hook and
affords marine view which cannot
be had at any other point on the coast
OF Jersey.
