Promotion of better feeling between

police department frequently consults
the club about traffic regulations. and
the club often calls the attention of
the city authorities to the necessity
of road repairs. 1t has indirectly as

saving them both money and annoy

of securing n reduction in tolls across

EUROPEAN IDEA
in CROW ELK-HART
Realizing Value of Compact
Motor Arrangement, Manu-
facturers Adopt the Idea

The Crow Motor Car company, of
famous Crow Elk-Hart Car. have been
among the very first to anticipate the
trend of automobile construction to-
ward it's present development, by
Americanizing the European idea of
compactness and high power in small
space according to Nom Bros, Seven
teenth and Swatara streets, local dis
tributors. ''One might think" says
Mr.. Nom, that because the Crow
Elk-Hart engine weighs considerably
less than the motors of most other cars
in the Crow Elk Hart price-class, the
burden of proof as to power would
seem to be in favor of the heavier mo-
tors. The startling results of the In
dianapolis Speedway and Elgin races.
however, in showing most frequently
among their winners the European
small-space lightweight motor. have
completely upset old theories on the
point In fact nowhere has the AM
erican automobile designers debt to
the European practice claimed more
attention than in this manner of mo-
tor construction.
This same policy of compactness
plus strength has been used through
out the entire car. 1t has enabled us
to build q splendid service automobile
weighing only 1870 pounds. The re-
suit as a hill climber and a winner
under eXasperating road conditions,
the Crow ElkHart has never been sur
passed. One owner recently wrote US:
L have just returned from a 500-mile
trip up North. and though have
driven all kinds of cars for the last
ten years, have never had a car that
stood up better than the Grow Elk
Hart. To Show its strength, l had the
pleasure of helping - out of a
ditch, and pulling - car through
a bad stretch of sand where it had
stalled"
Mr.. Nom has made arrangements
to place his car on exhibition during
the local auto show and will be much
pleased to instill some of his own en-
thusiasm into the minds of his pros
poets.

STATE HIGHWAY
HEAD BELIEVES
IN COOPERATION
Cunningham Wants Motor
Clubs and Highway Depart
ment to Work Together
ENFORCE AUTO LAW
Believes 1t An Inforgivable
Offense TO Operate a Motor
Vehicle While Intoxicated

State Highway Commissioner Cum
ningham is firm believer in co-opera-
ton. In all of his speeches before
motor clubs or auto enthusiasts, he
has dwelt upon the necessity Of the
proper cooperation between the bod
les and the State Highway Depart
ment to secure the enforcement Of
the automobile law.
The violator of the automobile law
is his own worst enemy; he has no
friends and, like Ishmael of old, every
mans hand is turned against him.
But State Highway Commissioner
Cunningham believes that corrective
measures, taken by means of an en-
forcement of the automobile law, will
do more to eliminate this menace to
public safety. He has asked men,
bers of automobile clubs to report to
him cases of reckless driving, disre-
gard of proper warning signals, fail
ure to sound horn at dangerous curves
and crossings and other infractions
of the law. The State Highway De-
partment has no police force nor did
the Legislature confer upon it police
authority to enforce the motor ve-
hicle law but the State Highway Com
missioner has the power to revoke mo-
tor vehicle licenses held by persons
who persist in violating the letter and
spirit of the law.
One offense, beyond all others, is
held by Commissioner Cunningham to
be unforgivable, the operation Of a
motor vehicle by a person in an intoXi-
Gated condition. AS the automobile
is framed, this class of law breakers
must be convicted by q court for this
misdemeanor but Section II of the
automobile law gives the State High
way Commissioner authority at his
discretion to revoke or suspend, after
n hearing, the registration of any
car and the license of any driver for
improper conduct in operating a mo-
tor vehicle Commissioner Cunning
ham holds that an intoxicated person
certainly operates his car in an i'm
proper manner.
