between the shows iis not official but
the two have an industrial commun-

of this mutual interest that the newly

The immediate future OF no other

time for the exposition have been
chosen.
This show will stress the truck"

of the association. "Tt takes little in

VISITS DETROIT
Tulsa Man Found Much of

from a trip TO the factories at Detroit.
This is the first factory visit made by
Mr.. Worthington since he became in

tons and views coming fresh from the
center OF the motor industry in these
times of change, are of special inter-
est
Everywhere | went 1t seemed to
me the people were keen to hear about
Tulsa and OF its wonderful growth and
prosperity, and naturally one is not
reluctant 10 admit the many good
things which they have heard about
our city. But | have learned that if
you don't want to pay q pretty stiff
hotel tariff after signing as from

According to Mr.. Worthington the
deliveries from the motor factories
for points from the Missouri river to
the seaboard. and south as far as At
lanta, are chiefly drive outs.
"a man could not have stood with
me and watched the New York Dodge
Brothers dealer wheel away in the
deep snow for New York with q t1eet
OF 80 cars and have talked it'll deal

for drive ways, without being thor
oily convinced of the practica bility
and ependability of tho modern mo-

are more and more placing on motors

The general condition of the mo-

those factories that In peace times
enjoy a good prosperity do not seem
to be losing any ground now. OF

Goethals Tells of Immediate

GAINS IN USERS OF MOTORS

The high cost OF building roads

itary as well as transportation assets,

engineer, said In his annual report

Goethals declared. ls the state is on

Governor Edge, after reading the
report, said delay in road buildins
was not warranted IL based on COSTS.
and emphasized General Goethars
illusions 10 the military value OF the
highways.
IF the state should await the re-
turn OF lower cost prices" General
Goethals said in part. there will re-
suit attendant loss of business ana
consequently a higher ultimate cost
of all things considered, and any diff
ference In cost would not warrant
such a curtailment OF the enterprise.
and so far as that viewpoint is con
cerned, In the opinion OF many eco
nomic authorities, lower construction
price conditions will never return"
General Goethals then says: The
congested condition of the railroads
for some time past brought the motor
truck to the fore as means Of trans
porting farm and manufactured
products The present and prospec-
tive war conditions affecting the
handling of freight by the railroads
will result in n greater use of motor
trucks as well as tend to increase the
loads hauled by them. In the state OF
New Jersey motor truck routes have
already been established and. In ad
dition, manufacturing concerns are
establishing their own service for
handling their products. Consequent
ly the necessity for GOOD roads is now
greater than ever. and to handle such
traffic the roads must be provided
with good foundIt1ons, with prope:

Apparently. with this view or tne

USE OF HIGHWAYS
FOR SHORT HAULS
Commercial Motor Vehicles the
Only Solution to Present
Railway Congestion.
OPINION OF DARWIN HATCl
Government Should Pass Laws
Regulating Short Hauls by
the Railway System.

(By II s HATCH. Editor Motor Age)
IL the government could pass regu-
lations which would eliminate snort
hauls on railroads. the lack of trans
portation facilities which is threaten
ing Arlerica's greatest efforts in tho
war would be very largely done away
with. u these short hauls could be
turned over to motor trucks, AMI even
to passo niger cars tho railway con-
gestion problem would be relieved
very materially. This is the opnion
or II. l.. Hornlng, chairman OF the
automobile products section Of tho
war Industries board, Council OF Ma
tional Defense, as expressed 10 Edi-
torial Conference Of the Associated

Talk by Horning.
Mr.. HOrning's talk was of most i'm
mediate interest to the motor industry
as he Is one of the men best qualified
to tell the possibilities of motor
equipment In conjunction with lail-
road transportation. His present dut!cs
as chairman of the automotive prod
ucts section OF the war Industries
board give him complete supervision
OF the truck, military, tractor, motor
cycle, engines and accessories, air
plane parts, motor boats and gas en-
gines, and he represents these indus
tries on all matters pertaining to
priority and general production and
purchases.
Mr.. Mornings suggestion is that ar
rangements be made for short hauls
from terminals by motor truck. leav-
ing tho railway facilities for the
longer distances. and that the motor
truck haul gradually be increased. For
instance. the first month the distance
for motor truck haulage might be ton

miles and for the third month thirty
miles He made the point whion was
emphasized by later speakers, that
our whole program OF winning the
war depends on the railway facilities.
