The police have called the attention of this writer to
serious to all motorists driving within the District
There has been lately great amount OF glass lying on
the Streets left there by motorists who have suffered
broken headlight windshield.
The worst offenders in this respect the drivers of
milk wagons who make their rounds in the early morning
1t has been estimated by the police that each driver
breaks from one to six bottles every trip.
As rule these broken bottles allowed to remain
lon the street. and each is potential tire ruiner.
1t is understood steps being taken to punish
vere the drivers of these delivery wagons who leave bro
ken glass in the street
great help will be rendered only to autoists but
to the Police Department. if housekepers who broken
glass the street in front of their residence report the
matter to police headquarters and give the of their
milk server.
Again, great deal be done by auoists themselves
to alleviate this evil If each of would always
carry with him small whiskbroom and when he sees glass
the street would take the trouble and the few minutes
necessary to- sweep it into the gutter many tire would be
saved, to say nothing of the large amount of money.
Of course, would not be expected to sweep glass
from the middle of Pennsylvania avenue or any other
crowded highway but the police very wachu in these
districts and glass does not remain long the downtown
streets.
Few milk bottles broken in the congested part of
the city This evil exists mostly in the residential sections
Let's have a little auto brotherhood and remove the
glass whenever possible. CARRY THE WHISKBROOM
1t has other valuable besides.

TRUCK statesmen
SOLVE RIDDLES

Live motor truck statesmen nova
days have hard propositions put up
to them, and solve the riddles.
L. r. Sidwell. manager OF the
Michigan branch OF the Fulton Motor
Truck Company. OF Farmingdale, l. I
quite recently had placed before him
one proposition which all but stus1p-
ed him. yet he won out and lancsd
the sale. After calling upon fat
mer and convincing him that n
should have a motor truck. the faranefA
said: But have no use for a tructs
now. 1 cannot get any manure for
fertilizer, and that Is all that I would
have to haul right now. IL you can
find me some manure I'll buy a truck.
and that is an agreement" SidWell
found a carting company which was
selling fertilizer TO one man, but not
on contract. This company said that
IL the farmer would take all they
had and give a bond for $50 they
would make a contract with him. Mr..
Sidwell knew that TO get the farmer
to the city TO carry out the bond
business would mean a lot OF time
wasted, so he took the matter IN
hand, got the bond all right, then
went to the farmer with the con-
tract in his hand from the cartaEe
company, and with the bond made
out. The sale was male herewith
for cash.

regulations forbid the use Of oil for
this purpose, chiefly from a cost
basis, and for conservation OF oil
The army used a solution of sal soda
in water to clean the greasy portions
OF the truck. The ddriyers did not
like the soda. which was less expe1-
sive, but which cuts the paint and -
not so quick in its cutting the oil
The individual truck owner may well
try his own experiments on this prob
lem.
Eternal Vigilance Needed.
The driver should be required to
keep al bolts and nuts tight, watch
against lost grease cups, guard
against damage to the engine first,
and then TO report instantly any diff
ficulty that develops so that IL can be
fixed in the garage as soon as he
reaches a company station.
The fleet mechanic should make q
thorough weekly inspection to see
that the main portions OF the machine
are in good condition. This IL more or
less than a running inspection. for
cleanliness and fabrication, and to find
any evident faults with the fleet
This inspection should be regular
and preferably every week, as IL will
be used as part OF the method for
checking UP the bonus Of the individ-
uaI drivers.
The thorough shop inspection, how
ever should be so arranged that a
truck will go OF duty every two weeks
for a thorough examination and re-
pairing Of all minor troubles discoV-
cred.
Schedule For Every Car.
In a fleet which has a total of hf-
teen trucks, for instance, there should
be a schedule for the shop inspection
of every vehicle, and it's working
schedule adjusted to permit it to be
taken out Of service every second
week for inspection. A schedule
should be made out for this in
spection, whether it is made by
the chief mechanic or by
garage or a manufacturer represen-
tative. For instance, truck No. l
should go into the shop on Monday of
The 6rst week, No. 2 on Tuesday, and
son on through the fleet. This takes
one truck out OF commission daily for
an entire day. but every fleet oper-
ating this number of vehicles will be
prepared to send in q reserve vehicle
to take the place Of the mahcine in
the shop. A truck may often be in
shop on this inspection for two days,
one for the inspection and the second
for the making Of repairs which cah-
not be done the first day. Two weeks
accounts for twelve of the fifteen.
trucks. Days when the dispatcher's
record shows the lowest average OF
work should be used for inspection of
the additional three trucks. On this
method the driver should be in the
shop with his truck. as the work on
his vehicle keeps him up on the tech
nical part OF is machine.

THE TRAFFIC COP.
By c. WILES HALLoCK.

ny - EhhAAfOOAs
Who is the well-built handsome man,
In suit of navy blue or tan,
And known to ev'ry motor fan?
The Traffic Cop.
Who stands around the streets all
day.
Because It's such an easy way
To pass the time and earn his pay?
The Traffic Cop.
Who never seems put out a bit,
Although he's forced to stand, towit:
Because there amt no place to sit?
The T. c.
Who loafs between the street car
lines,
Manipulating Go-stor signs.
And flirts with all the femin-ines?
The same.
Who, be the weather cold or hot,
Will always bawl you out a lot,
Whether you arc to blame or not:
See above.
Who makes you stop, then makes you
start
So quick you rip your gears apart,
Because he hasn't got no heart:
AS before.
Who makes you waste your juice and
gas,
BY hating cars in manner Grass.
To let a mere pave-pounder pass?
That's tough.
Who'll stand and kid with some
young crow.
Forget to give the sign to go.
And keep you stalled a week or SO:
Think hard.
Who lets you pass the semaphore.
At thirty miles an hour or more,
And swears: II warned you once be-
fore:
You're pinched"
Who, when you stop to heed his call,
Takes down the names and dates and
Then rides you to the City Hall.
The Ike.
Who kids you II you can't drive we'll,
And calls you names no books can
tell.
II think this stanza sounds like the
Dickens,
Don't you?)
still, though he gets your goat, no
doubt,
And peeves you when he bawls you
out,
He's after all. q burned good scout

A new saving stunt is now offered

This device takes a tire that has real

The National Hewitt Company. Inc,

The motorist who runs on a fiat

Against this it should be noted that
Of the $500 900 miles OF highways in
the United States but $3.50 miles are
equal to the demands of heavy duty
traffic. and this mileage is made up OF
loose, unconnected links.
II would appear from this that the
needs Of the car owner have not been
considered in highway construction.
Yet his taxes amount to a sum equal
to more than half Of the total road

CUBA'S MONTE CARLO READY
 FOR BIG YEAR

Havana, Dec 29-The oft talked of plan for establishing a Monte Carlo of the Western Hemisphere in Cuba which shall be the wet rendeZ- vous for thirsty and sportive Aneri- cans after Prohibition has dried up the weu-springs of inspiration, is not a mere rumor but a going concern with plenty of capital and backing.
 The contemplated great resort, which Is expected to outdo the Old World Monte Carlo in size and in number and variety of games of chance, has been definitely located in the little watering place of San Diego Hot Springs, a few miles west of Santiago. There is only a small hotel there now, but by the winter of 192o-1921 there will be two large new hotels, a great casino and any number of smaller attractions. A deer preserve of some 1900 acres will be in shape for hunting by those who care to spend time in that fashion
 The concession for the resort has been granted by the Cuban Govern ment to the Compania Balnearia de San Diego. which has put up $S00,- 900 in gold as an evidence of good faith. The company has taken a 99-
 
 ready, 1t is said, awarded the con- tracts for the building of the casino and the hotels to American firms.
 One hotel will be modelled after the Traymore in Atlantic City, it is said. This will be exclusively for al1- season guests. The other will some what resemble the McA1pin in New York City and will be open to as many transients as it can accommo- date. The entire layout repr resents an investment of between s3,000,000 and s5,0o0,000, according to The Worlds informant, a New York law year who is looking after the inter ests of the American packers of the plan
 The company holding the conces- sion is made up entirely of Cubans. Most of whom are wealthy and are prominent in Cuban politics. Orig finally it was planned to have an | American syndicate take the con cession, but the Menoca1 Govern i ment, 1t is said, fiat1y opposed this idea and refused to grant it to any | but Cubans It is understood, how ever, that the capital stock will | eventually be owned in large part by Americans The chief promoters of 1 the plan on the American side in- 1 clude one prominent 1nancier who 1 is interested in several hotel com 1 panies in this country.
 1 Ignacio- Montalyo, brother of Juan | L. Montalvo, Cuban Minister of the 1 Irter1or, is the President of the 1 Compania Balnearia de San Diego. | The Vice President is pr. Frederico 1 Torralbas, former Minister of Sani- l tation. ! E. s. Azpiazu, private secretary to 1 President Menocal, who was at the 1 Waldorf-Astoria yesterday, confirmed

St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, Dec. 29. United States marines garrisOning these new possessions of Uncle Sam cannot understand the fashions af- fected by the natives. Why 8 negro or Cha-Cha Indian should wear an oyercoat when the thermometer stands at 100 in the shade mystifies them.
 For some strange reason, the na- tive Virgin Islander believes in wear ing every article of clothing he can lay hands on. All American holidays are now celebrated by the natives who spend the day parading about the streets, some of them wearing overcoats, capes, two or more pairs of trousers and a red bandanna handkerchief about the neck Also they frequently adorn themselves with the horns of cows or oxen at tached to the head just in frrnt O the ears.
