Automobile Clubs of Uruguay
and America to ReciproCate

WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
Sept. 6.-Reciprocal relations
will be arranged between the
Automobile Club of Uruguay
and the American Automobile
association, as a result of a
conference today at the ma
tional headquarters of the A.
A. A., between its president,
David Jameson, and the duly
accredited delegate of the
Uruguayan organization, Ma
tea A. Frugoni, who also
brought with him the creden-
tials of the Uruguayan gov
eminent itself.
Mr.. Frugoni. In suggesting an un-
derstanding between the y 6. OF
Uruguay and the 4. A. A" predicted
that there was bound 10 be an In
creasing exchange OF motorist visi.
tors by the United states and the
South American countries, and par
ticularly the one which he repre-
sented.
Mr.. FruRoni suggested that the
reciprocal arrangements be such that
the Automobile club OF Uruguay
would be appointed the sole repre-
sentative OF the a. A. a. In his
country and the American Automo'
bile association would be the sole
representative OF the a. G. u, In
this country. Any member OF the
a. a. A. in Uruguay will be granted
the same rights as those given to
a. c. u. In the United States.

across soft fields. In one such case
the entire train OF trucks was sen,
into a huge field where sheaf oatt
were loaded on the trucks and hauled
to the thraAher. The farmer whose
grain was thus handled tried TO pay
for the service rendered. but was
told the truck tourists were only too
glad TO provo the value OF truck

pcrity Of the entire community.
At another point on the road
some high. steep. muddy hills were
encountered and a comparative test
was sta ged with the pneumaucs OF
the development tour and solid tired
vehicles which were operated by a
commercial company on haul be-
tween cities In the lowa-lllinois'
Wisconsin triangle. The Highway
Transport company has been oper'
ating a fleet OF solid tire trucks
from Dubuque TO nearby cities in
the tri.state region, and the devel'
opment tour figures showed the
pneumatic tire had covered the
ground in faster time. with less diff
ficulty on the steep muddy hills than
the trucks OF the commercial com
pany. only ono of the development
tour trucks put on chains. and this
as an experiment.
Up In Dakota farmer asked for
chance TO speak n moment while

but was granted. and the farmer
said he had found IL necessary to
buy n large quantity of tile. He was
making three trips day. 2S miles
for each round trip. with n ton load
OF tile. while In the old days his
horses could make only one such
trip.
one notable demonstration was a
test trip OF the entire fleet from
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, with a cargo
OF about 2s tons OF wholesale groc-
cries for distribution to dealers in
small cities on tho right OF way.
This shipment was made largely by
a company which had believed that
such shipments by truck were not
feasible, and that rail was the best
method. Five companies cooper
ated and took extensive sets OF fig.
ures as To cost of operation and
other expenses, to compare with
present methods OF distribution. The
figures were convincing TO motor
truck men, naturally, and II is said
that the demonstration at once
brought the jobber into negotiations
for trucks for its own use. Seeing

highway transport was in this case

NEW ROADS
FOR FREIGHT

WASHINGTON. ID. C.. Sept. g.
Freight roads and passenger roads
are probabilities OF the compare
lively near future in congested sec
lions Of the country. according 10
Chairman George c. Diehl OF the
A. A. a, good roads board. who
has sent communication 20 this
effect TO the office OF the chief OF
engineers Of the war department,
In response TO a communication
from Gen. W. ~. Black. Mr.. Diehl
thus comments on the up-to-date
highways problem:
There will never be n time when
all roads are of equal durability
and carrying capacity. Highways
and railroads are analogous, In
that they are both designed TO car
ry traffic and general rules which
have been developed thru scien-
tific management of railroads APP
ply as well almos, invariably TO
highways. The heaviest locomo-
tlves and rolling stock are carried
on roads like the New York Cen
trail and Pennsylvania and Union
Pacific. Their use over lighter con-
structed railroads would ruin tho
roads in a comparatively brief
period.
There must come n classified
ton Of highways over Glass {.
the heaviest motor trucks and
trailers would be permitted; each
truck should have large figures
conspicuously placed on the sides
TO indicate the total weight that II
was permitted to carry; operators
and owners OF the trucks should
be prosecuted for using the heavi-
est trucks on roads designed for
lighter traffic. II would be COM
paratively simple TO enforce such
provisions. as there seems to be
no defense OF the proposition of
permitting one or two heavy trucks
to ruin an investment of many
thousand dollars on the lighter
constructed highways.
AT road intersections, tho high
way capacity could be indicated.
as the highway department should,
believe, have traffic depart
ment under a chief traffic engineer,
having 20 do, not with construc-
ton and maintenance. but merely
with tho control OF traffic. II is
extremely likely that II would re-
suit ultimately In system OF
freight roads and passenger roads.
and that wider and parallel roads
would be found TO be the most eco
nomical method of laying out the
highway system.
ut is impossible to lay out all
roads OF the heavy form OF con-
struction; In the first place, the
money Is not available, and. sec
ondly, too many years would elapse
before the more sparsely settled
sections of the country were de-
veloped. Ii would not be at all diff
ficult to break bulk when leaving
the heavy traffic roads. and in a
comparatively brief time an OK
cellent theory of highway con-
struction would be developed where
by each locality would be able to
determine the amount Il was feasa-
Bile for them to expend ON each
mile OF highway construction"
