CAUSE CHANGE IN
CALIFORNIA LAWS

Los Angeles. Calf. Aug. 90
Eastern auto tourists feastinE along
the roadsides on California fruits,
threaten to cause q revision Of the
traffic laws in the vicinity OF Los
Angeles.
A curious situation has developed as
result of what are called highway
markets. These are fruit and vege-
table stands scattered throughout the
suburbs on the edges OF orchards and
truck gardens.
The trouble comes from auto parties
stopping on heavily Travelled highways
to purchase the tempting displays
fresh from the fields Congestion and
delay result. especially where the lit
tie markets are opposite each other
as is frequently the case There is nc
law to enforce a motorist to shorten
his stay or move off the road
In the case of repairs on a car, or
other necessities for stopping. the Law
DEGREES that the four wheels of the
car must be off the road In buying
fruit and vegetables, however. the car
may stop as long as the owner desires
in the roadway. The tourists are de-
lighted with the present arrangement
while the natives although not want
ing to displease their guests. are APP
pealing to the Chamber of Commerce
and the Automobile Club of Southern
California for some sort of relief.
