Mountain Link of
Mohawk Trail Is
To Be Constructed
Plans Made for a New Ave.
nue. in the Berkshires
From West and Scenic
Road of Great Beaut%

An announcement of more than ordi-
nary interest to automohilists of both
Ess. and West is that plans have been
advanced for the completion of ten
mile stretch of new road from Peters
burg. ". Y, to Williamstown. Mass.
over Petersburg Mountain, in the Berk-
shires Aside from the scenic view
which q trip over this missing link
OF the old Mohawk Trail will provide.
shc construction Of the mountain road
in reality opens a new route into the
Berkshires from the West and, on the
other hand, supplies new outlet from
the Berkshires to Central New York.
The advantages of this plan were
brought home to party of New York
automobile men, newspaper men and
officials of the Automobile Club Of
America who went over the road last
week. It was agreed that the COM
pietion OF the link would add greatly
to the vacation or tourist value of the
Berkshire section

Uniform Law for Headlight
Glare Is Much Needed

Uniform action by the several states
in the handling of the headlight glare
problem is clearly indicated. Under
the Wisconsin law, for instance. no
certificate of. approval for devices is
issued. The Industrial Commission Of
the state has the right to formulate
and put into effect, upon thirty days
notice, any restrictions upon motor
cars that it sees fit.
Under this law a spotlight on a car
is illegal unless the bracket is so ar
ranged that the light cannot be thrown
more than thirty feet directly in front
of the car. The specifications oriei-
nally classed any kind of q controlla Bic
head lamp as a spotlight
The New Jersey law provides that
any head lamp controllable from the
drivers seat so as to cause any Of the
projected rays of light or cone of light
to rise above forty-two inches from the
ground fifty feet in front of the car !,
unlawful.
Every device used in New Jersey is
tested out at night by two inspectors
of the Motor Vehicle Department and
is then passed on by the Commissioner

Truck Contest Is
Halted by Strikes
First National Demonstration of
Machine Reliability Is In.
definitely POSTPONED

a combination of circums instances has
MADE 1t necessary for the promoters of
the first national motor truck relia-
bllity, contest to postpone indefinitely
the demonstration of truck reliability
whlch w'1 was planned to circle the money
peit OF the Middle West in June and
July of this year. ~ q ''0
For some time the material situation
mas eeen a serious handicap to all
manufacturers connected with the auto.
motive industry. Coupled with this
the the switchmen,s strike has created a
congestion of railroad terminals
throughout the country which is No not II
yet relieved and which may continue
for months to come.
1t is possible, although not probable
that conditions will readjust them,
selves sufficiently to permit HOLDING
the contest in the fall; AS the mate

This new stretch of road was a part
of the Mohawk Trail when the latter
served as q route for the annual mi
grafton of the 1rouuois tribes TO the
lowlands and coast of Massachusetts.
When completed it will provide di-

Troy,
Highway Commissioner Greene Of
New York State has promised to have
the five mile piece Of road extending
from Petersburg to point lust over
the summit of Petersburg Mountain
completed within twenty-f9ur months.
The remaining stretch, witch lies in
Massachusetts, Is to be built from a
special appropriation which the Legis-
iature OF that state is expected to
grant at its next session. Active in
pushing the new route are residents
and various other Berkshire interests
which have been so largely responsible
for the present fine system of high
ways in that section.
Pending the completion of the link
the gravel road from Alps to Williams,
town, via Hancock, offers an excellent
route for reaching Williamstown from
either Troy or Albany. This stretch
of road has just been widened and re-

Jersey Commission
Asks Higher Fees

The State Highway Comnaission OF
New Jersey IN resolution calls upon
the Governor. Legislature and boards
of freeholders of the various counties
to secure the passage of laws which
will restrict the size and weight Of
motor trucks allowed to operate upon
the states highways. In addition they
are asked to urge legislation increas-
ing the annual registration fees OF
motor trucks "to amounts more nearly
commensurate with the damage done
by such vehicles to said highway
The commission pointed out that
heavy and overloeae1 trucks "are
largely responsible for the wesr and
tear on the highways, and that the
present licensed rates "are noticeably
low when compared with the fees
charged by other states"

Tractor and Trailer Are
BOons to Distribution

The advent of the tractor and trailer
is one indication that industrial need al.
ways produces the means to fulfill it. n.
Eltinge Breed, former Deputy Commits
sioner of the New York State Highway
Commission, said, in an address at the
annual meeting of the National High
way Traffic Association in this city. He
said:
"There are registered in the country
to-day $4,000 = tralers, and their
increase in the last two years
has been more than LOG per cent. At
this rate of increase 100000 tractors
and trailers can be planned by the year
1880. The crux of the economic situa-
ton in the country to-day is distribu-
ton, even more than production. The
motor truck and the tractor and trailer
have been developed to meet the needs
of distribution.
"Much as we need distribution. we
need, even more, economy in distribu-
ton. 1t is appalling to realize that we.
as consumers, pay from three to ten
times the actual cost of the finished
article, be it manufactured or natural
product. Whatever effects a saving in
cost to the consumer is national boon
Motor power for short haul freight does
effect such a saving.
