AUSTRALIANS THINK
j. U.S.A. LITTLE ISLE

SYDNEY, N. s. W., Nov. S.--(A' 70
-"Abysmal" ignorance about Austra-
liza was found in the United States by
Professor r. D. Watt of the syaney
University who recently returned from
an eight months tour of the United
States, Canada and England.
"They usually spoke of Australia IN
the United States as little island
and were amazed when told that the
area of Australia was greater than
that of the United sites" Professor
Watt said.
"a wrong impression Of Australia. IS
conveyed by the newspapers OF Canada
and America. One would imagine
from the newspapers that this was a
land of strikes and droughts. America
and Canada both have these things
but do not advertise them throughout
the world as we do"
Professor Watt said he found la
Dor shortage in Canada and America,
with domestic servants practically un-
procurable. "This has driven many
neople who would prefer TO have their
| own homes into lldtS anu hVeS'o' Nv
added. "a feature of the flats is the
great number of labor saving devices
to overcome the problems Of domestic
help.
High wages rule but the cost ol
living Is very much in excess of that IN
Australia" he continued. "a double
room In any good hotel IN America
costs two pounds and upwards pei
day without meals and one cannot ge'
much of a meal under two dollars
They do know how to run hotels. how
ever, and my impression is that sgd
nev could stand really first class no
tel on American lines.'
Australians. he said, have no coneen'
ltion of what winter is like In Canad'
Iand the northern states of America

New Map of New York State
Comes Out in Six Color

Tho American Automobile Associa-
tion has just published a map Of New
York State. in six colors. This map
shows every state road in red and
other colors have been used to desig-
nate the various trunk routes through
out the state, which have been sign
posted by means of color bands painted
on telephone poles.
Another new map which Incorporates
this same useful feature is that of
lower New England, comprising the
states Of Connecticut, Rhode Island
and Massachusetts,. New England is
too large territory to include prop
erly in a single map, but the northern
part is covered in detail by one OF
Vermont and New Hampshire together
and another of Maine.
For New Jersey touring, those roads
which are feasible are shown in great
detail on a new map in four colors, dit.
ferentiating between hard surface
gravel and unimproved dilt roads. 4
transcontinental map in colors is also
ready.

Will Double the Ferry
Service to Oyster Bay
Beginning July I, Boats Will
Ply Between Bayville Beach
and Rye Beach Every Hour

Preparations are being made to
double the Long Island Sound ferry
service between Rye Beach and Oyster
Bay, beginning July /. At present there
is only one boat on this route, leaving
Bayville Beach, Oyster Bay, at 9, 1880,
2, 4:oO and o'clock, and Oakland
Beach, Rye at 10, 1880, 3, $50 and
8 o'clock. With two boats on this
route it mag be possible to have boat

side of the Sound all day long.
The Bridgeport Port Jefferson Ferry
has a capacity of 40 cars and leaves
Bridgeport a. m. and p. m. and
Port Jefferson at II q. m. and 5 p. m.
AS most of the roads near New York
on both sides of the Sound are in
wretched condition and the congestion
on the Greensboro Bridge gets worse
weekly, these Long Island Sound fer
ries are getting more motor traffic this
summer than ever before.

$1,000 Per Mile Boost
In Road Costs Feared
Proposed Freight Rate Increases
for Sand and Gravel Shipments
Attacked by Producers

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Proposed
increases in freight rates on sand and
gravel will result in $1,000 per mile
increase in the cost Of road building.
To-day it costs 81 200 mile more than
it did in 1916 to build road. Another
advance in freight rates at this time
will materially reduce the contemplate
ed construction of roads.
The foregoing reasons were among
many advanced at the convention of
the Advisory Council Of Sand and
Gravel Producers here against the %
cent rate increase proposed for gravel
shipments.
The ratoning Of cars in favor Of the
cNal industry was also attacked, on
the ground that coal producers by
various methods had brought about a
false famine and were using the pres
ent opportunity to boost profits and
'profiteer in shameless manner"

Again the Warning Not
To Reduce Tire Pressure

Reducing air pressure in tires in the
hot summer weather is a fallacy COM
mon among motorists who do not un-
derstand that radiation carries off any
surplus heat that might otherwise be
dangerous to the life of tire.
Even in the terrific grind of the race
track, when tires undergo the most
grueling punishment, this principle
holds. 1t is under-in imitation. even dur
ing the hottest days, that ruins more
tires than any other cause, according
to experts. Recommended AIR PIES
sures are safe even in the summer
By reducing pressure the increased
fexing of the tire merely creates the
condition which the car owner wishes
to guard against. The motorist can

the air pressure in his tires for the
sake Of greatly increased mileage.

Autoists Reminded
OF Preference Rule


Every man who drives car should
bear in mind that in this city north
and south traffic has the right of way
over that flowing east and west A
heavy percentage of the accidents
within the last few weeks has been
Que to non observance or neglect Of
this rule. AS one conscientious auto
mobilist says:
"The motorist who travels east or
west should remember that he has the
lesser right to the road, as against that
if that motorist does not have the
courtesy or good sense to understand
this simple code, you've simply got to
bow to him and permit him to cross.
Motorists must also guard against
the over-indulgence Of the practice of
crowding in ahead of a car speeding in
front"
