.FlRST-CLASS SPARE TIRE
ALWAYS NEEDED ON TRIPS
For Economy This Should Be Care
fully Protected From
Weather.

Why spoil the pleasure of a motor
trip by setting off on a jaunt without
spare tire: With a view to econ
omy many drivers are carrying no
spares today. but it Is a form of
economy that does not pay. A spare
tire of good quality is one Of the alb
solute essentials for a CART is the
tire you depend on to bring you home
The spare ought to be covered to
protect it from the effects of sunlight
and heat. says the United States Tire
Company. Sunlight has a bad effect
on rubber even in the coolest weather,
for it produces "cracking" or
Checking" on the surface which rap
idly extends to the interior, causing
deterioration. Heat has an even more
destructive effect. Spares sometimes
are carried uncovered near the ex-
haust. This is poor practice IL the
heat strikes an uncovered tire
directly.

BY THEODORE p. MOVES.

Commissioner James F. Oyster has
the whole-hearted support of every
thinking motorist in the city in his
efforts to eliminate the hacking nui-
sance on Pennsylvania avenue be-
tween 14th and 18th streets In, front
of the Willard Hotel
The Commissioners edict, handed
down last week, which restricts the
hackers to the south side Of the Ave-
nue.. was welcomed by a long-suffer-
ing public. This same Iong-suffering
public would probably also welcome
the total adjustment of the hack stand
at that point.
Pennsylvania avenue, particularly
in the crowded block between 14th
and 18th streets. is not the place for
a hackers rendezvous. With the dou-
BILE car tracks and the traffic conges-
tion, there is not enough room for a
stand of this sort. where the cars sell
dom remain in one position and are
constantly endangering the lives and
property of private car owners.
Every motorist in Washington un-
doubted1y has had the experience OF
driving through this block and having
one or more hackers suddenly shoot
out either blocking his way entirely
or giving him palpitation of the heart
at the narrowness of his escape from
a collision
Warnings Ignored
For many months nothing was done
to remedy the situation. Then the
parking space was entirely restricted
by the police department. 1t was the
subject of favorable comment on all
sides, but it 1eSsened only to a small
degree the dangers Of the block, and

WORK FIRST ASKED
Senator Townsend Urges
Concentration of Fed
? eraI Aid Money.

Concentration of federal aid money
upon the most important state roads
which have an interstate character is
the next logical step in cooperation
with the several states in highways
Improvement" is the assertion of
Senator Charles E Townsend. chair
man of the Senate committee on post
offices and post roads
That Congress undoubtedly will
give comprehensive attention to the
good roads subject in the present ses-
reference set forth in President Hard
fng's message. That the federal
agency of administration should be
elevated to the Importance and vested
with authority comparable to the
work before it, is proposition
erai approval from those who have
truly at heart consistent good roads
progress. Highways now concern FIVE
branches of our government, and there
should be a distinct authority which
can deal with all departments and
possess an independence of procedure.
No longer can this work be accomlish-
a single department. Transportation
is the lffe Of the nation, and travel
able highways facilitate the daily ac-
tivities OF millions Of American
families.
CaIls for State Funds.
Money from the national treasury
expended in cooperation with the
states properly calls for state and
not county dollars, and the joint
funds should have to do with the
most important highways possessing
both fntrastate and interstate sig
nificance. 1t is my thought that at a
later day. when federal commits

was not satisfactory to the motoring
public as q whole. .-..
Finally came Commissioner Oysters
drastic order the other day, which was
given only after the most careful con-
sideration and study Of the question.
These men have been given every
chance to make good. They have been
cautioned time and time again that *
their present tactics were kept up
steps would be taken to eliminate
them from the Avenue. But these
warnings were never made good until
the Commissioner learned first hand
of the conditions. .
And with the issuing of the order
the Commissioner made plain to the
hackers that they were still on trial,
with the restricted parking space.
Parking is allowed only on the south
side of the Avenue. in front of the
Willard, and abuse of this privilege
is sure to result in it's speedy cancel
lation by Commissioner Oyster.
A Better Location.
AS suggested in The Star on pre-
vious occasions. 14th street opposite
the Willard. between the Avenue and
F street, would be far better place
for hack stand than the center Of
the street parking on the Avenue.
The hackers should be compelled TO
park at a 45-degree angle to the curb.
backed in, and stay there until they
secure a fare. This place is just as
convenient for the patrons Of the Will
lard who use the cabs and it elimi-
mates entirely 'Tbeat-'em- to it and
get-the-fare" tactics employed on the
Avenue.
No one wishes to deprive the pub
lie hacker of his means Of livelihood,
but the business must be conducted
in a manner conducive to smooth run
ming traffic on the streets.

Santa Monica and in the world of auto

Vanderbilt cup. Every one remembers
the tremendous excitement that attend
ed the early races on Long Island for
the Vanderbilt cup. when great crowds
lined the roads before daybreak to see

In state after state we have
progressed from state aid to the

county highways; and we are now
seeking a form of federal aid to the
several states directed toward inter

may be included in national system
The Presidents insistence that
positive provision for maintenance
shall be made for roads on which
federal money is expended will find
unqualified approval from all road
users. Since all states impose "a
yearly registration tax upon the own
