WASHINGTON. Jan. 15-C. T. Til- den. professor of engineering mechan- ics at Yale university, and one of the best known engineering educators in the United States. has been named director of the work of the highway transport education committee with Headquarters here. He will take sup his new duties at once and will pro- ceed to formulate and to suggest a comprehensive program for courses in highway and highway transport ed- ucation.
 The new committee is tho outgrowth of a conference on these subjects held in Washington last May at the call of the commissioner of education. Its work has been defined by the commit tee as the compilation of ail data re- lating to the economic field of high way transport and the distribution thereof to all interested. As phase of this, conferences are being held by the committee at different universities. The next will take place at Michigan, Feb. 23.

Illustration Engineer InSpectS Chevrolet
 California Plant

c. w. Moore, one of the leading auto motive engineers in Perth. Western Australia, who recently arrived in the United States to inspect the leading automobile factories of this country, made his first official inspection at the factory of the Chevrolet Motor Company of California.
 Moore stated that he observed more automobiles on Market street. San Francisco. Cal, than he had ever seen in the whole of Australia.
 With gasoline selling at a dollar a gallon and small automobiles bringing over a thousand dollars each in the second hand market motoring is a lux ury in the antipodes.
 When informed that a majority of the mechanics at the Chevrolet factory owned and drove their own cars, the visitor was astounded.
 After making a thorough inspection of California's only automobile fac tory. Mr. Moore left for San Francisco Go join a party of Australians who are touring the United States.

mate showed that the personnel of the committee had collectively Jurisdiction over the expenditures of considerably more than a quarter of billion dollars for highways.
 All of the decisions were unanimous, with the exception of the total travel upCa which the specifications are pred icated. in which one member dlssenteds and the item number 12 predicatlng specifications upon regulation Of mo- tor truck design, to which one member dissented.
 It should be noted that the width ot right -of- way decided upon, ]. e. 100 feet, is above that in general use at this time. It is also Interesting to note that the board of engineers passing upon this question has arbitrarily as sumed that the limits of highway de- sign can be drawn at total traffic density per day of 10000 mixed passen- ger and freight vehicles and that when traffic passes this point 1t is desirable to construct another paralleling road, rather than to increase the width or strength of the existing road to the end of concentrating the additional travel upon it.
 | The unanimous agreement of the | technical committee upon the necessity of submerged drain tile and catch basins. rather than the prevalent open ditch, is of considerable importance as l indicating a feeling on the part of these
 highway engineers that the open ditch ! will ultimately be eliminated on all main routes of travel.
 The unanimous decision that the Ideal Section should be lighted is alsc of great interest to those forward looking highway administrators .who are now giving careful consideration tc the problems which will develop during the next ten years.
 One of the most important matters to be decided upon by the Ideal Sec ton committee, and which must pre- cede any construction, is the question of cross section design, i. e. the number and arrangement of traffic lanes to bt provided on the Ideal Section. This
 was practically the only point upor
 which disagreement was encountered some of the engineers feeling that tn,
 construction of a three traffic -lant pavement, say 27 feet wide would b.

AUTO CLUB IF : MEXICO SEEKS

WASHINGTON D. C., Jan. 15-In- quiry has been received by the Amer ican Automobile association from the Automobile club of Mexico as to at- fihation. The communication from Mexico City is the result of a recon 2 mendation by the Automobile club Of Ialisco. which has it's headquarters in Guadalajara and has been an A. A. A. member for years.
 The Fl Paso Automobile club has y,resented repeatedly to the Mexican Government the value of a highway fo the Mexican capital as a means of creating a great volume of intene- tional road travel and also serving to soIidifv relations between the two countries.
 since the A. A. A. has accepted clubs fron New Brunswick and Mexico, it is assumed that the application from Mexico City will receive favorable consideration. Among the severa hundred clubs fin the A. A. A. list is tht Hawaii Automobile club ot lilo, ad- ded during the past year.

Announcement from Washington that large American industries. once firm advocates of prohibitive tariffs, are now turning to a policy of free trade reaffirms the earlier reports that automobile manufacturers were seek ing lower tariff schedules on American automobiles and new commercial treaty agreements with other coun- tries.
 In fact. action was taken on this matter as far back as last October, at a convention in New York of the export managers of the national cham Der of commerce. At that time it was decided to bring the matter before congress. so that a reduction of schedules on imports may result in more friendly attitude toward Ameri can shipping by other nations.
 In spite of the high duties charged against American cars, our exports of cars and trucks have been constantly on the increase since the armistice. It is believed that the measures advo- cated will serve still further to pro- mote foreign trade and thereby main tain stable business conditions. Ex port business cannot be expanded un less imports are likewise promoted, and it is the foreign market that the automobile and other industries are turning to.
 Reciprocal commercial treaties. in place of a protective tariff. are what the industries are now seeking. Ac- cording to Louis Demeratzky, tariff chief of the U. s. bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. "the more barriers that are removed and the more opportunity given for everyone to develop. the better it will be for our commercial relation.
 The exchange of favors need not necessarily be between the automobile industry Of one country and the auto mobile industry of another, but na- tions who do not make cars could give a favorable tariff to American auto mobiles in return for consideration by us of some of the products which | they export"

CONGRESS FAVORS
 INTERSTATE ROAD
 APPROPR RIAT|ONS

WASHINGTON. D. C., Jan. 15-If the present congress should appro- priate any money under the provisions of what is known as the Federal Aid Road Act, the opinion prevails here that the expenditure of the joint fed eral and state money would be con fined to highways of an interstate character. The house is more likely to favor an appropriation than the sen ate. as there is an undoubted demand from congressional districts in not a few states for more money from the federal treasury with which to com plete road projects already approved.
 While one can appreciate the an- xiety on the part of highway off cials in certain states to obtain needed money from the federal treasury" 1" comments Chairman George c. Diehl of the A. A. A. good roads board, "the plain facts in the case are1 that any further money from the control source demands national use in its applica- tion. Exactly as states first gave aid to counties and then accepted a defi- mite state system of inter county roads, the next cooperation to the states from the federal government
 ought to have a distinct connection
 with an interstate plan of big high | ways such as is outlined in the l Townsend bill that has the support l of farm organizations, business asso- | ciations. and the motor vehicle road users"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-More than 50 per cent of all vehicles in the postal service are motor driven, according to statement in the annual report Of Postmaster General Burleson, issued here.
 The report states that more motor cars are speeding up the delivery Of United States mails than ever before. The report states further that motor service has been established in 16S cities and that cars and trucks ara being used on S93 rural mail routes.
 "The efficiency of the government owned motor vehicle service was dem onstrated when unusual conditions de- veloped in a number of the larger cities as a result of severe storms. strikes of express and railway employees and for other causes" states the report.
 Bad roads are given as the cause why more rural routes have not been motorized.

DIST TR|BU T|ON
 OF WEIGHT IS B|G
 DESIGN PROBLEM

Of the many problems met in auto mobile design that of weight distrib- ution Is not the least important, nor is it one that has received the fullest measure of attention on the part of the designer. says a writer in Amer ican Motorist.
 Like all the tasks imposed by mod tern automobile construction, weight distribution must be largely a matter of compromise. In this respect the problem resembles that involved in spring design. in which becomes evil dent the difficulty of providing a spring that will give full resilency un- der an empty body as well as under one that is loaded down to its full rated capacity. Similarly, weight distribu- tion becomes a somewhat complex proposition when 1t is considered that it Is impossible to distribute the dead weight of an automobile in such a manner that the mechanical equilib- rum will not be interfered with when the car is run with load or with out one.
 These questions however, while in teresting to the engineer, are of less importance to the average automobile user. except in the relation they bear to his tire consumption. Here, too, 1t is impossible to strike a fair mean. 1t is out of the question to secure for one tire as little wear as is encoun- tered in the other, even though all four tires be of uniform quality and structure.
 Oven in a car carrying the greater part of it's weight In front, the great CT wear is borne by the rear tires It must be remembered in this con- nection that the propulsion of mo- n kN~N s.a h horse drawn vehicle, in that the lat ter is pulled over the road while tho former is pushed along by the active effort transmitted to the rear or drive wheels. In consequence of the driv ing stresses. the rolling friction of thu road and the slippage that is abso lutelv unavoidable, the tires of the rear wheels encounter most of the wea to which the automobile tires are reg ularly subjected.
 As far as the weight of the car it self is conc ned, regardless of its dis tribution, it is common experience tha the lightest car produces the smalles tire bills. The fact is that the life of tire fs proportional to the cube of tn load 1t supports, so that if the loa be doubled the average wear and tea on the tire will be multiplied by eigh
 There are oEher points worthy of at tention in considering tire wear, som of them having to do with the man ner in which such units as power plaI and transmission are supported. some constructions road shocks ar more readily absorbed by the frame work and suspension means which aC comnodate themselves more or le: to the distortions to which the ir equalities of the road surface gay rise.
