racing car successfully produced in t..e

Selling it to Barney Oldfield, king of

maker broke the one mile dirt track
record and right there, was born the
idea that has now expanded into a

Los ANCELES--MURRY
STARTS MAY II
THIS YEAR

LOS ANGELES, April 22.-With the
request for sanction from the Amer
lean Automobile Association which was
mailed this week, plans are well under
way for the staging of the famous an
nual Los Angeles Camp Curry economy
run. May 1918 has been set as the
date for the run this year, which is
the seventh successibe year the big
economy contest has been held. The
annual test between this city and the
famous Yosemite camp has become the
most widely recognized event of its
sort staged in the United States, and
its outcome is watched with keen in
terest not only in California but all
over the United States.
The nature of the road to be covered
and the conditions of the contest make
it real test of the economy Of the
competing ears. The first day S con
troll between Los Angeles and Fresno
is a distance of 240 miles and must bt
| covered in ten hours, or an average
speed of "a miles an hour, which means
| that the cars must be driven at {
normal touring speed in order to make
the control within the allotted time
| The average for the second day, whicl
includes the stiff climb into the Sier
ras is of course not nearly so fast, but
nevertheless is speedy enough. The
steep grades preclude any possibility OF
"jockeying the car and the result is
an out and test of the economy of the
competing cars.
A change has been made in the rules
this year to prevent the necessity OF
four and six cylinder cars competing il
| the same division. Though skies have
occasionally in the past won over four'
costing less than $4,000 to compete only
with other fours.
In addition to these five classes
| there will of course be the. usual sweep
stakes for the car that regardless OF
class, makes the best showing on ten
miles per gallon of gasoline. The ton
mileage is determined as follows:
Total weight of car and load in tons
times the number of miles driven, di
vided by the number of gallons of gaso
line consumed.

A bulletin received today at the Ell
Centre office of the Auto club of South
era California, advises the opening OF
statewide campaign to war on reck-
less and incompetent motorists, move
ment with which the Auto club is IL
perfect harmony, and with which it
intends to cooperate to the fullest e&-
tent.
Administrators of justice in practi-
callv every county have decided that
the day of the reckless and incompetent
motor pest is over, and that there is to
be a general tightening up of speed
and traffic regulations in all districts.
Jail sentences instead of fine Will be
civen for motorists exceeding the speed
laws or found guilty of traffic viola
tions, and indications are that it will
not paw to get reckless on California
highways in the future.
This action is being taken chiefly Ill
the interest of tourists and the counties
in that section of the state covered by
the Auto Club of Southern California
are cooperating with the county OIL
cials to the end that tourists from othes
parts of the state, and from nearby
states will not be subjected to needless
risk and exposure to accidents While III
this section of the country.
To promote this campaign OF safety
| motorists are being asked to sigr

nroye that they mean what they say
they are mounting green and Whltt

cided that the day of the reckless motor
ing pest is over. Word has been re-
ceived at the various auto club offices
that there is to be n general Tightening
up of speed regulations in all districts.
1t is likely that Jail sentences will be
given for rate of speed exceeding 40
miles an hour instead of so as at pres
ent. Heavy fines for motorists are to
become the order of the day. 1t will
cost hard money to get reckless on
Southern California roads in the future.

ious courts is being taken in the interest
of touring in the southern part of the

TRUCKS IN SERVICE
NUMBER NEARLY
MILLION

According to Lewis II. Smith, general
counsel for the California Motor Trans
port Association, in 1903 there were no
motor trucks. In 1904 there were pro.
duced All motor trucks; in 1911 the
yearly production had grown to about
IL 900; 900 were manufactured in
1920, and today there are in service
something over 100000. He says:
g 1t is the policy of this association
that the motor truck, together with all
users of the highways, should pay its
proper proportion of the construction.
maintenance and repair thereof due to
such user. Exactly what that proper
tion should be we cannot determine.
but it is one of the problems on which
we are gathering data and are prepar.
ing TO work out in conjunction with
the highway officials and their engi
neers.
Experience has shown that capacity
loads must be carried if the greatest
economy and efficiency in Transports
tion is to be maintained, that is, the
maximum capacity commensurate with
the strength and life of highways.
Highways, in my opinion, should be
constructed with respect to the neeessi-
ties and demands of traffic, and traffic
should not be permanently limited or
cntailed by insufficient highways.
''To destroy or impair the efficiency
of what we have would be worse than
folly, but we must always bear in mind
that the highways should be the SER
want of transportation and not its
master. In other words highways must
be built of such strength and durabil-
ity as to sustain that weight of load
that can be carried most economically

The esteem in which educational circles
hold the touring fatalities. of Southern

in the southern part of the state.
When the cornerstone was laid, tour
ing literature of all kinds was put with

RUBBER CASES FOR
RADIO BATTERIES

The more experienced an amature
radio operator you are, particularly the
more frequently you use your set in
the parlor when polished floors and ex-
pensive furniture abound, the closer
you should keep a bottle of diluted
ammonia solution and an old clotA.
This is particularly so if you use a
storage battery that has a wooden
case since acid is practically certain
to be splashed over the sides and soak
into the case or run down upon the
table or floor. Under such circum-
stances a quick application of ammonia
or baking soda solution will neutralize
the acid and prevent stains upon the
woodwork
