 LETTER ABOUT FRANCE

New York, Nov. 22.-y. Coyimzoglu, a Greek importer who claimed to have held contract to supply the British army in Mesopotamia during the World war, today addressed a public letter to New York newspapers, admitting that he was the man who had attempted to address question to M. Clemenceau from an upper balcony of the Metropoli- tan Oper House last night.
 1 felt very indignant to hear MT. Clemenceau claim that France is the liberator of European countries, when it is an acknowledged fact that France allied herself and armed the bloody Turk and helped him kill all Christians in Asia 1 Minor, against her promise to 1iberate
 these people" said the letter. "Any l honest mans blood would boil at sim liar hypocrisy. s'-
 The letter added:

Road "hogs' are going to be very
mer.
Officials Of the Automobile Club of
Southern California have received so
many complaints from motorists in re-
gard to the "hoggish' - tendencies of a
certain class of drivers on the roads of
Southern California during the summer
months, that some action against such
drivers is to be recommended.
The road hog is said to be that type
of driver who propels his car along
the center Of the highway at a slow
pace and refuses to pull over to the
right to let any vehicle pass him.
Another type of "hog'' is said by
Auto club officers to be one who passes
"a ear at rapid pace and then slows
up suddenly in front Of the car he has
just passed.
One type is as bad as another, say
local authorities, and where accidents
are caused by this kind of malicious
practise the prosecution will be ex-
tremely severe.
Courtesy on the roads is to be a slo-
gan of the auto club this summer as il
has been in the past, with the addition
al activity of instilling courtesy rules
in the minds of motorists who evidence
no consideration for other drivers on
the boulevards.
1t is suggested that all California
auto owners operate their vehicles in
such manner as, to make good i'm
preston upon the thousands of visitors
here at this time from other states,
and not to let them think we are a
parcel of road "grabbers.
Complacent residents of southern and
central California are getting Jared
out of their somnolence by eastern re-
ports in regard. to the undesirable con
dition Of the western ends Of the great
.transcontinental highways, according
to report just issued by the auto club.
Sleepy tendencies on the part of
those who use local boulcvards and do
not give thought to the bad impress
ions received by all visitors entering
the state over the routes leading here
from the middle west hark back to the
times of the Dons, it is pointed out by
those who have the welfare Of motoring
interests at heart.
Letters are pouring in to the Automo-
bile Club of Southern California from
every point in the United States to the
tune of so a day in regard to touring
information on the highways leading
across the continent, and practically
every letter mentions the fear of the
writer in regard to the California por
tions of the transcOntinental roads.
Ry the end of the wear there will
have been $4,000 visiting motor parties
arriving in Southern California.
This number would be almost doubled
