fication is the requirement that the
number plate carrier be submitted
with tail lamp, otherwise 1t would
be impossible to assure that the
plate would be 80 placed as to re-
ceive the illumination. II does not
seem necessary to go further into
details, as the specification viii
probably be widely published and
Before adopting this specification
the committee passed resolution
to call the attention of the State
authorities to the fact that no sys-
tenn would prove generally salts
factory without a standardization
of the dimensions of number plates
and the selection of characters and
coIors which could be read with =
reasonable illumination. Certain
fairly definite recommendations
were made in this connection.
It is not possible to foresee all
conditions that may arise, but the
problem of the tail light appears
fairly simple. no delicate adjust
naent being involved. Therefore, 1t
is believed that the situation will
be satisfactorily taken care of by
providing proper equipment. Pre-
sumably the notorist pays as usual,
but in this case the cost is Under
stood to be quito low, while the
necessity Is clearly evident.
One problem which is assuming
greater Importance and will demand
more attention Iii the future, Is the
lighting practice to be followed on
very heavily travelled interurban
highways. With great congestion
of travel, the multiplicity Of strong
headlights becomes seriously oh
jectionable. After careful observa.
ton and study number OF illumi'
The Washington times., 1923-04-15

mating engineers became convinced
several wars ago that there was
no probd ility OF finding . method
of head-lighting which would ade-
ouately meet these conditions, with.
out additional aid.
We became thoroughly convinced
that the best method or meeting
this problem was by a system OF
lighting permanently installed along
the highway. With such a system
the light sources could be placed
high. out OF the ordinary range OF
vision, SO as TO avoid glare. With
dark and glossy pavements. where

objects can be revealed by the high.
way lighting in silhouette against
the CLINT on the pavement. The
principal objection to such p system
was its high cost. We, therefore,
urged upon street lighting equip
l.ment engineers the development Of
more economical units, applicable
To- such service.
Highway lighting units have now
been constructed and tried out more
extensively in practical service. In
witnessing some Of the first demon
strations, it was observed that the
motorists almost invariably dimmed
their headlights, following the prac-
tice found SO satisfactory in iliunni-
mated streets. Quite d number of
highway installations are now In
satisfactory operation, and 1t is be-
lieved that this method viii extend
rapidly where the density Of traffic
warrants the expense.
Cowl lights, dome lights, spot
lights, courtesy lights. 'front.' mark

advantages and their problems. but
The Washington times., 1923-04-15

illumination is enough to warrant
the trouble. Besides that, there is
the satisfaction of giving the other
fellow fair show. The golden rule
works both ways, and when 1t is the
style for everyone to keep his head
lights well adjusted, night driving
win be safer and more pleasant for
ALL With properly adjusted head
lights, there should seldom be occa-
sion for dimming.
From my own experience, It has
been evident that some drivers are
suspicious of any headlight which
throws a good light on the road
ahead. and signal ilnperatively for
dimrning when they could not pos.
sibly be receiving any glare. This
practice will naturally diminish as
proper adjustment becomes more
common. 1t is worth while, how
ever, to discourage 1t, because OF
the hazard, the inconvenience, and
ill-feeling which it creates. The
State Of Connecticut has already
prohibited such dimmfng.
Another phase of lighting prac-
tice which especially merits atten-
ton, is that of the rear or tail
lamp The tail light has two func-
tons, namely, to show red light
to the rear and to illuminate the
rear number plate. The former is
usually adequately performed.
The State laws usually require
the plate illumination to be such
as to render the number legible at
fifty to sixty feet. 1t Is notorious
that this requirement has been al
most universally violated. Some
s,Is tiNy
stopped over 400 ears. and founo
only one with satisfactory registra-
ton plate illumination. It is
strongly suspected that the average
throughout the country may be
worse than these figures indicate.
And yet it is probably more i'm
portant that license numbers be
readable at night than In the day.
time
illogical as this condition Is, IT
does not seem fair to blame any
one group of men. The sizes OF
number plates has been steadily in.
creasing to accommodate the larger
numbers. and no one has seen to 1t
that the tail lamp was changed 20
meet this condition.
Once the question Is raised, it is
unthinkable that the present prac.
tice can endure. Thus, when 1t was
announced that Massachusetts had
passed a law requiring the approval
of rear lamps, it was generally as.
sumed that the enforcement OF
proper number plate illumination
would be taken up in other States.
1t would be very unfortunate ii, as
sometimes happens in hasty legisla-
ton, the requirements Of different
States should not all agree. 1t is
important that one equipment be
acceptable in all parts of the coun,
try.
The Illuminating Engineering So
ciety's Committee on Motor Vehicle
Lighting was invited by one of the
State authorities to propose a speci-
fication. Cooperating with the
Lighting Division of the Standards
Committee of the Society Of Auto
motive Engineers, the problem was
undertaken. Tests and investiga-
tions were run by various experts
over period of several months, and
on the basis Of these, together with
the experience Of the Massachusetts
Registry of Motor Vehicles, q speci-
fication has been drawn. 1t was
discussed at a meeting at which all
the various interests were present
and adopted without one of the
representatives ob1ecting.
