CALIFORNIA MOTOR LAWS

The new laws pertaining to motor
vehicles which go into effect in California
an September 1st, 1928, and February 1st,
1924, are attracting considerable favorable
comment throughout the country. They
are the outcome of much discussion and
forethought by many organizations, such
as county boards, farm bureaus, traffic Of
fcers' associations and automobile clubs,
whose representatives appeared at the
meetings of legislative committees during
the formulation of the bills.
Based on the fundamental principle that
those who use the highways should pay
for their building and upkeep and that the
fuel used is the truest indication of high
way use, two cents per gallon gasoline
tax is to go into effect September 1st, 1928.
There will also be registration fee of
$500 per vehicle for all classes of cars
and trucks and super-registration tax
ranging from $1,000 to $4,000 for auto
busses and truck lines operating for profit.
1t is expected that the gasoline tax will
bring in $11, 100000 and the registration
fees about $5,OOO,OOO, making a total
revenue for 1924 of about $16,O0O,000, TO
be divided between the state and the var
ious counties for their road programs.
There are included in other sections of
the bill some drastic restrictions on the
speed of heavily loaded trucks and also
the weight to be carried per wheel by
trucks and trailers as it is felt that such
vehicles moving at high speeds are par
ticularly destructive to the highways.
The speed limit regulations for passen-
ger cars are interesting and provide brief
ly a limit of fifteen miles per hour in
business district, at obstructed grade rail-
way crossings, passing school zones, ETC.,
limit of twenty miles per hour in resi-
dental districts and limit of thirty-fve
miles per hour esewhere.-Ex.

DON'T BE COWARDLY

He who fears criticism is hopeless. Only
those who do things are criticized. The
idler is lost sight of in. the march of
events, but the doer is watched-and crit
icised. To hesitate for fear of criticism
loses the battle while the doors march on
to victory and triumph. Indecision is a
great harbinger; but to hesitate for fear
of criticism is cowardly. If your cause is
right, be not afraid of criticism; advocate
it, expound it, and, if need be, fight for it.
Critics always have been and always will
be, but to the strong-minded they are a
help rather than hindrance. AS the
horse sprints forward when prodded with
the spur, so the doers forge ahead under
the lash of criticism. Take your part on
life's stage and play your part to the end;
stand for that which is good; be doer,
not drone; look the world in the face
and let the critics criticise-Ea.
