MOTORISTS CLUB
 IS MOUTHPIECE
 FOR AUTOOWNER
Combined Organizations Actively At Work On
 Great Program

The Alabama Motorists association has become the official mouthpiece of Birmingham automobile owners.
 Organized recently as the result of the merger of the Birmingham Auto mobile club and the Birmingham Motor club, the association elected outstand- ing business leaders as its officers and directors, mapped out a comprehensive and quickly took its place as one of the most influential bodies of its kind ill the southern states.
 Paul H. Earle is president and the active head of the association. A. R Pryor and A. Clinton Decker, heads of fie two former organizations, are vice presidents, and Leo K. Steiner is treas urer. Frank F. Spain, Jesse r. Yeates, James Arthur Smith, Ed $. Moore and J. Ed Keith, together with President Earle, form the executive committee.
 Thirty of the Magic City's best known men were elected on the board of directors, and each is taking an ac- tive part in forwarding the associa- tion's activities.
 While Birmingham is the general headquarters of the organization, It's charter gives it the right to establish branches anywhere in Alabama, and expansion work will receive the .atten- tion of the officers and directors at an early date.
 Support Assured.
 The association was launched with the solid support of the memberships of the two old clubs. Large numbers of car owners who have not hitherto been affiliated with any motor club, have enrolled in the new organization, and the membership roster is growing daily.
 A few people believe that a motor club exists merely to dispense road in- formation and give out license plates. These are but small items in the activ-

 Strong standing committees have been appointed by President Earle to go carefully into every phase of every problem that confronts the motorists of this section. The prominence of the leaders of the association and their promptness in demonstrating that they mean business. has won the staunch support of hundreds of car owners who, in the past, have declined to be- come members of clubs.
 Aims of the association are summed up by President Earle thus:

Our efforts will be directed towards assisting in the creation of a national highway system, in solving traffic problems and estab- fishing uniformity of regulations, and in promoting laws that are advantageous to car owners. We propose to assist III placing markers on highways, to collect, compile and distribute up-to-the-minute Information for motorists, to increase tourist travel through this section, to help beautify the public, highways, and to fight for a federal act that will make home registration tags acceptable every where in the country the year round.
