themselves. The sooner he can focus
attention upon the real significance
Of the drift Of events the better 1t will
be for himself, as well as for all con-
cerned. .
Thus in the case of the legislation
advocated by the Car Manufacturers
Association he is losing no time In
directing attention to the real issue.
Briefy, the manufacturers are advo
eating what is known as an impound
ing law whereby cars driven by per
sons conviced Of rsckiessness and mo-
tor crime would be detained in the
local and official pound for what
ever period the court decreed. The
dealers, through their national asso-
citation, loudly condemn this proposal
fact that Cleveland, where an oficiai
pound is conducted, there have been
charges of pilfering OF parts even
while the cars were presumed to be
under police protection.
The motorist is not interested in
the technicalities OF such a proposal
merely in the attitude Of the manu-
facturers. He maintains that such
q proposal is but an outgrowth of
time-honored custom OF placing all
the blame upon the car owner and
driver, and he now welcomes the at
tack by the dealers as the first big
opportunity to prove to the manufac-
turers that they have got to change
their attitude.

In other words, out Of the differ
ences between such important motor
interests as the dealers and manu-
facturers the motorist stands to ben
eft without in any way entailing any
sacrifice upon the other interests.
Manufacturers and dealers, trade con-
ditions show, are rapidly thrashinR
out their many differences and are
finding that q progressive form Of CO.
operation is rapidly developing. The
motorist expects that this will in turn
result in a recognition OF the need
for cooperation with him as we'll
Likewise he welcomes the national
differences between police officials.
motor vehicle commissioners and au-
tomobile club heads regarding mat
ters of traffic safety, legislation and
enforcement. TO him all this means
directing attention to the fact that
there are others besides the motorist
to blame for what has been and for
what Is happening.
The opinions compiled by the Amer
ican Automobile Association, more
| than anything else, convinces him
that the great variation in speed
laws, safety schemes trafic ordi-
nances and enforcement policies is
directly responsible for confusing
him into much of the trouble for
which he has been obliged to take the
blame. These disclosures will reveal
| the fact that official ignorance. mis-
directed legislation and extreme sec
tionalism are responsible for thou
| sands OF accidents and collisions.
The motorist sees no better way OF
fastening q national cooperation OF
motor interests, and cannot help but
feel that the further the pendulum OF
blame swings into those interests
that have held aloof, the better IL
will be for motordom in general.
And by ''motordom," statistics

CAR CONTROL IMPORTANT.
Conditions of Driving and Diff
Guilty In Parking, Topic.

Conditions of driving today are
vastly different and the difficulty of
parking in q small space at the curb
means that at times the car will have
its steering gear subjected to heavy
stresses, because the car may be sta
tionary or just moving when the
front wheels are cramped to their
limit to the right or left. Thus, when
one realizes the importance Of the
control Of the car, especially under
modern conditions of traffic conges-
ton, it is evident at once that neg
lect cannot be tolerated with any de-
gree of safety. For, neglect means
rapid depreciation Of all wearing sur
faces, causing backlash, which great
ly reduces the element OF safety. In
addition, excessive backlash will per-
nit wheel wabble and thus cause
rapid tire wear.

False Americanism

SANTA, CRUZ, April 24.-Will c.
Wood, California superintendent of
schools, who kept the Better America
Federation's propaganda out of the
public schools, paid his respects to the
state of the nation at the convention
of California school principals here.
"As a result of wartime propaganda"
says Wood, America today is the vic
tim of false Americanism and medic
val bigotry." He gave as an instance
the charges of reactionaries that lib
eral thought in teaching made the
schools hotbeds of radicalism.
