This is the general attitude OF the
German government. which has had
details OF the plan for weeks. The
governments problem is therefore
double, and it must, as usual, be
fight on two fronts. The fight on
the outside front is to obtain a GER

TRAFFIC CONGESTION
FOUGHT BY CITIES
Conditions Create Unusual RENE.
dies-San Francisco Considers
Novel Garage.

Traffic congestion in large cities
brings forth many unusual and in
genious remedies. Baltimore, like
Boston. is considering the three day
a-week idea, by which cars with even
license numbers can park downtown
on even dates and those with odd
numbers can use the downtown streets
on odd dates. San Francisco is cop-
sidering the erection of a skyscraper
garage for all-day parking to relieve
the congestion of downtown streets.
Most cities which have expert
mented with the restricted parking
Idea have found IL more or less of a
failure. A town which has ten thou
sand automobiles parked in it's bust
dess district enacts "oDe-hour"
parking law If the law is observed.
ten thousand cars are moved from
one place to another every hour. But
they are not removed from the re-
stricted area. only shifted around In
II Merchants who have been most
ing, claiming that cars parked in
front OF the places of business keep
away shoppers, are in many localities
reversing themselves, finding that re-
stricted parking keeps shoppers away
from their localities and results in
decentralized shopping districts.
The parking and traffic problem of
the cities, now in an acute stage. is
to some extent a forerunner of the
traffic and parking problem of the
highway as il will be in the future.
Well travelled main roads are now
demonstrated in many cases TO be far
too narrow. Many main arteries of
travel between large cities are now
being widened at a great expense.
which could largely have been saved
had plans been made ten years ago
for such widening New roads are
wisely built when plans for eXpan-
sion are made at the time of build
ing.

AUTO HELD UPBUILDER
OF COUNTRY CLUBS
Sites Now Selected for Natural
Beauty Regardless of Rail
or Electric Lines.

The country club as it exists today
is one of the most striking examples
Of the influence that the automobile
has had over American life and hab-
it's, says Fred C. Chandler, president,
the Chandler Motor Car Company.
What would the country club be
without the auto? The answer is, ut
wouldn't"
of course, country clubs came be-
fore automobiles. but they were diff
ferent from the clubs of today. The
old-time club was limited in its ac-
tivities by the very fact that it was
situated in the country. Sites were
chosen not for their beauty and suit
ability, but because of their accesSi-
bility to residents of the city, and
that meant that the club must be To-
Gated near a railroad line or an cleo
trio railway.
Naturally, the clubs development
was slow. The automobile has made
a visit to the country club so simple
and convenient, as compared with the
olden days, that it is entitled to all
the credit for the remarkable devel-
opment of this phase of American
life.
The clubs of today are purposely
laid out in secluded and picturesque
sites, yet are more quickly accessible
than the so-called country clubs that
used to lie alongside the main line
of the railroad.
However, it is in the extension of
their field of activities that the clubs
have been so greatly changed by the
automobile.
The country club is no longer a
mere rendezvous for golfers and a re-
creation ground for the young people.
1t has, instead. become a true club,
transferring TO its exclusive and in
vigorating surroundings the Social
atmosphere and comfort of the best
city clubs

MARYLAND TO BUILD.
80 MILES OF ROADS
$6OO,000 to Be Spent This Year
on Lateral Highways, Of
ficials Announce.
SpeciaI Dispsfch TO The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, April 26.-About
eighty miles of new road construction
can be started this year with funds
made available this week when Gov.
Ritchie signed the bill providing for
a road bond issue, according to John
n. Mackall, chairman of the state
roads commission.
Letters were sent from his office to
all county commissioners informing
them that S600,000 would be spent
this year on lateral roads, and asking
them to make recommendations i'm
mediately as to which roads in their
respective counties should be i'm
proved first.
On lateral roads, the state pays
half the expense on improvements
and the county the remainder. The
counties will appropriate the same
amount as the state appropriates for
the purpose.
The commissioners also were asked
what highways of the post road Sys-
tenn they would suggest be improved
pays half the expense and the
federal government the other. There
is also available $500, 900 in this state
for the work, Mr.. Mackall said.
AS soon as Mr.. Mackall hears from
the commissioners of the various
counties he will prepare an improve
ment program for this year and will
begin as soon as possible TO let con-
tracts.
In addition to the new work, which
will be started this year, more than
twenty miles of road which We're put
under construction last year will be
completed, Mr.. Mackall said.

EXPECTS TO EXCEED
1866 MILES AN HOUR
Tommy Milton Testing Out Miller
Special for Indianapolis
Race.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 26.-
Driving the same car he has entered
in the international 5OO-mile race,
which will be held at indianapolis
motor speedway, as usual, May so,
Tommy Milton, twice winner of the
Indianapolis classic, wheeled his
speed mount over the bed of Dry
Lake. near Los Angeles, at the rate
of 141.15 miles an hour.
Milton, the recognized worlds speed
king, who drove siXteen-cylinder
car over the sands of Daytona Beach,
Fla. at the rate of 1864 miles an
hour. the fastest any human has ever
officially Travelled on four wheels, is
expected to get even more speed out
of the tiny Miller special of 122 cubic
inches piston displacement, which
was especially built for the inter-
national race.
Records are certain to fall in the
coming race. when the small motors
raced for the first time last year, are
sent flying around the Indianapolis
track with year of competitive ex-
perience worked into them.
1t was Tommy Milton who won
last years race and broke the time
worn barrier that no driver who ever
had won a 500-mile race could repeat
Milton also won in 1927. His hackers
are confident that he will make it
three times this year contending that
he will have the fastest car on the
track.
Millions preparation for the In
dianapolis race has been thorough.
He took his new car to the long
sweep of hard earth in Dry Lake and
made his unusual test in a strong, un-
favorable wind. The wind resistance
slowed the car several miles an hour.
His car was far less than one-half
the size of the one In which he estab-
lished the worlds straightaway rec

EXPLAINS FROZEN HORN.

gan Mans Problem.

"a motorist friend told me the other

time the weather got cold" says a.
g. Zeller, president of the Michigan
State Automobile School, Detroit.
Il Investigated the trouble and dis
covered that it lay in the spring at

vibrator type horn.
This spring, a fiat one, was COM
posed of several thin leaves Some
one had creased them very thoroughly
with something that congeaIed in a
cold temperature. literally freezing
the thin sheets of steel together and
forming a solid strip of metal too stiff
for the magnets in the horn to move.
"One of our students cleaned off
the grease, substituted a compound
that would not freeze, and now the
horn makes as loud racket on zero
days as it does in warm weather"

Things You Want
Done When Car Is
In Repair Shop

Make g. note of the things you want
done when the car goes to the shop
for repairs. It's the best way for you
to remember what needs to be done.
There is new method of reboring
cylinders and process of tapping
them in without removing the cylin-
der block. If you are going to have
any of this work done inquire as to
whether any shops in your locality
are equipped for this newer way Of
doing it.
The secret of touching up the car
with black enamel that will last is
first to sandpaper the bare spots, in
order to remove the rust. Unless this
is done the enamel will not be able
to get a proper foundation. If large
spot or part of the car is to be
touched up it is best to sandwich
coat of filler in between the sandpa-
pering and the enameling.

FEWER AUTO THEFTS
REPORTED ON COAST
Southern California Club Says 956
Cars Recovered Out of
1,483 Stolen.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, April 90
Motor vehicle thieves are having hard
shedding in this section through a
cooperative campaign in which the
city, county and state authorities
have united forces with the theft
bureau of the Automobile Club of
Southern California Thefts at this
time of the year usually are par
ttcularly numerous, as crooks who
have been wintering amidst the
orange groves are returning to their
summer haunts in the east, and their
iirSt act ordinarily is to steal g, high
class car i'll which to make the
journey.
Recent rapid recoveries Of several
,'ars that were we'll on their way
toward the Atlantic coast and the
falling of the thieves has served to
slow up the activities of the light
fingered tribe.
During the first three months of
this year in Los Angeles there were
1883 cars stolen, of which $50 were
recovered, or approximately two
thirds. The average of recoveries IS
growing higher under the influence Of
the intensive cooperative campaign
against motor thieves

Safety Inspection
Means More Than,
Going Ouer Brakes

Safety inspection of the car does
not end with testing out the
brakes and greasing the steering
gear. 1t has to do with every
part of the car, including the bat
terry, the carburetor and the cleo
tric wiring. A dead battery would
prevent you from going into low
gear and using the starter-motor
to pull the car off the tracks
should the engine stall on a grade
crossing.
An unreliable carburetor, or one
adjusted for too lean a mixture,
would fail you when sudden ac-
celeration was essential. Neglected
wiring carries the possibility of
having fuse blow out some night
when you are hitting 1t up along
the highway, leaving you in total
darkness.
