SEEK DEFENSE TEST
/. ON ARM|ST|CE DAY
Army General Staff Would
Have "Muster" Made
Annual Affair!

President Coolidge in the near fu-
ture will be asked to announce De-
fense day as an annual event to CO.
incide with Armistice day exercises
on November II.
Plans of the Army general staff
for the defense test, awaiting .only
White House approval have substi-
tuted the word muster" for "mobil-
ization," as applied to Defense day
last year and which occasioned con-
siderable controversy. The OLD mil,
itary term muster" 1t was pointed
out by a committee of the Reserve
Officers Association, which drew up
the plans, better expresses the true
meaning of the test, that OF taking
stock.
Selection of Armistice day for the
purpose of taking periodic stock OF
our national defense" was approved
by the association as the ideal time.
historically and otherwise. The test
last year was held on September u,
the anniversary of the battle OF st.
Mihiel.
It was a good beginning" the
committee declared. "for 1t complete
ly silenced the pacifists and proved
the practicability and necessity" OF
testing the national defense.
Deemed Necessary.
Defense day is deemed necessary
by the committee "inasmuch as there
is a recognized inherent fear and sus'
picion in this country concerning any
Government policy that is not general
ly explained and understood, especial
ly il it involves military activity In
time of peace.
Defense day, properly handled To-
cally, furnishes unlimited opportu-
nifty for educational presentment OF
our localized defense organization, for
systematic patriotic demonstration, and
lays the basis for opportunity to in
crease esprit de corps in army units
and among individual officers who
take part or witness the event OF the
day."
Local exercises on the day, the com
mittee declared, should emphasize that
the National defense day was con
ceived as and is guarantee against
future war"
Cooperation of governors by ap
pointing local and State chairmen
and committees for the exercises was
recommended by the officers.

TRAFFIC LEN|ENCY
.3'IDRAWS NEAR END
Ten-Day Period of Grace to
END Wednesday-Brakes .
o to Be Watched.

The Today period of leniency toward
the new traffic code will expire We'd
nesday, after which police will begin
enforcing all of the regulations. Act
ing Supt. of Police Charles Evans
said today.
Although the new code allows a mo-
toriSt until August l to get new head
light lenses if that is necessary, police
officials pointed out that all lights
must be properly focused Immediately
so as not to be glaring.
A glaring light, Director Eldridge
said, is one from which the beam OF
light rises above a horizontal line
across the center of the lamp. Mr..
Eldridge said any motorist can deter
mine whether his lights are adjusted
properly by driving up to his garage
door. If the lamps illuminate the en-
tire door, they are glaring, he eX-
planned.
The police also will be watchful for
faulty brakes after the period of leni-
ency is over, according to Inspector
Evans. If policeman notices any
thing about the operation of a car to
indicate the brakes are not holding
he may require the driver to demon
strate how quickly his brakes will
stop the car.
With regard to headlights, Director
Eldridge also called attention to the
requirement that bright lights be dim
med at the brow of hill so as not to
shine in the eyes of approaching
drivers.
Officials of the traffic Office are pro-
ceeding with the preparation of a
small pamphlet, which will set forth
the regulations SO that they will be
OF easy reference.

MILD TEXAS CLIMATE
MAY AFFECT RATES

DALLAS. Dec. 10.-CR-Northern
cold and Southern sunshine are to be
enlisted as witnesses in the railroad
rate hearing now in progress here
before Examiner ]. b. Keller Of tn.
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Southwestern shippers have advanced
the theory that sleet and snow encoun-
tered in the Northwest make railroad
operation more expensive in that Sec
ton than in the Southwest, and IN
the basis of this argument are resist
ing the per cent rate advance asked
by Western roads.
They point to the expense Of main
tanning snow-fighting equipment, the
increased motive power required dur
ing Northern winters, and the heavy
cost of equipment and road repair due
to freezing. burdens which Southwest
ern roads in general escape.
The same arguments are given
among many others for separating the
Southwestern states of Kansas,
Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas and por-
ton Of Missouri from the Northern
states of Minnesota, North Dakota
South Dakota and Nebraska in the
grouping Of railroads.
The fourth day of the hearing TO
day was absorbed for the most part
with testimony from Southwest cattle
interests who are demanding decreased
rates on the ground that agricultural
and livestock interests of this section
have suffered reverses which make
present rates intolerable.

When finally reached over the

TO comment, closing the conversation
with "having TO 60 10 bed as he has

From other sources came the word,

avoiding any social engagements and
that he was interested in learning 10
