AUTO LAMP BUYERS
TO GET PROTECTION
Lighting Devices Must be Tested
and Approved Before Being
Offered For Sale Under New
State Law.

Motorists in Pine and other Mimi
esota counties, when they buy new
cars, will hereafter be able to know
definitely that the lighting equipment
complies with the Minnesota law and
gives good illumination without glare.
Those who buy lamps for replace
ment, or spot lights and other aux
Hilary driving lamps, will also have
the same assurance, for hereafter no
lighting devices may be sold unless
they conform to state standards.
Under section of the 1927 state
traffic act, standards have been es-
tablished by the Minnesota Highway
department, and a laboratory has
been equipped at the University of
Minnesota at which samples of all
lamps offered for sale must be tested
The law makes it a misdemeanor to
sell or offer for sale, any headlamp,
auxiliary driving lamp, rear lamp or
signal lamp. unless it is approved by
the department.
Undoubtedly many, and possibly all,
o. the lamps sold as standard equip
ment on new cars, and many of the
lamps sold separately, comply with
the present standards, but hereafter
the customer will know definitely il
they do. The department is now in q
position to make the tests and give its
approval, and commissioner C. IN.
Babcock feels that there is no reason
now why any lamps should be sold
without the approval required by law
While many lamps sold in the past
come up to present standards, many
do not. Car owners who have any
doubt about their lamps may have
them tested at one of the official adj
justing stations, of which there are
now more than 100 in the state. IN
many cases simple adjustment will
greatly improve the efficiency of the
lamps as well as doing away with the
glare. Lamps which do not illumin-
ate the road and binding lamps are
both causes Of frequent accidents.
Approved types of lamps should
also be tested occasionally, as they
may get out of adjustment if the
tenders are bumped when parking,
or otherwise roughly handled.
The Minnesota law does not require
dimming lights. The aim is to get
adequate light on the road ahead of
the car without throwing bright
beam of light into the eyes of app
reaching drivers.

WASHINGTON LETTER
Continued from Page u

tions. The feeling in Washington and
elsewhere is that if there is a third
party it will be the signal for opening
of money bags. Practically nobody
believes a third party could win this
year. 1t is merely agricultural dis
satisfaction that is causing these dis
cussions. The oil scandals, the gigan-
tic concentration of corporate control.
and other issues are looked upon as
justifying a movement away from the;
old parties. The, pocket veto" by
President Coolidge of the Muscle
Shoals measure also is predicted as
being another cause for the introduc-z
tfQn of a third political party. If the.
Republicans nominate Hoover and the
Democrats Smith, they will produce
set of conditions m\st encouraging
to the people who believe things are
ripe for inaugurating this year a per-
manent third party.
