BOULEVARD BILL AFFECTS
ONLY DESIGNATED ROADS
Measure Gives Commission Power

Thoroughfares.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, May 4.-The boulevard
bill passed by the recent Legislature is
in effect only on roads where signs
have been placed and will not be eff
fective on roads which have been desig-
mated and as yet not been properly
marked, according to G. Clinton Uhl,
chairman of the State Roads Commits
sion.
Mr.. Uhl said he wished to correct
the impression that the law was eff
fective as soon as the bill was passed.
The measure gives the State Roads
Commission and the police commission
er of Baltimore City power to name
which roads or streets will be through
thoroughfares, with vehicles having the
right of way over vehicles entering the
boulevards from less travelled streets or
roads.

Rural Education Is Revolutionized
By Network of 4O,875 School Buses

The motor bus has virtually revolt
tionized rural education and more than
1851 900 school children depend upon
4o,875 school buses for transportation
to school every day, according to pre-
liminary figures from Bus Facts, an
nual publication of the national motor
bus division of the American Automo-
bile Association.
The A. A. A. bus division points out
that a total of 1880 schools now use
buses. which cover 410,370 miles OF
route daily and comprise A per cent
of the total motor buses used through
out the country.
THE motor bus has been a dominant
factor In bringing about the consolida-
ton Of rural schools, which has result
ed in q much higher type of educational
center" says Bus Facts. Approximate

FIRST FRONT-DRTVE AUTO
CHILD OF EX-FORD ENGINEER
Model of 'Ruxton," Shown In Los ANGELES,
Claimed to Take Corners at 40
Miles an Hour.

Disadvantages In the types so far
developed are that they have been heavy
to steer. Construction requires four
universal joints instead of two. and this
neceSSitates more involved front-axle
construction, and consequently the car
is more expensive to build.
Cars VS.. AirpIanes.
The question of how far airplane use
will cut into service given by motor
cars has brought an answer from
Prof. John S. Worley of the trans
portation faculty at the University of
Michigan. Prof. Worley believes the
airplanes will never compete seri-
ously with the automobile for distances
up to 500 miles, provided cars continue
the present trend toward greater
speeds.
Building speeds of 80 to 100 miles
Prof. Worley argues, together with
the development of super-roads that
will avoid congested centers of popula-
ton and link cities in straight line
will allow the motor car to retain an
advantage.
If such a road were in existence be-
tween Detroit and Chicago, he reasons,
two travellers might start at a given
moment. one going by land and the
other by air, with the man in the mo-
tor car winning the race to the heart
of Chicago.
Speed FavOrs Auto.
Prof. Worley bases his contention
thus: The ideal condition of travel
calls for continuous passage from place
of departure to destination without in
terruption, with minimum lapse of
time from beginning to the end of a
trip. There also must be comfort and
safety in vehicle which can be
parked almost instantly at or immedi-
ately adjacent to the destination, be-
sides being Immediately available for
use between local points in town or
neighborhood and ready for departure
to another destination so or more miles
away. Such vehicle must be disable
under all weather conditions and must
be reasonable in price, with low cost
operation and repairs.
Prof. Worley points out that airplane
travel, as now organized, requires an
average of 80 to 40 minutes to reach
airportS from the centers Of cities.
Figuring this in and allowing 100 miles
an hour as the average for aircraft
passenger travel, with 80 miles an hour
for the cars of the future over widened
roads, the plane would make the trip
in the shorter time, but the choice,
Prof Worley contends, would remain
with the car.
Even though, as some engineers
promise, future landing fields may be
located on the tops Of buildings, plane
travel would require time for the dis
lance between the passengers home
and the downtown airport, and this
time could be used for travel by auto
mobile either way without pause.

their doors since 1920 to be replaced
by at least 1000 consolidated schools
which are equal to the best In the
country"
At the same time, says the publica-
ton, this school transportation system
has been increased until today 1t is
estimated, that $4,000. 900 rides are pro-
vided the students at an annual cost of
well over sgt .256.7

IL States, has the largest number of
busses-14. 199. and at the same time the
greatest route mileage and the largest
number of schools served, 150,894 and
1888, respectively. The cost of this
service In the Southeast was $7,843, 1896
for the 1928 school year.
However, the Northeastern area. serv-
ing 1000 less schools. with shorter

So MILES MINIMUM
SPEED ON BRIDGE
Drivers Must Step on Gas in
Crossing New James
River Structure.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NORFOLK, Va.-Motorists touring
the historic Virginia peninsula this
Summer must "step on it" when they
cross the new James River Bridge con-
Meeting Norfolk with Newport News.
Drivers who are idle along the 5I2-
mile stretch of concrete bridge-roadway
face arrest by officers who patrol the
bridge on motor cycles. The "Sky is the
limit" they say, but IS miles an hour
is the minimum speed.
The high minimum speed rule will be
enforced to relieve Summer traffic con-
gestion, when long lines of cars seek
to take the short cut across the James
River at Hampton Roads. The bridge,
recently completed at q cost of $7,000,-
900, was opened to traffic for the first
time this season.
The motorist who speeds along the
ribbon Of concrete from Norfolk to New
port News feels more like q navigator
than chauffeur.
He is almost out of sight of land when
near the center of the 51a-mile bridge.
On foggy days the motorist can drive
for miles with only water in sight.
The new bridge is the longest and the
straightest in the world, connecting two
sections of Virginia which abound in
historical lore.
