Jewels of Watch

1t is not the number OF jewels

son shows that the modern auto
mobile represents more for the
consumers money than ever be-
fore. Lower and medium priced
cars of today offer many features
which before the war were avail
able only on cars in the highest

Just as motor cars have been
vastly improved since postwar
production was resumed, so also
have the facilities and equipment
OF retail automobile dealers been
improved and expanded to better
serve the public in protecting their
automobile investment through
advanced service facilities and
techniques.
The automobile industry pro-

has in reality helped make us a
united Nation, more progressive
community. It has helped
broaden economic opportunity. 1t

|AAA Has Active Part
In Urging New Bridges
And Adequate Parking
By Washington |. Cleveland
American Automobile Association.

During the war, the great prob
lem of the American motorist was
how to keep his car operating.
This problem was aggravated by
the limitations on gas and the
scarcity of new tires and parts
for repairs.
Following the war his chief
problem was how to secure a new
car at any price and with it, how
to avoid the abuses in the fnanc-
ing of new and used cars.
Today, with the return of a
buyers market and an adequate
supply of new and used cars, his
ever-growing problem is how to
secure the construction and main
tenance of adequate highway fa-
cilities to accommodate the rap
idly expanding volume of traffic
which is congesting so much of
the existing road system.
In the effort to solve all of these
problems the American Automo-
bile Association has taken an &C
tive part.
Without celebrating on past
performance let us consider what
the AAA is doing to meet the
present situation. In Washing
ton, as in so many communities,
motorists are confronted with an
other difficulty. the lack of ade-
quate parking facilities. In the
solution of these two problems,
the District division of the AAA
is giving primary consideration.
Highway Bridge Worst Bottleneck.
The greatest traffic congestion
in the District exists on the High
way Bridge crossing the Potomac
River. Relief of this congestion
