Plans for such a merger were given impetus, it is said, when it seemed piain that congress was not inclined to reduce automobile taxa- tion. ‘The attitude of congress made clear to the opposed motor factions that a union of their strength would be essential to success in national legislative matters, Atcording to the agreement effect- ed after weeks of conferences be tween high officials of the A. A. A. and the N. M. A., the consolidated organization is to be known as tho New American Automobile associa- tion, “This is believed to combing uniquely the prestige and historical value of the A. A.

The combined membership of the two clubs will be close to 1,000,000 in the near future and as this rep- resents the motorists in the country who conscientiously work for the simplification of traffic, the safety of the roads and the convenience of travel, it is expected that some im-~- portant steps will be taken during 1924 in the interests of better motoring. home last week.
