This appeal from the National Headquarters of the A. A. A. was based on an investigation recently concluded by the Legislative Board of the Association of which Roy F. Britton, President of the Automobile Club of Missourl, is chairman. The Investigation, according to the board confirmed the position taken by A A. A. throughout, namely, that the principal trouble today is the lack of vigorous enforcement of exist- ing laws and the deplorable extent to which clvic authorities throughout the country have falled to provide sufficient traffic forces to, handle the motor Vehicle congestion and the many prob'ems to which the automo- bile has given rise, Yollowing are some of the prin- cipal facts relative to present day traffic conditions developed by the investigation: First, there {s hardly a large cen- ter of population in the United States where the public: safety {s not in some degree jeopardized by the failure to provide sufficient man-power to handle the motor ve We Suggest You INVESTIGATE The Decided Economy of RENTING-A-NEW- CAR New Six-Cylinder Gear- shift Cars and New Fords WATCH FOR OUR ANNOUNCEMENT Own a Car This Summer Enroll Now!

Second, that what applies to the clties is’ equally ‘true of the rural highways, as few states have made provision for traffic control over them, outside the few that maintain 4 state police or constabulary Third, that whereas in the last ten’ years the number of motor ve- hicles practically inckeaséd 700 per cent for the country as a whole, and 1000 per cent to 1500 per cent in some of the cities, the traffic force in-& great many instances stands tod: at the figure it stood at ten years ago and in some Inetances {s actually smaller than It was twenty years ago. Fourth, that elghty per cent of the police officials of the country take the position that the traffic force at their disposal today is wholly In- adequate to cope with the situation orto eriforce the law and that the lack of man power jeopardizes the public -eafety. Fifth, there has been no effort anywhere to maintain a scientific ratio between motor vehicle regis- tration and the traffic control force. “The investigation” said Mr. Brit- ton, “leaves no room for doubt that our principal trouble today is the lack of vigorous, constant and !n- telligent enforcement of the laws we have. This cannot be done un- lese the traffic force at the disposal of police officials is adequate to han- die the motor vehicle problem and a large variety of crimes growing out of the automobile which create new difficulties for the police. “What is true of city conditions is equally true of the country roads, except that in the latter instance an additional difficulty presents {t- GET YOUR C AR WASHED AND MOTOR CLEANED By the Vaporized Kerosene Method AUTO LAUNDRY At the Alemite Service Station self in the very general dlspositfon to regard the automobile 4s ‘a fee grabbing opportunity. “In some large cities there has been no increase in the traffic force in thé last five years, these years co'nciding “with the period of most apid development in the history: of the motor vehicle.
