Unquestion- -ably the highways of the National Capital were in sad need of ve- pair, but it seems strange that <o “much of this needed work was un- «dertaken at' approximately the -same time. A New Detour. And alas, alack, word comes of 2 mew detour to be promulgated, and right in the most heavily con- gested” section of the city. This ew worry to the weary traveler rom office will be caused by the closing of Fifteenth street along the east side of the Treasury. Re- pair work on this street, if not al- cady started, will be commenced he early part of this week. On:v one side of the street will be closed @t a time, it is announeed. 1+ It is to be’hoped that all mo- torists accustomed to use Fif- leenth street will not all flock to East Executive avenue, for if they do it won’t be unlikely that-they will be nearer their office -than their homes long after dinner Iime. When. it is necessary to de- our, which has been a fact most of this Summer, motorists will save time and. eliminate much congestion by driving on streets a few blocks away or even farther. o Mr. Harland, the director of fraffic, will be away another weex on his vacation.

Change Needed. It is understood that the Com- missioners will not take the mat- ter up until Mr. Harland files 2 formal. recommendation for these changes. This temporary tabling of an important matter seems ur- necessary. but as the District heads so wish it, a definite repori should be filed by the director of traffic immediately upon his re- turn to the city. His proposed changes long have been thought wise by the majority of those in- terested in the city’s traffic condi- tions. Juries often will not con- vict when the jail sentence is mandatory. even if the evidence ghould be strong against the de- fendant. And, on the other hand, the judges often are loath to send a defendant to jail when in their opinion a fine would meet all re- quirements. A judge is selected for his knowledge of law and hu- manity. It should be left to his carefully trained mind along these | matters, rather than to an'arbi trary ruling of Congress, unawate of the case at hand.

Speed Laws Missing. Returning from a long-extended trip by motor through the various cities and hamlets from Wash- ington to Maine, the writer noticed, more than anything else in the way of traffic ‘conditions, the absence of .speed laws,. with the exception of the congested areas themselves. " Police were on hand to prevent reckless driving, but were nhever in evidence’chas- ing a driver. simply -because his speedometer wouldn’t behave. As a result;“even ‘on’ Sundays: and other holidays, degpite the vast numbers on the road, traffic moved along quickly and with| few mishaps. Pokey drivers were seldom to be found, and when they were they were compelled 40 | drive along far to the right of the ro>dwav. .

These two masterpieces of modern ingenuity are worth trips to see, if for nothing else. Conowingo Dam generates elec- tric power second only to Niagara. Its massive construction, with the artificial lake on one side and ‘he valley of the Susquehanna below, | affords the easterner a picture of the combined forces of nature and man that is seldom equaled. {tes;ult is power, and a mighty one s. The Holland Tunnel, more of a giant in construction, and by its building a greater engineering feat, is one of the modern won- ders of the world. Easily acces- sible at both entrances, it does away with driving onto a ferry and quickens and enthralls the trip into and out of New York. The ways are clearly marked. From Newark the way is clearly routcd through Hoboken avenue into Jersey City and the entrance plaza. From Néw York the driver continues down Broadway to Canal street, where he turns west or right and in a few blocks he is at the tube. Inside the motorist breezes along one of the two lenes going in his direction at the rate of 30 to 40 miles an hour through dry tiling brilliantly lighted that wonld do credit to any Turkish bath. Trucks and :slow-moviug vehicles use one lane, the fast moving cars the other. At no time does the driver see cars coming in the other direction. The venti- lation is perfect. The smell of gasoline or the sight of smoke is non-eistent. A few minutes and the drive is finished. The length of the tunnel is 9.250 feet, with 5480 feet under the river. It is 20 feet wide and has an hourly cavacity in both di- re~tions of 2.800 vehicles. The ectimated daily traffic is 46,000 vehicles. p Wor't was started on September 1..1019, and w2s finished on No- ~embe~ 12. 1997, The total cost was $43:490.000.

Additional proof of the growing popu- larity of motor touring abroad is seen in the fa_: that during the first six months of- this year the foreign division of the Amt Automébile tion - ped 500 more cars than it shipped the corresponding périod of last year. The A. A.

BALTIMORE, September 8.—A de- cline in the mortality record from au- tomobile accidents this year among the more than 18,000,000 industrial policy holders of a large insurance company, as eomfared to last year's figures, is reflected in statistics collected here hy the Baltimore Safety é ‘The insurance company announced that analysis of their records up to Au- gust 18 last showed a decline in auto- mobile fatalities for the first time in 17 years. John P. Rostmeyer, director of the Baltimore Safety Council, said his fig- ures showed that there were 60 fatalities in trafic accidents in the city curing the first six months of 1928, as com- pared to 82 in 1927. These figures are not based on automobile deaths alone. but include all types of vehicles. were 6,203 hits or trafic accidents in the city, according to the council’s rec- ords. This compared to 6,967 accidents in 1927, showing a decline of 674, or 2.6 per cent. Of these accidents 2,035 were classed this year as personal-injury acciden . in which 2,291 persons were hurt, ex- clusive of the 60 who died. Last year 2,326 were recorded as personal-injury |accidents and 2,544 persons were in- jured, not including the 82 who were killed. The decrease this year in personal- injury accidents is therefore 291, or 12.5 per cent, while the number of ‘persons imjut"d has fallen off 253, or 9.9 per cent: HOLD BANQUET. tertained Here. and the banquet were held at the May- H.

The average wholesale price which the Washington motorist pald for his aus tomobile during 1927 was $758.85, ac<, cording fo figures of the Amierican Mo )’ tion anal the 1 g‘rgduwm figures sh that 2,873, ger automobiles were manu- factured in the United States, having an aggregate wholesale value of $2,- 174,718,977. Of the total number man- ufactured, 2,594,638 passenger cars were sold in the United States, of which 17,605 were sold in Washington and 278,742 were exported. The average export value was $746.03. One of the outstanding facts divulged by the analysis, d out by Thomas J. Keefe, gen: menager of the asso- ciation, is that the American motorist is very rapidly closed type of car. Of all the passen- ger cars purchased by motorists in the United States last year, 855 per cent were closed vehicles. The rapid change from open to closed cars is revealed by the figures, which show that in 1921 but 21.6 per cent of the ‘total produc- tion was closed cars.” This increased to |35 per cent in 1925, 58.3 per cent in {1926 and 855 per cent last year. While the average retail price cannot be definitely determined because of the variation in freight rates throughout the country, the following figures, show- ing the wholesale price of the various types of passenger cars, will be of in- terest to the motorist: No.sold Average price $536.29 586.72 763.54 pes. 805.46 Total production of all classes, in- cluding passenger cars, trucks and com- mercial vehicles, aggregated 3,335,805 vehicles, the average wholesale price | for all classes being $760.81.

If you want to test ‘the pul prowess of your motor tar on your favorite hill, lflll‘lfl cars of competitive make, the thing to do is to find out which car can ascend the hill in the slowest time, rather than the fastest. To make the test still more difficult, start at the bottom of the hill from a standstill, so that there is no mo- mentum to carry the car part way up the hill. “This type of test demonstrates more than mere power, for it con- clusively shows the flexibility of a power plant. Every internal com- bustion engine has a certain speed at which it develops its maximum power. A highly efficient motor, therefore, should be flexible enough to maintain an even flow of power even at an extremerly low rate of speed, without knocking or bucking.” CARBON MONOXIDE GAS WARNING GIVEN U. S. Public Health Service Cau- tions Against Running Motor in Garage. “With the millions upon millions of motor cars in daily service, much has been said about the danger of monoxide as,” states a local automobile dis- ributer, Despite warnings not to run an automobile engine jn a garage, par- ticularly with the doors closed, there continues to be di from this cause. But now comes a statemen! from a more authoritative source which af- firms with considerable stress every previous warning which has been broadeast. ‘The United States Public Health Serv- ice recently finished a survey to as- certain whether automobile exhaust gas constituted a health menace in large cities. In stating its findings the health service had this to say about garages: “The great danger to life is unques- tionably in the smali private garage, containing one or two cars. Under any circumstances the discharge of an automobile exhaust into & roofed in- closure should be regarded as a haz- ardous act.” There is nothing ambiguous about this statement. It means but one thing—that death lurks within a ga- rage for any motorist who permits his engine to run longer than is necessary for driving the car into the garage and leaving it. One must not forget that carbon monoxide is an odorless gas. It cannot be detected as one would identify any of the other gases which have distinguishing odors. An exhaust gas has an obnoxious smell, but that does not indicate the carbon monoxide content. Because of this jt presents itsell stealthily and wreaks harm, so the only way to combat it is to exercise caution at all times.

Six miles before reaching Uniontown, at Summit Hill, a wonderful view of the Monongahela Valley may be had.

From New York to Albany two routes are available to Newburgh. The first one is to run on the Albany post road. route No. 9-E. as far as Peekskill, where the bridge may be crossed to v Mountain, and then north on the west side, 9-W. through West Point, over the Storm King Highway to Nel‘bur%h. and | through Highland, Kingston, Catskill and Athens. Another attractive way to go is to follow Broadway to Yonkers, |and there cross the ferry to Alpine. Run north along the river to Nyack and then inland to Suffern (this detour being advisable on account of road work) and through Central Valley to Newburgh. From Albany the route runs through the picturesque Mohawk Valley through Schenectady, Amsterdam and Little Falls to Utica. Here the route leaves the Mohawk River and runs via Kirk~ land, Oneida Castle and Chittenango to Syracuse, and. then ta Auburn, on Owasco Lake, one of the six finger lakes that lie in the he of Central New York. Cayuga a beautiful body of water, at whose seuthern end is located Ithaca, the home of Cornell University, lies to the south of the route from Auburn to Seneca Falls. Next comes Geneva, at the north end of Seneca Lake, and then Canandaigua. and -Avon. Here the route leaves the main Mohawk Valley Highway and runs up to Rochester and then through Me- dina and Ridgeway to Niagara Falls. Crossing over into Niagara Falls, On- tario, the route runs across this Cana- dian province through Hamilten, Wood- stock, London, Blenheim to Windsor and then into the States again at Detroit, Mich. Flint, the home of several car com- panies and other allied industries, is but 68 miles from Detroit, and a great many motorists will want to include a visit to this city in their itinerary. From Detroft the route cuts acroas the State of Michigan from east to west through Ann Arbor, Jackson, Bat- tle Creek, Kalamazoo to Benton Harbor, | on Lake Michigan. and then around the southern end of the lake through Gary to_Chicago. The motorist who does not wish to cross over into Canadian soil may Sg from Niagara Falls, N. Y. to Bufl: and then along the shores of Lake Erie through Westfield, Erie, Conneaut.

Continuing along route No. 20 from Toledo, the route passes through Wauseon, Elkhart and South Bend to Chicago. It is also possible to go from Pitts- burgh to Chicago via a northern route, which leads through Rechester, Beaver Falls, Youngstown to Akron, the .center of the rubber industry. Here also is the old homestead of John Brown of Civil War fame.
