. SCHOOL PATROLS - | TOBE WIDESPREAD A. A. A. Head Announces Vig- | orous Safety Educational Campaign in U. S. On the heels of the meeting here of the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety, the American Automo- bile Association, which is an organiza- tion member of the conference, an- nounced the completion of plans for widespread expansion of the schoolboy patrol units throughout the country. The announcement was made by Thomas P. Henry, president cf the A. A. A, who was one of the speakers at_the conference. In addition to the expansion of the &choolboy patrol movement, Mr. Henry asserted that the national motoring body would launch a vigorous campaign to bring safety education into all the school rooms of the country. Cites Lamont Statement. Mr. Henry cited the statement of Robert P. Lamont, Secretary of Commerce, chairman of the confer- ence, as evidence of what the schoolboy patrol and safety education in the school curriculum had accomplished to | protect the children of the country from accidents and fatalities. Mr. La- mont said: “An encoutaging fact is found in the Telative improvement in the traffic fa- tality record among children. In seven years, while adult fatalities were more than doubling, those of children in- creased by less than 25 per cent. In 1922 children made up more than 29 per cent of all traffic casualties, in 1928 less than 20 per cent. Further- more, 1928 registered an actual de- crease in such child fatalities and par- tial returns for 1929 indicate a still more marked decrease. This improve- ment is largely attributable to safety education in the schools and to the successful operation of schoolboy pa- trols in ufe,'uurdmg children on their way to and from school.” Mr. Henry pointed out that 175,000 #choolboys are operating in patrols or- ganized and supported by A. A. A. clubs, while these clubs are making safety lessons and safety posters avail- able to 3,500,000 school children. He continued: Patrol Has Proved Case. “The first A. ‘A. A. schoolboy patrol unit was organized 10 years ago. There are now 175,000 boys organized in this safety brigade. Our plans call for ex- panding the patrols to twice that num- ber within the next two years. This organization will spare no cost or effort to accomplish this as part of its con- tribution to national safety. The patrol has already proved its case. “Our program also calls for a na- tional campaign to make safety educa- tion in the school room universal. ‘Working in co-operation with the school authorities, our clubs have succeeded in ucunng the admission of safety posters and safety lessons into the schools of 26 States, where they are reaching 3,- 500,000 children. “We are confident that this safety material, which does not involve any cost to the schools, since it is developed and supplied free of charge by the A. A. A and its member clubs, will eventually find its way into every school room in every State. If this is accomplished, we can confidently look forward to an entire citizenry trained in safety.” MONEY SPENT ABROAD WOULD AID AMERICA Bales Manager States Half Billion Used Here Help to Pros- perity. If all the Americans who plan to visit Europe on pleasure trips this Summer ‘would tour the United States by auto- mobile instead they would contribute well over half a billion dollars to our national prosperity besides gaining for themselves a first-hand knowledge of the vastness and beauty of their own country. This is the opinion of H. M. Stevens, general sales manager in the automo- tive industry. He points out that: “An enormous amount of money is spent each year by American tourists who visit foreign lands. Many of these people know little or nothing of our great American continent, except the immediate community in which they may happen to live. “Great benefit will be derived by such | people if they plan to visit sections of | this vast United States which are un- familiar or unknown to them. A broader knowledge of the problems con- fronting various sections of the country would be gained, a better understanding of the dependence of one section of the country on other sections, the inter- change of trade and commodities and the necessity of co-operation between the States for the national good. “A half billion dollars, the amount spent by American tourists abroad, in a normal season, if spent in seeing this country, would be of great assistance in _improving our national prosperity. “It would benefit every class of trade and practically every community would share in improved prosperity because every section has some outstanding fea- ture to offer the tourist. “There are at the present time more than three million miles of highways in the United States. Stretching in a wide-flung network over the 48 States are paved and charted routes which en- able tourists from any part of the coun- try to visit any other part of the coun try easily and quickly. “Then, too, the automobile has long ago become a most luxurious, safe and flexible mode of transportation for either long or short journeys. “There is no section of the United States which does not have scenic beau- ties and historic backgrounds which are well worth visiting. Perhaps no other country in the world can offer the traveler such an infinite variety of scenery and backgrounds of such richly varied historic interes PLUG INSPECTION NEEDED| Gap Usually Requires Readjusting Every Few Thousand Miles. | The spark plug gap chould be in- spected twice a year, as it usually needs readjusting every few thousand miles.

HORSES STILL EXIST Lexington, Mo., Auction of 441 Animals Brings in $100,000. LEXINGTON, Mo. (P).—There are £till a few horses left despite the tractor and automobile. A total of 441 of the anim cently were sold in a four-day auc- tion sale here. That is the evidence For proof that they really have sol value read this: The horses brought a total of $100,000. Buyers were present from 17 States, The top price for the sale was $4,000.

KEEFE, | General Manager American Motorists | Association. What has become of the time-hon- owd slogan, “See America First?” Why are no widespread, emphatic, Wntinuing efforts still being made to call the attention of all Americans to | | the natural, historic and other glories | | of their own land? How is it that the American public | {15 being allowed, without a murmur, to | spend ‘more than $800,000,000 a_year | abroad when much of that money might be expended in this country with great profit to the tourists and business in- terests alike? These are some of the questions which come to mind as one studies a situation which has developed during the last few years and which, on the bases of Federal Government figures, is seen to be growing in significance constantly. Slogan Seems Controverted. Put in the fewest possible words, seems as though “See America First” has gone by the boards and “See Any Place But America First” is the watch- word of many tourists. A few years ago, under the impetus of the “Sed | America Pirst” campaign, hundreds of | thousands of tourists turned from pro- jected foreign trips and sought to ex- plore the manifold beauties and points of interest in their native heath. “See America First” is not a potent cry today. This does mot mean that the volume of motor touring in this country is not increasing, but it does mean "that there scems to be more strenuous efforts put forth by those advocating forelgn tours for Americans than by those who were wont to stimu- late domestic travel. If any one thinks that the economic side of this matter is not important— and these days every one seems to be ! thinking first about economic factors— let him give ear to an array of sta- tistical data, not lengthy but potent, made" available by the United States Department of Commerce. As already stated, American tourists now are spending abroad more than $800,000,000 annually. That money | goes out of the country and while some | of it theoretically eomes back in the form of increased foreign buying power, | for American goods most of it remains | abroad. $289,000,000 Spent in Canada. Of this sum, it is estimated that a | total of $289,000,000 was left in the | Dominion of Canada by motorists last | year. This is the largest single sum | spent outside of this country by a group which may be accurately and precisely designated as a motorist body. More than $400,000,000 fell into the | willing hands of European hotel keepers, | restaurateurs, shopkeepers, railroads, | etc. These are vast sums and espe- | cially significant at this_time. During the past year at least 4,500, 000 American _automobiles entered Canada. This represented a 25 per | cent increase over the preceding year, | and, unless all signs fail, 1930 will | chalk up another substantial gain, | Things have been made so attrac- tive to tourists over the Mexican bor- der that about $40,000,000 is being | spent there by ‘Americans, many of | them motorists, of course. The West Indles and Central America are getting a $90,000,000 chunk of United States money, and citizens permanently re- siding 'abroad account for about $40,- 000,000 more. There one has, in something more than a nutshell, a situation which ob- | servers are agreed is worthy of more | than passing attention. Now, as never before, it is felt is the time for Ameri~ can money to be spent at home and in getting acquainted with America. There | are, frankly, two sides to the matter. America’s legacy of gorgeous natural beauty is one of the greatest in the world. Not to participate in it is to sustain a vital loss. To spend $800,- 000,000 abroad when this country could | well use at least a portion of that pur- Some may feel that it is the in-| dividual's own business whether he chooses to spend his vacation in the United States, over the Mexican bor- der, in Canada, the West Indies, Europe, Asia, Africa or anywhere else. chasing power is quite as deplorable. | p; ent Abroad Annually of Whom Overlook Wonders of Our Own Country. ‘There can be no quarrel with that. It most certainly is the individual's own business. But why not continue the effort to influence that individual to a knowledge that here in America is the world's ideal vacation-land, that it should be seen by every American, and that the more one sees of it the more one desires to see and know its countless, limitiess wonders and beauties? Natural Wonders Remain. Surely it cannot be that America has lost the natural wonders—the historic points of interest—which in former years lent so much substance to the concerted campaign to direct the at- tention of Americans to their own America. That forcign travel exerts a strong allure cannot be gainsaid, and there is no thought that it should cearse. How- ever, is it not possible that many who do go abroad have overlooked the many things which their own land has to oifer the tourist and vacationist? North, East, South, West, in every direction one turns, this country offers natural beauties and points of interest which compare favorably with any to be found elsewhere, and in scores of instances are not approached anywhere throughout the world. Switzerland's mountains are pygmies beside the rugged splendor of the American Rockies. Our manifold sea- side resorts are not bested by Ostend, Cannes, Nice. The Riveria offers no more_langorous climate than Florida nor Southern California. What lakes are more beautiful than those of the mountains of Pennsylvania or New England? Where more cosmopolitan centers than New York, Philadelphia, [ Hi Chicago, Washington, San Francisco? Where more atmosphere than in New Orleans? ‘What place in the world has more spots and things of interest to it than those in juxtapesition to Washington. the Nation's Capital? An hour by motor from Washington will reveal to the motorist more historic and mlurgl things of interest than any other hour’s motor tour in the world. Yet millions hop, skip and jump about the world that have never seen the sights that are afforded him near his own country’s Capital. How many Americans who in latter years have made the beautiful Rhine trip ever traveled a packet down the Mississippl? How many who have wandered about Heidelberg’s ancient university buildings ever idled along Princeton's shaded walks? And are Norway's fjords more enchanting than “the stern and rockbound coast” of Maine? Thousands of Americans have seen the fleld of Waterloo. One wonders of that number how many have ever gazed upon Yorktown, the Tidewater Virginia village which should be the shrine of every loyal citizen. The tomb of Napoleon each year draws countless Americans. In Spring- field, IIl, there lies buried not only one of the greatest Americans, but one of the towering, monumental figures of all history—Abraham Lincoln. The eyes of the world are focused more and more upon his character. How many Americans who have visited Napoleon's bier have seen that of the Empanci- ator, located in a veritable wonder- and of agricultural richness? National Park Beauty Unsurpassed. The great national parks and n: tional forests of the United States offer vacation grounds of unsurpassed beauty —beauty of a more breath-taking na- ture than any Europe has to offer. And if the legendary romance of Sa- haran days is so compelling, the Great American Desert surely provides a rich lore as well as every natural concom- itant of the storled African waste. Strike out where the tourist will in this country, he cannot but encounter scenes which will make as lasting an impression as those to be found with- out these borders. So lavishly has America been endowed that it encom- sses within its own frontiers the ad- vantages and attractions of a score of nations. This year, especially, why not spend some of that $800,000,000 treasure in the United States and really and truly “See America First”? Profitable Farming‘ Is Profitable farming is ‘dependent upon good highway transportation; and the | better the roads the more profitable the farming, according to E. E. Duffy, high- way educational writer. This is the | conclusion reached in a recent survey | conducted by the Agricultural Experi- ment_ Station of Cornell University. Fewer motor_trucks are owned by | farmers living along dirt roads, the sur- vey reveals. Only one-half of the farmers living along dirt roads own | trucks in New York, while three-fifths of those along pavements operate them. | The farmers near hard surfaced pave- | ments drove their trucks an average of 725 miles more a year than the farmers served by dirt roads. This indicates that the rural districts | served by pavements have been able to | market their produce farther away | from home, thereby obtaining better | prices. The Cornell survey points out | that the farmer living along the dirt road | can only economically deliver to the | local market. Farmers on paved roads, | however, have their choice of three | markets; city markets, local markets or shipping points, or buyers who come to the farm. Dependent Upon Good Highways, Survey Reveals ‘The high cost of poor roads is brought to light in the Cornell survey. Snow prevented New York farmers on pavements from hauling full truck loads 40 days a year, while snow and mud prohibited full truck loads on in- ferior roads 90 days a year, or a quar- ter of the time. ‘The survey contains reports from 48 farmers living along dirt roads who could not hold their crops for a rise in price, but who had to sell when the roads were passable. The survey reads: “The following estimates of their losses were made by eight farmers: $2,000, $1,000, $700, $300, 3 . $100, $1,160. The last named amount was lost on potatoes which could not be moved when the price was high.” The cost of building hard surfaced highways cannot justly be measured in terms of taxation alone. The benefits of year-round pavements are manifold; the losses farmers arc yearly accumus lating through poor marketing con- ditions would often times alone more than outweigh the annual cost of first- class pavements. CONGRESS HELPS U. S. MOTORISTS Legislation Passed During Present Session Benefits Drivers, Offutt Says. Motorists of the country have been greatly benefitted by legislation passed | at the present session of Congress, | while other important measures are | still pending, according to George Of- futt, chairman of the advisory board | for the District of Columbia Division of the American Automobile Associa- tion. The two outstanding accomplish- ments, bruoght about through the unjted support of organized motor- dom, sald Mr. Offutt, were the passage | of the bill increasing Federal aid ap- propriations from $75,000,000 to $125,- 000,000 & year and increasing the an- nual Pederal funds for forest roads from $7,500,000 t0 $12,500,000. He pointed out that provision was als> made for increasing the per mile limit on Federal aid roads from $15,- 000 to $25.000 in States where the orig- inal 7 per cent system has been completed. While the pending measures prin- cipally affect the Western States, said Mr. Offutt, they are of importance to all car owners. These are: Legislation authorizing the Federal Government to build and maintain roads through the unappropriated and non-taxable lands in the public land States. This measure has already been tecting these natural resources from the ravages of fire. Legislation to enable the Government to aid in the building of roads ap- proaching the national parks where they are essential to handle the flow of travel into these public-owned play~ grounds, AUTOS AID AT FIRES Southern Foresters Organize Motor- ized Units as Helpers.

WASHINGTON, MUCH WORK AWAITS A.A. A. CONVENTION Policies as to Highways, Safety and Vehicle Tax to Be Fixed. The twenty-ninth annual convention of the American Automobile Association, composed of more than 1,000 motor clubs in the United States and Canada, will be held in Asheville, N. C., June 20 and 21. ‘With this announcement from Amer- jcan Automobile Association national headquarters today was coupled the pre- diction that because of changes in the election machinery of the national mo- toring body, whereby each member club is entitled to one counselor at the con- vention and an additional counselor for every 1,000 members, this would be the largest and the most representative gathering in the history of organized motordom in America. In addition to the formulation of mo- toring and travel policies, the conven- tion will elect national officers and di- rectors and an executive committee for the years 1930 and 1931. The officers to be elected are: President, seven vice presidents, secretary and treasurer. ‘The entire mmbership of the board of direc- tors will be voted on, which in turn will elect the executive committee, the gov- erning authority of the organization in the intervals between board meetings. ‘Thomas P. Henry of Detroit, Mich., who has piloted the American Automo- bile Association for many years, asserted today that while the agenda of the con- ference has not as yet been completed, he felt that national highways, safety and motor vehicle taxation would loom large in the program of motoring poli- cles on which the convention would act. 7 y “At our last annual convention we made a strong declaration in favor of free express highways. In view of the increasnig congestion on our highways, the development of a national program to make this commitment effective is urgently necessary. “It was at our 1929 convention that the movement started to increase Fed- eral-aid appropriations from $75,000,000 to $125,000,000 a year. In giving effect to this' motoring. policy, Congress has given great impetus to the effort of the States to complete the Federal-ald sys- tem. As a road matter and as an eco- nomic matter, this policy should be continued. “The question of toll highways and toll bridges continues to attract national attention. We have every reason to be- lieve that the country is solidly with us in our determination to keep the high- ways ‘free’ and to throw such safe- guards around toll bridges as will, at least, prevent overcapitalization and' as- sure their eventual return to free public use. “Our highway widening committee, of which Charles M. Hayes of Chicago is chairman, has made an intensive study of the problem of congestion, particu- larly as it affects the bottle-neck ap- proaches to our metropolitan areas. I expect important recommendations from this committee to come before the con- vention, “One of the difficult phases of road policy pertains to conditions in the Far West. There are now pending before Congress several important measures af- fecting this vast area. I refer to such measures as the bill providing that the D.

Federal Government assume responsi- bility for the building of main highways through unappropriated land in the public land States, the bill providing for the construction of forest roads and the bill authorizing the Department of In- terior to maintain roads approaching the national parks. “Because of the success of three movements fostered by the A. A. A. namely, the safety-responsibility law, safety education in the school room and child protection through the school boy patrol, safety is due to occupy a promi- nent place on the program of the con- vention. ., Our safety-responsibility com- mittee, of which Owen B. Augspurger of Buffalo is chairman, will meet in Ashe- ville the day before the convention and will in all probability report to the con- vention minor amendments to the law. “The whole country is interested in the report of our national committee on motor vehicle taxation, appointed a year ago. The subject is so complex that the committee can do little more than make a preliminary report at this time, but I am inclined to believe that its study has already gone far enough to show conclusively that the car own- ers are paying an undue portion of the Nation's road bill and that the situation now calls for the development of a formula that will assure fiscal justice to our largest class of taxpayers. “The convention goes to Asheville at the invitation of the Carolina Motor Club, one of the largest and most in- fluential units in the A. A. A. In se- lecting Asheville we had also in mind the fact that organized motordom has been increasing its membership and in- fluence in Southern territory in recent years. Charles S. Wallace, president of the Carolina Motor Club, and Coleman W. rts, vice president and general manager of the club, will be hosts to the convention, the headquarters of which will be at the Grove Park Inn.” 16 METHODS USED TO FIX AUTO FEES Weight Is Registration Basis in Majority of States, Accord- ing to A, A. A. Sixteen different methods are used by the States to fix registration fees for passenger automobiles, and weight is used in the largest number of Common- wealths, according to the American Automobile Association. ‘The national motoring body sald that weight is used as the basis of fixing | fees in a total of 20 States, while horse- | power is the basis in 13 States. Other | methods used are: Flat rate, three States; cost of automobile, three States; horsepower and weight, five States: value, one State; flat rate and weight, two States; value in weight, one State, ' and cubic inch displacement, one State.

Generally it is required that the reg- istration certificate shall accompany the car at all times, but in Alabama, Geor- gla, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnes Mis- sourl, Montana, New Mexico, Ohio and ‘Tennessee it need not be carried. In several of the States a car cannot be registered until a certificate of title is furnished showing that it is owned by the registrant.
