| ROAD HOG BLAMED FOR TRAFFICTOLL Progressive Cities Declare War on “Pest” Who Clogs Highways. BY RALPH HEPBURN, Noted Racing Pllot The dangerous, unexplainably selfish and unsportsmanlike practice of road hogging undoubtedly is responsible for more traffic accidents on American highways than any other single factor entering into the scheme of motoring ‘conditions. That the road hog should be smitten ‘with a vengeance similar to that exer- cised in stamping out any other com- mon or garden variety of pest is a fore- gone conclusion. Any motorist will agree with that. Highway facllities in the United State: are inadequate, despite the rapid prog- Tess demanded by the requirements of the 26,000,000 motorists who are trying to use them in the interest of further- ing their individual needs. They would ot be nearly so inadequate if the road hog could be abolished and if highways | ‘ IS FAVORED THE SUNDAY EDUCATION IN TRAFFIC SAFETY BY CONFERENCE Thorough School Program and Intelligent Co-operation Between Pedestrians and Motorists Declared Prime Necessities. Note—This is the first of a series of 12 articles issued by the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety, covering recommendations of the recent conference held in the Capital on the vehicular trafic sit- uation. Safety education among both adults ! and children and intelligent co-opera- | tion of motorists and pedestrians have | an equal place with uniform laws and | regulations, and their effective enforce- ment, in the solution of the traffic prob- lem and the prevention of accidents and fatalities, In the view of the third na- tional conference on street and highway safety. The conference points out specifically that solution of traffic evils does not rest solely with uniform measures in hand- ling traffic, or on the diligence of traf- fic officials. Users of the streets and highways, whether on foot or in vehicles, have an equal responsibility, the ful- fillment of which is essential to ulti- could be used as a means of accom: modating an expeditious movement of traffic instead of the hodge-podge that exists today. ‘War Declared on Road Hog. A number of progressive cities have declared war on the road hog. Chicago is a notable example. In that city the person_who attempts to drive slowly on a high-speed boulevard s treated with the same degree of intolerance ac the driver who attempts to break speed records where slow and careful driving is necessary. Michigan has discarded the old-fash- joned method of reguiating speed and has established in its place a law which permits the individual motorist to gov- ern his speed in accordance with the ‘width of the road, traffic conditions and sane driving policy. This law was en- acted on the theory that 30 or 40 miles an hour may be perfectly safe under certain conditions, while under other conditions 15 or 20 miles an hour may be_dangerous. The motorist Who causes an accident in Michigan through carelessness or recklessness loses his license and 1is otherwise dealt with severely. Undoubtedly other States will follow these examples in time. When they do a welcome rellef from the road hog should be closer to accomplishment In the meantime the best way to work on that type of driver is to show him how unpopular he _is. The road hog has been defined as “that type of motorist who takes his half of the road from the middle.” He s noted for his persistency in poking along on a high-speed boulevard, forc- ing those who would pass him to endan- ger their own lives and the cars and lives of those who may be approaching from the opposite direction. “Pure Selfishness.” Deliberate road hogging is pure self- ishness and those who engage in it should be made to pay the penalty. Automobile manufacturers are doing their best to make the automobile as safe as possible. Four-wheel brakes, full-vision bodies and a _hundred and one other modern ideas have been adopted in an effort to reduce traffic accidents. But acci- dents we will always have so long as motorists engage in unsafe driving E;ucuee-. and particularly that one own as road hogging. | Personal experience has taught me to | drive with my head as well as my feet and hands. " And this is particularly true when I am in unfamiliar territory. I have found it both wise and safe to get my car in one lane of traffic and keep it there. It saves me the bother and expense of buying new fenders and of paying doctor and hospital bills Besides, it preserves my nerves for speed- way driving. NEW AUTO LOOP TRIP Chicago Creek Highway Provides Route to Denver. A new automobile loop trip from ‘ Denver is provided by the Chicago Creek highway, completed in 1929. The route is fre Denver to Echo Lake, then to Idaho Springs via the new road. following Chicago Creek and re- turn to Denver. Smooth as a billiard table, this highway permits four cars to travel upon it abreast and traverses 8 beautifully forested mountain area. Idaho Springs was the site of the first fmportant gold discovery in Colorado.

Safety education in the schools and among the public generally, it was pointed out, is a basic and fundamental necessity in dealing with the matter. for playground supervisors, engineering schools and universities, including the training of traffic engineers. Suggestion is made that a uniform trafic manual be compiled and distrib- uted for the education of vehicle opera- tors in safe driving practices. This manual should be divided into two sections, it is stated. with one sec- tion comprising special instructions to the drivers of commercial vehicles, and the other containing special instructions to_drivers of passenger automobiles. The conference believes that the work of safety education should be car- ried on through every possible medium, including newspapers and magazines, posters, motion pictures, schools for mo- torists, safe drivers’ clubs, churches and schools, and special campaigns through civic organizations. The uniform vehicle code of the con- ference indicates a speed of 15 miles an hour for motor vehicles in passing schools during the recess periods or when children are coming to or going from school, and imposes the reckless drlvln? penalty upon motorists violating any of the other rules of the road at & speed higher than 15 miles in pass ing such points. Insufficient caution and care is shown by pedestrians at crossings of streets Co-operation between traffic authori- ties and the public is described as the first requisite in approaching the ques- tion, and through which ultimately the largest measure of success is to be at- tained. In discussing safety education and plans for its conduct, the conference said: “Almost from the advent of the auto- mobile organized efforts have been un- der way for the education of highway users in the special conditions and | problems of motor traffic. This has been the fundamental purpose of motor clubs and their work, and their work in this fleld has been steadily extended. “Safety councils and other spec organizations also have taken an im- portant part in this work. Business or- ganizations, notably associations of com- mon carrier transportation agencies, in- surance companies, and fleet owners, have carried on educational measures directed both toward their employes and toward the general public.” | In urging safety, and the co-opera- | tion of every individual to this end, the | conference said further: | “Strong emphasis should be given to | safety education in the schools. Fatali- ties to children under 15 years of age in traflic accidents should receive the seri- ous consideration of the school authori- ties in every community, with a view to augmenting instruction in safety meth- ods and accident prevention in the schools, and reducing this annual toll to the lowest possible minimum. “School authorities should join with | police officials in providing for the safety of children and compelling compliance | with traffic regulations in the vicinity | of school buildings. “Education in safety and accident prevention should be in ted in the curricula of elementary schools, both public and private; parochial schools night schools, vocational schools, citi- zenship schools, and schools of non-Eng- lish speaking adults and there alto should be carried on educational con- tests, organized playground training, school safety patrols, Boy and Girl Scouts, and junior safety clubs.” ‘The conference takes the position also that safety education of a more ad-| vanced nature, with study of traffic matters, should be developed in sec- | ondary schools, normal schools, schools and roads, in view of the conference, and resulting in accidents and fatali- tles. As a further feature of the safety educational campaign, the conference says: Pedestrian Education Advised. “In view of the fact that collisions of ‘motor vehicles with pedestrians amount to more than 50 per cent of the total number of traffic fatalitles, the education and regulation of pedes- trians, as well as of drivers, should be given greater attention. Pedestrians and motorists should bear a considerate attitude toward each other. “Along rural highways, wherever there are suitable sidewalks or paths, pedestrians should use them, and it is suggested that consideration of the State highway departments might well be directed to including the construc- tion of definite footways or sidewalks | along the public highways as an ap- propriate and valuable adjunct, from the point of safety, to roadside better- ment and beautification. “Where there are no sidewalks pe- destrians can generally walk most safely on the left side facing the traf- fic, but should not be required by law to do 0, inasmuch as at certain points. as on the inside of curves, this is a dangerous_procedure. Pedestrians Should Obey Rules, “In the congested areas of cities pe- destrians should be urged or required to keep on the sidewalk or within the boundaries of safety zones and cross walks, and obey the trafic rules and regulations. “Motorists should be required to give special heed to all regulations affecting the safety of pedestrians.” In urging co-operation between motorists and_pedestrians, the confer- ence says further: “Despite all efforts of the authorities to eliminate haszards, to provide ample warning and traffic control measures, and to enforce the rules and regula- tlons applicable at grade crossings and highway intersections, the public must in the main be depended upon for vol- untary compliance with the rules of proper conduct at such points. “Therefore, it is of fundamental im- portance ihat knowledge of laws, regu- lations, traffic control measures and proper practices in this regard be car- ried to all the public.” BY E. Y. WATSON. DETROIT, Mich., June 14 (NANA). —The sutomobile industry is mourning the loss of two of its pioneer leaders— Andrew L. Riker and Coker P. Clark- son. Both men were identified officially with the Society of Automotive Engi- neers during its formative years. Mr. Riker was the organization's first presi- dent, while Mr. Clarkson had been its general manager for 21 years. ‘The name of Riker will go down in automotive history with that of Henry Ford, the Duryea Brothers, Elwood | Haynes and Ransom E. Olds &s among | those who laid the corner stones of what is now the Nation's greatest in- | dustry. Mr. Ricker's end came suddenly from a heart attack, following his attendance at the silver anniversary celebration of | the 8. A. E, at French Lick Springs two weeks ago. Mr. Clarkson, {ll for a long period, was unable to be there and the engineers honored him with a felic- itous message in which his long years of service were recalled. Spoke on Diesel. One of many oracular utterances credited to Andrew Lawrence Riker | during his life was delivered at the| French Lick meeting. Participating in a discussion of Dieseél engine possibil- ities, he said: “Unless one can equal or better the acceleration of the gasoline engine b uxlngha Diesel engine in a car, it wil not satisfactory in that service.” For this insight, he had & background of experience with automotive vehicles that went back more than forty years. | In 1884, when he was 16 years old, he | built an electric tricycle, each rear wheel of which was operated by a bat- tery. Although this was considered more or less of a toy, it ran. After graduating from college, he continued his experiments and produced anther self-propelled vehicle composed of two bicycles. These he joined to- gether with axles. The motor was mounted behind the seat and the bat- Friday night. The assisting soloists were Katherine Kirk, whistler, and Mary Etta Callahan, reader. ‘The opening number was a toy eymphony, “Diversion,” written by Thelma Callahan. Classical solo com- positions were played by Herbert Wag- ner, Dorothy Moye, Charles Ward, Mary King. Frances Wagner, Katherine van Pelt, Judith Rose” Lorraine Craw- ford, Carroll Mallonee, Olive Rickard Margaret Boling and Grace Caveston. Mrs. Robert E. Allen presented her piano pupils in recital Monday evening, &t the Petworth Baptist Church. Solos were played by Louise Pledger, Edna Walker, Alien Weil, Frances !-ul,‘ Elizabeth Dungan, Aurelia Carter, Elsie Blankenship, Ida Fay Smith, Jessie Prances Homan, Courtney Amiss, Hen- | derson Carpenter and Louise Shepherd. Allen Weil was awarded the medal for the best work done this vear, and Evelyn Thomas and Louise Pledger re- celved special awards.

Two_years later the Riker Motor Vehicle Co. was organized and cars of all types up to five-ton trucks were manufactured. One of these was credited with winning a road race on Long Island. - Changed fo Gas. Quitting the electric fleld in 1902, Mr. Riker transferred his activities to the Locomobile Co.. which in that year brought out its first gasoline-driven car, replacing a “steamer” then in pro- duction. The gas cars won places in the second and fourth Vanderbilt Cup races of 1905 and 1908, respectively. Development of the Locomobile con- tinued with Mr. Riker as chief engh- neer until it was rated among the high- class cars of that period and for yea: after. During that time he also de- signed one of the first worm-drive trucks. The Riker leadership of the Soclety of Automotive Engineers began in 1905, when he was chosen president, with Henry Ford as first vice president. The organization consisted of only 30 mem- bers, but soon increased to 50. In Tecent years it has grown to more than 7,000 members, divided in 21 sections, with headquarters in the chief cities of the country. With this expansion the name of Coker F. Clarkson was assoclated since 1909. As secretary and editor for the little engineering group of that day, his engagement was made possible by the personal donations of Howard E. Coffin, noted engineer, and others. Mr. Coffin later became one of the main figures in the Hudson Motor Car Co. Opened Standards Division. At that time, the S. A. E. was known as the Society of Automobile Engineers, the change to “Automotive” coming later after it had been decided to in- clude other engineering branches cov- ering various phases of transportation, ‘To Mr. Clarkson was credited the idea of separating the professional from the commercial ideals in automotive prog- ress.

By this, the various companies manufacturing cars were led to co- ordinate basic measurements to allow inter-changeability that stimulated quaniity production, It was by this process that tire and rim sizes were brought to & common basis of measurement for all companies with the resulting operating convenience for both car owners and service men. There are said to be now upwards of 1,000 vehicle specifications to which the trade conforms. (Copyrisht, 1930 W. A. T. A. TO MEET.

Backing and parking are really easy if done properly. I have seen so many motorists experience dificulty with these two simple driving practices that I am impelled to go into them here at some length. Likewise the turn that involves backing up to complete it. - On approaching & turn that involves backing, approach the right side of the road slowly. Give the proper signal and turn the wheel to the left. Gradu- ally slow down as xnu reach the left side of the road, bt before you stop ing the wheel to the right while the ar moving slowly. Stop. Put the sar in reverse without moving the wheel. This permits all your attention to be concentrated on direction and speed. w‘v‘ you slow thelcu.r :}l‘o:n hpfl]orm'fi in, in swing wheel (Lp ’&Ie“l:o!oflll :lll find this an easy way to accomplish this difficult feat. Personally, I find it much easfer to drive around the block to accomplish the same thing. ‘To park is so simple that I cannot believe my eyes when I see & driver going about it in the wrong way. Time and again I have won bets that 1 couldn’t park against the curb where there was only 2 feet more space than the length of the car and bumpers. This can be done in one movement with practice. Drive past and parallel the car in front of where you want to park. Stop with your car slightly ahead of the in- side car. This is judged by the turning angle of your car. Reverse, turning the wheel full right until half way into the curb. Then turn the wheel full left as you slowly back in. It is necessary to be careful to avold hooking your right fender or bumper in the rear of the car in front of you. But while you are learning these les- sons of driving, don't lose sight of some of the suggestions I gave you earlier in this series. Particularly do I refer to the one involving the use of the proper grade of gasoline and oll and proper lubrication. REPORT TRACTOR’S INCREASE PRODUCTON Research Body Finds Americans, With Machinery, Produce "More Than Europeans. ‘With an average of about one tractor to every six farms in the United States, American farm workers produce from two to five times as much as do toilers on European farms who have not yet emerged from the horse era, according to survey of the American Research Foundation. “The number of tractors on American farms is rapldly approaching the 1,000,000 mark,” says a bulletin sum- marizing the survey. “Mechanical power is fast replacing horse power in heavy farm work such as plowing and disking and is becoming important for the cul- tivation of row crops and in grain har- vesting. “In _obtaining the highest efficiency from his farm machinery, the average farmer i8 developing a fund of practical information on automotive operations. He has found, for instance, that in lu- bricat his tractor, he must consider different conditions from those involved in lubrieating his motor car or truck. While he changes to & heavier ofl in his passenger car after 2,000 miles of driv- ing, he finds that a tractor usually re- quires a heavier oil after 200 hours of operation in order to render maximum operating efficiency and lessen the wear and tear on the machine. Such a pro- cedure insures that the space between the piston and cylinder wall is con- stantly sealed, thereby increasing the delivery of power. “It is estimated that 210,000 tractors were manufactured in the United States in 1929, of which about 60 per cent were sold to American farmers. The re- mainder were exported abroad.” AUTO RUNNING COST PER MILE DISCUSSED Official Ruling Based on Expert Testimony Fixes 7 Cents as Average Expenditure. What is the cost per mile for the operation of an automobile? This_question, asked by every mo- torist, has at last received official rec- ognition by the United States Govern- ment, and is to be settled by legislative enactment, reports the legisiative de- partment of the American Motorists’ Association. After exhaustive hearings the House committee on expenditures and the House committee on appropriations has just favorably reported to the House for passage the Wood bill, prescribing uniform governmental sllowance of 7 cents & mile for automobiles, privately owned, when used for official purposes. The figure of 7 cents was recommended by the general accounting office based on average operating costs of govern- mental owned cars. The bill would be- come effective July 1 of this year, the American Motorist Association state- ment says. “While the costs per mile necessarily vary with cars and conditions, the Wood bill, prescribing & uniform allowance of 7 cents, is approximately in line with costs compiled by large industrial cor- porations,” 1t is pointed out by Thomas J. Keefe, general manager of the mo- toring organization. “It also compares favorably with the cost per mile study made by the Iowa State College, show- ing the average to be 6.43 cents per mile, the study being computed from the aversge costs of 800 automobiles, being operated an average of 11,000 miles each.” Stop Fueling.
