Owing to the rapid extension of the Bur- lington linés ito the west and increased busitiess Andl'necensity for more directors of operation it was generally conceded that an assistant would be named for Mi Holdrege in his Omaha office. There was some epeculation as to the man and the candidates were sajd to Include Mr. Byram, George W. Loomis of Omaha and W. W. Troup and Bdward Bignell of Lincoln. The reported appointment of Mr. Bryam is traced indirectly (o the recent tour of Mr. Willard. ‘The latter is in general charge of operation of the Burilngion lines and it is known that Mr. Bryam has “made good" in the Chicago offices.

Mac Harding, son of President Harding | ) the Omaha Board of Education, has | written a most Interesting letter to Super- intendent Davidson touching on his: ex- periences in Berlin. Mac Harding is a graduate of the Omaha High school, also of Yale university, where hs won from many clever competitors a $1.200 a year scholarship in Berlin university. Of the methods of lving in Berlin Mr. Harding writes with a free hand and in enthusfastic words. He tells of sleeping under feather ticks and finding it quite comfortable after a short experience. He | couldn’t at first understand why heavy woolen sox were worn, but after living on | cold floors $6r a time he says he readily abandoned /his nifty lisle footwear without a qualm. “These #ox cost 40 cents a pair,” he writes,” but they are worth the money. A made to ordér sult of clothes, silk lined, costs $20; but a collar costs 20 cents. You can buy an overcoat to measure for $20, but it you want it silk lined that will cost you $10 more.” His letter was written a day or two after the Yale-Harvard foot ball game. On the evening of the day when the game was | played the Harvard and Yale men gathered at a banquet, and when the telegram came carrying the result every man present held his breath. “When Yale was announced as winner,” he says, “we did not cheer, same.” Of the lectures he has been hearing Mr. Harding has nothing but good to say. “To hear a solemn German professor pay Aribute to the American presidents as greater than kings in their lives and ad- ministration was the source of great satis- faction, and one cannot but feel elated when he hears his own country pletured as the gréatest In the world.

RESOLUTION DENOUNCING DRIVERS Aetion Teken to Put Association Record Will Be Approved by All Careful Owners and Public at Large. Speed regulations and the necessity for a more stringent observance of the rules of the road formed one of the raost im- portant toples of discussion at the annual mesting of the Ameriean Automoblle as- soclation, held at the Hotel Belmont, New York, last) Tuesda: ance was thoroughly representative of the leading automobile sections of the country, about fifty directors belng present, the states most generously represented being New York, New ‘Jersey, Massachusetts, Penn- sylvania, Connecticut, Minnesota, Michi- gan and Ohlo. Oliver A. Quayle, chairman of the legl: lative committee of the New York Stite assoclation and a former prosident of the state assoclation, opened the subject of reckless driving, which In some sections has unjustly caused’ the best Interests of automobiling to be severely attacked, by presenting the following resolution, which goes much further than any formal actlon hitherto taken by the National associa- tion to curb motor recklessness and insist upon sane and reasonable driving: Resolved: That the American Automo- bile asoclation places itself upon record as being unalterably opposed to the unfair use of the highways by criminal and law- les operators of motor-driven vehigles, and furthermore this national organ tion of automoblle owners calls upon its arfous state associations tb propose and secure the passage of laws which shall rid the highways of reckless and incon. siderate drivers even to the extent of revocation of licenses and jail penalties in proportion to the nature of the of- fonces. Mr. Quayle further explained that re- cent conditions in automobiiing not only warranted, but enforced some action by motorists who have the best interests of automobiling at heart to prevent future repetitions of accidents and recklessness in driving which have agitated many parts of the country. Mr. Quayle be- lleved that automobile legislation would be one of the important matters that tire incoming legislature at Albany will have to deal with and he iIntimated that an automobile bill might be the first measure introduced. Reports Recelved from Committees. A large part of the meeting was devoted to the presentation of reports by the offl- cers and chairmen of the various boards, The new directors will meet today for the election of officers. Both the secretary and treasurer's reports show that the na- tional organization is in the best condition numerically and financlally in its history. Treasurer H. A. Bonnell reported an ap- proximate balance of $1Z00. Secretary El- liott's report showed during the last year the membership had increased 50 per cent, the ‘present membership being 25,759, repre- senting tm¥ state assoclations. The total number of qjubs affiliated with the Ameri- can Automobile assoclation is 235. Six new state assoclations were formed during the year. President Lewls R. Speare's report dealt with the Increasing interest in automobil- ing In its present phases throughout the country &s shown by the success of the work done by the contest, legislative, good roads and touring Information boards. In view of the fact that Chairman Frank D. Hower of the contest board requested that he wished to retire from that position at the expiration of his time, and In recog- nition -of the splendid work he has accom- plished for the association, a resolution presented by Chairman Charles Thaddeus Terry of the legislative board, expressing the gratitude of the assoclation for Mr. Hoyer's sucpessful efforts, was unani- mously adopted. Chairman George C. Diehl of the good roads board spoke of the success of the second natlonal good roads convention held in Cleveland last September an urged all the members to support to the utmost | the third ndtional convention which will be held in St. Louis next fa:l. Mr. Diehl says that the good roads meet- ings be held during the year by all auto- moblle grange and farmers' clubs. Work of Laws Committee. Chairman Terry of the legislative board presented & very :xhlmtlv1reporl of the work of his committee and outlined the general plan that has been proposed for the 'first nationa! legislative convention which will be held In Washington, D. C., next February. At that time the national registration bill will be re-introduced into congress and it is expected that a public hearing upon the merits of the bill will be held during the week of the convention. The uniform state motor vehicie law will also be brought prominently before the members and efforts will be made to se- cure its introduction into the legislature of those etates which either possess no ef- fective motor laws or those which In cer- tain instances have been shown to be un- reasonable in their provisions. As had been expected, the directors ap- proved the proposition of the executive committee to dissolve the national body as a New Jersey corporation and take out a charter as a membership corporation under the laws of the state of Connecticut. Steps looking toward the change will be taken immediately. A nominating committee to select officers for the coming year was appointed as fol- J. P. Coghlin, chairman; Gorton W, Paul C. Wolff, C. H.

REPORTS FROM FAT STOCK SHOW Nebraska Takes First Prize for Best Beef Carcass — Steer Fed State Farm on Corn and Alfalta. at The heavy snowstorm left South Omaha practically without a market yesterday. Only forty-seven cars were recelved and these were mostly hogs. Prices remained high ‘for ‘all of good quality, but much of the shipment was under the best grade. The week has been a good one for cattle and this has been true in the number and price. The week's quotations for mutton shows an Increase in prices paid of from 15¢ to 2%c. The extremely bad weather is account- able for the low run of hogs and It is predicted with the present snow the whole bt the coming week will ‘be lighter than common. The packers find that the farm- &rs are selling very few pigs and under- Welght stock this year. This is taken to bé the most hopeful sign for the future. The tarmers will increase the breeding of hogs and relleve the prices which have | boen too high during the entire year. It is the opinion of the stockmen, however, that prices of hogs will not be reduced under the most trying conditions, as low as was recorded eight or ten years ago. Country hog buyers are complaining of the shortness of hogs this year. Where formerly they have picked up a 100 loads or more In & season they have been able to get not more than 50 or 60. * Howard Gramlich Reports Show.
