Maximum Road Use Is Problem The great problem now confronting California is how to get the maximum service out of its main highways. This is indicated in activities of the recently appointed advisory highway commission named by the governor to get data and make recommendations for a state highway program. Among the discoveries of the new commission is that the public does not seem to appreciate fully the fact that roads are now fundamental business propositions of the state, county and communities, and not merely a luxury to be obtained by occasional bond issues. The necessity for adequate maintenance is shown in a check which reveals that traffic on state highways alone has increased 57 percent in three years. In the more rapidly growing districts the increase has been considerably more. While there is no question that new highways are needed and always will be needed, it is considered that the most important work at the present time is in the maintenance and reconstruction of roads already built, which are the connecting links between the main population centers. Included in the subject of maintenance must be considered safely, avoidance of congestion, grade crossings elimination, replacement of obsolete road inadequate bridges, widening and straightening and elimination of dangerous curves. LAP RECORD AT ASCOT BROKEN (Continued from Page One) In a mark for Ascot which had been pronounced impossible of achievement until the track should be surfaced and freed from ruts and bumps. California, Illinois Most Cordial to Mr., Mrs. Tourn SACRAMENTO, April 12—California's motor vehicle law permits non-resident motorists to remain longer without obtaining a new license than any other state in the Union, except Illinois, the Division of Motor Vehicles so announced today following an examination of the laws of all the states governing non-resident motorists. Out-of-state motorists may operate their cars on the public highways of California for six months without obtaining a California license. It was stated, the only requirement being that the visitor obtain a non-resident permit. Illinois was found to be the only state allowing a period of equal liberality; the average being from 30 to 80 days. In New Jersey and Connecticut, it was learned, visiting motorists must secure a license within 15 days after entering the state. Division officials said the laws of 18 states proved a "real" arrangement whereby a long motorist was permitted to main, without registering him for the same length of time given by the state from woken up. Thus California motorists visiting in such states could main six months without requiring a license while motorists New Jersey and Connecticut would be compelled to pay fees within 15 days. The liberality of California strikingly evidenced by the that during 1922 more than 000 out-of-state motorists visited the state, Will H. Marah, chieftain, declared. Here is shown the time all by nearby states to automate displaying the plates of an state: Arizona, 4 months; vada, 90 days; Washington, 26 months; Oregon, 3 months; Mexico, 3 months. WRONG SIGNALS TROUBLE CAUSERS Although the majority of motor vehicle accidents are caused by failure to signal properly, drivers are becoming more careless than ever, according to reports made to the Auto Club of So. Calif. This costly negligence is becoming more marked in spite of repeated warning on the part of authorities and the fact that a motorist failing to signal properly on turning is culpable in case of accident. One report made to the auto club extended over four years of checking cars turning at prominent corners in Southern California. During the year 1920 one in every 12 drivers failed to signal properly. These derelictions have grown more common until at the present the check shows that one driver in five is guilty of this breach of law. No particular class of drivers is named. Limousines are equally guilty with flivvers, and male and female display similar disregard of 18 states proved a "real" arrangement whereby a long motorist was permitted to main, without registering him for the same length of time given by the state from woken up. Thus California motorists visiting in such states could main six months without requiring a license while motorists New Jersey and Connecticut would be compelled to pay fees within 15 days. The liberality of California strikingly evidenced by the that during 1922 more than 000 out-of-state motorists visited the state, Will H. Marah, chieftain, declared.

WILLARD BATTERY AIDS IN HARD T The "Blizzard," the Gardner driven by Cannonball in the phenomenal mid-cross-country run from New York to Los Angeles, was equipped with a Willard thread rubber float storage battery. No small amount of the size of this heart-breaking end run is due to the battery, encountered conditions never in ordinary driving. Dragged through snowy water and mud, the W battery faithfully delivered electrical energy necessary to spark life to the sturdy at every platoon stroke and the high-power lights that the driver over trescherous train passed in blinding shows at night. Baker says: "The motor battered in mud, water, and desert sand." That means the battery never faltered in up the great heat generated. LAP RECORD AT ASCOT BROKEN (Continued from Page One) on a mark for Ascot which had been pronounced impossible of achievement until the track should be surfaced and freed from ruts and bumps. "I do not believe that DePalma, with his present car, could have covered the lap at Ascot today in less than 31 seconds," said Haugdahl to Referee Charlie Keppen. "If they will only let the course remain as it is, I will simply romp home a winner in the big race Sunday. But, even if the track is rolled to billiard-table smoothness I will beat the Italian. I am backed into a corner and simply must drive my head off to humble DePalma. I have passed the word in all my friends that I will triumph when we meet. I will now put my new Miller car away and confine by training efforts to a few laps today, using my reserve car." Among the crowd witnessing Haugdahl's great drive were many close friends and advisers of DePalma's. No matter what may now be his opinion of the wisdom of his decision to stick to the 122-inch car, Ralph cannot change to a larger motor. The Italian is now exerting his efforts towards having Ascot track conditioned so that he will have as near an even break as is possible. Following a conference with officials of Sunday's meet, Referee Charlie Keppen announced last night that four umpires, Harvey Goodwin, Edgar Bales, Eddie Linencoffel and Teddy Tettsaff, had been appointed to observe, from positions on the turns, the entire race. Motion pictures will also be taken of the race so that any infractions of the rules of the course may be checked in the event of a controversy or protest. Leon Duray, French dare-devil, is still walling loudly over being hurried from the race. "Both of them are afraid of my game," commented the big fellow. HOPPE COMES WEST NEW YORK, April 12—Willie Hoppe, 18.2 balk line billiard champion, will leave for a tour of the Pacific coast Wednesday for a series of exhibitions with young Jake Schaefer. I'll always remember The school by the pool, Where "skeeters" devoured us And chills were the rule. One report made to the auto club extended over four years of checking cars turning at prominent corners in Southern California. During the year 1920 one in every 12 drivers failed to signal properly. These derailments have grown more common until at the present the check shows that one driver in five is guilty of this breach of law. No particular class of drivers is named. Limousines are equally guilty with flivvers, and male and female display similar disregard for safety. It has been suggested that unless all drivers make proper signals, a drastic campaign be instituted to enforce this necessary regulation to safe driving. ARREST GREEK AS MURDER SUSPECT FAIRFIELD, April 12.—John Kopolos, 27, Greek, who, according to the sheriff's office, admits he was in the vicinity of Kennett last Saturday, was held here today in the county jail pending the arrival of Shasta-co. authorities who wish to question him concerning the brutal murder of pretty Oleva Hamlin. Hatles and coatless, his shoes torn to tatters and his feet blistered, Kopolos was arrested by deputy shelters after a struggle when found eight miles from here. He said he was weak from lack of food. According to officers, he refused to make any admissions other than that he had been in the vicinity of Kennett and had walked from there. He said he had thrown his hat and coat away "because it was too warm." A hat and coat were found by Shasta-co. officers in the vicinity of the spot where the school girl was murdered. Total of 279 claims aggregating $22,600,000 were recently allowed against Germany by the mixed claims commission for the sinking of the Lusitania.

Thruout the country, 2500 new Essex buyers every week, overwhelmingly endorse it as an unequalled value, says the company.
