Ento Build Next Year loe as Superintendent of the Skokie Motor Briefs Free entry has been granted automobiles of American tourists in Egypt, according to a department ?f com merce report. Duty on entermg cars of tourists coming into the country for a short stay rteed not be paid under the new ruling, provided an international pass is obtained from either the American Automobile club or the Automobile Association of America. Motorists convicted of speeding in school zones in Rochester, N. Y., must visit the school for crippled children in the company of a uniformed policeman or pay a heavy fine. Over 20,000 American ·automobiles were sold in Mexico last year and, as there · is not more than one in twenty of the population in a position to buy a car, this means that the United States factories sold to one out of every twenty-five possible customers. This . year the sales promise to exceed those of last year. The display of human skulls and . bones at dangerous highway points is advocated by Dr. C. Royal Kessel, physician at West Virginia university, as a warning to reckless motorists. Minnesota now has 33,339 · miles of surfaced roads, state and local, according to. a summary of the Minnesota highway department's figures on trunk highway and state aid road conditions, and the last available figures on county and town roads. This total is made up 'f 1,157 miles of paving, 631 miles of macadam or bituminous treated gravel, ~5.729 miles of gravel, and 5,822 miles surfaced with sand clay. While state, county and local laws advertising signs on the highways are designed in most states to afford protection to motorists, only in Nevada do they attempt to preserve the scenic beauty of the roads. This was disclosed by a survey of such laws recently hy the bureau of public roads of the United States department of agriculture. In Nevada no permit is Q"ranted for the erection of a billboard c;ign or other form of notice on any location which may measurably destroy the natural beauty of the scenery or obscure a view of the road ahead or of curves and e-rades and intersection highways or railroads. ·~overning RAY C.
