Show j Urge Better Protection for Arizona Road Signs There is a proposal that the next Arizona legislature shall declare a felony the destruction or defacement of road signs. The Automobile Club of Southern California last year had to re-erect a" large proportion of its i signs between Imperial Valley and El I Paso, two-thirds reported to have been defaced by vandals. The Automobile Club of Arizona, in conjunction with the state highway department, now is J starting on the erection of 8,00U road ' markers, and is asking better protection protec-tion for them than has been known in the past. There even have been instances in-stances on the deserts where signs that meant life or death to the traveler trav-eler have been shot down, or have been deliberately reversed, even though they indicated the presence of water. |
