Show V AUTOMOBILE GOSSIP THE fate of automobile speeders still hangs in the balance to a HB certain extent, but if the work Hk of the Automobile club of Utah is HL given suppport deserved, tho votes of B" automobile owners and their friends K will go solidly aprainst those ill-ad- B vised candidates of the Republican H party who ache for the chance of con- Hjj stiluting themselves human speed' Hf ometers. H A state law governing speed there H should be, ti jly, but after the law is H drafted it will be found that it does Hj not possess the requisite flexibility to Hn apply generally. There is a very great H chance that such a blanket law will Hft bo found to provide rather a fast B schedule in some places, and foolishly Hf slow in others. H8 It would not be a bad idea for the Hi Automobile club of Utah to indicate H to the larger cities of the state their Df desire that this matter be taken up Ef locally and legislated for. This would H take the wind out of the sails of our B political friends and at the same time H be dealing with the problem intelli 1 gently.
