LONDON’S CONGESTED TRAFFIC
“ONE COLOSSAL .TAM.” VISION OF THE FUTURE. [By Electric Cable —Copyright., [Aust. and N.Z. Cable Association,] (Received Sunday, 7 p.m.) LONDON, Oct. 29. London traffic has reached a stage where each day constitutes a fresh problem. “What is needed in London to-day is a Mussolini of traffic,” declared Col. K. P. Vaughan Morgan, a member of the House of Commons, addressing Iho Traffic Society. "The R.A.C. must find somebody with vision and Imagination, who will cut through forces of inertia and obstruction. Everybody in England is a potential motorist. The advent of the £IOO car is a milestone in social history. There is roughly a million cars on the roads, and thousands coming. Wo are at present heading towards a London consisting of one colossal jam.” One of the English Judges recently referring to increasing number of accidents said: "We arc all in a happy decade when everybody is flying. This is safer than motoring, even if one or two 'planes do fell on our heads.”
