A MIGHTY PROBLEM:
(By Eleoirio Telegraph.—Copyright.) [Australian & H.Z. Cable Association.)
LONDON, outh Oct
, 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 Colonel Vaughan Morgan, a member of the House of Commons,, addressing the Traffic 'Society. "The R.A.C. must find some body with vision and imagination who Will cut through the 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, are roughly a million cars on the roads and thousands are coming. We are at present heading "towards London, consisting of one colossal jam." One of the English judges, recently referring to the increasing number of accidents, said: "We are all in a happy decade when everybody is flying. This is safer than motoring, even if one or two planes do fall cm our heads."
