HAMILTON MOTORISTS.
ASSOCIATION ACTIVITIES.
INCREASE IN MEMBERSHIP
[from our own correspondent.]
HAMILTON, Wednesday.
A satisfactory year's operations are reviewed in the annual report of the Hamilton branch of the Auckland Automobile Association, which will be presented at the .annual meeting on September 8. A further increase is shown in the membership for the district, the total now standing at 888.
Referring to the need of a motorists' camp in Hamilton, the report states there was no guarantee of permanence in regard to the portion of the former camp now used for this purpose. The question of highway finance was of deep concern to country members, who were seeking a measure of derating to meet the heavy reduction in the prices realised for farm products. The motorists' associations were in sympathy with them and were desirous that motor taxation should bo applied to the permanent surfacing of country roads.
