An English Minister on French Roads.
While on the Continent recently with several Parliamentary friends, Mr. Lloyd George, the President of the Board of Trade, enjoyed the pleasures of motoring to the full (says an exchange). H p motored practically all the way from London to Mcs, and thus had the advantage of learning at first hand something of the excellent roads which are a feature of France. He was much struck with the way they manage the roadways in France, and doubtless he will be able to give some useful information on the subject to Mr John Burns, whose travels abroad have generally been on foot. Legislators have been able to realise the value of the motor car in getting into Parliament, and appaiently many of them are anxious to continue their automobile education when they have realised their ambitions.
