STAR GOES TO TOP RAPP BROTHERS, Dealers Corner Cass and Pine Phone 371 Roseburg, Oregon HEADLIGHT LI On September 1, 1923, the new motor Yehlcle headlight law wont Into effect. This law provides that not headlamp lens or headlamp con trol derieo shall be used on motor Tehlcles in Oregon after that dato unless it has been approved by the secretary of state, and auihorlied for sale and use, after having been subjected to test by the United States bureau of standards as to conformity to specifications for motor vehicle headlamps prescribed In the law. Thirty-one headlamp control devices have been tested and approved and are, therefore, legal In Oregon to date. The traffic force of the slate, and peace officers generally, are tak ing steps to enforce compliance with the law and those niotnriMs who have not had the lighting equipment on their motor vt hiclea adjusted or secured evidence there of from an official adjusting sta tion, should do so at once, other wine they eubjecf thennelvea to the penalties of Ihe law for failure to conform to its requirements. To date more than 465 official ad justing stations have been authoris ed throughout the state and more than 1270 mechanics have been ex- j amine as to their proficiency and . knowledge of the law1 and have been licensed as adjusters. Addi- tlonal adjusting stations are being! i authorized as rapidly as applica-1 i tlons are received and conditions . of the law complied with, and other I ailitistern are twins' licensed so ! that facilities for compliance with tho law are adequate for all de mands. These adjusting stations reported that .substantially 65.000 cars had been adjusted up to Oc tober 1, 1925, which Is about one third of the licensed cars in the state. These figures lndlcato a general inclination on the part of motor vehicle owners tq conform to the law. Bulletins containing complete lists of those headlamp lenses, re flectors, and control devices that have been approved for sale and use on motor vehicles In Oregon, In compliance with the law, have been Issued by the secretary of state from time to time and these are posted conspicuously In all ad justing stations. All peace officers and magistrates of the state havs been tnrnlhed with Vnnte of these bulletins and all necessary Informa tion relating to the provisions and requirements of the law. Concensus of opinion among mo torists who have had their head lamps adjusted' In conformity to the faw, reflect general satisfaction with the results. The Oregon law la substantially the same as ex ists In most of the states wherein effort is msde to regulate headlamps- and control devices on mo tor vehicles. California has had a similar law in effect for the past four years and Oregon motorists who have traveled In that state and observed conditions are enthusias tic advocates of headlight regula tion such as contemplated under the Oregon law.
