NEW FRESNO TRACK IS ONE OF WORLD'S BEST RAILROAD RATE RISES Again the Wont ncoies. The completion of a new $250,000 one-mile board truck speedway at Kreitno, Calif., brlnnn the thiroV great race track to the WeHt-r-cfiualllns the number of Hpeedways In the Kant. The new peed way will be dedicated on October 2, with a 200 mile race in which ail important racintr drivers of the country will participate. , Two m;i jor races are fruaranteed nt Fresno each year, the "Kalsln Uay'' claws! c on April 30 and a 200 mile event on the closing day of the Fresno fair. When the Goodyear Tire Hubber Company of California nought the As cot Park rttce track at I Angeles A announced that It would be dis mantled to make way for 800 homes for Goodyear employeea, racing men were fearful that winter racing In the Went might be discontinued. , Hut the erection of a new speedway at Beverly HillH last winter and the new track at Fresno has difcPlb? his fear. Rac ing drivers are now planning to spend the entire winter on the coast, many of tKem bringing their families with them. With tracks in each end of the coun try at Los Angeles, Tacoma, Fresno, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and ITnion- town all-year-ground racing i possible, with the California tracks furnishing the center of winter racing activities. The new course at Fresno is locat ed on the site of the old dirt track at the fair grounds and Is flanked on one side by the old grand stands from which thousands of shouting racing fans have cheered their favorite horses ! and jockeya in former . days. About 300 feet of new, bleachers havo been added. It is modelled .after the new speed way nt Beverly Hills, which since the dismantling of he fiheepshead Bay speedway is the fastest in the United States. The surface is composed of 2x3 boards placed on edse. The course Is but a quarter mile ahorW than the Beverly Hills track and will permit a speed of better than 100 mllos per hour with safety. All of the race courses on the coast are of hoard construction allowing de velopment of the speed of the various racing cars. Kcoiifitny of traveling by automobile is compared with traveling on the rail roads is emphasized by the recently authorized Increase of 20 per cent, in iuilroad passenKer fares and CO per cent, in tho cost Is so marked, says the 11. V. Goodrich Hubber Company, that t will undoubtedly have an appreci able effect on tho amount of motor travel the next year. lender the i.ew schedule of passen fr fan's, it would cost a family of four $2D.60 to make a trop of 200 miles. The s;ime trip, If mado In an automobile, would cost less than halt th;it amount Tho gasoline bill would not run more than $S,00 and the weai m tires, oil, and depreciation of the stir would not exceed another $5.00. The trip could be made In approx mutcly the tamo time by auto as I train and with less 'inconvenience There -would be no trouble about get ting to the station on time, no porter te tip, and no bother about- lugKage Moreover, the party could stop as long as desired ut any pretty place along he way. . These factors will be carefully con- ttidertd by persons who do consider able traveling, says . Goodrich, and many cars will be bought unri used during the coming year by thuse who the past considered them only a a "'luxury for the well-to-do. The increase of 33 1-3 per cent freight rates Is also expected to stimu- ate motor truck transportation, par ticularly since the wide spread con struction of good roads is tending t eliminate one of the greatest.obstaclen to this form of transporting goods. 1 he advantages of truck transporta ticn are so many that a slight differ ence in cost will be disregarded.
