It's the kind of unfair competition that makes a woman's blood boll. It wasn't so bad when every one was wearing rayons but being a have-not in the pres ence of haves Is hard to take."

I refer to the comma after the word, simul taneously. This comma should precede that word, not follow it, Also, there should be a comma after the first word of the quo tation, drivers. The sense of the law appears to De that "simultaneously at proachlng a given point" refers to the vehicle about to enter the intersection and the vehicle or vehicles on the right simultane ously with the first vehicle ap proaching a point located at the intersection of their projected lines of travel. As the law reads, however, "simultaneously approaching a given point" could Just as well reier to two or more vehicles en tirely exclusive of the vehicle first referred to as approaching me intersection. These other two or more vehicles could be simul taneously approaching any given point, San Francisco, say, while distant several hundred miles from that point. Under this internretatlnn which, while extreme, strikes me as appropriate to the word ing, one might have a very long wait Indeed if he attempted to enter a busy intersection. bumming up, I should sav the wording is a diserace to the l. gal profession which is reRnnn. sible for such things.
