who have narrowly escaped
with their lives in nlr, land mid

The Scot was one of 13 men

"Our company wus cut off on

I heard drunken laughter and

A. H. H Authorized Hitch
Hikers-May Be Popular
CHICAGO, Jan. 6 (UP) If
the automobile und tire short
ago becomes acute, "thumbs up
with the A. H. II." mny become
as popular a war slogan as "Re
member Pearl Harbor."
The A. H. H. authorized
hitch-hikers Is the Idea of Herb
Pucker, editor of a motor magl
zlno nnd also a keen friend of
pedestrians, particularly "wnr
pedestrians" created by ration
ing. Packer proposed tonight that
the states license hitch-hikers
who meet certain requirements
as to responsibility and citizen
ship. Upon payment of a 50 cent
foe, the hitch-hikers would be
Issued a license tag or armband
signifying that tho bearers were
authorized hitch-hikers and en
titled to wiggle-waggle on any
highway or street in the state.
The "A.H.H." would protect
drivers from thumbers not bona
fide licensees, but Packer's idea
would work both ways. He also
proposed that cooperating motor
ists be given windshield stickers
making them authorized picker
uppers. This would eliminate
much futile thumb wiggling,
conserve the energies of thumb
ers and thereby, he asserted, aid
the defense program.
Authorized hitch-hikers would
pay the authorized picker-uppers
a five or ten cent fare, depend
ing on how far they ride, to
cover gasoline costs.
Packer thought the day might
como soon when certain street
corners and roud intersections
would be designated as A.H.H
(stations) at which thumbers
could wait, certain that a picker
upper would be along in a few
minutes to convey them to work.
One advantage of the A.H.H.
plan, Packer said, would bo the
virtual elimination of traffic
jams in downtown areas by cut
ting down the number of private
cars on streets.
"From the standpoint of the
driver," he said, "it would be a
great relief to know how to dis
tinguish between bums and the
legitimate traveler along the
highway to whom he would Ilk
to give a lift.
"In addition, the provision for
nominal payment equivalent to
bus fare would help many a ear
operator pay his gas and oil ex
penses. "From tho standpoint of the
country, thus essential traveling:
would be dono with a minimum
use of vital auto tiros, parte, gas,
oil and other defense material.'
