The Automobile Split Not About Dues Policy
Oliver A. Quayle of the New York State Automobile Association explained that the Automobile Club of America’s resignation is not caused by dues of 900 or 400 dollars. He details a proposed equalizing amendment to dues, noting the state association’s overall income and the need to relieve small clubs while keeping revenue steady. He suggests the real dispute lies in legislation and promises further remarks after the Legislature convenes. President W. H.
