Feb. 20.— The International Cornmitt«»i»" <>t the Automobile Club of Prance has agreed that the races for th« Benoetl Cap and the Grand Frlz<? phall be run •■■.•• l .- I rat«>ly this year. Should the govern ment riot consent to Rivu authority for an extra race over tli« Auvergne course. the cup contest .will tak' i).ac«- in Belgium. The decision of the French club to run the coo testa for th" James Gordon Bennett Trophy (inter national cup) and the Grand Prix de la Automobile do I"ran.-. : on separate days will be Rood news to automo'bilista In this country? Since, the French club announced its intention of running the two races at the same time over the Auvergne Circuit ■ storm of protests from the other national auto mobile organizations has arisen, the Automobile «.:iub of Great Britain and Ireland being one of the llrst to enter a formal protest against the idea. President Daw Hcr.nen Morris of the Automobile Club of America recently sent a cable message tw Clarence Gray Dir.smore, the Automobile Club >. America representativt in Paris, to make a strony protest in the name of the Automobile Club of America. The French club proposed to start the candi dates for the International cup off first, and then send oft' the cars competing only for the Grand Prix. The teams in the international cup race are limited to three cars for each nation, but In the Grand Prix contest France was to be altowed eighteen carp, including those competing tor the Bennett trophy. The allotment of cars for other countries by the French club was: German] and England, six each; Italy. Switzerland. Austria, United States and Belgium, tn.«-. each. The race for the Grand ii J r.x is to be run for the first time this year, ar.d was Instituted by tn- 1 French club uwlng to the assertion of the rTei ill makers that they did not receive propei recogni tion in the International cup race. A Van*. an paper has already announced mat it will give :• * -■" francs to the maker or th« winning car in in.- Grand Prix race, li la owing partly to the professional spirit of the Grand Prix that protest* nave been made against its being run in connec tion with the contest for the James Gordon Ben nett Trophy. The main objection, however, ha? teen that it would be too dangerous to run the two races together, with forty-five possible competing cars, over such a dangerous course as the Auverc'ie Circuit is acknowledged to be, with its many sharp turns and Its winding and narrow roads.
