The recommendations of the special sub-committee of the Automobile Club of China with respect to dazzling electric headlights have been heartily approved by the community at large. The experiments were made by the sub-committee with a view to overcoming the blinding effect upon other users of the road, while providing effective lighting of the road for the driver of the car. From the tests made it was found that the painting of a black disc in the centre of the lens met the case. Users of motor cars have requested a fuller explanation. We are informed that the lamp used for the tests had a lens of nine and half riches diameter, and a black dise four and a-quarter inches in diameter painted on the inside of the lens in the centre had the desired effect. It is hoped that all motorists will adopt this method of mitigating a nuisance to the public.
