RENQ ENCOURAGEMENT
That 17,&X) automobiles will travel over
tho Lincoln Highway to San Francisco
for tho exposition In 191S and that the
parties In tho cars will spend over a
qusrter of a million dollars In Reno, Nov.,
Is the estimate made by H. K. Fredrick
son, coniu-at-large for the I.lnooln High
way, who left Omaha some months ago
to work on the great highway proposi
tion In the Coast country. He mads this
abatement at the Commercial club dinner
at Iteno a few days ago, according to
papers received from there. By 1920 he
estimated this sum would be multiplied
by five. He bases his figures on tho
report of 'tho agents of the ranuma-Pa-clflo
