AAA Amateur Status Policy

This item was originally published in the August 15, 1909 Indianapolis Star. It states the American Automobile Association's (AAA) position on the status of amateur drivers as opposed to professional ones. This was a debate of the times and evidence of that is that the governing body of motorcycle racing, the Federation of American Motorcyclists (FAM) had recently expressed a judgment on the same issue during the time of the first motorcycle races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
