AUTO OFFICIAL HAD TO PAY FINE.
Made Out Hundreds of Licenses, but Forgot
One for Himself
[Ry Telegraph TO The Tribune l

Atlantic City. July 2.-Louis H. Hopes
proprietor of the Atlantic City garage and state
automobile licensing agent for South Jersey. was
arrested and fined this afternoon in a small town
near Hammonton because he could not show an
owners certificate. as required under the auto
mobile law which went into effect yesterday.
Mr.. Hopes was appointed last week by Gov
ernor Stokes. and he has since issued nearly five
hundred licenses to automobile and
chauffeurs. So busy has he been that he forgot
to issue a license to himself. He was suddenly
reminded Of this fact this afternoon when, while
out for a short tour on the mainland, he was
held UP by a constable.
Let's see your license demanded the official
License? Why. I haven't one: forgot TO
get one" stammered the Governors agent He
tried 20 explain that he was one of the states
automobile officials and that he had thousand
licenses at home.
That don't 60 I've heard too many such
stories I'll have to take you along" was the
constable's decisive answer.
Argument was futile. and Mr.. Hopes had to
pay his fine to the local magistrate. half
thousand other automobilists have done in the
last fOrty-eight hours.
