CHIEF BURKE
WANTS AUTOS
LESS NOISY

Chief of Police Burke is about to
start a campaign in this city against
the unreasonable opening of the eX-
haust on automobiles, a practice com
mon among a certain type of motorists
when they come to a two per cent OF
less grade, and is more than annoying
TO the residents of the districts where
it occurs.
Patrolman William Hartman will be
notified to warn drivers O. automobiles
when they unnecessarily open the ex-
haust that the practice is prohibited
in this city and repetition may lead
to arrest and aine.
Before taking any authoritative steps
towards having the pernieious practice
eliminated, Chief Burke requests that
it be stopped in the vicinity of the city
hospital, as the noise has a bad effect
on the patients. The power gained IN
using the "cut-off" he says, is a neg
bgible quantity and the habit Is more
of a hobby than anything else.

to the annoyance of Market street resi-
