CHAUFFEURS
MAY HAVE LICENSES.
Some Times Better Than Two
Eyes, Says Sec'y Koenig.

ALBANY, N. T., July 27.-Secretary
of State Koenig today decided that the
loss of an eye will not bar a chauffeur
from obtaining a license under the new
Callan automobile law. The opinion
was given in reply to a question from
a Long island City Chauffeur, who
asked: viii you grant a chauffeur's
license under the Callan law to a one
eyed man?~
The man from Long Island figured
that because he had only one eye he
might be barred from driving, but Sec
rotary Koenig gladdened his heart by
informing him that because a man has
only one eye 1t does not necessarily
follow that his eyesight is defective,
In his opinion ON this particular case
Mr.. Koenig says:
N"All marksmen in order to attain as
much accuracy as it Is possible for a
human being to attain when shooting
always close n eye. Civil engineers.
in using a transit for running lines in
grades and levels, always have one eye
closed. One good eye is better than
two defective ones. and also better
than one good eye and n defective
eye" >
