HE HAS A LITTLE LIST
OF v|OLATORS OF LAW
Chief Sylvester Provided With
Card Index of Offending
ChauffeurS.

The license numbers OF motor vehicle
operators who have been warned by the
police of minor violations of the regula-
tons. as well as license numbers of
chauffeurs who have been found guilty
are indeXed at police headquarters and
are 20 be used against them IL they are
ever taken into the Police Court for any
similar offense.
Maj. Sylvester, chief of police, has a
card index with the numbers and names
of offenders who have been warned by
the police. This cabinet of informa ton
was established. not only with a view of
affording warnings to the careless and
Indifferent operator. but so that the police
department and judges of the courts
might be Informed as to who are disobey-
ing the regulations

Applicants Are Slow.

So far, apple atoms have been reaching
the board slowly. this being true of whole
sale as we'll as retail establishments. At
present there arc III wholesale houses
in Washington. but only forty-nine of The
number have applied for new licenses
Applications for retail licenses are re-
CURED to be accompanied by S-.D deposit
each the amount OF 500 being required
in case of the wholesale applications.
At the beginning of the Ii ense year
twelve months ago there Were three less
retail and tour less wholesale applica lions
filed as compared with the year previous.
1t is probable that there will be d slight
falling off this year. but tn cannot be
asceItained until the last moment.

Penalties for Violations.

The chief of police states that this ia
ciity was made necessary by the Simms
law. which says:
The driver or operator and the owner
or proprietor riding in the motor vehicle
violating any of the provisions of this
act shall. upon conviction for the first
offense, be fined not less than 50 nor
more than $40, and shall. on conviction
for the second offense within one year
from the commission of the first offense,
be fined not less than $40 nor more than
500. or be imprisoned for not less than
nve days or more than thirty days, at the
discretion of the court. and shall. upon
conviction for the third offense within
one year from the commission of the til st
offense. and for any and all subsequent
offenses be fined not less than $50 nor
more than $3.50 and be Imprisoned in the
workhouse for not less than thirty days
nor more than six months.
1t Is doubtful if 90 per cent of the own
erS and operators are aware of the eX-
iStence of these terms upon the law
books, and If collateral had not been ac-
copied in several cases where violations
of the law We're charged, the police hold,
it would be up to the court to determine
how much of the maximum penalty shOu d
be enfor: ed against those who were called
to account. The card index case for the
last year will now undergo a close scru-
tiny and those delinquent will stand out
in the light for the information of the
court, largely due to increasing troubles
the police are having in securing reduc-
ton Of speed on the part of many oper-
ators at "intersecting" streets.
The law requires that the speed across
intersect.ng streets sha he reduced to
eight miles an hour and around cor
ners' to six miles an hour. When po-
liceman is present there is generally COM
pliance.
Maj. Sylvester's Statement.
Maj. Sylvester yesterday said of the
situation:
1T is surprising to note how many
chauffeurs and drivers fail to respect the
law in this regard. If the policy of not
accepting collateral is made effective it
will throw cases INTO court and the result
would De very unpleasant for many oper-
ators of machines.
The police report a growing tendency
on the part of those who make up the
temporary population of the capital to
violate the law, and If a change in atti-
tude is taken by the legal authorities and
cases are put to trial those who have
been defiant or Indifferent to re-
specting the laws and regulations need
blame only themselves for forcing con-
ditiOn.''
Tho superintendent of police has COM
pleted for the consideration of the Com
miSSioners new traffic regulations which
ii adopted, 1t Is contended, will place the
District foremost in the matter of ru,es
The authorities are handicapped, how
ever, in their enforcement of the regula-
tions owing to the street railways being
under control of the interstate commerce
commission.
Maj. Sylvester believes the District
commissioners should fix the rates OIL
speed which may be desired from time
to time He also advocates track Tor
the demonstration of motor vehicles by
dealers to prospective customers.
