IN TAX|CAB
HELD Up BY SHERIFF
Their Chauffeur Charged With
Not Having Procured the
Requisite Tag.

Sheriff viett of Montgomery county,
Md. was out scouting for tag.ess auto
mobiles. speed maniacs and other auto
mobile law violators yesterday, and stop
ped a Washington taxicab which ran
the passengers in this ia xicab were John
w. Williams. a former member of the
Maryland legislature, and J. Frank Lew
is. both of Boyds. The two politicians
had been out rounding up the democrats
for tomorrow's primaries.
Sheriff vietts working principle on the
automobile question is that all motor ve-
hicles look alike to him when they are
not tagged. He told the chauffeur that
there was no way out of 1t, he would
have to be arrested and appear in the
Rockville court for trial.
The chauffeur appealed to the sheriff 8
political sympathies. but to no avail.
The two politicians added their appeals,
but the sheriff. as has been stated, be-
lieves that no automobile can be con-
structively tagged-politics or no politics.
Instead of being lenient, the sheriff pur-
sued his quest even further and added
to the discontinue Of the party by an
nouncing that the chauffeur was run
ning his taxicab without a license to
operate. That made matters worse 1t
began to look like the county jail for the
chauffeur. who had no money to use as
collateral. The politicians, however. be-
gan to argue at this point and finally
induced the sheriff to let the chauffeur
go. 4 They promised to produce him in
court at the right moment or to pay
whatever fines might be assessed. The
sheriff finally consented.
The taxicab speeded back to Washing
ton. However. the sheriff forgot to ask
the chauffeur his name.
