read that the directors were not con-
templating the dissolution of the cor
poration "either voluntarily or at the
demand of the government" Later
Judge Gary had the statement amend
ed so as to eliminate the phrase "at
the demand of the government" and
substituted an expression OF belief

CRUSADE STOPS
AUTO SPEEDING
Magistrate Thinks LaWbreakerS

NO ROADSIDE COURT HELD
Slower Running Throughout South
Jersey Results From Efforts of
Cloud and Warrick-100 Machines
Caught Exceeding Speed Limit

Especial Trenton Correspondence
Trenton-Magistrate Cloud of Wood
bury, who is making war on automo-
bile speed fiends, with the county and
State back of him, did not establish
a court on the Glassboro-Westvill
stone road, as was suggested by In
spector of Motor Vehicles Pedigree,
believing that the notices sent to the
many alleged ~lawbreakers who had
previously failed to appear, will have
the effect of bringing them to Wood
bury. Since this notice was issued
the Magistrate has heard from some
who state they will appear or pay
up"
Road Supervisor Warrick kas again
on the road and secured several addi-
tional numbers of machines that were
exceeding the speed limit. Probably
no road in South Jersey is more
travelled by machines Saturday and
Sunday than this, and there is no
stretch CT hi hway that off ers str ng
Incentive to speed. During the sum-
mer about 100 machines have been
stopped within three miles of West
ville-the owners numbers taken and
the proprietors summoned to pay a
fine or state why they should not do
SO. Only about 10 per cent. of these
have acknowledged that they were
going over 25 miles an hour. Fully 30
per cent. said they were going close
to it, some ~speedmeters registering
as heal 24k, while a few declared
they were going below 20. 1t is the
fellow who frankly admits that he
was probably going some who gets
off the easiest. Some have appeared
with a lawyer and put up a fight and
others declared they were not out at
all with their machines on the day
charged.
The crusade has resulted in slower
running all over South Jersey, and
Cloud and Warrick have been COM
plimented on all sides for their stand
in the matter. While the end Is not
yet it is expected that next court day
will clear the docket of a majority OF
the cases. After that stringent meas
ures will be adopted against those
who fail to appear.
