Missouri and New York state each
have laws almost identical, making it
felony for an autoist to fail to stop
in case he has an accident involving
others, and give his name and ad-
dress, besides rendering such assist
snce as is in his power. But while
the Missouri supreme court has sus-
tanned the measure in force in Its
jurisdiction, the. New York courts have
declared an almost similar statute
unconstitutional on the same line of
reasoning. ..
Here is the way the Missouri case
is reported, In not decidedly friendly
fashion:
"a st. Louis commission merchant
had the misfortune to run down a
negro, killing him almost instantly. In
stead of stopping to investigate and
give help if possible, he put on all
power and escaped. When subsequent
ly apprehended he interposed as de-
fence that he could not be compelled
to furnish evidence discriminating him.
self
"The case went Immediately to the
Supreme Court of the State in the
form Of an appeal to quash the infor-
nation, which was denied. The court
held that to require a motorist to stop
after his car had injured person and
give his name and address is in no
sense esking for discriminating evil
dence, It simply ELECTS the particulars
upon which en- intelligent investigation
of the affair may be based

How Auto Trucks Will
Solve the Garbage Problem

The Investigations made during the
past week or two by the special COM
mittee of the Central Improvement
League into the feasibility of motor
trucks as garbage carriers for the
city, has created a good deal of in
terest among auto men, as well as
among the citizens of the town gener-
ally. AS might have been expected,
the committee YVES soon convinced that
motors are really the only economical
way at present in sight, of keeping the
city clean. 1t is also significant that
the report of the committee was
promptly adopted, and the League
went on record as strongly favoring
the motorizing of the city garbage
department, as the first step towards
the establishing of free garbage
service.
Some Of the facts discovered by the
Improvement committee in it's investi-
cations are very interesting. In order
to get down to the bottom of cost of
buying and operating a motor truck,
letters were addressed to many of
the firms at the present time using
these vehicles in their business. Prac-
tically without exception, the reports
were most highly favorable although
as a matter of fact the very fact that
these firms continue to make use of
motor cars in their own business, is
the best possible testimony of the
efficiency and economy of these vehi-
cles
The International Motor Car Com
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-05-18

pany, of New York, hes lately COM
piled very carefully worked out table
of comparative cost between motor
truck haulage and that by horses. The
figures are in favor of the auto truck
by from a third to a half, according
to the size of teams and trucks COM
pared. From the fact that cost and
maintenance of horses are very con-
siderably higher than they are in main
land cities, in which the comparison
was made, the difference should be
even greater here. The difference in
cost per ton mile in vehicles of one
ton capacity, for instance, was thirty.
six cents for horses as against TWEEN
ty cents, for the auto truck; and for
three tons vehicles, twenty cents for
horses as against thirteen cents for
motors.
This of course takes nothing into
account of the matter of time, in
which particular the auto has from
four to six or eight times the ad-
vantage over the horse. Even with
the cost per ton mile the same, this
item of time would warrant the city's
adopting motor trucks for garbage col
lection, since on long hauls, such as
from Kaimuki, Waikiki, Manoa, Nuu-
anu, Pauoa and Kalihi, the cost of
hauling by horses is almost prohibit
tive, owing to the fact that but one
load per day can be made. A motor
truck could make from four to six
trips to all these places in a day,
and do it easily

Weekly Letter Of Won
Hamm-YOung Company

The s. s. Wilhelmina brought for
the Won Hamm-Young Company three
of the always popular Cadillacs, two
touring cars and one torpedo.
The handsome torpedo, finished in
gray was especially ordered by Mr..
A. w. T. Bottomley. 1t is finished with
nickel trimmings, is equipped with
demontable rims and has in addition
to the famous electric self-starter, the
Delco system of electric lighting
throughout, air pump for initiating the
tires, and other standard equipment so
well known on the Cadillac cars.
Interesting news was contained in a
letter just received by the Won Hamm-
Young Company, telling of devastst-
ing fire and tons of water which were
poured on a Cadillac car without hav-
ing any effect on the self-starter or
lighting system,
One Of the fine Cadillac touring
cars was shipped this week to G. ].
Schoening & Company, of Wailul1u,
Maui, for delivery to a prominent
Maui man.
Amongst the cars which have lately
come to the notice Of automobiles
is the Kissel Kar, which has won for
itself thousands of enthusiastic admir-
ers all over the mainland. The Won
Hamm-Young Company took the
agency for this car only short time
ago, but have already delivered a
number of these cars on the Islands,
all of which are doing excellent work.
One of these handsome cars, a pow
erful thirty h. p. model, finished in
gray and black, was shipped this week
to c. ]. Schoening G Company, for
delivery to Mr.. w! H. Engle, of Wal
luku, Maui. These cars are rapidly
growing in favor, owing to their splen-
did workmanship and reliability.
Another Kissel Kar sale made by
the Won Hamm-Young Company was a
Police Patrol to the City of Honolulu.
After investigating a great many cars,
the Board of Supervisors decided to
purchase the Kissel Kar. This car
will be equipped with specially built
body to carry sixteen passengers, it
will have the latest improvements of
the police patrols used on the main
land, and it so constructed that it can
be instantly changed into an emer-
gency ambulance, stretcher being
provided to take care of the patient.

HUBBARD AND THE

What Ebert Hubbard had to say
after a trip through the Chalmers
factory:
81 ride in a Chalmers.
81 have Chalmers that has been
in almost constant use for three years,
in all sorts of weather and on all kinds
or roads.
"This car has never been towed to
town; never been in the ditch; never
had crouch nor gone on strike.
1T hes been run fast-but not too
fest.
"The man who runs car as fast
as it can go, is as big fool as the
man who tells all he knows.
81 am proud of my Chalmers-I am
proud of being a Chalmers man.
am proud that Hugh Chalmers is my
friend.
"a Chalmers car looks like Chalmers
it is honest, strong, effective and
efficient. Also it looks"
also I am glad to say that the
Chalmers workers who make cars are
good lockers and look good. Probably
because they are.

AUTO LAW UPHELD IN MISSOURI
IS INVALIDATED IN NEW YORK

no legal bubble is to invalidate a
statute which so commends itself to
enlightened judgment and plain COM
mon sense"
In New York the case of Edward T.
Rosenheimer brought up like con-
tention. Rosenheimer drove a car
which struck rig in which were rid
ing two women and a man. One of
the women was killed. Rosenheimer
Yves indicted as having eVaded the
CallRn law.
Justice Grain, in sustaining the de-
murrer to the indictment, said: 1T is
one thing to require operators of mo-
tor vehicles to carry Identifying evil
dence before such persons have brok-
en- the law and quite another to de-
mand either that they make self-ac-
cusation in case of infringement or
furnish in such case link in a chain
of criminatory evidence against them
selves. The former can be lawfully
done. The latter violates the Con-
stitution."
Later on the Appellate Division sus-
tanned the demurrer. Presiding Justice
Ingraham, in his opinion, said that the
statute did not relate to a criminal
action, nor did 1t make the declare
ton Of the person operating the auto
tomobile admissible in evidence in any
criminal proceeding. ...5 a.I Ha-Ia
The language of the section in the
Callan law is this: ANY person oper-
ating a motor vehicle who, knowing
that injury has been caused to per-
son or property due to the culpability
of the said operator or to accident,
leaves the place of said injury or
accident without stopping and giving
his name, residence, including street
and street number, and operators Ii
