PARIS|ANS ARE AIMING
AGAINST AUTO BANDITRY

PARIS, March 3O-The sale of piss
tolls in Paris has increased fifteen fold
since the latest exploits of the ruth
less automobile bandits. This fact, as
certained by the correspondent of the
Daily News, is only one phase of the
excitement which is sweeping over
the nation as the result of series of
daring crimes in which bandits have
shot down all corners at sight.
Many are urging the adoption of the
long delayed law regulating the car
rying of weapons; others argue that
since criminals are still able to arm
themselves, buying guns in Belgium
if necessary, it is incumbent upon all
citizens to be alert and armed for self
defense. This thought prevails wide
ly, hence there are probably more
armed men in France today than in
any other civilized country. The idea
of carrying a revolver appeals to the
Latin imagination, and the chamber of
deputies is likely to debate long be-
fore passing a law making it difficult
for citizens to protect themselves by
carrying firearms.
The newspapers devote whole pages
daily to the alleged movements of the
phantom bandits, and cinematograph
shows are advertising pictures of the
automobile crimes. Men, women and
children are talking on the subject
and mothers are hushing their babies
by terrifying them with the names of
Bonnet, GARNER and Carrouy. Some
writer's compare life in Paris 20 life
in California in the days described by
Bret Harte, while others assume that
it is like life in the United States to.
