TAG
THIEVES BUSY
IN ATLANTA
Secretary of State Cook Urges
Changing as Cure for
Motormania.

Somebody's stolen the license tag
right off my automobile. Gimme an
otherl"
Dr. J. d. Cromer of sos West Peach
tree, was Enthusiastically vexed as he
told Of his loss and made brusque re-
quest for another tag to-day in the
office Of Secretary Of State Cook. He
could not understand why a man who
could afford an automobile should de-
scend to steal another mans license
tag.
Yet that very thing is done much
more frequently than you would i'm
agine," spoke up the secretary of state
and forthwith launched into an inter-
esting tale Of some of the petty and Sc
rious ofenses committed by automo-
pile owners and of the penalties which
he thought should be visited upon the
law violators whether their particular
mania happened to be pilfering tags.
scorching. or running down pedestrians
and light vehicles.
Heavy Fines as Remedy.
If some of these confirmed motor
maniacs were given a fine of from $500
to $1,000 once or twice, or sentenced
TO twelve months in the chaingang
they would not be so keen on burning
up the country roads. crowding the
farmers into the bitches under pain
of participating in a grand smash-up,
stealing license numbers and other
wise bidding defiance to all the laws Of
the road" declared Mr.. Cook.
He said that his office frequently had
information Of a license tag stolen off
one automobile by the owner of an
other, the loser generally appearing to
make application for a new license
number.
Another manner of violating the law
is in the sale of a license number
along with an automobile. The secre-
tary of state said that on one occasion
car was sold by the original owner
to another man and then by the lat
ter TO a third purchaser. Each time
the license tag went along with the
car i'm direct violation of the law. The
first man was fined $500 for trans
ferring his license number Illegally.
The second man was fined about twice
as much, first for obtaining the license
improperly and second for disposing
of it,
The third man We never did get"
added MIR. Cook
Joy Riders Hide Tags.
we frequently have complaints" he
continued. that joy-riding parties. as
soon as they get out onto the country
roads. tie up tAeir license tags 50 that
the number cannot be read and then
open up the machine to the highest
speed" ....... -.....
He had as effective a remedy for this
practice as for the other forms of vio-
lation. He would adopS the simple eX-
pedient in force in some other states
that of compelling the automobile own
ers to paint their license numbers in
legible figures on each side of the ear
so that in case Of speed violation or
accident it would not be- an easy mat
ter to disguise the identity of the cars
owner
In advocating high fines or a chain
gang sentence, Mr. Cook said that the
Inadequate penalties that are inflicted
about the state have practically no de-
terrent effect ......
TO many of the owners. the pay
meut of "A fine of Sl0. $15 ar S25 is in
the nature of "A joke. Make il $500 and
