La po, cla y
los AUTOMOBILES

Varias personas Sc acercan "a nuestra
redacci6n protestando de los modos des-
corteses con que la policia detlene los
AUTOMOBILES en- la carretera de Santurce
Tenemos entendido que no Sc guardian
las mismas consideraciones con aquellos
AUTOMOBILES que van a toda velocldad
como con aquellos que la nevan mlnlma
siendo, por 10 visto, La conslgna oticlal
que deben ser detenidos los unos y los
otros sin distinction de classes.
Esto es claro, tiene SUI razon de ser en-
10 absurdo del sistema adoptado por la
policia, colocando a dos guardias cien
metros uno del otro y queriendo, en- tan
corto trecho, comprobar 81 la velocldad
es excesiva. En- un espacio de clen me-
tros, puede ocurrir que el autom0vll Sc
yea obligado aumentar la velocldad
por diferentes motives, bien porque ne
cesite salvar q evitar un obstaculo, Q
bien porque en- la maniobra de hacer
los cambios, como saben los senores po-
licias, sea, como es, de todo punto nece-
sario acelerar la marcha del vehlculo.
Por otra parte, este sistema Sc presta
a la Iburla mas in1cua, pues los chauf-
feurs, avisados del peligro por los COM
paneros que va hayan pasado por las
h0rcas caudinas, tienen buen cuidado de
disminuir la velocidad en- cuanto aper-
ciben un guardia 8 un paisano que Sc
les antoja policlS secreta.
Nosotros somos partidarios de que Sc
regule la velocidad de los automobiles,
iya 10 creo!; pero no por este slstema
que Sc presta injusticias por parte de
La polic1a y a burlas por parte de los
chauffeurs, sino por ell sistema adopta-
do en- todas partes ell 1nico practice, y
que consiste en- colocarse los dos guar
dias q un kil6metro mas de distancia y
comunicarse telefonicamente ell n1mero
de los AUTOMOBILES que pasan y a La no
ra que pasan.
En- cuanto a las formas deseorteses
usadas por nuestros polic1as, hemos de
decir que NOS parecen impropias, no So
10 >porque al dirigirse al lchauffeur que
conduce el automovil debe tenerse en-
cuenta que no es aqu6l solo quien 10 ocu-
pa generalmente; sino, porque habiendc
puedado demostrado de una manera
palmaria que el sistema adoptado es alb
surdo, E injusto por ende en- muchas
ocasiones, no es en- todas que los poll
cias nevan La raz6n y no siendo de bue-
ma urbanidad levantar ell grito cuando
Sc tenga, peor ha de ser levantarlo GUAM
do mo Sc este muy SECURE de tenerla . .

Heavy Drop in Wheat-Other

Bullish enthusiasm was not strohs
enough Yesterday to Withstand the erect
of the perfect harvesting weather OF the
last few DAYS, and there was little ac-
tivity OH the buying side OF the Market
with longs finding It difficult TO unload
The net result of the days comparatively
small trading was a drop Of llsc In the
July option, with other months shoWlhs
a loss Of Vase. Corn also ran INTO
heavy selling movement. and with
steady decrease I'm bulish enthusiasm the
market lost hsGlc net for the day. oats
followed the other grains. although IL was
the general opinion that the crop hau
been seriously damaged. The decline
however. did not approach the drop IN
wheat and corn, being only h92sc net for
the day.
Dealers In coffee were apatheuc ana
with the new season opening to-day ana
recent developments against active DUST
ness. the market was barely steady ana
prices showed net loss at the close OF D
TO points. The feature OF the coHee
situation to-day is the fact that the fal-
ing off I'm the demand from consuminS
dealers indicates loss In actual con-
sumption, for the last season OF from
$50 900 to 100000 bags. This Is sufhcieh'
reason for spectators being cautious
about dealings until trading In the ne"
