of report from Inspector Pedigree,
Commissioner Lippincott. of the de-
partment of motor vehicles, today
summarily revoked both the drivers
license and the right to use manufac-
turers' registration markers of Will
lam ]. AitlSin, of Camden. Pedigree
charged that Aitl1in had sold an au-
tomobile to Coe & Tweedy, of Cam
den. and that some time afterward
he stole the machine and sold 1T to
Thomas B. Warner.
The complaint also alleged that the
car sold by Aitkin was taken by him
to Philadelphia, to be repaired, and
that while there Aitkin had the Sc
rial number changed and the car
again registered at Mount Holly.
Since this incident Aitkin has been
missing, and it is the belief of the
inspector that he has been implicated
in other transactions of a similar
character for some time.
