vIOLATERs TO BE PINCHED

Automobile drivers and others who
disregard the signs along public high
ways which are being improved by the
state highway department, will be
subject to arrest. This is the law,
and although it has not been enforced
for many years, Commissioner Cowan
has just announced that he will send
forth instructions to all his employees
to cause the arrest of any person who
attempts to violate it. The claim is
made that work is retarded by ira
velers, and moreover the road beds
are put in such condition that in
many cases they have to be gone over
at an extra expense. The number of
the auto state license tag will be taken
by the deputy commissioners and ar
rests are sure to follow, and that they
will be prosecuted the state highway
department seems certain. New warn
ing signs will be planted at each end
Of the road where the Improvement is
being made.
This doe, not apply to villages such
as Medina; speeders may still go at
the same old clip, so common Of late.
