looked like an automobile parade and
attracted much attention. The husses
were on their way from Philadelphia

Ward took the drivers into custody
because they we're without Delaware

Black, Captain Kane decided to let the
jitneys proceed. because their drivers
did not intend to do business in Della

Considerable criticism has been
aroused recently because of the arrest
of drivers of automobiles owned by
outside corporations that do not have a
Delaware. license. A law passed by
the last Legislature requires automo-
biles Of corporations in othe- states to
have a Delaware license if they travel
in Delaware.
Some persons have been inclined 10
blame the police who make the ar
rests. but i: IS pointed out that the
traffic policemen merely are enforcing

Some automobilists fear that the
new Delaware law enforcement will
cause reprisals against Delaware au-
