DRIVERS GET SHORT MEASURE
Motorists Should Take Precautions to Avoid Being Robbed by Gas
 oline SWin6lers.

So extensive has become the prac tice of giving short measure in gaso- line by the small dealers of New York city that the commissioner of weights and measures has issued a public warning to all owners and drivers of motor cars to be on the lookout for the swindle, says the Boston Post. He advises the driver of every conner cial or pleasure car to make sure he is getting all he pays for by carrying a liquid measure bearing the approval Of the city.
 For a year, says the commissioner, he has been receiving complaints from automobilists of short measure from sale stations which have sprung up like mushrooms all through the city. In some cases the shortage of ten gallon purchase has reached two gal Ions. Criminal convictions and civil penalties have followed in each case 2
 We have heard of no particular com piaints of that kind of fraud here in Massachusetts; perhaps we have a more honest set of dealers. Still. it might not be amiss for the motorist to have a measure on hand in case of suspected shortage
