WITHOUT The LAW
Board of Automobile EXamin-
ers Exceeds Its Authority
When 1t Examines Drivers OF
Cars in Topeka.
CITY ATTORNEY MAKES IT PLAIN
Acting Under Ordinances Re-
pealed Years Ago.
Authority Is Vested in the City
Clerk.
CITY ATTORNEY MAKES IT PLAIN

That the present board of automo-
bile examiners have placed hundreds
of people in Topeka to unnecessary
trouble, that they are acting under
an ordinance that has been repealed
for years. that they have absolutely
no right to examine any person as :"
his ability to drive car or Hlotor-
cycle, that about all the authority they
now have is to suspend or censor any
viOlator of the present laws, and that
the city commissioners are as unit
against tagging or forcing auto owners
to wear buttons, were some OF me as
sertions made at the city hall TINS
morning.
Il am against any ordinance thai
will make people wear tags or but
tons" said Commissioner Tandy. 1t 8
ridiculous even to think of and Will IN
no wav prevent speeding or other Vlo-
lattons of the law. We now nave
enoueh laws on this subject if the po-
lice department and the auto exam
lining board viii co their duty"
Haydcn's Statement.
All of the commissioners referred
the matter to City Attorney George
Hayden. who stated:
From what l gather by reading
Mr. Traps interview in a Topeka
paper. ! am convinced that the mo-
tor vehicle board of examiners are
not Keeping up Win tiit "
relating to automobiles.
The city clerk informs me that the
motor vehicle board of examiners eX-
anime each applicant and if he pass
a satisfactory examination, they issue
an order on the city clerk to issue
the applicant a license. If they do
this. they are not complying with the
present automobile ordinance. The
automobile ordinance which is practi-
cally in effect now was passed May
Is. 1913. That ordinance gave the
motor vehicle board of examiners the
right to examine each applicant, but
an ordinance, was passed October 10,
1914 which took away from this
board the right to make an examina-
ton of the applicant and gave that
authority to the city clerk About all
the power left to the motor vehicle
board of examiners. under the pres
ent ordinance is that they shall have
power to suspend for a stated definite
period any driver who is found guilty
by the board of violating any of the
terms or provisions of the ordinance.
But as to making an examination of
the applicant. this authority has been
taken away from them. The present
ordinance in regard to the examina-
ton OF an applicant is:
The city clerk is hereby author
lied to issue drivers certificates to
all persons of the required age and
who appear to be sound and .;ompe-
tent TO drive motor vehicle. The
certificate shall be issued without
pay
Opposed to Tags.
one of the amendments suggested
is that a fee of 25 cents be charged
and that they must renew their Ii
cense each year and pay their fee

each year This, of course, will not
help the situation in the least. An
other suggestion in the proposed
amendment is that each driver be
compelled to wear a badge or button
so that he could be easily distinguish
ed as being licensed. 1 do not believe
that the owners of cars would care
to drive a car around through the
streets of the city carrying big
badge on the lapel of their coat to
show that they were licensed drivers
THE ordinance in force provides
that the registration number shall be
conspicuously displayed on the rear
of each motor vehicle and that the
number shall not be less than four
inches high and each stroke shall be
at least one-half inch wide, and that
such number plate at night shall be
so lighted as to be plainly visible at
a distance of fifty feer. 1t seems to
me that this number plate would be
more readily aScertained than any
button or badge upon the lapel of a
drivers coat.
Il think 1t has been the experience
of the police department that the dan
gers and reckless driving are not con-
fined to the new beginner, but to the
experienced driver. 1t has been sug-
gested that there are a great number
of drivers in Topeka who do not take
out drivers license. This may be true,
but / believe that the great majority
of the people who drive cars in the
city take out a drivers certificate and
that it is only a small number who
do not meet the requirements of the
ordinance in this regard. AS 1 I'M
derstand it, the violators of this Or
dinance violate it uniutentionally; that
is, they become reckless in operating
their cars, not so much from lack
of knowledge of the traffic laws or
skin in managing their cars, but from
1 n aniY- nj bill n
drive at a high rate of speed and get
away without any accident
A Fine Is Provided.
1.-The ordinance provides a fine for
reckless driving of. any kind, but
there is provision i'm the ordinance
which I think meets the situation bet
ter than a fine and that is that the
board of examiners have the power to
suspend for a stated definite period
any driver who is found guilty by
said board of violating any of the
terms or the provisions of the ordi-
nance. L believe that if this board
would suspend for a month or two
months some of the reckless drivers of
this city that this would remedy the
evil better than by taking them down
to the police station and filming them.
believe that the present ordinance
meets the situation pretty well, and I
cannot see that the amendments help
in any material way. or course, this
matter is up to the board of COM
missioners and if I am instructed to
draw the amendments I will do so, but
these are my ideas in regard to the
matter
Charles H. Trap, president, and
George W. StansfieId, secretary, of the
automobile examining board appeared
before the city commissioners at their
meeting Monday morning and asked
that an ordinance be passed which
would force drivers of autos and mo-
torcycleS to wear tags or buttons in
order to aid the present board in dis
tinguishing violators of the law. They
also asked that they be given control
of traffic in the city.

1t doesn't require great mental eff
fort to think back into the years
when Frank Daniels used to CONFUSE
the galleries at the Grand. In the
Vitagraph comedy What Happened
to Father" Daniels achieves as many
laughs from the audience as he did
when he starred here in Little
Puck 1t is one of the best Vitagraph
comedies that has been shown in To-
peka.
The feature act billed as the Origi-
nal Act Beautiful has sufficient reason
for its name. Living statue" acts
are no novelty for the Novelty but tbs
substitution of the Arabian horse ane
the handsome English setter dogs fo1
the nymphs and goddesses of the Gus
tomary act are relief. The desert
scenes are well conceived and the
lighting effects are good.
Tom Davies and company put on a
clever tabloid with rather more in the
company than generally is seen on
Kansas circuits. To Helene Hamilton
and Jack Barnes belong the distinc-
ton of exhibiting a new gag" new
to Topeka audiences at least
AS for the first number the audience
agreed heartily with the naming of the
act ut Is Too Much 1t is a good
bill.
