State Inspectors Here

Six State Automobile Inspectors, in
charge of Chief Inspector Shinn, of
Burlington, visited Penns Grove on
Tuesday evening in order to learn
how the various laws affecting auto
mobiles we're being enforced. Many
violations have been reported and
about twenty auto drivers have been
apprehended and fined, but under the
direction of Eugene McAdams, rep
resenting the State Department in
this district, and the efficient work of
the police force, violations of the
laws have been materially lessened
and a much better condition of affairs
exist than was the ease a year ago.
