dissatisfaction was on the part of those
officers who have been accustomed to
small rooms and crowded conditions
They did not like the big rooms in their
new quarters and a result has been the
building of many partitions. Some 9th.

and have the extra partitions taken
out.
Most officers and employees have con.
tinued TO lament the remote location Of
the capitol from the business district.
Having been quartered in office build

SPEEDING ON
THE DECREASE
Police Officials Of County and City
Succeeding in Campaign Against
Fast Driving.

The speed with which the arrest Of
Walter Scales, the negro auto driver,
who yesterday ran over small negro
boy on Carrollton Avenue, was accom-
plished emphasizes the thoroughness
, of the system for breaking up speed
ing recently adopted by the Sheriff's
Office and the City Hall.
The violations of the speeding law
have been numerous and conditions
recently got to such a state that It
appeared as if car owners and drivers
wilfully ignored the limitations stated
by the state, county, and city govern
ments. Every effort under the old
system resulted in only a few arrests
but since the change better results
have been gotten and arrests are more
numerous. There has been a marked
decrease in the violations, the fear
Of the law evidently being brought to
the violators.
