Vermont Gives 'Outlaw'
Auto New Legal
Standing

defendants counsel that the plaintiff
who had bought his automobile and
failed to register it as required by
law, was a trespasser on the high
way.
Dwelling on this point the Court
said: Though his conduct was I'M
lawful, it was a remote legal act, or,
merely a condition and not an APP
proximate cause of the accident. The
accident would have happened ii ale
law in this respect had been fully OBJ
served"
Another important automobile de-
cision recently handed down by the
Supreme Court of New York decid-
ed, principally, the question of the
proper rule of damages to which the
plaintiff was entitled for a truck
which was struck by the engine of
defendants railroad.
NEW YORK DECISION
The court held that since the
plaintiff was entitled to have an au-
tomobile truck as good as the one
she had before the accident, the
measure of damages would be the
difference between the value of the
truck before it was hit and its value
afterwards, and that, unless the re-
pairs of the machine would make it
as good as it was before mot merely
~serviceable), then the cost of repairs
would not be a matter for the jury
to consider in determining damages.
An offer of settlement on the part
of a defendant autoist for personal
injuries to plaintiff and damages to
his horse and wagon is held to be an
indirect admission of LIABILITY by 4 late
decision of the Vermont's Supreme
Court.
In the trial of the casc which gave
rise to this decision plaintiff was al
lowed to testify to a conversation he
had with defendant at the time of the
accident, which included 9 state
ment by the latter that he would set
tie the damages.
DeleIudnI oUIeCtSu W duiitN9'oi'
of this evidence on the ground that
his statement was an offer of com
promise, encouraged and ~protectad
by law as privileged and therefore
not admissible in evidence against
him.
The court held that the evidence
was properly allowed as it did not
appear in the case that at the time
the offer was made there was any
treaty for compromise or settlement
between the parties; that is, over a
disputed claim; but that the defend
ant had made an independent and
voluntary offer to pay and as such it
was properly received in evidence as
an indirect admission of liability.

Reversing the decision rendered By
the Supreme Judicial Court of Mas
~sachusetts some years ago, holding
an unregistered automobile to be an
outlaw OF the highway and its opera
tor q trespasser, the court of last re-
/, sort in Vermont has just decided in
the case of Gilman VS.. the Central
Vermont Railway Company, that
under a statute similar to that in
this state, the owner OF operator or
IN unregistered motor vehicle is not
a trespasser On the highway.
The Massachusetts Supreme Court
held that the prohibition under the
Massachusetts, statutes against the
unregistered automobile was so COM
plcte as to permeate every aspect of
it's operation, putting it entirely OUT
side Of the law.
VERMONT'S OWN VIEW
AS a result of this important Mas
sachusetts decision it followed that a
negligent or careless operator of al
automobile could recover damages
against the owner or operator of an
unregistered car unless the formers
negligence amounted to a wilful,
wanton, intentional or reckless act.
Therefore no duty was owed the
owner or operator of IN unregistered
a except to refrain from wilfully
or recklessly injuring him.
The Vermont Supreme Court re-
viewed at length the cases dealing
with the Massachusetts, doctrine,
but declined to follow it on the
ground that the intention of the YER
mont Legislature, despite the adop-
ton of the language of the Massa-
chusetts statute, was simply to inn
pose apenaltyfor violation of the law
and not to deprive the unregistered
automobile OF tie legal status. The
Vermont court takes the view that
the unregistered character of the au-
tomobile in the given case can be
only the condition and not the cause
of the accident, though its operations
constitute a misdemeanor.
ISSUE ON NEGLIGENCE
In the case which brought forth
the Vermont decision the plaintiff
drove his automobile against a
freight train Of the defendant which
was standing at a grade crossing in
Bethel, Vt, on the line of the de-
PENDANTS railroad. 1t appeared from
the evidence that the plaintiff in APP
preaching the crossing was unable to
stop his car on accounkof the greasy
condition of the road, Which had been
recently oiled.
The court found no evidence to
substantiate the claim that there was
negligence on the part of the defend
ant but declined the ruling asked by

SAYS INVENTION
MEANS FASTEST
AUTO IN THE WORLD

Forty miles on a gallon of kero-
sene oil in forty minutes.
This is the remarkable achieve
ment claimed by Christian Wilson of
No. 10 Clifton street, ~Cliftondale,
for an attachment which he a in
vented for motor vehicles. He al
so claims that by the use of his in
v~ention an automobile motor will
start easily in zero weather without
the aid of batteries or other electrical
equipment.
Wilson states that he has ac-
cepted an offer of $4,000 for his in
vention and he will demonstrate its
efficiency for the motor company
which is backing him in his expert
ments on a trial run in cold weather
the coming winter from Boston to
Chicago.
At the garage in Cliftondale where
Wilson is employed he is now con-
structing a car of his W design for
this run which he claims will be the
fastest "fivver" in the world, cap
able of a speed of 80 to 100 miles an
hour when loaded heavily enough to
keep it on the road. This machine
will burn kerosene exclusively.
He intends to manufacture cars of
this type on a big scale and expects
to be able to market them at less
than $1,000.
Wilson was born in Denmark and
worked in several European auto
mobile factories before coming to
this country. He is now receiving
royalties an two of his patents being
used on cars being built in this coun-
try.

Drop forged in a single piece from bar steel Of
special formula, it is strong enough to bear the
weight of a truck, and %pyromete controlled heat
treatment gives it a steel structure of remarkable

This axle is designed by Buick engineers, forged
and built complete in the Buick factory, directly
under the supervision of the men whose regulations
depend upon it's serviceablity. From it's 1-beam
section to it's drop forged steering connections, every
detail is worked out to perfection. The Buick front
axleis typical of the perfectly controlled quality that
gives Buick cars their unusual capacity for service.
