SWOOP DOWN
ON AUTO LAW
V|OLATORS HERE
State Authorities d--AII Will
be Arraigned in Court Thurs
day Morning

A wholesale raid upon all operators
of motor driven vehicles was conduct
ed on Saturday afternoon by ten state
inspectors with the assistance of three
local policemen, and 1t was woe unto
the motorists, who, taking advantage
of the ideal weather conditions afford
ed by nature, decided to take spin,
ebut who neglected to take with them
q most important and necessary item,
nam.ly, their drivers license. At the
end of the afternoon, the inspectirs
and patrolman compared notes and it
was then ascertained that twenty
seven had been apprehended.
All was well till along towards !
o'clock, when the inspectors from the
state department swooped down upon
the city determined to take into GUS
tody and fine heavily all those who
had not in their possession drivers
licenses, or who in any other way
could be detected in a violat tion OF the
motor vehicle law. Many there were
who all unspectingly decided to try out
the merit of, their respective cars. and
not watching the speedometer placed
too much pressure on their eccelera-
tors thus exceeding the speed limit,
and were overhauled by the inspectors
or were called upon to halt
and explain their actions
The inspectors assisted by Patrol
men +. Seiboth, E, Morgan and Fitz-
X,
ket street, Smith street, New Bruins
wick avenue and Amboy avenue, and
every car. without any exceptions, that
passed their way was stopped and
demands to see licenses were made.
There were many excuses offered but
excuses did not go with the
inspectors. Some asserted, and very
vigorously at that, that in a hurry TO
get out in the fine air, they had neg
~1eeted to change the wallet with their
license in 1t to the apparel in which
they we're then clothed. But that was
no legitimate excuse either.
A regular procession came to and
from police headquarters all the after
noon. Some OF the drivers were pa
rolled and others were compelled to
deposit a cash bond as surety for their
appearance in court, while still others
were served with summons They will
all be arraigned Thursday forenoon
