the motorists who try to climb Puts

them all, and on q busy day there is
always at least one ear stuck on the
hill. There is also always consid-
cradle part Of the population of Green
wich grouped around the top Of the
hill at point where commanding
view is to be had. Although there is
sign at the feot Of the hill which
Calls for no more than one ear in
either direction at any one time, this
regulation is never respected.
The hill is a terror to novice drivers
and aise to those who are not quite so
much noviees, because it is deceivinp
in appearance and it is only when
about halfway up the second install

really on n hill. Sometimes, even with
quite powerful cars. it is case of
first speed for the last few yards, and
unless an automobile is in good condi-

We have suggestion: Put some of

Dyer Law Acts as Check
On the Automobile Thief

In recent bulletin of the National
Automobile Dealers Association it is
stated that general reduction in the
number of automobiles stolen is ex-
pected this year because of the fact
that interstate transportation Of stolen
automobiles is made Federal offense
under the Dyer law. 1t is pointed out
that the national motor vehicle theft
law, however, did not become effective
until November, 1919. Numerous con-
victions have been made under this act
during the present year.
According to figures compiled by the
association, total of 31,e49 autome-
biles were stolen in the nineteen "in-
dex' cities Of the country in 1919. The
figures represent an increase in thefts
OF S3.5 per cent over the preceding
year, the association states.

side. and perhaps the automobilist's
recollections of that town would be
more pleasant. It has always been a
source of wonder why some Of the very
richest communities have the very
worst roads. There is hardly worse
stretch to be found than the hill by
which one enters into Greenwich.
