Waterloo Complains .
Local Motor Cop Is
Too Keen on the Job

The chamber of commerce of Wa
terloo acting, no doubt, for Water
| loo automobile dealers, has COM
planned to the Marshalltown Club
that the motor cop of this city is too
active in summoning drivers of cars
being driven from Des Moines TO
Waterloo with, or without, perhaps,
paper Car in Transit" tags. The
| Waterloo. commercial body asked the
| Marshalltown Club to use it's influ-
ence to the end that there might be
| "A less stringent enforcement OF the
law in this city The letter has been
| filed with the city council.
Without knowing whether Water
loo dealers have just complaint, OBJ
servers have noted that cars being
driven thru the city in transit to
! dealers elsewhere have often had
only one card board number or no
number at all.
Dealers might do we'll to read the
| following excerpt from the law on
this subject:
"a motor vehicle that is being
brought into this state from another
state either for use o. for sale there
in, may be driven upon the public
| highway for a period of not to ex-
coed ten days, provided it shall carry,
both on the front and rear paste-
board card bearing the words Gar
! in Transit" and the date of p,I--
chase. The words, letters and fig
nres upon said card shall be of the
same size and general character Qet-
tiers and figures not less than one
inch in height except License APP
piled For" which must be not less
than two inches in heighD as those
required In this section for the cards
showing that application has been
made for license
1t will be noted that the law spec
flies that such cars shall have two
card board numbers and that 1t also
specifies cars being brought into
the state" not cars being driven
within the state. The complaint
from Waterloo is regarding cars be-
ing driven from Des Moines to Wa
terloo.
