them that they will not continue the violation of this law and we feel that this is a better way to settle this mat ter than 5a return indictments at this time.
 We have also investigated the un- lawful sale of cigarettes and have had the parties who have been violat- ing this law, including the wholesale men of Batesville before us and prac- tically every one has agreed before the Grand Jury and with committees sent to them by the Grand Jury that they will not sell any more cigarettes and the Grand Jury as a body con siders this the better way to handle this matter at this time.
 Ne find that all justices of the peace have filed their reports as the law requires, excepting the following whe have failed to report. Grant Goodman, Oil Trough Township.
 We especially recommend that the net Grand Jury indict any one who shall sell extracts as a beverage and also that any person selling cigar ettes be indicted for each and every sale thereof and also that every per saa who shall open his place of busi- ness on Sunday and sell cold drinks aeether unnecessary articles of mer-
 aandise be investigated thoroughly sfa irdirtea

TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS
 BRING MANY ID GRIEF

Since the first of the month 305 motor cars have been tagged by traffic policemen. The tag calls upon the car owner to appear in police court and answer a charge of violating the traffic ordinance This record shows an aver age of more than 20 traffic law viola
 tions every day and the actual number
 is perhaps almost double this, as the
 police do not claim to be able to tag every offender.
 Double parking and heading into the curb are among the most c2Gnmon Vlo-
 lations Careless parking is not only
 in violation of the law, but it also creates one of the greatest obstacles to the maintenance of traffic. In many
 cases cars have been found parked double at places where they could easily have been properly run up against the curbing. Open mufflers
 cause several motorists to be brought
 into court each week. while an average
 of about 15 speeders and reckless drivers appear before Judge Thomas during the course of a month.
 l A motorist generally has very good l excuse to offer for any infraction of | the traffic ordinance. One speeder re- gently claimed he was taking medicine to a woman who had been burned in
 trash fire. Testimony proved that i the alleged delivery was being made an hour before the woman was burned. l Another speeder asserted he was hur- rying some passengers to train. He 1 was arrested at o'clock in the after l noon which is more than two hours before the scheduled time for any pas l senger train departure from Phoenix Other offenders have other excuses.
