operating an auto while in state of
intoxicBtion, and Mr.. Kelley $50. 90 and

r. j. Maltpress reports that the in
crease in the gasoline and kerosene
business in his territory is steady. In
July he inspected 14,848 barrels gaso-
line and 1892 barrels kerosene, August
was some higher, and September shows
total of 1928 barrels. The July
fees were $4,000, August 1921. 80 and
September 1862. Is. During September
1923 inspections, III of which were car
lots Mr. Maltpress when seen this
week said: "a great many persons
think that the oil inspection is of no
use only as political job. Only last
week I was called to inspect three bar
rels of high grade kerosene ordered for
special purpose and shipped from
Whiting, Ind. | found one to just pass
the test required by the state law; the
other two were far below the required
test, and if used might have caused
much damage and possible loss of life.
About four times the amount inspected
in the same months as ten years ago,
and about twice as much as five years
ago."
