the line of enforcing the automobile
laws?" was the question asked Sec
rotary of State Frank w. Ball and
that gentleman replied:
We'll, we are doing everything we
can do, under the law and with such
assistance as we can get from
municipal officers and judges. Our
inspectors are instructed to keep as
sharp an outlook as possible for Of
tenders and to show no favoritism,
using the courts wherever necessary.
Their orders are implicit and strict.
The laws are there 10 be obeyed and
we are on duty to see that they are,
obeyed, if possible. OF course no
official or inspector can be in more
than one place at a time and it is
physical impossibility to see every
violation. We get what we can.

the increased amount of punishment
given persistent offenders in some
courts. 1t is time that the persistent
reckless automobile drivers were re-

The county attorney refused to listen to the proposal and is said to have suddenly left the room, leaving the committee alone.
