Bill introduced To
Stop Theft OF Autos

ATLANTA, June 81. - Every
Georgia man who owns an automo-
bile or who expects to own one
should be interested in the passage
of bill, to be presented at the ap-
preaching session of the Legislature.
which is designed to stop the steal
ing OF automobiles by making it
practically impossible to sell a
stolen car. 1t is being backed by
prominent members OF both houses
and is endorsed by all the organiza-
tons interested in the automobile
industry. A similar bill passed the
Senate last summer but never came
up for a vote in the house, owing
to the congestion of the last few
days.
The bill will follow the lines of
the law in successful operation in
Michigan and several other states.
1t provides, in brief, that when
ever a car is sold the seller must
fill out bill of sale giving the en-
CINE number and other Identifying
marks. One copy out this is to be
sent the Secretary Of State and one
retained by the buyer of the car. The
buyer shall report to the sheriff of
his county within ten days and the
sheriff will inspect the car and see
that it Checks" with that described
in the bill of sale. There is very
little red tape" required. Penalties
are provided for altering serial num-
bers of automobiles and for forgery
or alteration of bills of sale
The bill will protect not on1v the
present owners of cars, but hun
dreds OF innocent purchasers of used
automobiles. While most of the thefts
occur in the larger cities, the small
town and country residents are fire.
quently "stung" by buying car
from a, stranger who gives no proof
OF legal possession. The car is after
wards traced and recovered and the
purchaser loses his money and has
no redress. Hundreds of. such cases
we're reported in Georgia this year.
