Owners Reported in Deal
One of Prisoners Says He Re-
ceived 500 Each for Max

Discovery of a farm at Unionville,
N. j., which has been used for the stor-
ing of automobile parts, instead of for
agricultural pursuits, was made yes
terday by the Newark police The po-
lice believe the discovery will result in
several automobile owners recovering
their stolen cars--or what is left of
them.

ted wrecking at least one Of the cars,
and said it had been done with the
knowledge Of the owner. Berger con-
fessed, IT is said, that he assisted in the
dismantling of several machines. He
said Permison wrecked more than one

that his share from the sale Of parts OF
car amounted to from $40 to 500 on
each transaction. and that he sometimes
received Sl00 for making an automo-
bile disappear" While the police are
convinced that some of the machines
that have been junked on the Union
vile farm We're "stoen" with the con-
sent of their owners, to collect insurance
money, they also are certain that several
cars that found their way to the form
were taken there by automobile thieves.
On the farm the police found nine
chassis, seven bodies, many license
plates and innumersble parts Several
license plates were found beneath q
layer of stones on the bank of a little
brook on the farm. The place belongs
to John H. kedlan and is known as the
Springfield Floral Farms. kedlan said
the place was rented about November
l by Perrnison. The police say that the
owner had no knowledge of how it was
being used.
Through the license plates that were
found the police have traced the own
ers of several Of the cars, but their
names are being withheld The farm
is located on Old Mill Road on the bor-
der between Essex and Union counties.
