MINNEAPOLIS IS EXTRA

motorists arc especially appreciated

other variety. Chief among the other
variety" might bs mentioned csr-
tain small town on famous turnpike

rived most OF its revenue from motor
lists captured In Its midst. Tho method
was simple. Tho mayor. who COM
binch in his person tho offices OF chief
of police and magistrate as we'll, would
sit by the roadside and tethcr his
horse 80 as TO obstruct tho highway.
As each motorist came along no was
stopt. arrested. tried. and fined on tho
spot. under a speed ordinance which
varied with tho speed OF the motorist
captured. Tho standard tribute cx-
acted by this modern Robin Hood was
$40. On rush days tho receipts were
enough to mako a profitecr green with
envy. Tho town waHcd rich. and the
mayor stood high in ,ocal favor until
his particular form OF banditry was
squelched on appeal to a higher
court But in Minneapolis they well
come tho motorists. and practically
Eivc them tho freedom OF tho city. The
mayor. writes his secretary. .Arvid A.
