: MORE AUTOISTS
FINED BY SQUIRE
Yerkes, at MiIIbourne, Frees
Two Others and Makes
Nine Pay Costs
MAKES TRUCE WITH CLUB

Two motorists were fined, two were
discharged and nine paid S4.2O costs
each in Squire Yerkes' "fine mill' at
Milbourne this morning.
One Of the men fined. James McEl :
hinny, 3618 Lancaster avenue. declared
he was not in his car on the date of
the alleged violation of the speed regu
lations, but his son was driving. He
refused Yerkes' suggestion for a further
hearing at which his son could testify
and offered to pay the fine-S14.2O
which the Squire accepted.
Three defendants, members Of the
keystone Automobile Club, which has
been fighting the "tining squire were
discharged by him. He declared the dis
charges were on the merits Of the cases
and not because of any alleged threats
of the club to "gct" him.
Robert w. Beatty, attorney for the
club. who represented the members, re-
iterated former assertions that the club
would come to the defense Of any mem
bers who thought themselves unjustly
prosecuted. but today's sessions were
not marked by any legal tips between
himself and the squire. who yesterday
threatened to prohibit Beatty from
practicing in his court.
The Squire issued n statement ad-
dressed to Beatty this morning. 1t re-
pcats his warning to the attorney made
yesterday and continues:
Zone of your executives saw fit to
make a statement that I was unfit for
this Office. / can now see why this
statement was made. / had released,
through the courtesy of some of your
executives, prisoners who were to ap-
pear for a hearing. When your de-
mands became so great that it was an
impossibility for me to keep on extend =
ing this courtesy 1t was then circulated
that your club would put me out OF
business.
II came to the conclusion that I
could no longer extend this courtesy to
you because automObilists who were not
members of your club were allowed to
shift for themselves. In fairness to
them / had to treat your members the
same as the rest; otherwise, If I had
allowed them to keep on breaking the
law your club or you would have shown
no interest in these proceedings what
soever. In fairness to all in a court
of justice, justice must be equal"

MONTGOMERY ASSESSORS
BAlK AT HIGH TAX RULE
Ordered to Assess at Real Value, Say
They'd Be Kicked Out

N0rristOwn, Pa, Sept. 2.-AsSessors
in Montgomery County are having their
own troubles.
When taken to task yesterday by the
County Commissioners for low assess
ment Of real estate, the several hundred
assessors from the county admitted they
were afraid of their jobs il they COM
piled with the law. which provides that
property be- assessed at what it would
bring at "a bona fde sale, after due
public notice.
One assessor said he would be kicked
out of Office and might as well leave
town if he raised the assessment there.
Commissioner Hatfield told the as
SCISSORS that real estate in Montgomery
County, especially large properties, was
not assessed high enough and that it
was up to the assessors to follow the
law, which called for a 100 per cent
assessment. Although bitterly con-
tested by some Of the assessors in the
upper end Of the county, resolution
was adopted that every assessor live
up to the law and his oath of Office.
Some of the assessors who voted for
the resolution frankly said they would
not be guided by ii, and the resulting
situation is of the clarity Of mud AL
bert Lee, Of Lower Merton, supporter
Of the resolution, said much of the
property in Lower Merton is now said
to be assessed as low as % per cent.
Most OF the property in Montgomery
County is now said to be assessed at
from 20 to 10 per cent.
