One License Tag
Missing Is N OF
7 Violation Says Cass
PAGE6

In the case of the state of Florida
against H. L. Ernest of Palatka,
charged with violation of the Au-
tomobile license law by operating an
automobile with only one license tag,
Judge Case of Hastings, yesterday
ruled that the prosecuting officer
must show more evidence than a
mere driving of an automobile
through the town of Hastings.
In effect this ruling holds that it
must be shown that the violation of
the law must have existed for a
longer length of time than was pro-
per and reasonable to procure a new
license plate.
This news will be received with a
great deal of pleasure by great
number of Palatkas who have felt
the preemptory hands of the law
reach out after them and squeeze
the earnings of a hard weeks labor
from their pockets, merely because
misfortune had tackled them on the
way and wrested license plate from
the front or rear fo their automobile
Now Judge Case has come to the
rescue of such unfortunate beings anc
ruled that Deputy "Poor Byo," OF
whoever tn earresting officer might
be, must show that the said license
has been off its proper place for &
considerable length of time, long
enough for the violator of the law tt
have secured another plate.
Judge Thomas Butler Dowda wrest
ed this decision from the Hastings
courts.
