ISSUED IN WASHINGTON

The District issued 62.096 automobile
tags during the twelve months ended
June 80. bringing in a total revenue
of $255,767. according to the annual
report of Wade H. Coombs, superin-
tendent Of licenses.
For the preceding fiscal year the

year of $32,179.
The report also reveals that 20.4s0

permit, this brought in revenue
amounting to $40.960.
Mr.. Coombs informed the Commits
sioners that the total revenue from
automobilists, business licenses and
miscellaneous permits was $441.350, an
Increase Of $39,199 over the previous
fiscal year.
It is shown in the report that there
are now in Washington 2.o24 cigar
dealers, So hotels and 946 restaurants.
In striking comparison to the in
crease in automobile permits. the re-
port shows that there are now only
ten licensed livery stables in the city.

WAR ON SPEEDERS
SHOWING RESULTS
Outcome of Crusade Against
Law VioIators Gratifies
Police Department.

Gradual but effective results have
been the outcome Of the first week Of
the crusade against speeding in Wash
inston. Police and Police Court off,
cials indicated today that they are
gratified.
Records in the archives of the Police
Court show that since the inception
Of the campaign. with the exception
of the first three days, the number OF
speeding cases has been on the de-
cline. despite the unusual diligence of
policemen to round up the fast
drivers.
+ A vague but significant conception
of the results thus far. court officials
point out, may be CLEANED from scan
ming the records of Monday, August.
8. when the crusade got under way.
yesterday. Fifty-two speeders were
arrested on the day the campaign
opened, while yesterday twenty-one
were caught, making decrease of
thirty one.
Cite Changed Conditions.
These figures, although indicative to
some extent of the results OF the cam
paign, court officials believe the
changed conditions on three of Wash
ington's most famed speedways-Con.
duit road, Massachusetts, avenue and
18th street-give better idea OF the
crusade's effects. Thomas G. Walsh,
scribes the travel on these boulevardss
as "a funeral procession instead OF
a race track exercise"
The fast-driving evil. however. Is
far from being conquered. the az, /,
planning to make things as hot" as
possible for the driver who has a
passion for exceeding the speed limit
Superintendent of Police Gessford
conferred with Assistant Corporation
Counsel Walsh yesterday afternoon
and informed him that the police de-
partment is making arrangements to
detail a special clerk in the police
record bureau from pm. to MID
night, for the sole purpose OF. check.
ing up the previous traffic records OF
the fragrant speed violators. with the
object of forcing them into court on
an attachment in lieu Of allowing them
to forfeit collateral. At present there
is no clerk in the bureau during these
hours. Consequently many of the fast
