Failure To Heed Own Warning ataI
State Traffic Chief
Raffetv Is Hailed Into Police Court

spector Raffety will be arraigned
this afternoon.
Failure to heed his own warn
ing which, he himself declared,
would probably go unheeded,
proved Inspector Raffety's undo
ing. Prior to the launching of the
cleanup" campaign, motorists
were warned that they would be
arrested for every conceivable
form of traffic law violation.
At least four motorists were
arrested here by Inspector Raffe-
ty and charged with operating
their cars without proper lighting
facilities. In Pendleton, it was re-
ported, the police commissioner
was hailed into court through the
action of Chief Raffety's forces.

still could proceed under the Sher-
man anti law.

cannot come until the market
price of hard wheat flour becomes
