Senator Pittman Wants Auto
Registration in One State to
Suffice in All Territory.

Senator Key P'ttman OF Nevada
has reintroduced his bill calling for
one license registration system In
a conference with c. A. vane. gem
eral counsel of the National Auto
mobile Dealers Association, Pfttman
said that he anticipated an early
passage of the measure as the various
political considers ions that held up
the bill In the last session have been
removed In this.
In brief Senator Pittman's bill pro-
vfdes that when the owner Of motor
vehicle has complied with all the
licensing requirements of his own
State he shall not be called upon to
take out an additional license IN any
other State.
The Senator'S attention was FIRST
called to this situation some years ago
when his car was impounded by q
village constable In one of the West
ern States for not carrying an extra
license plate in addition to the plate
of his home State.
On his last visit home. the Senator
told Vane he had had the experience
of having his car tagged with q notice
on his arrival In one % the Western
States that II he proposed to stay
longer than thirty days 1t would be
necessary to get an additional license.

the great dismay of the youngster
who had remained out of school to

Out popped the truant officer and
tefore Johnny could move he was
under cross-examination.
Now the Seattle school board has
made IT. a little easier for Johnny
by giving him a reasonable chance

that cars used by attendance officers
be plainly lettered In conformity with
the style of lettering on all other
cars owned by the school district.
When this action was proposed it
brought forth a sharp and insistent
protest by one of the school officials.
The objection was reported by q
Seattle paper as follows:
mr.. Fleming said in his communica-
tion of protest that as Dodge Brothers
cars are used exclusively by the do
partment, any Dodge Brothers car is
Instantly the object OF suspicion on
the part Of the Juvenile population of

conspicuous by lettering would be

MANY HEED HINT TO
CLEAN LICENSE TAGS

Warning that the police are IN
augurating . campaign against mo-
florists who allow their license plates
to become iilegible. has been generally
needed by local motorists. with the
result that less than q dozen cases
have come to the attention of the
police.
Accumulation OF mud on the plstcs
was responsible for the majority Of
the cases reported by motorcycle Of
ficers and the owners of muddy plates
were simply warned.
The police construe the ordinance
to mean that license numbers mart
be legible by night AZ well as by day,
and accordingly insist that the rear
tag must be well illuminated after

CERMANLIQUOR
DRINKING GROWS

BERLIN, August 3-Consumption
OF wines and liquors has been in
ereasing so rapidly in Germany since
the war that the Reichstag has di-
rected 91e drafting Of a law. to be
introduced at the September session
to regulate the traffic The law also
will Check a growing Increase in the
number of saloons which, in Berth
particularly, has been so rapid that
even the moderates say the hc8Ith
and morals IF the people are endan-
gered.
The crime wave which has been
sweeping the country for MANY
months, filling the jails of every city
and severely taxing the resources of
the police, is attributed by many to
the "drink-craze" and especially to
the more general use, among the
poorer Germans, of cheap cognacs,
green WHISTLES, gin and other "hard
liquors" The Germans, in fact, are
gradually losing their old reputation
as beer drinkers although an abund-
ance of beer is obtainable.
rIdCtlcally all the cafes and wine
rooms of Berlin are installing Am.
erlcan bars and even the high.
priced cabarets, where once only
the best wines were served at tables
for which a charge was made, now
have long mahogany bars, against
which the customer, may lean, with
his feet on a brass foot rail and
drink as long as he has the price of a
drink or the bartender will trus:
him.
There is no charge for place at
the bar but to sit at the tables it is
compulsory to drink champagne, or
some other wine of similar price,
with proportionate profit to the pro
prietor.
