STATE HOUSE

A hearing was given Monday by the
State Highway Commission to a dele
cation Of the Maine Automobile Deal
ers' Association, who protested against
the manner in which the law was be-
ing enforced under the direction Of
Henry A. Shorey, Jr, chief of the mo-
tor vehicle inspection department. in
respect to the registration of motor
trucks owned and controlled by deal
ers and used for other than strictly
demonstration and emergency pur-
poses.
The law bearing on this subject was
passed at the last session Of the legis-
lature and is that no motor truck, trac-
tor or trailer registered under that
section of the law which pertains to
the registration of dealers, shall be
used for other than demonstration or
emergency purposes.
Mr.. Shorey interprets this law to
mean that a so called service truck,
that is. a truck used in the general
business of the dealer and specifically
set aside for that purpose, must be
registered individually and is not in
the same class with trucks which are
being demonstrated and ,offercd for
sale. The dealers claim that this is
an unjust construction of the law and
that this provision was inserted in the
new law without their knowledge.
Of
the spokesman for the delegation and
he argued that it was not the inten-
ton of the legislature that the law
should be so construed. V. S. Darling,
president of the Androscoggin County
Automobile Dealers Association. l.. A.
Peterson of the Peterson Motor Com
pany of Portland, c. l.. Curtis OF the
Lewiston Buick Company and others
argued on the same line.
Mr. Shorey pointed out that the
dealers were paying for the registra-
ton of their cars only about half
which the individual owner was pay
ing, that the law was intended to as
sist the dealer in demonstrating his
cars. that there were no restrictions
on the use of passenger cars and that
the legislature never intended TO give
the dealer the broad privileges which
he HAS had since 1917. and is still en-
joying.
1t was the general concensus OF
opinion that the solution of the mat
ter hinged entirely on the interpreta-
ton Of the word emergency" as used
in this section. In order that the sit
uation might he classified. it was sug
gcsted that the delegation appoint q
committee to confer with Mr.. Shorey
and that this committee draft oues-
tions relating to the points in con-
troversy which should be submitted to
Attorney General Ransford w. Shaw.
both the highway commission and the
dealers agreeing to abide by the deci-
sion Of the attorney general.
The following questions will be sub
mitted TO Attorney General Shaw as a
result of the conference:
May an automobile dealer who has

| ton SO of the public laws Of 1921 use
any automobile truck owned by him
for any and ell purposes pertaining
strictly to the conduct of his business
as an automobile dealer, such purposes
being essentially as follows:
Taking men and tools to the freight
yard for unloading automobiles.
collecting and delivering his own
freight or express
Answering s. o. s. calls from Gus
toners who require service on the
road
Going to the postoffice to receive

The Sunday evening prayer meet
ing at the Federation June 25, led by
Mrs. G. W. Hinckley was very help
full. Mrs. Hinckley read from First
Corinthians, the third chapter. Her
subject was character" and she
said in part: we are all builders of
character. We are in this world to
build a character which will be
blessed and useful in that great flu
ture for which we are being trained.
Character is what we are 1t lies
deeper than what we do, say or think.
1t is so profound that our great
teacher declared that in order to
change it, one must be born again.
| You may alter your conduct as easily
as YOU wash your hands, but to affect
your character the granite rocks of
J your soul must be riven. Some one
has said: Christ has Il clear vision of
our lives as he wants them to be
| and he made himself as thoroughly
understood as an architect does wher
he draws the exact diagram of a per-
! feet building. The Sermon on the
Mount is the blue print of a perfect
! life with lines so distinctly drawn
that no one can dodge them. No
man wants the blue print of a house
! that does not call for a perfect struct-
j ure; nor do we want a character that
demands anything less than a per-
feet life. She emphasized the
| thought that we should be careful in
our building to select the best ma
tefial. Thought, time, simplicity, sin.
Certify, loyalty, gentleness, patience
culture, obedience, courage, self con-
troll, beauty and prayer are some OF
! the materials which we may use and
/ above a&, love. Special music hat
