PROPOSE PLAN TO
STOP AUTO 7HEF7S
CHICAGO COMMISSIONER WOULD
DESTROY MARKET FOR
STOLEN CARS.

Chicago-(A. P)-Destroy the
market for stolen automobiles and
thereby stop the thefts, is the plan
now in process of formation by the
Interstate Motor Thefts Commission
here.
Laws, locks and protective devices
have proved themselves inadequate,
says w. R. Van Courtland, commits
sioner. The professional motor car
thief is unabashed. Motor vehicles
of an approximate value of 100000,
the commissioner says are stolen ev-
cry day in the United States, despite
all measures taken to check the
thrive as a result fthe traffic.
Advances Recovery Plan
The plan is this: A car is stolen
in Chicago. If the numbers are
changed one of two things happens,
either a duplicate of some other
number is made or a fake number,
one that the manufacturer never
placed on a car. When the car is sold
and re-registered in any state some
number must be given. A duplicate
number will Immediately be caught
and the two or more cars carrying
that numbers will be thoroughly in
vestigated. A fake number will show
up just as quickly and be looked into
If the number is not changed there
will be report of the number on the
commissioners records as that of a
stolen car and when the same num-
Der is registered again from the same
state or any other it will Immediately
be caught
The lack of any national clearance
system in the past has been one of
the largest contributing factors in
making this lawlessness easy and
profitable, Mr. Van Court1and states
With the Commissions national
clearance system in operation a car
stolen in Maine the numbers changed
and the car sold and registered in
would Immediately be
caught he asserts.

acts, "The Nihilist,' written in 1860,

American government, to adopt
proper measures for remedying the
ravages of war or for insuring the
stability of their economic life.
