WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 31.- Complete abandonment of the use of plain clothes traffic officers within the next year is predicted by the American Automobile association.
 The prediction is based upon an in-- vestigation of police methods of the principal cities as result of aglta- tion over the action of the Police Commissioner of Washington in ex- perimenting with ununiformed off cers in it's campaign against lawless- ness.
 ~ Of sixty-one police chiefs con- suited, only three reported the use of ununiformed officers, and five report ed a dual system whereby traffic officers were both in uniforms and plain clothes. Of the fifty-three cities now using uniformed police exclusive ly for traffic law enforcement, twen- ty-three formerly used plainclothes men and abandoned the system. The investigation revealed the fact that of fifty-four afflicted A. A. A. clubs that were questioned, only one club favor

They lived in the manner of Adam and Eve just to prove it still can be done. Now MT. and Mrs. Earl Oberg, of Seattle, Wash, are back in civili- zation. They won a S200 bet by their stunt, but perhaps the whole $200 will go to buy food.
 We lived on berries first, but they are not very filing" says Mrs. Oberg in telling of the adventure, which lasted a week. Then Sarl made a snare from twigs and caught rabbits. We took wool threads from our cloth ing and caught some fish. We cut branches and made home in which to sleep at night.
 Earl managed to start fires by fric- tion, so we cook our rabbits and our fish. The fires also kept us from freezing, although it was pretty cold at times. I lived in costume of leaves"

The A. A. A. has summarized the reasons for abandonment of the spy system, as advanced by the leading police chiefs, as follows:
 It has never been necessary to put out plainclothes men to catch speed CTS. Detective methods are necessary only for violations not done in pub lie.
 Uniforms are a protection to the motoring public as we'll as to the police force. The uniform has a deterrent effect upon would-be viOlatOrs.
 It is more important to discourage violation than to make arrests after nothing has happened. Good policing consists in maintain ing order without arrests.
 Espionage presupposes the motor ists criminal
