Boy, 10, Races A,oay From Police
In 20 Stolen AutOs in 4 Dnys

The pick of Boston's motor cycle
police failed in matches of speed
and daring with Sheehan. For
four successive days he taunted
the force with open cutouts as he
raced about the streets of the
Charlestown district.
Four times yesterday in three
different cars the "Charlestown
whirlwind" drove over his ia
vorite route in the heart of the
district, was cheered by thousands
who lined the sidewalks and es-
capped capture
The district is well suited to his
game. Charlestown has for the
most part narrow, crooked streets,
which have surprising way of
doubling on themselves. Most of
them are paved with cobble-
stones, treacherous ground for
motor cycles. Girders of the ele-
waited structure and several troll
ley lines add hazards to the course.
1t is estimated that since the
beginning of Sheehan's dashes he
has stolen and driven 20 automo
biies.

Issuance of a temporary operators
permit for 10 days while the traffic
office investigates the mental, physi-
cal and moral qualifications of an
applicant to drive an automobile
probably will be required in the new
regulations, Director of Traffic Ed
ridge announced today.
The plan being considered by the
director in conference with his ad-
visory committee is to have a new
application blank in three sections.
After the usual demonstration as a
driver the applicant would be given
the first stub on the blank, which
would be a temporary Today permit.
After checking up on the applicants s
qualifications the second stub, or per-
manent permit would be sent to him.
The third portion of the applicatio
blank would constitute the office record.
Under the plan as now being con-
sidered. the permit card would con-
tain a brief description of the holder,
such as race, height and general
complexion. On the reverse side

BOSTON, April 6.-James Shee-
han, 16-year-old automobile thief,
who played tag with Boston's
force of motor cycle police for
four days because he liked the
thrill" wearied of the sport
early today and returned to the
State School for Boys at Shirley,
from which he escaped several
months ago.
IT did it just for the fun of the
thing" was the boys explanation.
II wanted to get the thrill"
Sheehan said that he began his
recent career as a speedster March
"a, when he stole an automobile
in Clinton. Since then he had
borrowed one car after an
other, his record on Saturday
being four large automobiles. In
q hfde-and-seek game with the
police in the Charlestown district
yesterday crowds turned out to
cheer the youth whose exploits

A general exodus of union painters

begun here today. All Of the master
painters shops are idle today. and
with the exception Of some work be-
ing carried on by independent en-

1t is estimated that up to yesterday

There was a large crowd of union
men around the painters and paper
hangers headquarters today keep
ing in touch with the situation and
condemning those opposing the wage
increase from 50 to $40 a day.
John Gallagher, organizer from the
International Union headquarters, In
Lafayette, Ind, was present, direct
ing the situation for the union men.
He asserted the men were standing
firm. In discussing the importation
of non-union labor by employers Mr..
Gallagher said: Let them try to get
them, If they can, and If they succeed
in getting some. the public will soon
know what inferior and irresponsible
men they Will be-"
Canvassing Builders Needs.
According to Rufus S. Lusk, secre-
tary of the fair-wage committee, a
questionable has been sent to all
builders asking how many men each
firm will need and when they may
need them. When this Information IS
given their wants will be supplied,
said Mr.. Lusk. He suggested that If
any difficulty is experienced. means
would be taken to concentrate on fin
ishing each house as 1t was sold, thus
preventing any holding UP of sales
in the realty market.
With wage increase demanded by
the plumbers and a strike date set
for May Z, and an increase also ask ed
by the steamfitters and a strike date
set for May IA, a conference will be
held this afternoon at the City Club,
under the auspices of the Washing
ton fair-wage committee. This meet
ing Will endeavor to work out some
plan to support intact the master
plumbers and master steamfitters'
associations if they refuse the increases
demanded.
John Colpoys, who has been ap-
pointed mediator by the Department:
of Labor, was at the local painters
union headquarters today discussing
the question.
