Officials Say Having No
Check on Duplicates Leads
to Many Evils

II Widespread use of duplicate
automobile operators permits for
fraudulent purposes may be un-,
covered as a result of investiga-
tons now being conducted by the
police.
Preliminary investigation shows
that it is not only possible but
easy for the holder of a permit
70 obtain duplicates practically
without limit by swearing each
time that his permit has been
lost.
Even should the police learn
later that the supposedly lost
permits are being used fraud
ulentIy, it is said, it is exceedingly
difficult to secure a conviction in
court.
Many Are Issued.
Scores of duplicate permits ara
issued monthly to replace those
which have been lost or which
are alleged to have been lost. 1t
Is very seldom that the lost per-
naits are found and turned over
to the police. officials at the traE-
fic bureau state.
Attention has been focused on
the whole duplicate license ques-
ton following the conviction IN
Police Court a few days ago of
Charles F. Groom on a charge. of
He was fined $40. The case was
lin. of the Sixth precinct, who now
Is investigating an alleged unlawful
use of duplicate permits in connec-
ton with that case.
when Groom was arrested,
Haislip said, Il found in his pos
session an operators permit bear
ing the name of Frank j. Urine
Name Had Been Erased.
This name had been written
on the card after the original
name had been erased IT was III
ink OF a different color than that
used on the remainder Of the card.
THE number Of the permit was
1868. Checking back on this
number / found that the permit
had been issued originally to
) Charles Robert Cameron, a petty
officer at the Naval Air Station.
Further investigation showed
that five duplicate permits. in adj

up in the blue, blue sky. They
sailed round and round. He knew
they were birds and at first glance
he suspected they were Hawks. But
when he saw how there was no mo-
ton TO their wings he knew that
they must he vultures, or Buzzards,
as they are called. No one else
could fly like that. Round and round
right up over head they swung In
great circles. Many a time had
Peter watched or Mistah Buzzard

only once he had ever seen who
could fly like that. But now there
were four. Suddenly Peter under
stood. The two young Buzzards
were flying with their father and
mother
After that he saw them every day.
They seemed to he flying just for the
fun Of flying. They would remain
up In the air for hours. Peter went
over to their favorite roosting place.
He found the young Buzzards quite
as big as their father and mother.
But they were not bold-headed,
Their heads were still covered with
a woody looking down. why do you
spend so much time in the air."

For fun" replied one Of the
young Buzzards, There is no fun
like It. Besides. we are practicing."
Huh" replied Peter. II don't
see how any one who can fly as you
can wastes time practicing."
I've are getting ready to 60

Father and mother have promised
to take us down to the Sunny
South where they came from, and
our wings must be strong for such
a long journey"
And then Peter realized for the

and that soon many OF his feathered
friends would be leaving for the
sunny South, For the moment II
