GARAGE OWNERS MUST
KEEP POLICE POSTED
Reporting Badly Damaged, Bullet
Marked Cars, is Duty Under
New State Law.

"The person in charge of any gar
age or repair shop to which is
brougt any motor vehicle which shows
evidence of having been involved in
serious accident or struck by any
bullet shall report to the nearest DO
lice station or sheriff's office forth
with and to the registrar of motor
vehicles within twenty-four hours af-
ter such motor vehicle is received
giving the engine number, registration
number and the name and address
of the owner or operator of such We
hicle."
The above is a part of the new
Minnesota traffic code, which has been
in effect since April %. Failure to-
make the report is declared a mis-
demeanor.
This provision of the law is intend
ed primarily to aid the police in To-
eating persons who drive away from
bad accidents and persons who have
escaped from the police. 1t is also
intended to aid in the recovery of
stolen cars and the apprehension of
car thieves.
The law, however, gives the gar
age man no discretion but compels
him to report all badly damaged
cars, even if he knows that the owner
is a law abiding citizen. In such
cases, however, the reports would be.
used only for statistical purposes.
The latter would be true also of the
reports required of magistrates and
clerks of courts of record. The law
requires a report of every convic-
tion of a violation of the traffic act,
but makes no provision for the use
of these reports, except that the reg
istrar of motor vehicles shall keep
the records. They would be available
to law enforcement officials, and for
statistical purposes.
The law requires that every magi-
strate shall keep a full report of ev--
cry case in which person is charged
with violation of any provision of the
traffic act, and in the event that such
person is convicted or forfeits his
bail, an abstract of said report shall
be made to the registrar of motor
vehicles, upon forms to be provided
by the latter.
Where a conviction takes place in
court of record, the report must be
made by the clerk. He is required to
report to the registrar of motor We
hicles, not only convictions for vio-
lation of the traffic act but all con-
victions for manslaughter or any
other felony in the commission of
which a vehicle was used.

Gasoline Shortage Forces Plane
Down After 42-Hour Trip
A New Record.

Berlin-For the second time in lit
tie more than fortnight an Ameri-
can airplane has spanned the vast
Atlantic and landed safely on the Eu-
ropean continent.
The nonstop fight of the Bellanca
monoplane Columbia, piloted by Clar-
ence D. Chamberlin, with Charles A.
Levine as his companion, ended at
Tisleben, Saxony, ITO miles southwest
of Berlin, when the fuel supply was
exhausted.
Taking to the air again, the fliers
made a brave attempt to reach Ber-
lin, but apparently lost their way in
the cloudbanks and adverse winds
encountered during the morning and
came down at last in a marshy field
at the village of Klinge, near Kottbus,
Brandenburg, 20 miles southeast of
the capital. In alighting the propeller
hit the ground and was broken. The
wheels settled into the marshy ground
and further progress was impossible.
The plane had travelled 120 miles from
Eisleben and, If headed in the right
direction, would have landed at Berlin.
Establish New Record.
The fliers failed to achieve their
goal, Berlin, but they established a
new long distance sustained fight rec
ord, having covered 1905 miles from
Roosevelt field, New York, to Elsie
ben.
Starting from Roosevelt field they
had been in the air .r AZ hours when
forced to land at Eisleben, as compared
with 1914 hours for Captain Lindberg's
$50 mile flight from New York to
Paris little over two weeks ago.
News of the Columbia's start and
the subsequent dispatches telling of
its progress had brought Berlin to
fever heat and the great Tempelhofer
field, nucleus for a web of CONNER

crowds waiting to welcome the Amer
leans. Many waited all night,
