WOULD ISSUE TAGS
TO RESIDENTS ONLY
EIdridge Asks Ban on Use of
District Licenses by Out
side AutoiSts.

Adoption of a regulation to prevent
Maryland and Virginia residents from
obtaining District automobile identifi
cation tags has been recommended to
the Commissioners by Traffic Director
NJ. o. Eldridge.
The recommendation was contained
in q report which the traffic director
sent to Commissioner Proctor l..
Dougherty before he left for New York
to attend the annual meeting of the
American Society of Engineers The
report read:
Ever since the price of registration
Identification tags for automobiles in
the District of Columbia was reduced
by Congress to 81 the license office
has had many demands by transient
residents and by residents Of nearby
counties In Virginia and Maryland.
Cites Former Agreement.
1T is my understanding that when
the r0oeprocity agreement eliminating
duplicate tags was entered into be-
tween the District and Maryland, in
accordance with the act of Congress
which made such an agreement legal.
1t was understood by the Commission.
ers and the motor vehicle commits
sioneraof Maryland that an applicant
for al local license tag would not be
entitled to receive it unless he had
his abode in the District OF Columbia
which. to make perfectly clear. meant
that he must sleep in the District.
This agreement has been carried
out to some extent in the past, but
demands for tags on the part of nom
residents and residents of nearby
States continues. and therefore it is
recommended that paragraph III. sec.
ton 3. article Z, of the traffic regula-
tions be amended by adding:
Fine Is Included.
And no person shall be entitled
to receive registration tags for pri-
vate motor vehicle unless the owner
OF the car is domiciled in the District
of Columbia
TT is believed that this amendment
to the regulations would carry out the
intent Of section of the traffic act
and that 1t would strengthen and per-
petuate the reciprocal relations now
existing between the District and the
various States"
A penalty of a fine rot exceeding
800 is carried in the proposed amend
ment for obtaining tags by ANY mis-
representation whatever"

WHEELER OFFERS
GAGE OF BATTLE
Anti-SaIoon League Counsel
Declares War on Moves to.
Repeal Dry Law.

Declaring war to the end. with no
quarter asked nor given to the en-
emies of constitutional government"
Wayne 3. Wheeler, general counsel
of the Anti Saloon League, has laid
down his gage of battle against the
proposal of Senator Edwards of New
Jersey for repeal of the eighteenth
amendment by constitutional con-
ventions in the States.
I'VE are opposed to IT." said Mr..
Wheeler, land to every other effort
to repeal the eighteenth amend
ment."
He made these statements in
letter 10 Miss NJ Louise Gross, presi
dent of the Womens Committee for
Modification of the Volstead Act.
who, he said, had demanded" an
answer from the Anti Saloon League
by January 20 as to it's position on
the Edwards resolution.
Prohibition Beneficial.
Mr. Wheeler outlined at length
reasons of the league for opposing
repeal OF the eighteenth amendment,
citing numerous figures, which he
said were beneficial results" of pro-
hibition.
"All talk about a minority forcing
all dIll0IluIIlOHI lIllO Tic 0OISlIIuI4OIR,
he said, lis pure piffle. II minority
can put an amendment into the Con-
stitution, a minority can take 1t out,
and you claim to have a majority.
Why not make good on your claim
instead of insinuating that you did not
have a fair expression of opinion?
II have read Senator Edwards
speech. 1t is just as sophistical and
inaccurate as the speeches he made
promising to make New Jersey as
wet as the Atlantic Ocean.
To Fight All Changes.
There is no secret about the atti-
tude Of the friends of the eighteenth
amendment. They will fight every at
tempt to nullify or repeal it. They
will not be misled into wasting their
energy in testing public sentiment
when every reliable indicator shows
that the majority today obeys this
law and demands it's enforcement. In
stead, they will maintain their fight
against organized lawlessness that re-
fuses to obey the Constitution. 1t is
war TO the end, with no quarter asked
nor given to the enemies of constltu
tional government"
