a total of "a motorists have been
arrested since Saturday midnight
for driving with the obolete 1927

TO deposit SIS collateral at the pre-
cincts in which they We're arrested.
That there were not many more
arrested, considering the number
who failed to get their new tags
before the expiration of the time
limit. is thought by police to he due
to the exceptionally cold weather
IL the weather had been warmer
many more motorists would have
yielded to the temptation to ride
during the two-day holiday, it is
thought.
Those arrested prior to today will
be dealt with much more leniently
than will those arrested in the
future. according to Police Judge
Isaac r.. Hit. Fines ranging Up
to $40 will be imposed in the future

Notable increases In export trade

Ella Gorbach. 81. collapsed on the
floor OF their apartment in the Tux.
edo, 1439 T st. N. W., last night.
Mrs. Monro's husband. Robert
Munro, 81, became violently i'll, but
was able to summon assistance.
The three had been riding in a
closed car and felt no i'll effects until
they got out and walked to their
apartment. Almost as soon as they
entered the door, however, both
women fell unconscious to the floor.
Munro called DIR. F.. B. Pedrick,

REMOVE SPIKES;
WRECK Train
Four Coaches of Santa Fe
Navajo Turn Over.

BIZ United Press
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal, Dec. 27.
Train wreckers caused the derail-
ment of the Santa Fe train, Nav
ajo, near Hesperia today.
Official reports from the scene of
the wreck said all spikes had been
removed for the length Of one rail
and that a connecting angle iron
had been disconnected. The wreck
ers motive was not known.
Although the entire train left the
rails and four of its cars overturned,
only eight persons were reported in
jured seriously.
Credit for the small number of in
jured was given to the engineer, A.
c.. Long, who brought his train to
a stop in fifteen lengths, although
it was travelling sixty miles an hour
when it struck the weakened Sec
ton.
Three sleepers and the private
cable of F. J. Mackie. assistant
manager of the Santa Fe, turned
over after they left the rails.
Mrs. Mackie was among the in
jued. Her condition was said not
to be serious. w. H. Burdage, Win
