BY n. J. ALLEN,
Member Metropolitan Police Force.

Let those among you who have never
been arrested for a traffic violation VOL
unteer the first advice"
The foregoing Is the verbatim, albeit
somewhat sarcastic, reply OF friend OF
mine when attempted to give him
some excellent advice, after he had con-
cluded mournful account of q most
unfortunate encounter he had expert
enced that very morning at the hands
OF a certain speed cop"
Were I to accept his advice literally
this article, OF course, could never have
been written. However, have given
thought. and I have, after a great deal
Of mental travail, arrived at the con-
clusion that would be derelict in my
/ duty to the public, who are responsible
for my salary, If did not give them
the beneflt of my experience as an OFF,
GER, via some well intentioned advice.
Unquestionably the greatest problem
confronting present-day motorists. Is
how to avoid being arrested for speed
ing, because we all more or less like to
speed. The powerful motors, good
brakes and excellent roads We have
now are a constant temptation to just
let 'er out little.
There are very few motorists who
in the course of an hours drive or more
will not have exceeded at some point
the legal speed limit. This may sound
like very extravagant statement, but
IL you believe the contrary, you pos
sibly might surprise yourself by taking
an hours drive With some one whose
duty it will be to constantly check your
speedometer readings.
Volunteers Some Suggestions.
Now that have inculcated upon your
mind the consciousness that you do
speed, inadvertently or otherwise; also
the terrifying thought that you may
be arrested most any time in the near
future, provided you persist in driving
your own car, consider 1t only fair
to try and advise you how to extricate
yourself, II and when you are arrested.
which no doubt you will be, especially
II this present traffic drive keeps up.
1t is q very poor doctor who having
discovered and diagnosed certain all
ment, cannot prescribe a remedy for
same
Having thought up and set down in
the aforegoing all the excuses / can
think OF for offering you some advice.
which at best is seldom welcome, will
now proceed:
The idea foremost in Importance that
I would recommend motorists to keep
in mind at all times, is this: Never. no
matter what your true feelings may be,
let A policeman suspect that you are in
the least afraid OF him. or that you have
the smallest respect for the authority he
represents On the contrary, act just
as pusnacious as YOU possibly can.

Buses Develop Country.

That the public can now buy a motor

over well unified system, is a step for

De Soto Six-one year old
August 4, 1929. During the past
twelve months, 81,O65 De Soto
Skies were sold - breaking all
records for a first-year car in the
entire history of the industry.
1t is not surprising that a car
so handsome, SO comfortable
and responsive - and SO safe
and easy to drive as De Soto Six
should find a ready market.
But it is significant that even
such a car as this should set a
new sales record for the industry
in the first year of its existence.

This unprecedented public accep

matter what model you may
choose for your own, you will
possess a car whose distinction
and quality will afford you lasting
pride and satisfaction-such as no
other car in its price field can offer.
Test De Soto Six in any way that
you desire-drive it yourself.
A demonstration will enable
you to confirm for yourself the
popular judgment that has
made De Soto Six a record.

Left Guard
 Two of the greatest basketball rivals in the state of Connecticut, the New Britain and Bristol Endees auintcts, will clash tomorrow after noon and night in a New Years double header, one game to be play cd in the afternoon at the stanley Arena in this city. and the second 10 be staged at the Bristol state armory in the evening. The two games will have an important bearing on the chances Of both teams for a claim on the state championship this year.
 According to official records, each team has defeated the other once already this season. New Britain took an early season game from Bristol in Bristol while, in return engagement in this city, the Endees turned the tables and took New Britain into camp.
 Bristol is defending it's title Of state champion earned through hectic season last year. New Britain. the runncr-up team and former State championship outfit, will be making a stiff attempt to set the Bristol az eregation back a peg or two in the race this year.
 Once again Manager Joe Carroll Of the Endees will have the same team I that brought the state pennant 10 his club last season and, incidentally, | the quintet will be the same one that inflicted the defeat on New Britain four weeks ago.
 Tvd of the outstanding forwards ! in basketball in Connecticut, Jimmy Picken and Jimmy Collins, will b, in those positions for Bristol tomor- row. Sam Richman, Newark star. will be at center, with Richtmyer, Bristol boy, and "Wardy' Waterman. star back court performer, at the guards.
 Against this array of talent, the 1 New Britain team will use it's roor- ganized quintet consisting Of Jimmy | Zakzcwski and "Bo" Adams at the forwards, Jerry Conway at center and Al Sloman and Hank Arburr at the guards. This quintet shellaked the Atlas Consolidated Five last Sat urday night, displaying the best brand of basketball seen here in some years.
 Due to the bitter rivalry that exists between the two combinations, two Of the hardest battles of the year are being anticipated. Both teams are anxious to win and both will be out to take both games tomorrow
 The afternoon game at the Sta n- Icy Arena will start at 3 o'clock. The Burritts and St. Mary's Of Portland will play the preliminary, starting at , o'clock The night game in Bris- tol will begin promptly at o'clock.

START CLEANUP
OF POSTOFFICE
New Aid Named: Mails Are
Being ReVamped.

BIZ Scripps- HoUard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, June 6-Tn an
effort to place the postal service on
a self-sustaining basis. Walter F.
Brown, postmaster general. has be-
gun a reorganization of the entire
department.
The appointment this week Of F.
A Tilton of Detroit as third assist
ant postmaster general, in charge
OF The finance division, was the first
step. Tilton is a partner Of the &C
counting firm Of Haskins g. Sells
Company and has been personally
in charge Of the accounting of
General Motors.
The pOstofice department had a
deficit of $4,000 ,202 during the 1928
fiscal year and the estimated deficit
for the 1929 fiscal year is $83, 405, $50,
according to a report Of the house
appropriations committee. The in
crease is due to lower postal rates,
increased pay, increased payments
for carrying mails on American
ships, and the air mail.
Brown expects to complete the
reorganization Of the department by
July /. a large part of the annual
deficit is chargeable to free mail
services Of the government itself,
including the congress. The frank
privilege, it is estimated, costs about
S16,000,O00 a year.
