TITLE CERTIFICATE
ONLY CAR RECOVERY
Attorney General Says It Is the
Only Way to Regain Auto
in Payment Default

Automobile dealers who sell motor
cars on the partial payment plan
have no quick and easy remedy to
obtain possession of the vehicle in
the event the purchaser fails to meet
his obligations, according to a rul-
ing by the attorney generals office
to State Registrar w. S. Graham.
Graham asked if the vendor Of an
automobile might obtain possession
in the event of default other than
by assignment Of the title, a state
ment Of voluntary surrender by the
vendec or by foreclosure on the ven
doris lien.
The attorney general held that if
automobiles could be recovered by
any process other than that outlined
in the law requiring motor vehicle
owners to have certificates Of title,
the effect would be to nullify the
law completely.
He held that an affidavit, saying
a dealer had seized a car upon de-
fault of payment is insufficient to
warrant the registrar in issuing a
certificate of title and that only the
three ways provided by law for the
transfer of titles are valid.

Well, anyhow. / didn't get much of

sorry. It got the gang together
and some brought their saxes, a
couple Of guitars and what not.
Some of the others, like little Tom

The camp guard thought there was
a riot on and brought the Officer

THIS HAS

lnlS AS HAPFENED
MOLLY BURNHAM, sob sister
on a Boston paper, has been shot by
a dope fiend. whose drug-crazed brain
led him to believe he should kill her.
Molly was reporting the trial of a
gunman named Mandinello, and
Dopey Dan took exception to her stor-
les. His bullets failed. however, to
wound her seriously. And now she is
rapidly getting better.
JACK WELLS, her sweetheart,
learns that Molly is collaborating
with RED FLYNN, a police court re-
porter. on a play, written from real
life. and to be called 1.-THE Death of
Dclphine Darr0ws."
Because Of the shooting. Molly has
received widespread publicity. Red
declares that it is worth a million
dollars in advertising. and predicts
q great success for their play. Then
Jack ~conceives the notion that If Molly
is going to have 4 career, she would
be better off if their engagement
were broken. Me tries to tell her, but
