government still denies a persistent
rumor that it will give the Pope the
old papal palace at Avignon. The

Thus it is that the law reaches the

practically no one, with the exception Of
those specifically exempted, can engage
in real estate brokerage without IL
cense. This is made even more certain
by the provision in the law which states
that one act of the character described,
when performed for others. for COM

stitutes the one so acting as a real

penalty set for a violation Of this law

for six months. or both. and IN the case
of a corporation fine OF 81 900.

PSEUDO COPS
HIT IN OPINION
ON AUTHORITY
Not Empowered to Arrest
VioIatorS Unless in
Uniform.

Members of detective associations
operating under the horsethief de-
tective act of 1907 are without legal
authority to arrest violators Of mo-
tor vehicle laws unless dressed in
a uniform prescribed by the secre-
tary of state, according to an opin-
ion which Smiley M. Chambers, as
sistant city attorney. gave the board
Of safety today.
Chambers opinion was based on
the 1927 act, which provides that
all peace officers must be IN uniform.
The 1929 act of the legislature
clearly exempts regular city police
from the uniform provision, Cham
bers told the board.
The antiquated law sets out that
members have power to pursue
horse thieves and other felons."
Fred w. Council, safety board
president, asked Chambers to give
an opinion on the powers of horse
thief detectives as result Of the
conflict with special police who are
granted power to guard private
homes in certain districts of the city.
The safety board will confer with
county commissioners to obtain CO.
operation in eliminating the horse
thief vigilantes" who have been
causing trouble on the north side.
Under the 1907 law citizens are
permitted to band together in COM
panies of ten if their names are ap-
proved by the board of county COM
missoners. They are given the gen.
eral powers of constables, but would
be entirely without authority to ar
rest motorists. unless uniformed and
displaying a badge to signify their
authority. Chambers suggested
amendment of the law to limit their
authority to rural districts.

frequently has been used as po-
litical tool and by persons seeking

You get an eyeful of Jacks
opinion in the foreword when you
read: eff the President Of the
United States was not a poltroon,
he behaved like one. Because
the English stopped our ships and
refused us permission to trade on
the high seas, and because the
French did likewise, Mr.. Jefferson
and a cowardly congress, forbade
our ships to stir outside Of our own
ports lest the English or French
seize them and, presently, drive us
into war. This was called an en-
barge"
That opinion was the chief reason
that drove the good looking Jack
Strake from the peaceful occupation
of a sailor into the job of command
ing a slave running ship and later
pirate boat by the name of ~The
Happy Parrot"
AS serious as the foreword may
sound, THE Happy Pirate" is by no
means a political indictment of any
period o. our government.
THE Happy Parrot is just well
written story about a young chap
who, down and out, fell in love with
a pretty nifty girl by the name Of
Cynthia, whose rich uncle was one
of the unknown owners of a bunch
of slave running ships.
Jack lets you meet Cynthia in the
first lines of his story when he
writes: THE first morning 1 ever
saw her she wore a shell-piI1k Or
candle gown, a white lowered scarf
across her breast, cross strapped
slippers of a rose color, and a gauze
cap; and she carried market baS-
ket tied with rosy ribbons"
And when you get to know Gym
thia, she turns out to be regular
tom-boy who dolls up like male
cook and goes a skipping on the
dreadful Happy Parrot"
And you can imagine what an
