TAXI INSURANCE
STUDY IS ORDERED
Sixteenth Street Heights Citi-
zens Delay Action on
Resolution.

An investigation into the advisability
OF having a law whereby tax drivers in
the District would be compelled to
carry public liability and property
damage insurance was ordered last
night at a meeting of the Sixteenth
SEeet Heights Citizens Association.
:. Reginald c. Dill, chairman of the
Investigating Committee, introduced
motion favoring compulsory insurance
which was laid aside until completion
OF the investigation. He stressed the
necessity of having these proposed
measures affect independent taxicab
operators.
Inability Of pedestrians or passengers
to obtain financial judgment from taxi
cab drivers in case of accident or death
was cited in the discussion, and a sug-
gestion made that the proposed COM
pulsory law include all licensed auto
mobile drivers.
Resolution Opposed.
Members opposing the resolution told
how many men might possibly be
thrown out of work here because they
could not pay the insurance costs. Mr..
Dill contended the average earnings
of taxi drivers would enable them to
pay the costs of such an insurance.
The association favored a motion
asking the Board of Education to have
the upper section of the Shepherd
School, Fourteenth and Kalmia streets,
fixed so that the students could use
it as playroom during bad weather
The motion asked that costs of this
work be taken from the District school
repair fund.
Members said the heating system Of

rooms. The one large room, it was
pointed out, would accommodate the
children. as q playroom.
Mr.. Dill was directed to cooperate
with the Parent Teacher Association
of the school in obtaining this action.
The association agreed to hold its
April meeting in the Marjorie Webster
School.
New Name Is Asked.
Owing to the increased membership
of the association revision Of the
associations bylaws has been made
and will be considered at the groups
next meeting. o. E. Sweet Is chairman
of the Revision Committee.
A proposal to change the name Of
the association is being considered by
the organization and suggestions for
q more appropriate name were asked.
One reason for the proposed change
was It's similarity to the Sixteenth
Street Highlands Citizens Association.
New members accepted into the as
ISOLATION include John w. Lambert. DR..

Garments To
Hide Still

Salisbury Beach.-Dainty fem
mime undertakings, futtering from
a clothesline, were used to camou-
hauge the largest still ever discov-
cred in this locality, federal officers
found when they raided a cottage
located $50 yards from the local
police station.
The federal official, L. P. Spald-
ing, in charge of the Lowell dis
trict, led the raiding party, arrest-
ing Tom Platino, 81, of A New
berry street, Lawrence, and Primo
Prazavento, %, of 80 Mechanics
street, Lawrence.
Spalding said that he received
his tip on the place from a prom
inent citizen" of Salisbury Beach,
but refused to name this person.
He also stated hat he believed the
place has been running almost in
the shadow of the police station
for at least four months.
The plant that was broken up
was valued at $4,000. 1t was in
a modest cottage named "Cecelia,'
surrounded by a 1o-foot fence
equipped with gates through which
trucks numbered at will. A signal
system, using electric bells, was
also discovered and destroyed.
Included in the seizure were 500
gallons of finished alcohol, three

line, 500 empty gallon tins, 127
pounds of yeast, 1900 gallons OF

Even A Prison
Isn't Safe From
Robbers TODAY

Thomaston, Me.-Even a prison
is not safe from thieves, Warden
Raymond Thurston discovered
when he learned that 500 of pro-
duce was stolen from the garden
Of the Maine State prison.
And Warden Thurston is not
going to deal easily with the guilty
party if rounded up at any future
date, for the prison head regards a
theft from a prison even worse
than from a private person.
1t is the boldness of the act that
angers the warden.
Should the thief be caught Thur
ston promises the culprit will have
the opportunity during the winter
to feed the other inmates of the
States boarding house some of the
produce he left behind.
