Traffic Tabs
(By RAYMOND CATO)

@. How often should I have my
headlights examined? C.J.Q.
A. There is no stated time in the
law However it is good idea
to have them tested at an official
station at least twice each year,
and especially each time new
bulb is placed in use.
@. I am confused regarding the
carrying of a smaller steamer
trunk on the running board of my
car. Which side is it permissible
to carry the same? A.JH.
A. 1t may be carried on the left
side provided it does not extend
beyond the hub caps more than
inches. If on the right side it
cannot extend beyond the hub
caps.
@. If there is very light traf-
fic late at night or on holidays,
am I permitted to make a turn
in the middle of block in bus
mess district?
A. There is no such permission
implied in the vehicle code.
@. l have been using a leather
container which I have had for
many years for my registration
certificate. An officer told me I
would have to get a new one be-
cause the entire face of the cer-
tificate was not visible. Is that
correct? Mos.
A. Yes; the law provides that
the entire face of the registration
certificate must be in view.
@. I have moved since my op-
orators license was issued and
since it is not convenient for me
to make a long trip to where it
was issued to make the change,
what. can I do about it? J.L.F.
A Notify the Department of
Motor Vehicles at Sacramento, by
mail. Give the number of your
license, your old and new address
eS. Then make the change on the
face Of the license yourself.
@. Unfortunately damaged
slightly the left rear fender of a
parked car, which was unattended.
l was unable to find the owner
and as I was in a hurry, I left
l..
Was that sufficient? S. c.
A. No; you should have given
a brief statement regarding the
circumstances and within "a hours
forwarded a similar to the police
department, if in a city, or the
local headquarters of the Califor-
mia Patrol Or sheriffs office if not
in a city.
@. Who receives the money from
court fines for traffic violations?
T. H. D.
A. In arrests by city officers, for
misdemeanors, the traffic fines
are paid to the city treasurer for
the street improvement fund. When
the arrest is made by a county
or state officer, the fine is paid
into the special road fund" of
the county where the fine is i'm
posed.

WPA TIMEKEEPERS WILL GET ACTION
Effort to eB Made Today to Straighten Out Pay
 Day Problem

An effort will be made this after noon at a meeting of WPA time keepers from projects in Waterbury and vicinity to clear up the difflcul- ty in connection with the ten day wait between the time when the men quit work and the day they actually get paid. It is believed an attempt will be made to establish some arrangement whereby the pe- riod will be shortened to three days
 All timekeepers have been request ed to put in an appearance at the City Hall and will be addressed by J. J. Dooley of the financial depart ment in New Haven, state head quarters of the WPA.
 Tn the past there has been some difficulty in managing the detail work revelant to tabulating figures and having them cleared up in short order. No pay checks can come through until the timekeepers have handed in reports on the hours the men have put in and 1t Is believed a change in the present system, with the idea of speeding up reports, will be discussed this afternoon.

Letter Of Suicide
 Given Judge McEvoy
Counsel Claims It Privileged Communication; Coroner
 Demands It as Evidence

A letter written by a client to his attorney is a privileged communica- ton and should not be surrendered by the lawyer, declared Attorney Alfred Finklestein at special hear ing in superior court this morning as he defended Attorney Perry Graicerstein for refusing to turn over to Coroner John T. Monzani @ letter written to him by the late Maurice Willner on the day before he took his life and that of his son, Joel, in the garage of his Willow street home. Judge Frank P. Mo- Evoy reserved decision.
 The hearing this morning was sought by the coroner on the grounds that the failure of the lawyer to give him Willner's letter was hampering his inquest into the two deaths. Attorney Graicerstein was summoned to appear to show cause why he had not turned the letter over to the coroner.
 State Claims It
 Coroner Monzani was represented by Attorney William B. Fitzgerald, acting as assistant states attorney. The latter declared that under the law the coroner has right to the letter as evidence.
 During the hearing Attorney Finklestein voluntarily informed the court that Attorney Graicerstein had a copy of still another letter written by Willner, and photostatic copy of 1t was given the coroner this morning. Meantime the dis- puted letter was given to Judge Me-

 About six members of the little colony, scattered throughout the city dump on Thomaston avenue, were evicted by police this morning, others having evidently fled without waiting for official warning. While the group is somewhat smaller than it was during the height of the de- pression, the number of squatters now living there is estimated at 10 or 12.
 Reports at police headquarters that the river was rapidly rising this morning resulted in Sergeant Will liam Duggan of the motor patrol and Officers Moylan, Hickey, Culle- ton and Deeley being dispatched to see that the men left their huts.

POLICE WHISTLE
 BATTLES DRIVER

A seven year old youngster with a police whistle had a motorist go- ing round and around last night on Leavenworth street until two bona fide policemen arrived in answer to what they believed a riot call. The driver pulled up to the curb as he heard the whistle blown near the Civic theater. When no police man appeared he drove around the block slowly and as he passed the same place the whistle was sound- ed again. Simultaneously, Patrol men John Pannone and William Santoro arrived at the scene, out of breath and considerably worried. The youngster was sent home with a (more or less) severe reprimand.
