Police Chief In Special Holiday Safety Warning

'Nfemorlal Day k set aside to honor our heroic dead, Sups. of Police William ,. Roach said this morning, "but this year let us re- member the living aIsO."
 Supt. Roach continued: "On the one-day holiday last year . hun- dred people were killed on the streets and highways of this na- ton. This year with a three-day holiday, since Memorial Day falls on Friday, the estimate of four hundred persons to be killed in the holiday traffic jam may seem high but 1t Is Q probability un. less Every Driver and Every Pedestrian accepts . personal rec spOnsibllity to use more skill and caution than In previous years."
 Ironically" the police head adds, it might seem, that while we are hOnoring those Americans who forfeited their lives for c cause, hundreds more of us are being killed and injured on streets and highways neetilessly."
 Safety holiday suggestions from the police department are:
 "Start early, drive and walk cautiously, take 1t easy! and honor the dead, but protect the living"

Employees Testify For
 Accused Proprietor
Working Hours Arranged to Suit Their Convenience; Accused Given Suspended Sentence; Must Obey Law

where "day begins and night ends" legally speaking was the issue AodAy in the case of the Industrial Overall Dry Cleaning and Supply Go. at 1904 Thomaston avenue when Louis J. Arsenault, 34, Of i67 Essex street, proprietor, was arraigned in city court for employing three

Judge Gaff- i1ey nolled two of the charges and suspended three others, after warn. ing the accused that ignorance or lack of familiarity with the law was no excuse but that in this in. stance, the judge stated the acc cused acted in good faith and was not arbitrarily violating the statute.

Galullo. as to when day legally be- gins and night ends in the em- ployment of minors, by the cleaning plant, as he read the statute In court Specifically the prosecutor stated that the accused Is not per- mitted to employ minors before 6 o'clock in the morning and after 10 o'clock in the night and the statute referred in both instances to standard time
