Beginning Tomorrow
Cards Must Show
Status of Vehicle and
Direction in Some Coses

Beginning at 7 am. tomorrow
there will be strict enforcement of q
requirement that the Districts 1000
taxicabs display proper signs. Pub
lie Utility Chairman Gregory Han
kin warned today. The battery of
cab signs must show:
When the cab is "On Call" of
Duty" and If it is taking part in the
Pickup Service" If it is, it must
display its designation.
Hack Inspector J. v. Harrington,
assisted by Sergt. l.. 1. Lindas and
a corps of 10 uniformed inspectors,
will be on the street throughout the
day looking for violators.
And we mean business" declared
Mr.. Hankin.
Pickup Directional Signs
The breakdown, which was to have
begun earlier but was delayed until
the drivers could obtain the proper
signs. will compel members OF the
IA cab companies taking part in the
pickup service" to display about "a
directional signs-half of them for
morning and half for evening. These
must be displayed between 7 and
am. and 4:30 and $50 pm.
Chairman Hankin emphasized that
drivers will not be permitted to
stop, and, after learning the des-
tination of the prospective fare,
then say they are "on call" or of
duty"
Penalties for violation carry a fine
of up to 5000 on Police Court con-
viction, and the case may also be
referred to the Board of Revocation

traffic, Mr.. Hankin said, drivers
lacking proper signs will be stopped
only if their cabs are empty. If they
are transporting passengers, he ex-
planned, the tag number will be taken
and the driver will be called to
account subsequently.
Mr.. Hankin observed "a great
improvement" in the taxicab service
since March "a, when the pickup
service became permanent for the
participating companies. If the
drivers do not want to observe the
he said, there is no reason 10 permit
their operation of cabs here. Cabs
not on call or of duty must not pass
up any waiting passengers, he
warned.

Presently we are turning out seven millions tons

North, took the first trick and
cashed a second trump. Then
she cashed the ace of clubs, re-
turned to her hand with a third
trump, and led low club for the
winning finesse of the ten. But
there was still the club loser
and a possible spade loser to be
reckoned with.
Mrs. Daub continued by CASH

Miss Greer Carson, the NOV
ing picture lady, is very beau
tiful creature, and apart from
the red hair and the eyes and
other things, she is a normally
healthy, if not exactly strapping
female. She is healthy to point
where it takes fairly harrow
ing experience to flop her into a
hospital bed for a week, which Is
where she has been residing ever
since she completed one of those
nd-selling tours.
Miss Carson, whose new film
Mrs. Minever currently is re-
sponsible for an immense number
of sodden handkerchiefs, went
out on a slightly different tack
from the average moompitcher
war bond salesman. She wasn't
shooting for the big five thous-
and and ten thousand-dollar
bond buyers who, you gather,
are really the easiest to separate
from their dough. Miss Greer
went after the little fellow, seek
ing for a quantity on the lOc
store plan.
Il went out" she said, "to put
salt on the tail of the 25-dollar
bond buyer, the person whose
money is eventually going to win
the war. The 25-dollar buyer is
the man the treasury is the most
interested in.
This tail-Salting tour led the
lady into the tough country
mining towns in Virginia and
West Virginia in the coal min
ing and apple growing sections.
An Englishwoman, Greer got
her first real look at typical
Americana, and the folks who
do not live in Hollywood and
Washington and New York got
their first look at Miss Carson.
CARSON ON THE GO -
In 10 days the Carson caravan
touched more than 90 towns, al
ways hitting as many as two a
day. She rarely Travelled less
than $50 miles between stops,
and she never made less than
two appearances in each town.
Her all-time high was eight sep
arate functions, touching every
thing from radio broadcasts to
talks in public squares and a
COY little 200-women meal with
the local housewives. And the
folks who heard her are buying
bonds to beat the band.
So strenuous was the routine
that the Carson maid got pit
cheers elbow from shocking perS-
piration- soaked clothes from
Miss G's shapely chassis, and
tossing fresh garments on that
chassis. Greer started out with
a fancy evening dress wardrobe
and ended up by working hatlcss
in the toughest rag she owned.
When the tour began, Miss
