NEW UDGE FRW - N TRAFFI, COURT Three Sent to Jail in One Day for Offenses Against Code of Streets. |~ i o During the month Judge Gus A Schuldt has presided in the traffic court the penalties he has inflicted show that he Is in hearty co-opera- tion with traffic officers. He has sent & number of reckless drivers, speed maniace, drunken drivers and others committing major offenses to_ jail for meditation. He has imposed some wtiff fines for these offenes, one amounting to $300, and several of $260, $150. $100 and $50. In' the court vesterday the follow- ing offenders were fined, and being unable to pay their fines,' were com- mitted to jail: Willlam Lofty, passing | u street car loading and unloading assengers, $25 or twenty-five days n, jail, and $10 or ten days in jafl foF operating without operator's _permit; Carl Rog -8, speeding, $40 or forty days in jall; Clgrence Young, no operator's perni $15 or fifteen days, and no tags. $15 | or fifteen days. The new traffic law against rech leds driving carries a minimum pen- alty of $50 or thirty days in _jail, one or both, in the discretion of the court, and the maximum is $300 fine or ninety days in jail, one o= both. Since this law became effectiva the police have sought to take advantage of it by bringing in simple speeding and charging reckle: ing.
