RULING ON-AUTO TAGS ISSUED IN MARYLAND State Residents Must Have State Tage or l’u\e Arrest, Attor- ney General Holds. | TRACTION OFFICIAL TAKEN Hamilton Case in Rockville Court Basis of Decision. Special Dispatch to The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md, January George'E. Hamllton, prominent Wash- ington lawyer and president of the Capital Traction Company, was before Judge Samuel Riggs in the police court here today to answer a charge of not having Maryland markers on his automobile when it was stopped by Motor Cycle Policeman Leroy Rodgers on the Rockville pike, near Bethesda, a few days ago. The charge was preferred against Mr. Hamilton, who owns valuable property in the lower section of th county, on the theory that he is an actual resident of the county and, therefore, should have had Maryland tags on his car. notwithstanding the temporary reciprocity between the District and Maryland. Mr. Hamil- ton told Judge Riggs that, while le | cccuples his Montgomery home much | of the time and for the last year had been there virtu - he is not a legal r but regards Washington as his home. He sald, however, that he did not wish to make any defense, but sim- ply wanted to know what he should do_under the circumstances. Judge Riggs suggested to Mr. Ham- ilton that he probably was such a| resident of the county as to require him to buy Maryland tags and dis- missed the case with the understand ing that.he would do so.
