LOSS OF LICENSE FOR AUTOMOBILISTS Attorney General Says It Will Be Re- voked for Second Offense. At the request of the secretary of the state, Matthew H. Rogers, Attor- ney General Marcus H. Holcomb has rendered an opinien in regard to the interpretation of the section in the motor vehicle law which prevides that on being convicted twice for any of- fense involving a violatien of the sec- tion an automobilist’s license to op- erate an automobile shall be re- voked by the secretary of the state. The opinion is as follows: Hon, Matthew H. Rogers, Secretary: Dear Sir: You submit the foilow- ing statement for my opinion: Section 11, of Chapter 211, of the Public Acts, of 1909 provides as fol- lows: (o person- shall operate a mo- tor vehicle on the public highways ef this state recklessly or at a rate of speed greater than is reasonable and proper, having regard to the width, traffic and use of the highway, or so as to endanger the property or life or limb of any person. While Seetion 1 provides: Any person operating a motor vehicle upon the highways of this state in violation of Section 11 or 12, or while under the imnfluence of intoxicating liquors or upon a bet, wager, etc., enumerating other specific violations, amd tnen further provides that: A conviction of any offense in- volving a violation of this séction shall be reported forthwith to the secretary of the state, who, upon a second or subsequent ~ conviction, shall revoke immediately the license of the person so convicted. If it appears by the rec- ords of said secretary that the person so convisted a second time is the own- er of a motor vehicle, sald secretary shall revoke the certificate of registra- tion of such owner, or of the employer or of the employe so convicted, We ask therefore if the construction of such section includes a convictlon of Sec- tion 11 so that when this office has by record a second conviction for reckless driving it must as provided by Sec- tion 18, immediately revoke the li- cnse of the person so convicted a sec- ond time.” This statute recognizes the fact that motor vehicles driven upon our high- ways at a high rate of speed, or by drunken’ persons, or in a careless and reckless manner, are a menace to everyone using the highways for legit- imate purposes. and in a legitimate manner, and in different sections of this statute the general assembly therefore regulates the use of sueh vehicles, and in Section 7 prohibits their operation upen our highways by persons-who have not been found to be proper persons and received an operator’'s license, or by some person who accompanies such Mcensed oper- ator and for whose violations of the statute the licensed operator is per- sonally liable. Section 18 of this statute proyvides penalties for any person who operates gyl o A Nt L sa a motor vehicles upon our highwa: In violation of sectiop 11. In vielation of section 1I. . Wh=n under the infinence of in- toxicating lique 4. pon a he wager or in a race. pse of making a vielating the pro- ns 11 and going away without making himself known after causing injury to amy persen or property. Violations of any of these previsions subjects the offender to a fine, or im- i nent,or both, and a conviction y offense involving a violation of said section must be forthwith repert- ed by the clerk of the court or justice record and visions and secti 6. Knowingly of the peace to the secretdty] “who upon a second or subsequent convic- tion, shall reveke immediately the license of the person so cenvicted.” Among other things section 18 pro- vides a penaity for a vigplation of the provisions of second 11, and & secend conviction of such vidlation, or a con- viction of a violation of any provisien mentioned in d section and a sub- sequent convictien of such persen of the vielation of any other provisien mentiened in said sectien and a sec- end convictien which requires the sec- retary to immediately reveke the Ii- eense of the person so convicted, and, if the conditions are such as to make the other provisien of the statute quoted by you applicable, it would be your dut yto reveke the certificate of registration of such owner, er eof the employer, or of the employe so con- victed in accerdance’ with the facts. It is clear that the geneéral assembly considered a person so convicted of a secord violatien an improper and dan- gerous persen te hé allowed to operate a motor vehicle upen our publ high- ways, and the statute should be cen- strued in Such manner as to give ef- fect to the manifest intentien of the general assembly.

GOLD DUST cleanses until the last evidence of dirt has gone, and-removes every trace of germ life. You are probably not aware that pots and pans which are used constantly contain hidden nests of little' wigglers— germs of putrefaction and decay. GOLD DUST removes these, because it sterilizes as well as cleans, and leaves your utensils clean, pure, wholesome, safe.
