It not I'nown generally that the state does not leave the punishment of these offenders ‘of the highways entirely to the police courts. police do not have the authority that has been granted to the secretary of the state, who is in con- trol of the automobile affairs of Con- necticut. The automobile department of the state secretary’s office is in three di- visions. The widest knewn s In charge of Arthur Fifoot of this city. It is the place where liceres and rez- istrations are issued. It ys to this de- partment, which is located on ghe third floor and north side of the capitol, that applicants go frequently for markers, rerely for information. Another branch of the automobile management is in the office proper of the secretary state. Elmer E. Lounsbury of this city, chief clerk, has charge of this. His assistants take testimony at hearings, prepare the testimony for record, file newspaper clippings, send for licenses of reckless drivers, writé for evidence, and file all materials of this order. such as court records, comnlaints and affi- Cavits. every article available pertinent tc chauffeurs who are reported to be reckless drivers. The articles are kept in large pouches in lofty, fireproof vauits. The Most Important. Most important of the thr-- branch- es is that managed personally by the secretary of the state, that which has <crarge of the hearing of chauffeurs and the deciding of whether they should keep their licenses. The office aims to imvestigate all motor vehicle aOCil ts, such as collisions, ditchings, injuries to people, accidents to drivers, technical violations, counterfeited markers, cars operated without prop- er lights, or where chauffeurs have Peen caught without their licenses. In- toxication is one of the greatest causes of motor vehicle accidents. The sec- retary, when hearing a case, usually first inquires to find if on the day of the accident the operator had been drinking. While public opinion in- clines to believe that the worst viola- tion of the automobile law is speed- ing, speed cases alone are rare at the hearings, though the question of speed enters into the greater aumber of them. 19,000 Operators. There being so many owners and operators in the state, the office is un- able to keep an absolute supervision of the automobile abuses and abusers. Connecticut now has over 19,000 motor vehicle operators, and 13,760 registered cars. Some of these operators drive fer a living. Many drive for -leasure. Many of them are reckless, though the majority are careful. For the benefit of ‘drivers who are not reckless, the secretary has the power to take away the licenses of the reckless ones. Who woutd describe the typical automobile @river? Every class of people, both sexes, every nationality, is represented among vehicle operators. There is no examination of appli- cants as in Massachusetts. The appli- cant does not need to appear at the office. This phase appeals strongly to business men.and others who own their cars and can drive as capably as s chauffeur and do drive. and yet would not want to bother to go to the, capitol for examination. In Massa- COUNTY SOCIALISTS. Session Well Attended at New London There was a meeting Sunday of the New London socialist local at 9.30, fol- a: 11 a. m. Two applications for mem- bership were received, and 'vacancies in the New lLondon delegation to the county committee were filled. A wom- ar’s committee for work ameng women was formed, with a corresponding sec- retary to keep in touch with similar committees in other locals. The na- tionel referendum containing the nom- inations for the seven members of the national executive committee and for the office of national secretary was discussed and will be distributed for voting among the members here. The eounty committeemen present inciuded delegates from Norwich. My tic and New London locals. The- lis- tened to reports of the work being done i Jewett City, Baltic and som» of the ccuntry towns, and made appropria- tions fer continuing and pushing the werk ameng the farmers. There have bheen three meetings in Baltic and sev- en in Jewett City, with a good pros- pect of a local being formed at the latter place. In a week or so there will be a mass meeling with three speakers at Pawcatuck. It was stated that an efficial opinion had been obtained that in towns which have voted free school books free sup- olies are included when not expressly excluded, and locals are advised to le- mand free school suppli in such towns. AT THE AUDITORIUM. Vaudeville and Motion Pictures. A vaudeyville show that the crowd labeled one of the best of the season at the Auditorium opened on Monday at this house and scored an instant hit in popular favor for its headline num- ters. A well selected offerine of mo- tion pictures pt pace with the fine stage attractions. As a refined and artistic musical act Mr. and Mrs. Eilliott overtopped any thing in that line that the Auditorium bas offered and were heard with de- light in their excellent harp duets, Mr. Filiott’s bass solos. and their soprano and bass duets, which are given en- thusiastic applause that brings them Leck for curtain calls. In the comedy line there is a fine turn given by the Twe Durands, whao have a great knockabout act with Aancing, s.nging and roller skate dancing that is a big winner and gets the big hand.

Laws Changing. State Jaws on automobiiing are un- ‘The last legislature, A new chapter in the au tcmoblle law, known as chapter 85, has somewhat allered the old statute in This new act, approved took effect Aug. 1. Upon writing to the automobile department of the state secretary’'s \office the would-be operator receives from the office a blue card that is an “~- 'ica- tion for motor vehicle operator's li- cense.” Since the state requires no personal examination, the applicant fills in the blanks with the necessary information, to be catalogued on the files of the office. The application, on on its return to the office, bears the rame of the applicant, his street and postoffice address, his age in years and months, his sex, height. weight. color of eyes, color of hair, whether the ap- plicant desires to operate for hire, the approximate number of miles he has cperated motor vehicles on the high- ways, whether he habitually uses in- toxijcating beverages to excess, whather he has any mental or physical infirm- ity, the nature of the infirmity,whetber he is familiar with the rules of the road and the motor vehicie Jaw. Upon the reception of this application with the fee of $2 from the applicant, the office issues a license. Carry License at All Times. The law in force until Jan. 1 re# quires that a person shall be 18 years old before he shall receive a license. Ore who is 16 years old or more, pro- vided he has not applied for a license ard been refused, or has not had his license suspended or revoked, may drive when accompanied by a licensed operator. Every person who receives a llcense must endorse it with his sig- | nature in the piace provided. All li- censes expire at midnight on the last éay of February in each year. The operator’'s license must be carried at all times while the holder is driving cn the public highway. The operator must show his license to any proper officer upon demand. The law will be substantially the same after Jan. 1. | “After a hearing, the secretary has the power to suspend or revoke any 'icense when there is sufficient cause. The secretary can suspend a license without a hearing when he thinks the holder is improper or incompetent to operate motor vehicles, or is operating | improperiy so as to endanger the pub- {lie. A lecense shall not be reissued un- lesg, upon examination or investigation |or a hearing. the secretary determines that the operator should again be per- | mitted to operate a machine. When- ever an accident of a motor vehicle re- suits in the death of anybody. the sec- retary suspends the license, according to law, and hoilds a hearin~ to deter- mine whether the operator was af fault. He then returns the license. or suspends it, or revokes it. as he thinks proper. No operator whose license is so revoked shall be licensed again within two years after the date of the revocation. Whenever a license is re- voked or suspended notice is traps- | mitted to the chief of police of the citv | or the prosecuting officer of the tawn i or borough in whirh the person whose license IS suspended or revoked re- sides. e e e TELEPHONE EMPLOYES, Working for Prizes in Securing Tips for New Subscribers.
