ee eee fs POLICE INSPECTION | OF AUTOS STARTS NEW KIND OF GRAFT Placards All Alike and Many Already Have Been Stolen and Transferred. Tt was learned to-day, after more than 10,000 automobiles had been in- epected by the Police Department, that the new ruling of the Commis- sioner has opened an additional source of graft and “protection” to those “in the know.” The small, rectanrular placards which are be- ing placed on the inspected cars t exp! is entitled “Thou Shalt Not Kill,” and won't cost you a cent. And wheh you get your sticker it might be ” good “aticker thieves” and avoid further inspections, = amen cae THIRD CHILD SHOT BY BLACK AND TANS Girl of 15 Killed in Reprisal Raids In County Kerry. Annie O'Nell, twelve, who was shot dead on Saturday, and a child of five who was wounded by Mack and Tans in a Dublin street, another girl named O'Connell, fifteen years old, wan killed by them at Ardfert, County Kerry. Efforts are being made to Induce the Irish Labor Congress, which assem have absolutely no distinguishing marks. They are all the same: the police do not even bother to write with indelible penci] the number of the car inspected, As a result, Mr. Brown's placard, Ddeing sought by Mr. Smith, whose en- gine has a knock, may be removed and transferred. In fact, the damp weather of this week has facilitated the removal of the notices, and hun- @reds have already been stolen and transferred. The persons who went through a bona fide inspection and lost their placards must go through ‘another one, with @ like chance of _ their deing stolen. LAquor dealers are said to have a good supply of these placards which they present with every sale of case goods. Naturally, revenue agents will not bother with a touring car which has on it the stamp of the Po- ice Department's approval. Many of the policemen are doing thelr best to obey orders, but are handicapped by a lack of knowledge of automobiles. A reporter of The Evening World watohed one of the “inspectors” from an upper Broadway curb. The patrolman wrote down the data about the chauffeur on a litte yellow slip and noted the driver's license number and the number of the far. Then he listened for a moment carefully and earnestly, “Only a littie crick In the generator @hain,” deciared the driver. ‘The cop scratched hin head “Don't let it happen too often,” bles at Dublin, to dlacontinue the strike policy of raflway men againat handling trains conveying troops, palice and munitions, DUBLIN, Nov. 14--In addition ‘to; The Sina Fein indorses the strike policy, holding that working on trains conveying troops and munitions is as- sisting the enemy.
