* Non - Enforcement of Taxi Law Causes Many Tragedies in N. Y.. Cold Figures of Dead and Maimed in Street Accidents Don’t Begin to Reveal the Pitiful Tales. By Sophie Irene Loeb. ‘The new law requiring the bonding of taxicab chauffeurs against acc!- Wents and deaths remains unenforeed. The officials charged with the enforcement of this law have ‘‘passed the buck"’ one to the other. But in the meantime the toll taken in human lives and in maimed and crippled goes on. Since the law went into effect July: 1, im a period of only three months, death and casualty lists among chil- dren alone chronicle eleven killed, +three seriously injured, 127 Slightly injured and sixty-six hurt but ‘unknown. In a period of eight months in the Trafic Court, 40 per cent. of the | humber of taxicabs running in the city have been in that court for viola- tions, the majority of them for speed- , ing, and against this but 9 per cent. f all the other vehicles running in he city appeared in this court. The chauffer left the dead child and disappeared. The number of the car was taken by witnesses. The chauffeur was found by the po- lice the next morning and arrested and was let out on $3,500 bail. He was of the Yale Corporation and his name was Teichman. He was tried at the police court and held for the Grand Jury, but the case was dis- missed. Further efforts are being made to secure redress, but with the chauffuer not bonded the matter seems hopeless a8 are nearly all of these cases, the number of uncollected judgments It is in the wearing of the Kayser Italian Silk Vests that their superior quality and ex- quisite tailoring are given the truest test.

But the Yale ‘Taxi Corporation is not Hable for its members. Owing to the laxity of the enforcement of the law, it has not yet been ascertained whether this car is liable or not.
