DISCONTINUANCE OF
CARD AUTO NUMBERS
In a letter addressed to the auto
moiilie clubs and the motor trades
associations of Lincoln and Omaha,
Assistant Public Works- Secretary
George K. Leonard calls attention to
the fact that automobile dealers and
their customers have been persistent
ly overstepping legal restrictions up
on the use ot dealers' number plate3
and temporary card numbers.
Unless the automobile trade and
the purchasers of cars stop their il
legal use, says Mr. Leonard, the is
suance of card numbers will be dis
continued. "I trust that your organizations
will see the handwriting on the wall
and do something toward carrying
out the intent of the Itw," he con
tinues. "If it is going to be neces
sary to have a police officer check
up on every card issued, it will Di
impracticable to continue their use,
Paper plate, or cards, are good
for only ten days, under the law
This is intended to give the pur
chaser of a car time to apply for
his regular number plate and obtain
it, paying the fee therfor. In
practice, Leonard says, dealers fail
to punch the cards with the date of
purchase or punch it for a week or
a month ahead, or furnish several
cards so that the user can punch
one after another himself and keep
on wthout buying a ilesnec
on without buying a license number
and plate.
Formerly, dealers had to buy a
special plate for every car in stock
paying a dollar apieie. Now they
buy one dealers' license number and
are allowed to issue the plates for
temporary use.
MERCHANT PRINCE
ALWAYS ARRIVED AT
WORK ON TIME
Among the host of tributes to the
memory of John Wanamaker, mer
chant prince, religious leader and
philanthropist, which continued to
pour into Philadelphia today from
all sehtions of the country', this one
stands out as unique.
"He was always at work on time."
With these seven words, Mr. Wan
amaker's first offise boy, George W.
Stall, summarized the serret of the
world renowned merchant's Euccess.
The one time off.ee boy, who swept
out. ran errands, delivered parcels
and gradually learned to do more im
portant routine work for his employ
er, is now superintendent of the
store.
Since the death of Mr. Wana
maker yesterday thousands of letters
and telegrams of condolence have
been received by his family. Flags
are at bait mast here for the first
time on the occasion of the death of
a private citizen.
Mr! Wanamaker's body will lie in
state in Bethany rtesbyterian churca
of which he was one of the founders,
from 10 o'clock until noon tomorrow.
The interment will take place to
morrow afternoon.

LABORITE MEMBERS OF PAR
LIAMENT IN DEMONSTRATION
London, Dec. 13. Laborite members
of the house of commons, angered by
the unemployment policy of the Bonal
Law government began a noise fili
buster which kept the chamber in an
uproar for hours.
"We will fight in the streets if you
do not give us what we want," was
the ominous threat of D. Kirkwood,
Scotch laborite, hurled at the occu
pants of the government benches. "If
we do not get what we need consti
tutionally we will take it unconstitu
tionally." J. T. Newbould attacked Stanley
Baldwin, chancellor o fthe exchequer.
"Just wait until your times comes,"
shouted Newbould, who is the only
communist member of parliament.
Other laborites made similar
speches threatening the government
for not taking immediate action to re
lieve distress arising from unemploy
ment of 1,300,000 workers .

MAYOR ZEHRUNG TELLS REAL
TORS OF TRAFFIC ORDINANCE
A resume of the proposed new Lin
coln traffic ordinances was given by
Mayor Zehrung before the realtors
subdivision of the Lincoln Chamber
ot Commerce Wednesday noon. The
mayor pointed out the salient feature
and objections to the proposed ordi
nance which have been called to his
attention.
That part ot the proposal which
requires motor vehicles to stop be
hind a standing street car is the
source of the most serious objections,
the speaker said. To escape this the
mayor suggested using less traveled
streets to avert congestion but that
a few minutes o ftime spent in pre
vention would naturally not be worth
the loss of life or limb.
