money in dependable cars to allow irrepons- ible persons to venture out on the highways with old and dilapidated cars which have been purchased for 15 or 20 in some backyard the department would lave he support of tho vast majority of tho people both mo orists and pedes trians if it instituted a more ligor- ous examination of old and used cars before they are licensed no oiu wants to advocate any injustice but the safety of the highways requires that all cars shall be in good condi tion and equipped with all the mod crn apparaus for prompt and effec tive control anything less than this is

owners of motor vehicles if they receive relief must turn in their markers and driving permits to be released when relief ends it is a categorical principle that in dealing with large numbers of people and especially with people in distress there must be a kindly but firm routine it is the plan of this department gradually to decrease in every pos sible way the number of interviews held in this welfare building and we hope eventually to render it un necessary to have clients call here for orders this will avoid the em barrassment to clients of coming here and being recognized and will
