Standard Seven-Passenger CAPT. SOUDER WANTS AUTOS TO PURSUE MOTOR BANDITS DclcctivB Bureau Head Says His Men Arc Hampered in Crusade Against Thieves by Lack of Automobiles Declares Other Departments Have Cars They Do Not Need Organisation of an automobile corps of plainclothes men Is one way In which Captain of Detectives Souder hopea to nm down motor bandits here. Only with Jhe aid of motor vehicles can the detective bureau hope to cope successfully with criminals who uso automobiles In which to make a get away, said Captain Souder today, an nouncing that ho has requested author ization for the organization of a motor corps and the purchaso of machines for the exclusive uso of his department. At the present time, declared Captain Souder, tho detective bureau rolles on Its ability to borrow cars from other city departments when motor vehicles are needed In Its work. Tho bureau now does not have a single automobile of Us own, he said, while other city depart ments arc provided with cars they do not need. "In many progressive cities of the Middle West," Captain Souder said, "au tomobllo corps have been formed and the detectives have automobiles at their disposal at all hours of tho day and nignt. In Detroit, for Instance the city j is provided with more than 160 cars nnd the detective bureau and the police department gets the lion's share of them.
