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

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.
"Tho modern criminal, If he Is shrewd,
travels In an nutomohlle. He either
steals or onus one. Ho Knows that after
the commission of the crime he can
