P NEW LAWS CUT AUTO THEFTS Commissioner Sadler Expects Cars Will Be Much Safer ■' Here as Result signed fittingly to punish automobile T pL' r '~ar-3 number of thefts if the authorities fc diligently enforce these laws. Re ports from police authorities " throughout the State point to the %■ * fact that would-be motor thieves are thinking twice before committing a crime which may send them to the penitentiary for ten years. Not all of the thefts of motor cars which have taken place in Pennsylvania have been reported to the automo bile division of the State Highway Department. However, the records filed show that for the last two years at least one machine a day has been stolen in Pennsylvania. The exact number reported to the State v Highway Department up until Au gu-t 20. was 776. of which, it was al-- reported. 115 had been recov ered either by the owners or by po lice authorities. The State Highway Department upon receipt of infor mation that a car has been stolen places a special card in the files at tached to the originat application card giving the manufacturer's number. Should a thief, or a person who secured a car not knowing that it had been stolen, apply to the au tomobile division for a license for a car bearing this manufacturer's number, the theft would immediately be detected. The automobile divis ion proposes amplifying this system before the 1920 season begins and *• special request will be made of all / automobile license holders that they k notify the division immediately, " when a car has been stolen. In the future the records of the automo ' bile division will show the number of stolen motor vehicles reported each week and the number that have been recovered. Health Appointments.
