CHANDLER PRE- PARES TO ACT AS THE COUNTY COURT LIFTS THE INJUNCTION With the lifting of the temporary in- junction banning the use of 40 voting machines purchased by the Lancaster county commissioners last year, offici- als of Mount Joy borough, voters of which decided last November to have voting machines installed there, started a drive to see that they are installed in time for the elections this year, it was learned Sunday night. The last obstacle in the way of using the machines in Lancaster city and Elizabethtown borough this year was removed on Saturday when Judge John M. Groff, in a decision, dissolved the temporary injunction, which was brought into effect, as a result of a complaint filed October 23, 1930, by Robert E Lee Tomlin, of this city. Although, by law, the county com- missioners are not compelled to install voting machines in Mount Joy until one year after the favorable vote. Burgess W. D. Chandler of Mount Joy stated Sunday everting that he is in- vestigating the situation and that he will make every effort to have them install in time for the Fall elections. Burgess Chandler declared that the residents of the borough confidently expected to have the machines in- stalled this year, but as no action has been taken by the commissioners, he stated that he is prepared to take ac- tion. The county now owns a total of 50 voting machines, ten of which have been in use since the time of purchase in the first two wards of the city. The other 40 were to have been used in the other voting districts of the city and in Elizabethtown last Fall, but their use was forestalled by the in- junction granted Tomlin. County commissioners intimated Saturday that they have discussed the purchase of other machines informally, and that action will be taken in the near future. With the exception of Elizabethtown and Mount Joy, no county voting districts have approved the use of the machines. (Turn to page 4.) re A Mn, The Court’s Order Ha, Housed!

New Motor Code Makes Changes AMENDMENTS CONTAIN A NUM- BER OF CHANGES OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES The amended vehicle code as ap- proved by Governor Gifford Pinchot contains a number of changes of special interest to the smaller communities of the State. Some of these were sum- marized today by officials of the Bu- reau of Motor Vehicles. Boroughs and incorporated towns and cities now have a financial as well as a safety interest in enforcing traffic control at “Thru Highways” and “Stop” intersections within their limits. By an amendment to the code all fines. penalties and bail forfeited resulting from violation of “Thru Highways” and “Stop” signs within the limits of such divisions are now to be paid to the treasurer of the division in which the offense occurred. Funds resulting from such fines are to be used in the construction, repair and maintenance of highways. Here- tofore, such money was collected by the local authorities and turned over to the State. Other fines collected are disposed of in accordance with old code. Establishment of “Thru Highways” has been extended to give that au- thority to counties on approval by the Secretary of Highways. Previous to the amendment such authority was given only to cities, boroughs, incorporated Under the amended code, county au- thorities in addition to those previous- ly authorized are permitted to designate through highways by erecting at the entrance thereto from . intersecting { 10:00 7 Our {inion Picnic At Hershey July 31 SUNDAY SCHOOLS OF MOUNT JOY, FLORIN AND COMMUNITY WILL UNITE IN THIS BIG AN- NUAL EVENT—WILL GO BY TROLLEY Our kiddies, and many of the old- er folks too, are looking forward to Friday, July 31 because that's the day set aside for our annual union Sunday School picnic.
