Chauffeurs Seek Permits to Carry Arms After Robbery Steal
After two masked highwaymen robbed a carful of passengers at gunpoint on the loop Saturday night, chauffeurs discuss seeking commissions as special policemen to carry arms for protection. If city approval fails, they may appeal to county authorities due to jurisdiction extending beyond the city line. The loop, favored by affluent autoists, is seen as a prime site for robberies on dark nights, prompting fears of continued criminal activity with little risk of capture.
