Wellington police court i i Friday december 9, 1932. Before or. J. A. H. Balmain Herbert Bailey was brought up on a charge of maliciously wounding Constable Ernest Alfred Hill. On the application of the police he was remanded until monday. George Watts failing to pay motor tax pleaded guilty and was fined �1, with 8/ costs and was ordered to pay the amount of �7/3/9 motor tax. Three months were allowed in which to pay. ,. The Case of William Pascoe v Les lie Fahey for entering enclosed lands was withdrawn. . Shop raid there was a crowded court when the Case of Walter Sibrava was called on and he was charged with using a room for the purpose of betting therein with persons resorting there to. The Case arose out of a raid last saturday week by sergeant Sweeney of Dubbo and sergeant Campbell of Wellington. The late or. W. P. Kelly appeared for the defendant and he pointed out that his client who was very ill could not appear but he was plead ing guilty on his behalf. Sergeant Campbell in stating the facts of the Case said that on the 3rd instant he visited the premises and found v clerk there taking bets on the phone. The clerk said that he could see that they were not bet Ting with women or children. Tie defendant had had a previous conviction in 1928. There was a hairdressing business in the front part of the premises but this shop was not con ducted by the defendant. Owing to the depression there wag not a great Deal of betting which was carried out in a Small Way from 2/ to 5/ bets. The late or. Kelly said that his client was charged under a certain Section of the betting act and that he was pleading guilty. He was go ing to make an Appeal 011 his client s behalf though it did not commend it self to him the speaker but he must do so in Justice to his client. He referred to the very bad state of or. Sibrava s health. In referring to the Law As to . Establishments he said he would say it advisedly for the Benefit of the police that the awl was rather hypocritical and there was a lot of hypocrisy about it. He quoted the words of a noted Jurist who had. Said the Law locked up the person who took the Goose from the common but did no Ching to the one who took the common from the Goose the people in country towns cannot go to the racecourses in the City where the betting is allowed yet the Law stopped it in the country in private places but was not Able to suppress it. The government thought it better to get Revenue from fining people than granting licences for per Mission to bet in private places. His client was not guilty of any moral Defiance of the Law. His client was a reputable and Law abiding citizen. It was in october 1928, that the last conviction took place and he would ask his worship to take into consideration that at was four years ago and to take also into consideration the depression generally in business not betting business of course. Another fact that was in his favour was that he did not allow minors or women to bet. The advocate read a letter from or. Yuille of Dubbo to show that Sibrava had undergone a most serious operation and that lie was a Lucky Man to be alive. In fact said the late Sibrava was hovering Between life and death and was still an outdoor patient of a j private Hospital in Wellington. The . Inflicted a Fine of �25, with costs amounting to �5714. He was allowed four months to pay in monthly instalments of �7/13/6 each Kenneth d. Ferguson for whom or. Frank. Davidson of messes quirk and Davidson appeared also pleaded guilty to a. Similar charge. Sergeant Sweeney who took charge of this Case gave similar Evi Dence to that of the previous Case As to finding books etc., and 17 people on the premises. The bets were not ? big ranging irom h to 0/-. ? or Davidson pointed out that it w a the Day of the test match arid the fact of there being Many people caught on the premises was due to the fact that some of them had gone to listen to the scores Over the wire less and the books would prove that some of Thenn had not had a. Bet. He also referred to the bad times every one was going through. The . Said that there Wasa maximum penalty of �100 for this offence. He would inflict a Fine of �20, with �5/14/ costs in default 52 Days hard labour. Time was Al Lowed to pay As Iii the Prev bus Case in monthly instalments of �6/8/6 the books and papers found on the premises were forfeited though the defendants were allowed Access to them.? Twenty three persons who were on. The premises 5 in the Case of Sibrava and 17 in the Case of Ferguson were each fined 30/-, in default three Days. A fortnight was allowed to pay in each Case.

Touring department has been inundated with inquiries re Garding suitable camping grounds for the coming Christmas and new year holidays. Camping this year is Likely to be More popular than Ever. The Success of the organised . Camp at Lake Illawarra entrances Al ready is assured. Tent site reservations through messes Nock and Kirby Ltd. Are particularly heavy and the whole of the available space is Likely to be taken up Long before the Camp opens.

If the interval Between the ringing of the first and second Bells. Is too Brief the policeman on duty fair Down the Road takes the Motorist s name and address. The Experiment of using mounted police As traffic controllers in London has proved impracticable. The . Says that the Nett effect of the new scheme for the pay ment of motor taxation by instal ments is that All motorists taking advantage of the quarterly arrange ment will be required in the year to pay �1/15 registration fee and an additional ten per cent of tie amount of the annual taxation. Thus a car owner who now pays �1 a year registration and �4 a year if he pays quarterly in future will pay �6/3 As against �5. The . Accepts the principle of being better than nothing at All but strongly objects to the particular Way in which it is being applied As the Burden on the Small Man Able to pay Only in instalments will be excessively heavy. The Only apparent explanation of the present proposal is that the department wishes to discourage motorists from Tak ing out quarterly registrations. As a result of Rhodesia coming off the Gold Standard quite Good Busi Ness has been done in the Sale of British cars. From january to aug ust 148 cars were imported from the United kingdom 26 from Canada 28 from the Union and 27 from the United states. ? in the first ? eight = months of this year approximately 1,120,000 cars were produced in the . This compares with 2,022,000jn_ the Cor responding period of 193l the president of the . Or. J. C. Watson says that one can scarcely credit that the present government intends to raid the main funds by diverting to Consoli dated. Revenue �200,000 of the amount received from taxation specially imposed on motorists for Road purposes. The wrong an do unfair character of such raids was something for hich the Bavin government condemned the Lang government and later introduced an amending Law to cancel the effect of or. Lang s legis 1 native burglary. Yet the government i intends to do the same thing. Arid i this despite the repeated official declarations that roads Revenue has fal Len far below actual requirements.

Clogged Radiator probably very few motorists real ise that clogged radiators Are a source -. Of lost Ower. In som of the larger commercial vehicles and tractors adequate Means for inter Nally cleaning the Radiator have been provided for by fitting them with Demountable upper and lower tanks and using Plain vertical tubes for the Cooling elements but the average car lacks anything of this kind. It is Well known that in the measure with which a Radiator s Cooling surface be comes even partially blocked so its Cooling value is reduced. This is provided for by a generous allowance of Cooling area while the Radiator is new but Best results Are not obtained when the Radiator becomes to a degree clogged up.

Although apples have their Virtues the saying an Apple a Day keeps the doctor away should be revised to an onion a Day keeps the doctor Nway one Humble onion is Worth fifty apples from the medicinal Dis ease preventing Point of View. It almost seems As if the onion was specially created for the definite purpose of keeping men and women healthy free from disease and practically immune from infection. An onion for preference eaten raw will in its passage through the body destroy every poisonous germ and purify the blood a sliced on Ion placed in an open dish in a sick room will gather to itself the Mic Robes and germs in the air quite As Well As any expensive disinfectant will do. But the onion must after wards be thrown away never eaten. Keep the flu away. Those who include onions in their regular diet never suffer from Neur Algia headache or Kindred troubles. When influenza is about not a Doc Tor in the land could prescribe a bet Ter preventive than the Humble onion. The juice of the Apple is Good for the Teeth but the juice of an onion is a Hundred times better. The Freedom from disease and longevity of the Breton onion grow 1 ers is Yvell known and the smooth and Silky complexion of the women has often been remarked. For a fact for a Clear skin and Beautiful complexion nothing can beat onions. Yes they make the breath odor Ous but Only until your system has become accustomed to them. ? an onion poultice on a Bruise will quickly Takeaway All discoloration. A painful Strain or sprain is also eased by an onion poultice. Finally onion juice is excellent for a Wasp sting and for raising hair on Baid Heads and yet in nine houses out of ten an onion could not be found at any time in the year notice to trespassers All persons found trespassing on Reguera or estate lands under my supervision will be prosecuted without respect to persons.
