"Joy riding will be a thing of the past In the metropo lis and throughout the Empire state if the Callan motor vehicle law, which went Into effect fcl'ay, Is strictly en forced. And the word has gone forth among reckless drivers of auto mobiles that the officials mean busi ness and that violators of the statute will soon find themselves on the In side, looking out of a cell. . Many chaf feurs and reckless drivers have been deprived of their tags and the good work will go merrily on, It is promis ed, until . the whole pestiferous band of "joy riders" are given something resembling their Just deserts. Every chaffeur has been "mugged" and other methods of identification have been mad euse of to the end that no guil ty man escapes. The callan law Is In many respects the most stringent automobile legisla tion enacted In any of the thirty-three states which have passed statutes reg ulalng mjotor vehicle traffic. In one important provision, however, .. it is more liberal than the laws of other states, as it permits a maximum speed of thirty miles an hour. This Is from six to eighteen miles In excess of the speed permitted In other states.
