That the courts of the country are not dealing severely enough with au tomobile thieves was the almost unan imous sentiment expressed at the con vention of the National Traffic Offi cers' association held in Seattle, ac cording to Chief of. Police Johnson, who has just returned from that gath ering. Chief Johnson said officers gath ered at the convention expressed the belief that if more drastic penalties were imposed in cases of auto theft, it would be a great assistance to the stamping out of auto thieving. The chief expressed the belief that a plan of co-operation on the part the police and sheriff's offices all over the country would be worked out as the result of the gathering in Seattle, and thereby more speedy ar rests made in cases of auto theft. "Portland is the first city requiring a thorough check of garages and this was received by the delegates at the gathing as a step in the eradication of auto thieving." said Chief Johnson.
