Destroy Old Auto Plates Warning to Car Owners Destroy your old license plates or place them under lock and key, is the warning issued by J. H. Braun, general counsel for the Chicago Motor club. Every year at this time, police rec- ords disclose that some serious crimes and numerous automobile thefts are committed by criminals using cars dis- guised with last year's license plates. A criminal may easily elude identifica- tion by the use of old license plates which have been cast into the alley on the rubbish pile. In the interests of the community, motorists should take every precaution to prevent thieves from getting 1927 license plates.
