MOTORISTS WARNED
COURT'S ATTITUDE TO INTOXICATION (tBBSS ASSOCIATION TELIGHAM.) AUCKLAND, May 3. "There will be a rude awakening for some of these people, for one will have to take up the attitude that in future, except where there are special circumstances, and, I emphasise, very special circumstances, imprisonment will have to follow." This statement was made by Mr C. R. Ovr Walker, S.M., in the Magistratef. Court, when fining Thomas Price, aged 39, a concrete worker, £35 for being intoxicated while in charge of a motor-car on the Franklin road on Saturday. Price's driving licence was cancelled for two years.
