Blair, S.M.. in the Magistrate's- Court yesterday. _ Le Compte (Mr W. F. Brown) pleaded guilty to the charge. Chief Patrol Officer J. Brown said a traffic officer saw Le Co«npte driving his car in St. Asaph street and Fitzgerald avenue. Mr W. F. Brown said Le Compte had only aix weeks to go before he would have been allowed to drive again. His friend's car ' had broken down and he was finding it difficult to get to work. 'Hie Magistrate said Le Compte’s record seemed impeccable apart from his driving record, so he would not send him to prison. CHARGE DISMISSED A charge against Graham Bernard Stewart, aged 22 (Mr M.

CHARGE DISMISSED A charge against Desmond William Wild, a company manager (Mr A. K. Archer), of failing to supply information required by the Trans-

port Department was dismissed. A traffic offence notice was issued against Wild when a car owned by him was found incorrectly parked on the south side of Tuarn street on October 8 last year. Letters were sent by the Transport Department asking for particulars. but these were not furnished, said Traffic Officer J. McMorran. Wild said the first letter claimed to have been sent by the department was not received by him. The final letter. sent by registered mail on October 25, was the first intimation he had of the affair. The car was at that time used as a garage run-about and by clients of the firm, said Wild. He made inquiries among the staff, but none could remember the incident, nor could they recall whether the vehicle had been lent at that time. After three weeks, tracing such particulars was impossible, he said. He was quite willing to take liability for the parking offence, as he was at that time the registered owner of the car. but he did not think he should be expected to furnish the information asked for three weeks after the incident.
