FALSE PRETENCE
DEALINGS WITH MOTOR CAR By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON. June 20. Sentences totalling four months' imprisonment were imposed on Reginald James Vercoe Bradley, a labourer, aged 29, charged with having obtained money by a false pretence. It was stated that he traded in a car at Tauranga, being allowed £25 against £75 for another. No money passed, accused agreeing to pay the balance on the hire-purchase system. Later, at Auckland, he represented to a dealer that the car was his own and accepted £8 2s 6d for it. The Tauranga firm subsequently repossessed the car and the Auckland dealer lost his money.
