At a NYC Board of Aldermen meeting, Aldercritter George Harvey condemns the NYPD’s issuing of special “P.D.” plates to at least 250 people whose identities have been kept secret and who use them to drive however they damned well feel like. Harvey wants a list of plate-holders. Some rich dudes admit to possessing them including the presidents of the American Car and Foundry Company, the Empire Safe Deposit Company, and Brooklyn Edison; also the maître d'hôtel of the Waldorf. Harvey calls for the withdrawal of plates from non-cops.
Headline of the Day -100:
Paul von Hindenburg, 77, is sworn in as president of Germany. Is there goose-stepping? You bet your ass there’s goose-stepping.
Three-time presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan will act as lawyer for the World’s Christian Fundamental Association in the Scopes trial. I think he last practiced law in the 1880s.
