FIFIELD PLANS EXCHANGING OF AUTO RECORDS Suggests National Hookup as Foray on Car Thieves. A nation-wide foray on auto thieves with the possibility that it may bring about a clearing-house of information on motor cars was conceived today by Otto G. Fifield, secretary of state, when he wrote secretaries of state of the country requesting whether an interchange ol automobile records of each state would be feasible. Fifield proposes that each state in the Union send its motor car ownership list to the other fortyseven states. “It would enable police departments in each state to have a bureau of information regarding car

He suggested that if all states had a complete system of keeping engine numbers on autos as in Indiana, that auto thefts would drop. “The system of interchanging motor car ownership statistics of each state should not be elaborate, but even the exchange of original owners of cars at the first of each year would act as a curb on auto thieves,” he said.

Sometimes it would last for a week, then disappear, and in a couple of weeks would break out again.
