Fined £10 and Licence Suspended
(By 1'elegraph-
, # NELSON, This Day. For being intoxicated in charge of a car, James Thomas Calsey, radio salesman, was fined £10 and his licence suspended for three months by the magistrate, Mr. Maunsell, to-day. The magistrate remarked that men who require cars for employment must keep strictly sober or pay the consequences. Defendant's counsel suggested that it would be less punishment to impose imprisonment than cancel the licence, as defendant's living depended on his having a licence. The magistrate said that his practice was not to impose gaol for the first offenders, but he would for second offenders.
