OTHER PEOPLE’S IDEAS
THEFTS OF BICYCLES (To the Editor.) Sir—A letter which appeared in your issue of yesterdays date should arouse great local interest, and might well raise a whole batch of questions which your readers, perhaps with advantage, could pursue while still hot. There is, for instance, the alarming increase in the number of bicycles stolen, a qustion in which I have a particular interest, my own machine having been misappropriated from a parking place which was regarded as being immune from the activities of thieves. What is going to be done about this question in general? It is appreciated that in the detection of bicycle thieves the police have an unenviable task, but it would appear that there is quite a substantial traffic in the conversion of stolen bicycles. This is a grave state of affairs, and it is hoped that something will soon be heard of the detection by the Police Department of one or more offenders, with the imposition of the stiffest penalties. —Yours, etc., TIM O’SHENKO. Masterton, March 5.
