Hell's chariots is how Liverpool, recently attacked fur the
reluc-
tance of taxi-drivers to venture fout in might Alerts, describes
firm which specialises in "bomb fares,"
Nineteen men drivers, with their odd assortment of tin-hals, take their turns at night duty. it is their boast that they have never yet retused a bona-ñde fare.
"We draw the line at risking our necks for pub-crawlers and joy-riders." they told a report. er, "but when a call is from a Serviceman on Icave, a sailor who has to return to his ship. or just a businessman or house. wife anxious to get through the blitz we go."
home
The men get £3 a week for night duty plus tips, and nobody admires them more than the two women drivers who work them in day-time.
with
The owner Mr. D. L. Steine.. said: I make it clear that I want no funks my firm and explain what they have to do before my men join me.
"A Grand Bunch"
"They are a grand bunch, and I have not had one case of cry- ing off a tough job. The nor- mal single fare is charged for all-night calls."
In their last bulletin Liverpool Council of Social Service attacked the conduct of taxi-drivers. who changed Serv:cemen and officer double fares during night alerts and sometimes appeared reluctant to venture out even when there was no gunfire.

AND SHOOT

ONE SECOND IS THE TIME IT TAKES A G-MAN TO DRAW AND FIRE HIS REVOLVER.
of
This has been shown by a de- vice invented by two agents of the U. S. A. Federal Bureau Investigation, which records the time taken for a G-man to reach for his gun and hit a certaini target.
When using the device the contact,
G-man holds down which prevents the hands of the attached clock from moving.
When he lifts his hand to, reach for his revolver, the contact is released and the timer starts to operate and continues until the impact of the bullet on the target is registered.
