A ruling which government and police officers consider important in combatting the running of stolen automobiles across the border was handed down Monday afternoon by federal judge W. R.

Smith when he overruled a motion of the defence to quash an indictment against Severiano Duran. Duran was charged with transporting out of Texas an automobile alleged to have been stolen in El Paso November 13 from E. W. Sauer. The dismissal of the case was asked on the contention that, since the defendant was arrested at the Stanton street bridge, the car was not taken out of he state.

This was the first time this point svas raised during a trial, according to the department of justice, was therefore considered as a test under the Dyer act. Officers pointed out that should the motion have been sustained, men arrested at international bridges driving alleged stolen automobiles could not be prosecuted under the Dyer act, us has been the practice. The jury Tuesday returned a ver- of guilty to the charges in the indictment. Sentence was deferred.
