The vigilance of the police, however, has secured their recovery shortly after being stolen. â€" In order to cope with the operations of an international ring of motor car thieves that functions with Quebec as a clearing house, there has been formed what is known as the Canaâ€" dian Automobile Recovery Bureau and as a result of the activities of the organization, members of the ring are being prosecuted. The small but efficient corps of constables employed by the organization has been meeting with‘ much success, it having been able so far to identify 95 per cent. of the cars of all types seized, with mutilated serial and engine numâ€" bers, and 100 per cent. of the highâ€"priced cars. The international traffic in stolen cars, according to a writer in the Canadian Motorist, became so great in Quebec that it aroused the trade and industry as well as the insurance interests.
