Court Gives Them Chance to Tell All They Know of Crooked Motorcar Ring. Uprcial to The tiaflle.) Mineola, May 1 1 Carman I'laiit of Lynbiook.

former county detective under indictment for criminally having received stolen motorcars, for conspiracy with others in connection with the crime and for neglect of public duty as a peace officer, pleaded guilty us charged in the indictment before Justice James Cropsey in the Nassau County Supreme Court today. Aubrey 1'etiit of Baldwin, superintendent of county buildings, whose trial for having received stolen motor- cars was being held this week, also Idendcd guilty. Uoth men were taken before Justice Cropsey by their coun-1 Bel, Cieorge Al. Levy, and pleaded Sep- arately. I Developments came fast this morn- I ii.g.

George D. Smith of Hempstead. who was bondsman for Plant, called on District Attorney Charles; K. Weeks, whu was prosecuting the cases afiainst Plant and Pettit, last night and prom- led to produce Plant today, plant came, to the courthouse early this morning and was closeted with the i District Attorney for several hours, In the meantime, the jury hearing the Pettit trial was waiting. Finally after the non hour.

Pettit was brought bark to the courtroom and requested that his plea of not guilty be withdrawn mid one of guilty be entered. The breakdown of the Pettit case followed a confession by Plant. Plant was brought into court live minutes: later and changed his plea also through Lawyer Levy. Their pedigrees were taken and Justice Cropsey remanded the men to the county jail but suspended further action in their cases so that they "may avail them- Helves of the opportunity of telling all thoy know to the District Attorney." Plant ami Pettit, it is understood, will now reveal all they know of the crooked car game in Nassau County. A number of those who had testilieil in behalf of Plant in an effort to cover up their own wrong doings were in court today and were on the anxious 'eat.

It is known that the only chance Plant and Pettit have of getting a 'edueion in their sentences is by full confession of ho game without leaving out a name of everyone implicated. This this disclosure will be far-reaching and include persons in Nassau, Queens und Kings there is now no doubt, but Justice Cropsey and District Attorney Weeks Intend to have the facts in full. otherwise Plant and Pettit must take their tiled -leinee without a wince.
