'Local automobile owner* are dis- ,
regard1!!*? .the warning to obtain \
their licenses for next year as soon ,
as possible, according to Agent Max
Oibian. Although repeated notices
have been given out, Mr. Oibian says
that acknowledgement on the part
of the public has been very slight
and if immediate attention Is not
given to the matter many persons are
certain to he turned away in the
last minute rush.
Mr. Gibian points out that under
the new law there is three times as
much detail attached to the work
of issuing licenses as in former years
and while the local office is prepared
to handle ail applicants presenting
themselves now there will he abso
lutely no chance of accommodating
•veryone at the last moment. Un
der the new law the series and motor
number of each machine must be
taken and the applicant mupt be
sworn and acknowledged by a notary
public. The horsepower of each ma
chine must be figured too, Mr. Gib
ian says.
Fifteen thousand licenses must be
issued between December 1 and the
end of the month and unless appli
cations come in at a more rapid rate
than at present much inconveniences
will be cnusrd. Mr. Gibian continued.
The local agency cannot he rosponsi
blie for failure to obtain 11)22 li
censes in view of the several warn
ings. Orders have been issued by the
state commissioner that no licenses
are to be issued on New Year's Day. |
Car owners wishing to fill out their
applications at home will he accom
modated. Mr. Gibian announced this
morning, and those desiring to take
advantage of this angle of the situa
tion are asked to call at the Madison
