Perth Amboy Ranks Lowest
in Issuance of Plates, Agt.
Gibian Says
I Perth Amboy ranks the lowest in
' this state for the issuance of auto
mobile licenses for 1922, at the
completion of ten days of the issu
ance period. Max Gibian, local
agent, announced yesterday after
. noon.
' Mr. Gibian declares that he Is
rather disappointed in the way the
i people are heeding his warnings,
> me! he hopes that there- will be no
\ criticism of him as a result of
' the manner In which applicants are
.iolding off, because his office has
been well equipped since the first
uay of December.
The agent states that the public
has been requested under the new
uiw to be sure and have their serial
number as well as their motor num
ber when making application, and
f Iso that all commercial vehicles
_^Y.re to be weighed and the weight
Hr dip brought In with application as
• ihese vehicles are now classified the
same as a solid tire vehicle.
Mr. Gibian advises the public to
go and get their applications In ad
vance as all license holders now
have to be sworn In before a notary.
The local agpnt declares that If
ihe public fails to heed the niimer
>us warnings given, there is no
doubt but that there will be over
five thousand disappointed appli
ants after December 31. Mr. Gib
ian points out that there positively
will be no licenses , Issued or^ New
Year's day .Inasmuch as Qommls
doner Dill has issued an order to
his effect and requests that ail
-gents enforce same.
