LAW UNcoNsTITUrIoNAI,.

Motorists are coming into their own as far as the subject of taxation is concerned to judge from court ac- tions in Mississippi, Ohio and Michi- gan. In the last named state, follow ing the example of the other tWo the supreme court has declared 1t uncon- stitutiona1 to charge the graduated registration fee of fifty cents a horse power, the measure that was passed last fall
 The court held that the purpose of the legislation in exacting so large an amount from the owners of motor cars was to produce a, fund for high way purposes under the guise of reg ulation, making it tax measure and clearly not covered by the title of the act. The court adds: There can be no more labor or expense in regis tering. vehicle of high horsepower than in registering one of low horse power, and the only reasonable pt1r- pose in the graduated fee is the in creased revenue.'
 As a result all thatScan be retained of the fee is $3 a car under the old registration act, and about $20O 900 collected will have to be returned.

UNDER RKARDo PATENTS.

: With the news that Packard cars are fully licensed under the important patents of the Kardo Company, pa- irons have expressed a keen interest in the deve1opn ents which have led up to this announcement.
 For some time past three prominent manufacturers have owned the broad patents covering the front and rear axle consultations generally in use. There has been talk of litigation among these manufacturers. but they have wisely adjusted matters by nu- tual1y exchanging licenses under these axle patents.
 The agreements providing for this interchange of patent rights were fol- lowed by the incorporation of the kardo Company, which now owns all the patents directly involved. Other concerns wishing to avail themselves of licenses nnd CT the Kardo patents now have the opportunity to do so.
 The Packard Company has always endeavored to lead in the matter of original research work, and has been diligent in obtaining patents covering the results of it's inventive efforts That company to-day owns more than 200 patents and in addition has nearly as many pending in-thee patent oflce As one of the1thr co1fcernS which organized the Kardo Company, the Packard is licensed under all the Kardo patents This not only strengthens the position of the Pack ard Company but gives to patrons ad- ditionals security against patent litiga- ton.

Automobile News
TOOL OF CIVILIZATION. z

.sNever in the history of the motor car industry has it been so absolutely demonstrated that the automobile is a tool of civilization as during the past few months. says President W. H. Van Dervoort of the Moline Auto mobile Company.
 e.Pessinlistic talk has been rife for the past six months. The gossip mons-s sers have spread broadcast fictitious stories that we were lettering on the brink of a financial panic and have circulated rumors that the motor car history was going to the dogs
 .sIf there has really been money | strfngency it has not hit the motor car industry; at least not those man ufacturers who are making honest cars at honest prices
 My statements are based on official figures Issued by various secretaries Of state relative to new records for mo- tor car registrations. Take for in stance, the state1sof Illinois. During a period from January Is to March 25. 51OOO regfsfrations have been made This. mind you. is the worst buying season of the year. With 51 ,00o cars already registered and the buying season only just begun, it is evident that registration records in Illinois will be shattered by many more thousand.
 During 1918 there were 37, GOO reg llStrat1onS In IHIInOlS a4a1ASts Z1s1u0 III 1912. There has already been a gain of 14,0O0 over 1918 for the same pe riod and an increase over 1912 of 29,- 900.
 Not only is this true of Illinois, but, other states show a big increase In motor car buying regret I have, not at hand the total increase of reg istrations throughout the country as these figures would put to rout any pessiHistfc theories. <
 .AThe motor car has become a neces sity and we could not do without it any more than we could get along without the telegraph, telephone or railroad. It is performing a service far better than any other invention known. It has taken its rightfu1 place in our every day life. It has brought the city nearer the country. It has wiped away border lines. It has brought far better roads. It has made the sick we'll and brought back good health where medicine failed.
 seThe m otor car is an inevitable evo- lution whose onward march can not be checked any more than the Allan ties tide can be stemmed. It has given employment to thousands of people The industry has pulled up with it hundreds Of accessory con- scerns who employ another large army sof workmen.
