Do Not Excuse Owners from Pay

Lockwood to arrest all owners of au-
only one number on, or pasteboaTd
tags or dealers number cards used
more than fifteen days or the sign
license applied for" MIR. Lockwood
does not intend to he lenient with Of
tenders. He contends that it is now
September and far past the time for
the payment of license fees.
The man of biblical times had moth
ing on the man of today trying to put
across excuses fer the non payment Of
the motor vehicle tax. County Attor-
ney Lockwood is as busy as the pro-
verbal hen with her chickens. His
telephone is ringing constantly and his
stenographer is giving receipts 10
people who come to the office and pay
their automobile tax. Since the an
nouncement that the taxes were due
and a penalty attached for every
month since April, delinquents have
been making tracks to the office of the
county attorney.
More Than 800 Sent Out.
More than see delinquent notices
were sent out. Only the one notice
goes out: after that the sheriff is in
structed to seize the car. The most fire.
Quenr excuse fer the non payment OF
the fee is that the owner has junked
his car. One woman called up the
county attorneys office today and said
she had not used her car since last
October; that the body OF ii was being
used for holding grain on the farm, the
wheels were sold to various parties, the
battery was disposed of and the engine
missing. II would be necessary 10 trail
all over the county to get this car to-
gsther again. If an owner has sold his
car during this year he has no excuse
TO offer for not paying his license fee
In many cases the cars are sold and it
Is necessary TO trace the sale before the
new owner can be found.
When the delinquent pays the tax
and penalty attached he is given a re-
ceipt which he sends into the secretary
Of state. Mr.. Lockwood IS going after
the offenders without gloves and pro-
poses TO make the delinquents nay up
before il is time for the next wears
