MAY GO INTO MARYLAND
WITHOUT TAG FOR AWHILE
Washington Auto Owners Get Few
Days Of Grace Owing to License
Delay at Office.

Washington automobile owners who
desire to take their cars into Maryland
may do so for the next two or three
days without fear of arrest for not
having a Maryland license. This is due
to the fact that Deputy Automobile
Commissioner Charles e. Bean and his
assistant was unable to issue these tags
to many local owners before tho close
Of his office at midnight Saturday. The
quiet tip has, 1t Is stated. been sent to
officers in Montgomery and Prince
Georges counties to simply wink at the
failure of drivers to display 1917 tags.
Mr.. Bean stated this morning that
even had his force been sufficient to
issue these tags he would not have
been able to do so for the very simple
reason that the tags, which are being
made in New York. had not arrived
at his Office, although he was informed
that they were In the freight office in
Washington.
During Friday and Saturday the
Deputy Commissioner relieved WASH
ingtonians of about $4,000 on account
Of 1917 tags.
At midnight Saturday there were
about 100 applicants for tags turned
away from the office. Mr.. Bean thinks
that everything will be running
smoothly In about a weeks time.
