are being received at the rate of
about $50 day. 1T was stated at the
office of the secretary of state yes
terday The total number of licenses
issued so far is approximately 1867
600 the tag number not being con-
elusive of the actual number owing
to the fact that trucks and pleasure
cars are given a different serial, re-

Cost of the license varies from ST.

short of 10000, which means that
the state will be richer by something
more than sl.300.00D. when the
license tax is finally gathered in.
