WilmiDgtonians.
The total registration for the first six
months Of this year was l6, ,lb2, of which
5,3ei Of tho cars were owned in Whining
ton.
The revenue from motor licenses for
the first six months was $2s6,333
Motor car registration in Delaware
has made the astounding Jump of from
3O50. in 1ol4-six years ago--to 1912
today, and this has increased the. state 9
revenue from automobiles from s35,672
in 1914 TO 1886 1893. The increase in num-
bcr Of automobiles has been at the rate
of about 1000 year. In 1917 the in
crease was about 5000 over 1915, and in
1919 the increase over 1918 was slightly
in excess Of this All persons in close touch
with tho automobile outlook are expect
ing TO see much greater increase in 1920.
