to Mr.. Guyer's office and secure such
license tags without any additional
cost.
"The naming of Mr.. Guyer as our
representative will naturally divert
some business here from the justices
Of the peace, but it need not neces-
sarily do so II their friends choose
to stand by them"
what will Mr.. Guyer get for his
trouble if the fee is taken by the
justice OF the peace" asked the
Journal reporter.
"He will get nothing" replied Mr..
Benson. He understood that when
he was named and If he works for
nothing that is his lookout"
"If for any reason the justice of
the peace or notary public so de-
slres," continued Secretary Benson,
he may send direct to the Secre-
tary of States office, in Dover. and
secure the license tags. but when he
has the opportunity Of sending a
block or so away from his office
and getting them with no extra pay,
naturally we expect them to do 80. "
When asked how he felt on the
subject of placing tho Wilmington
magistrates on a salary and doing
away with fee systems now in vogue,
Secretary Benson expressed himself
as heartily in favor of such a change
and said that he believed eventually
the fee system will be abolished in
that office, as it has in the Secre-
tarv of States office and other
offices of the state and the Justice
Of the Peace would be put on a
straight salary.
Secretary Benson Is in Whining
ton today because he was sum-
moned here as a witness in a civil
action now before Superior Court.
He held a conference at noon today
with a number of friends in the Of
fee of Judge Daniel o. Hastings in.
the Industrial Trust Building.
Magistrates Stradley. GluckmanI
and Black, accompanied by Superin-
tendent of Police Black and James
2. Jones went to Dover yesterday 10
protest against the announced
change in the manner Of Issuing au-
tomobile licenses.
They were unable to talk with Mr..
Benson as he was away from the Of
fee. However. they saw Governor
Denney and talked over the proposed
change with him.
Governor Denney declined to in
terfere on the ground that It was
matter that moro properly should
be regulated by the Secretary of
state. He discussed with the visitors
the subject of salaries for the Will
mington rcagistrites and assured
them he was in favor of changing
these officers from the present fee
system TO salary basis. all free 10 bel

mitted they were much opposed 10 !
the change and could not see how |
the State would derive any benefit /
by the naming OF an extra official 10 |
handle automobile licenses in VII !
The change. according to Secre-
tary Benson, is largely due to the !
passage OF the act requiring the |
utling of all automobiles.
"The law IS intended primarily 20
make Il more difficult for automobile
thieves in this State to traffic in
stolen property" said Mr.. Benson.
"and I do not believe it works to the
injury of any one. We hope to make
It a benefit to the state"
