NUMBER OF AUTOS
IN STATE INCREASES
License Collections Have Already
Passed Total for All of
Last Year

If the license cards for the, auto
mobiles authorized to operate in this
state could be stacked into one pile
they would tower sc feet high. If
piled one upon the other the last
card for the last car when filed away
would look down upon most OF the
buildings in the state and If they
were spread upon the ground they
would cover-well, it would take the
office force of Director of Licenses
Fred ]. Dibble week or more TO
pick them up, get them in order again
and place them in the filing cabinets.
All this illustrates in way the
Growth of the business of owning
ones own car. Mr.. Dibble tried TO
forecast the spread of the passion
for car-ownership to the last legis-
lature but the solons did not credit
him with proper sense. His fault
was that he did not forecast extrav-
agantly enough-the growth Mr.. Dib-
BILE foretold for two years was reach
ed in the first twelve months. The
legislatures idea of the departments
needs to take care of new business
represented about six months idea
of a two. years development.
More than a week ago the license
collections passed the record for the
whole year of 1928 when $3,S9S,591
was piled in for motor vehicle icens-
es. Director Dibble believes more
than s4,5OO,OOO will be received this
wear. For the biennial period ending
April /, it is probable the license
fees will approximate $S,5O0,OOO or
more than the Legislature estimated.
The number of licensed drivers is
not keeping up the same proportion
ate increase. However, last week
more than 100000 drivers had been
licensed during the first ten months
of the present two-year period. Dur
ing the first two years the law was
in effect, 300,168 drivers were Ii
censed and two years ago at the end
of May the number was only 23S,70S.
