paid fol license plates issued this
year and total receipts for 1923
were S4,798,430. A total of $685.
635 licenses have been issued in 1924
and state department officials
estimate the number issued before
January /, 1926 will exceed half a
million.
Spring weather has brought auto
license applications into this office
by thousands" Zimmerman said.
"On three record days in April we
turned out 8,O49, 1900, and 1920
plates. All Of these were record
breakers for the department. Our
average daily issue during January
and February was 2.439 q day and
the average during March, April and
