MAY FORCE AUTOISTS
TO PROVE OWNERSHIP
Identification Cards May Also
Be Required Of Motor Vehicle
Owners in Georgia

ATLANTA, July 28.-Two bills
now before the Georgia Legislature
are of great interest to motor We
hicle owners. One of them is q
house bill, introduced by Hon. J. H.
Miner, of Dodge county, and the
other is a Senate bill introduced by
Senators Pace and ellis.
The house, or Miner bill, re-
quires all owners of cars by the
first of January 1925, to file proof
of title with the Secretary of State,
and the latter officer is required to
furnish a certificate of title, and for
this the owner is to pay $1.00. The
Secretary of State is required to
make certain records and publish
certain information as to stolen cars
which is to be sent to each state in
the Union. The passage of this
bill, it is estimated, would cost the
vehicle owners, about 100000.
Inc Pace-GllllS Dill IN The Senate
requires that, on and after January
l, 1925, every application made for
an auto tag, which application the
ownership of the cars is stated,
must be supported by affidavit at
tested by an official authorized by
law to administer an oath.
The Secretary of state, under
this bill, is required to furnish each
person registering a car on duly
authenticated application to issue to
such prima facie owner a card Of
identification which the owner Of
the car is required to carry will
him, but no charge is made for the
issuance of this Identification card.

boldly with the all powerful modern
