Montana motor vehicles have in
creased more than 5000 during 1926
as compared with 1925, according te
records of Austin B. Middleton, mo-
tor vehicle registrar at Deer Lodge
penitentiary. The number of licenses
issued by the bureau last year totalled
96,051, while to date 106,383 licenses
have been issued--a net gain of g.
1872, or more than 10 per cent.
According to Assistant Registrar S.
C. Small, from the time the bureau
was located in Deer Lodge until the
close of the fiscal year June 30, 1926,
seven months, collections amounted
to $1,029,382, Of which there was re-
turned to the counties for road pur-
poses $989,595.
The registrars books show that
there are now in Montana 1888 regis
tered passenger automobiles on which
fees for license aggregated $751;, 1915.
There are 1910 trucks, on which the
license amounted to $143,730. Motor
cycles number 1872, decrease of 60
from last year. The number Of chauff-
eurs, licenses also is less, 1884 as
against Ais last year. The number of
motor vehicle dealers, however. has
increased from 415 to 447.
Despite the greater volume of bus
mess, the administrative expense for
1925 was only 2.8 of collections. This
figure included the cost of furniture
and fixtures installed when the de-
partment was moved to Deer Lodge,
bonds, salaries, freight, plates, print
ing postage, and all other incidentals.
Prison labor in administration of the
bureau, the records Indicate, has de-
creased operating costs 81 per cent per
pair of plates in the first year. This
year the cost per set was 24.45. Last
year it was 1875. This cost included
not only the manufacturers charge
plates were in the hands Of the auto
owner.
Continued proportionately increases
in the volume of work indicate to
Warden Middleton that additional
quarters soon will be necessary. Vir-
tually all the available space is used
by clerks receiving, sorting and filing
license applications and in filing the
orders. Five typewriters are kept
busy.
The work of mailing notices to car
owners who held 1926 licenses has just
been completed and applications are
being receivd 1T rate Of approxi-
mateiy 80 day. Approximately 1000
new licenses already have been ship-

SURPLUS CASH
LIKELY THING.
STEEN STATES
Some State Departments May
Get Through Biennium
With Money to Spare

Although some state departments
were hard pressed to get through
the last biennium with the money
appropriated for them by the 1925
legislature, indications are that
others will return some money to
the state general fund, according to
State Auditor John Steen.
How much will prove to have been
surplus Steen has no way of know
ing until the bills incurred during
June come in and are paid. In some
cases, he said. certain departments
will doubtless be found to have made
an effort to use up all Of their ap-
preparation for the last biennium on
legitimate needs which might other
wise have to be paid for out of the
appropriation for the current bien-
mum.
One effort to use up the old APP
preparation has met with failure,
however. In that case, Steen said.
q department with several railroad
mileage books on. hand requested au-
thority to use an unexpended balance
in q travel fund for the purchase Of
more mileage books.
Steen not only refused the re-
quest but demanded that the unused
mileage books be converted into cash
and the money turned back to the
treasury. His contention is that each
= biennium should stand on its own
financial feet and that each depart
ment should get along with the
money appropriated for its use dur
ing the period.

"When citizens realize they may
reduce the cost Of crime and in
sanity by coordinating the work Of

The Foundation now has "coun-
