TOURIST CARS ARE
GETTING NUMEROUS
Influx of Visitors Begins in
Minnesota; BabcOck Urges Aid
in Seeing That Laws Are Not
Violated.

Tourist cars are again numerous
on the highways for while cars with
foreign licenses are seen the year
around, the real touring season starts
in June. Settled weather, closing of
the schools, opening of the fishing
season, and dependable roads, all help
to start the annual trek. This year
it seems to have started earlier than
year ago, and almost every day cars
from six or eight states come through
Pine county.
Throughout Minnesota there is a
desire to extend fair and courteous
treatment to the visitors who come
from all parts of America. But ac-
cording to c. M. Babcock, commits
sioner of highways, this policy of be-
ing courteous to visitors has made it
possible for some people to evade the
motor vehicle laws. While the great
majority of cars with licenses from
other states carry bona fide visitors,
there are some among them that are
not entitled to this privilege. Among
these are:
Minnesota residents VINO spent
the winter in other states, bought
licenses there and neglected to
get Minnesota licenses when they
got home.
Minnesota residents who have
bought used cars licensed in other
states, and failed to register them
in Minnesota.
People who have come into Min
nesota to take up permanent res
idence, but who have failed to
register their cars here.
Visitors who have remained
longer than the time allowed by
law without paying the tax. Wis
itors may use their cars in the
state ninety days without paying
the tax, provided they get Wis
itor's permit within ten days af-
ter arrival.
"Other violations of the automobile
license law are usually apparent, but
no one can tell by looks whether a
car with a foreign license carries
bona fide visitors or not" Mr.. Bah
cock points out. eve do not want to
be discourteous to visitors, and auto
license inspectors cannot tag cars

ers, unless they have definite informa-
ton that the law is being violated.
1--WE must therefore depend on the
cooperation of public spirited citi-
zens to see that abuses of the Wis
itor's exemption law are stopped. Any
person having definite information
about a car with a foreign license
whose owner is not entitled to this
privilege, should report the facts
either to the police or to this depart
ment. This is not only an act of fair
ness to those who have paid their
just auto tax, but persons making
such reports will be doing themselves
favor, for they will increase the
fund available for highway improve
ments. Any increase in funds will
hasten the time when more improve
ments can be made on the trunk high
ways in Pine county"
