The Automobile Registration Law

There appears 10 be a direct conflict Of opinion be
tween the authorities Of several Texas counties and the
state highway department relative to the motor vehicle
registration Law. Announcement has been made in
several counties. principally Dallas, to the effect there
would be no complaints filed against motor vehicle
owners who failed 70 pay their license fee prior to Feb
ruary /. The state highway department counters with
the assertion that any motor vehicle now operating IN
Teas highways without a 1923 license plate j. violating
the Law. Inasmuch as Ia. Law provides that automobile
license fees must be paid prior to January l Of eaci
year, it would appear that the state highway depart
ment has the better OF the argument.
Representative HornGdsy Of Cameron county will
introduce in the legislature a bill reducing the motor
vehicle license fee so per cent, and providing that such
fee shall become due on July / Of each year. There
may be some controversy with respect to the sdvisa-
bility of reducing the license fee. but there could be
no objection possible 70 setting the payment date =?
to July 1.
Under the present law the motor vehicle owner =
caught between two financial mills,ones which exert
terrific pressure upon the average pocketbook-Christ-
mas and the regular t~ax-psying period. The individual
who is FLUSH" with surplus coin Of the realm imme-
diately after Christmas is fortunate If he is not con-
sidered by his ~neighbors as a suspicious character. II
he has a surplus he is expected to utilize it to meet
the county. state. school. city. district and various
other taxes whiel are due before February /. In fact.
there is no time Of the year when it is more difficult
for the average taxpayer to pay extra taxes or license
fees than from December IS to March ].
Setting the date for payment Of motor vehicle
license fees up to July /, may cause some slight ineon-
venience in rearrsnging highway programs. but that
would be more than offset by the great convenience =
motor vehicle owners. Also there would not he 50 great
protest against the amount of the license fee il IL were
made payable at a time when the average individual IS
not SO seriously embarrassed financially.

Compulsory Insurance

The compulsory automobile insurance lax, passed
BY the Massachusetts, legislature two years ago, is ex-
pected to result in legislation Of a drastic character
during tn ep.esent session. Safety on the highways,
which directly affects the revenues Of that state. A.
regarded as very essential, especially 60 in view OF the
fact that thus far the compulsory insurance law has
proved more Of a liability than an asset.
Governor Fuller, in addressing the legislature, called
attention to the necessity of amending existing laws
dealing Wit hthe problem Of the automobile, and need
Of an adequate appropriation to allow the state insur-
anee department to compile its own data on which 70
base compulsory liability rates.
Outstanding in the recommendation of the incom-
ing executive was a plea for enactment Of legislation
disbarring permanently from the obtaining Of a lieens,
10 operate a motor vehicle any driver involved in a
fatal accident while under the influence Of liquor. lie
also urged that any driver involved in a serious acct
dent in which he was at fault should have his license
revoked for a definite and substantial length OF time.
As another move toward greater highway safety the
Massachusetts, executive recommended that periodic
inspection u automobile safety devices be required by
statute and that examination for drivers license be
more drastic in character, with an added provision taat
suceessfuI applicants at a first test be required to take
another examinationto ascertain II they we're still IN
a III condition. to drive safely.
II may be that the legislation proposed by the Mas
Yachus-tts II designed to conserve he liability insur-
snce revenues, but II must he conceded that sHch meas
rres would also minimize the number Of accidents on
highways. In fact, every state, regardless OF whether
il eontemplatcs compulsory insurance, could enact mo
law the recommendations Of the Massachusetts execd-
tive with the assurance that such measures would
eliminate 20 a great extent the numerous highway ae-
cidents and their appalling death tell.

The World and All

By Charles r. Driseoll

| call on my regular readers to witness that I've
always spoken very highly Of the Swedes.
Fer years and years ever since ! went to Minnesota
to work on a newspaper, I have looked upon Scandina-
visns as among the very best Of the Americans.
But now ! want TO go to Sweden.
I've been reading a new book by Bruce Reynolds.
the globe-trotter. It's called "Sweeties in Sweden
and is published by Sully. New York.
Reynolds wrote a book called Cocktail Cont
nentale." and another called Paris With the Lid Lift.
cd" In both h told about the great drinking bouts Of
Paris, and you'd think, to read him, that Reynolds was
the biggest drunkard on two continents ard a larg.
group Of islands. ! happen to know that he doesn't
drink a drop. and / doubt that he ever did. He came
from Louisville. Ky.
Reynolds has been travelling all over the world dur
ins the last two years. He's been having a good time
and / suspect he will get at least a dozen books out OF
his travels.
This one about Sweden Is. without doubt. the live
lest thing that's been done concerning that very digni-
flied country.
Two commodities impressed Reynolds in Sweden
food and girls.
II was wine and women in Paris. Food and girls IL
Sweden. All the difference in the world, il you read
carefully.

the best-fed people in the known world. They know

Improvement has been made in production and pack;

that quality is not the only factor in selling fruit. APP
