Washington ushers in the new year
in accordance with a social custom
which is distinctly local: ;. Ettqietce
in the nations capital differs an many
respects from social fufes in vogue
in other cities, because Washington is
essentially the Worlds Capital. New
Years day is set aside as open
house" for all groups of officialdom
from the President and diplomats
down the line in social precedence to
the less conspicuous office holder.
The requirements of the social order
are such that society must adopt a
schedule for the day which permits
visits, the leaving of cards and then
be at home to receive courtesy calls.
Aside from being in accordance with
the code it is something in the nature
of neighborly calls in other vicinities.

succeeded in wrecking the executive
offices of the White House and has

GET CORRECT TAGS
FOR YOUR OLD BUS

When buying your new 1880 auto
licenses, see that you get the right
kind of plates, a highway bulletin
suggests. The motor vehicle registrar
can give you the right kind of plates
only if you give full and correct in
formation in your application. Fail
ure to do this may cause you trouble
and expense later.
A truck is defined by law as amy
motor vehicle designed or used prin-
cipally for carrying things other than
passengers, and includes a motor We
hicle to which has been added a
cabinet box, platform, rack or other
equipment for the purpose of carry
ing merchandise other than the per-
sonal effects of the passenger"
Convertible cars with a removable
or collapsible truck body should have
truck licenses. Cars which have been
made over into trucks should have
truck licenses, even if they had pas
senger car licenses in 1929. In some
cases the passenger car and truck tax
is the same, in some cases the truck
tax is slightly higher.
"T'' licenses may be used only on
trucks used for hauling farm products
from the place of production to the
place of shipment, sale or consump-
ton. A farmer who owns "T" truck
may haul supplies needed on his farm,
on the return trip. Draymen hauling
for hire may use 'T'' trucks in haul
ing farm products from farm to mar
ket. but cannot haul return loads, or
haul merchandise anywhere. "T''
trucks cannot be used in hauling man.
