Registration for
Trailers Explained

SACRAMENTO, April 27.-When
vacation time starts Mr.. and Mrs.
Californian usually find themselves
in quandary about operation OF
the vehicle which is designed for
towing behind the family automo-
bile.
If the trailer has been previously
registered in California all that is
necessary is re-registration for the
current year. To accomplish this,
says department of motor vehicles,
the registration card tax cleared for
the former year and 1886 must be
presented, together with an affi-
davit of incorporation up to and in
Guiding the day of 1886 registration.
If the trailer weighs less than 5000
pounds unladen, the registration fee
will be So and full years vehicle
license fee will be charged in accord
ance with the value of the carrier.
In the case of the homemade
trailer never before registered, the
vehicle must be weighed by a GER
tifid weighmaSter and driven to &
istration office or a highway patro
office for inspection, warns E. Ray
mond Cato, chief of California High
way Patrol In addition to weigh
certificate. the department will re
quire a statement of fact concern
ing registration of the parts uset
in the vehicle construction. Receipt
for material are acceptable. On reg
istration of the trailer, a depart
ment of motor vehicles number vii
be assigned to identify the carrie
Turing its operation. Registration
cost is SO, plus a vehicle license fe
assessed at the rate of valuation
and prorated for the period Of tn
year during which it is registered.
Attention to the above details
says Cato, will prevent cmbarraSs
ment of owners by being stopped o
the highway for investigation {
