PREDICT LAST
MINUTE RUSH

OLYMPIA-worst rush in the
states history in issuing licenses
was predicted today by License
Director Dave s. Coin, as result
Of the slowness of Washington mo-
florists in getting their new 1899
Al drivers Licenses.
Only 1870 out Of the nearly 700
900 drivers in the state have Sc
cured new licenses and the dead
line is August 1. They were put
on sale June /. but only a small
fraction of the drivers have APP
piled as yet.
Cohn advised motorists TO 10 TO
the nearest state patrol office or
their county auditor, turn over
their present green licenses and
pay their 81 for new one. Per-
sons with pink drivers licenses
have to pass the state patrol 8
compulsory examinations before
they can secure their new ones.
More than 100000 of the states
motorists have not passed the
driving exams yet. Cohn estimated.
