VEHICLE BILL
NOW IN SENATE
Proposed Changes i'm Auto
Department Are Explained
by c. j. KillOran
MODERN AUTO TAGS

Features of President Pro Tenn
Harold w. T. Purnells bill propos-
ing numerous changes in the oper-
alton of the State Motor Vehicle
Department were outlined in the
Senate by Chief Deputy Atty.-Gen
Clair ]. Killoran. The measure
drafted in the attorney-general's
Office, would provide for a system
of permanent license tags to follow
an automobile throughout its life
and would establish permanent
licensing and inspection bureau in
each county. In addition, it would
provide for the staggering of reg
istrations and inspections over the
entire year, with certain registra-
tons and inspections expiring at
the end of each calendar quarter.
Mr.. Killoran said that he was
speaking neither in behalf of or
against the bill, but was merely
explaining its contents. He de-
clared that it is intended to pro-
vide greater economy and efficiency
in the department and greater
degree of safety on streets and
highways. He also pointed out
that it would provide for more
accurate check in connection with
titling.
Permanent License Plates
Permanent durable license plates,
with different colored sections for
each quarter, would be issued, Mr..
Killoran said. Following the talk,
former Senator Louis A. Drexler of
Camden was given the privilege of
the floor on motion of Senator Ben
jamin F. Simmons. He said that
he did not think any action should
be taken on the measure until the
public has had an opportunity to
digest its contents. urging that
Delaware continue to function as
closely as possible to the principle
of the uniform motor vehicle laws.
Expressing the belief that police

SUNDAY, MARCH IND

The Asbury Methodist Church of
Smyrna will participate in the
Methodist Emergency Million cru
sade in a nationwide attempt to
raise one million dollars to meet
three war-caused appeals. The Of
fering plates of the 43,194 Meth
odist congregations in the United
States will be simultaneously pass
ed on what has been named Meth
odism's Day of Compassion" Sun
day, March 2 The three types of
appeal that are consolidated in this
Good Samaritan movement are:
(1) $250,000 is to be allotted to the
religious and social well-being of
young men in army camps and
navy yards. Methodist chaplains
within these camps will be aided
with literature and equipment as
needed from the fund. Churches
nearby will be helped to meet their
enlarged responsibilities in minis
tering attractively to unusual num-
bers of youth during the critical
hours of leave" In some cases
this fund will provide general
Methodism's share in creating in
terdenominational social and relig-
ious centers to sustain and build
character. (2) $250,000 will be de-
voted to assist the mother church
In England in temporarily easing
some of the frightful situations in
volved in $50 bombed churches.
Also, in the South and East of
England there are parishes SO
dangerously located that almost
the entire congregations have evac-
uated. leaving quite unprovided for
the pastors who are staying to
minister to those who remain.
Other urgent needs grow out of the
necessity of rescuing certain Brit
ish Methodist missionary personnel
and projects which are in jeopardy.
81 S50O,OOO will continue and sup
plement the Methodist overseas re-
lief now in progress; feeding,
clothing and sheltering non-com-
Blatant war victims. Since war
conditions make added demands on
all regular missionary and philan-
thropic funds both the national and
local leaders of this campaign en-
phasize that this is an emergency
offering and must not be allowed to
block the flow of giving to the reg
ular world service activities of the
church or the result will be the
creation of new and equally serious
problems. The national movement
is being led by Bishop Edwin H.
Hughes, retired, of Washington, d.
c., who is supported by the Meth
odist Emergency Commission, COM
posed of all the bishops and rep
resentative number of prominent
Methodist laymen and ministers
from all the six Jurisdictions of

executive secretary and DR.. Elmer

New Investment for Glacier
Farmers Proposed by Loan Bank

Glacier county farmers who
have Federal Bank loans not only
can protect their future. but
make a profitable investment by
paying in to a new future pay.
ment fund plan inaugurated by
the bank. E. P. Patten, Conrad
secretary-treasurer of the Ma.
tional Farm Loan Association
serving Glacier county, announced
this week. In addition. Patten
said, such funds will make a real
contribution to national defense.
Such future payment funds
are deposits against future loan
installments and interest, Patten
said. they are designed specif-
ically to protect the farmer
against future loan years. Such
funds will not be applied on the
loan until the farmer so instructs
the land bank. usless by some
mischance he is unable to make
his regular payments. in which
case the deposits would be applied
automatically.
Future payment funds will
draw interest at the same rate
the farmer pays on his mortgage
loan, Patten explained.
"a future payment fund Great
ed by farmers under this plan
will increase the amount avail
able for the Federal Land Bank
to invest in government seeuri-
ties" Patten pointed out. That
means that while the farmer is
protecting his farm and home
for the future, and while his In
vestment is earning good rate
of interest. his money at. the
same time will be doing service
for national defense through re-
investment by the land bank
