72,451 LICENSES
GIVEN OWNERS
Less Than Usual Total of Reg
istered Vehicles; Affect
ed by RatiOning
OPERATORS INCREASE

A total of 72,451 motor vehicles
is registered in the State, accord
ing to the records of the Motor We
hicle Department at Dover. While
slightly less than the usual total OF
registered vehicles, department Of
ficials explain that some reduction
was expected due to the rationing
program. Under the permanent
registration system now in effect
here, there are some registrations
expiring at the end of each quarter
throughout the year instead of all
of them expiring on March 81, as
was the case under the previous
system.
Quarterly Registration
The records reveal that under
this system of having the registra-
lions expire at the end of a quarter
the periods ending March 81 and
Sept. 80 have the largest number
of expirations, while the periods
ending June 80 and December 81
have only a small number of ex-
pirations. The number of registra-
ton expirations at the end of each
quarter throughout the year are a.
follows: March 81, 33,071; June 80
1927; Sept. 80, 31,376; Dec. 81, 81
TIT. The records of the department
also disclose that the effects of the
rationing program did not reduce
the number of licensed motor We
hicle operators since there is an in
crease of 1907 for this year over
last year. The total number of IL
censed operators for this year is
92,621 while the number issued in
1941 was 85,114.
