one-third of the record breaking
s5,000,000,O00 worth of munitions

Although aircraft. with its related
ordnance, showed the greatest dol

numbers of planes produced was not
revealed. but it was apparent that
the 1000 mark once predicted for
April had not been attained.

FEW ARRESTS FOR
FAILURE TO POSSESS
VEHICLE LICENSES

Fred Eberhardt, who represents
IN Key West Florida's motor We
hicle commissioner, said today
that only in three instances, thus
far, has he been forced to arrest
motorists for not purchasing cur
rent automobile licenses.
In every case, Mr. Eberhardt
added, where he has given cita-
tons to motorists to obtain hcen-
ses, the tags were bought, with
three exceptions. In one of those
cases, the defendant was fined
S25, and each of the other two
men was held under bail of S25.
Up to today more than $500
licenses of all kinds have been
sold in Monroe county, where the
record of sales, on a proportionate
basis, is as good as that in any
other county in the state and bet
ter than that in most of the coun-
ties.
