The War Production Board has
relaxed its order against production
Of motor vehicle license plates to
permit States to manufacture one
1874 plate for each vehicle, instead
of the customary two.
The order permits States to use
metal on hand, or sheet and strip
steel not heavier than % gauge and
listed as idle or excess inventory
with the Steel Recovery Corp. Spe-
cific authorization must be obtained
from WPB to purchase the steel,
yesterdays announcement said.
To conserve steel, WPB in March,
1912, issued an order permitting only
the manufacture of small date tabs
and requirements for lost or dam
aged plates and at that time in
tended to continue the plan for the
duration OF the war
Many States have recently re-
ported, however, that license plates
are becoming illegible and must be
replaced. WPB said replating OF the
old plates would involve a loss of
time and waste of materials out OF
proportion to the saving of metal.
The new license plates will be
limited to the maximum size of the
1912 plates issued by the States.
