AUTO STAMPS CHECKED
Internal Revenue Men Check We
hicles; Serial Numbers

Special attention has been focused
on the necessity of car and truck
owners displaying the Federal
Auto Use Stamp on their vehicle,
as required by law, by the tagging
of those vehicles without stamps
all over Delaware by Zone Deputy
Collectors operating out of the of
flee of the Collector of Internal
Revenue for Delaware, Whining
ton While there are penalties in
Guiding a $500 fine for failure to
conspicuously display the stamp,
which may be imposed at any time
by the Collector of Internal Rev.
enue, the tagging of the cars so
far have given the car owner the
privilege of purchasing the stamp
without penalty. 1t is advisable to
those people who have not pur-
chased a stamp to do so at once
before penalties may be applied.
Serial Number
Each of these stamps has a SER
ial number which should be copied
by the purchaser. In case of loss,
or theft, the purchaser who has
the serial number of the stamp
purchased, will be given a certif-
icate in lieu of the stamp upon ap-
plication of same to the Collector
of Internal Revenue, Wilmington.
The law will be enforced rigidly
throughout the year.
