Monday First Day
For New Auto Tags

Union County's motorists will
Monday b gin their annual
standing in line" act as sale of
1948 license plates begins. The
tags may be used as soon as they
are purchased, and must be dis
played after midnight, March 81.
Mrs. Marguerite S Ia ar er,
Marysville deputy registrar, to-
day warned that all automobile
owners must apply in person for
their own plates. No other mem
Der of a persons family may OBJ
tain the license for him, because
the owners own signature must
appear on the application form.
''It is against the law for some
one else to sign the application
for the car owned, a m d it is
equally against the law for a
deputy registrar to permit such
wrongful signature" Mrs. Shear
er said. A deputy registrar in
Cleveland is even now facing a
prison sentence for permitting a
mans wife to obtain tags for his
car, the wife signing her huS-
bands name to the application.
