Virginia Auto Togs
Procedure Held in
( Conflict With Law

A procedure suggested by the
Virginia Division of Motor Vehi-

lis in conflict with State law. Ar
|lington Commemorative Attorney
William j. Hassan said yesterday
Tag applications mailed by the
division say that payment for the
1852 tag may be made to the
Richmond Office of the division
and that the 1851 registration
card must be presented with the
payment.
Mr.. Hassan said this provision
lis in conflict with the State code
which requires that the current
registration card must be carried
lin the vehicle at all times.
Motorists who are stopped by
police and are unable to present
a registration card because it has
been mailed to Richmond will not
be arrested, Mr.. HasSan said, il
they can present a registered mail
receipt as evidence they have used
the card in applying for a new
tag.
The Commemorative Attorney
added that it is not necessary tc
send to Richmond for the tag

lin New Montgomery
Voter Registration
By Alex R. Preston

New voters are registering in
Montgomery County in record
numbers and are signifying Re-
publican views at better than 6 to
S over the Democrats.
Although the total registration
gives the Democrats a sizeable
majority-for the record-election
officials expressed amazement at
both the volume and, for the first
time. the trend which places the
Republicans in the lead in new
voters.
I've been here IL years and
I've never seen anything like it.
said Miss Rose K. Dawson. chief
clerk to the Board of Election
Supervisors.
Ward Caddington of the board
also said it was the first time he
knows of that Republicans have
outnumbered the Democrats.

A total of 12,181 have registered
since January 7-6,183 Republi-
cans, 1898 Democrats and 1,001

ltion.
At the beginning Of the year,
the county had 55,274 registered
voters, including 25,8i2 Democrats.
6,784 Republicans Z. $50 who de-
Iclined and 10 with miscellaneous
affiliations.
A number Of those registering
are young voters who will be 81
years old on or before the Novem-
ber 4 general election date. But,
Mr.. Caddington says, most of
them are persons who either have
moved into the county within the
last year or who, for the first
time, are taking an interest in
elections.
In addition to voting for Pres
ident this year, Marylanders will
