Pettingill of Wilmington, Del., addresses the Soldier Field assembly. The comâ€" mittee is confident that, at a time when the nation is in battle with the Land of the Rising Sun, multitudes of Christians will turn out to worship the Risen Son. Huge letters, 14 feet high and 10 feet wide, will again proâ€" claim that "Christ Is Risen." Hold Easter Sunrise Services Renewal blanks are now available and to date approximately 700,000 drivers have sent in their applications. However, the department stressed the fact that current licenses are valid until the expiration date and none of the renewed licenses will be mailed out to drivers until the deadline. The renewal blanks were issued Jan. 28 in order that the great volume of work necessitated by reâ€"licensing more than 3,000,000 drivers might be expedited. Each application must be checked carefully, validated, given a code number, and photostated before the identifying card may be returned to the licensee. Drivers Licenses Expire May 1 The state automobile department issued a statement today reminding drivers that their current operators‘ licenses expire May 1. Renewals are to be made on that date to be in effect until May 1, 1945. At Soldier‘s Field For the week of April 6th the maâ€" terial gathered will be sold by the City and proceeds will go to defray the expenses of Civilian Defense here at home, the committee announced. Many people, said Mr. Swanson, have objected to a new tax for civilian deâ€" fense. But the expenses must be met. We need two new sirens and they will cost about $200.00 each. We need stationery and postage. These needs and other legitimate expenses will be met if every resident will coâ€"operate and scour their basement, attic and The department requested that apâ€" plicants exercise care in filling out their blanks. Of those regeived to date the incidence of crror has run to eight percent. This necessitates inâ€" creased work in the department and slows down the flow of reâ€"registraâ€" tions.
