Emmerson brands as false the excuse being made in some quarters to the effect that the automobile depart8\ent is behind in sending out plates. "The truth of the matter is," Secretary Emmerson says, "that orders for plates have never been filled so promptly as they have been this year. The automObile department is right up to the minute in making out licenses and shipping plates. "If an automobilist has no 1924 plates, it is because he has not applied for them or because he has applied so recently that there has not been time for mail to come to Springfield and return." The automobile department, Mr. Emmerson pointed out, has issued 120,000 more licenses during the first sixty days of this year than were issued during the eame period last year. Up to March 1, thia year, 670,~ licenses. were iss'!ed as compared wath · 550,000 assued dunng the same period in 1923. 1 ~ i!! ~ prccedin Ea-,ter .
