FINALLY LEGALIZED

After years of struggling and kicking around by one party or another, the practice of postponing the automobile license plate deadline to March 1, at last has been legalized. Gov. Henry F. Schricker has signed the measure, making it effective immediately for the extension of the dead-line until March 1. The act was passed last week and early this week by both houses of the Indiana legis-

lature.

In addition to making March 1 the deadline for the use of the previous year’s auto registration and license plates, the new law makes it a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of $10 to *50. to use the old license plates after obtaining the plates for the current year, regardless of when the new plates are obtained.
