The Automobile Bureau Is taken out of the secretary of state's office on July 1, and becomes a part of the new Tax Commission. The bill just introduced embodies a number of important changes In which automobilists will he interested. It provides that county clerks shall distribute thc automobile plates, re ceiving 10 cents per set for their worlt 'It Is believed this plan w ill not only result in a considerable saving- to tbe stato through the closing or combin ing of certain branches, b u t that it will go far toward ■ doing away -with thc congestion and delayed delivery of plates which it is now impossible to avoid. Thc measure further provides that tho automobile year shall begin on January 1, instead of February 1 and furthermore that all chauffeurs will take out thoir renewals on July 1, rather than at the same time as mo torists, another scheme working to ward the elimination of congestion. Thc Stnte Prison Department is now installirig additional equipment at Auburn Prison, preparatory to turning out tlie first of the 1022 platen. Delivery of these plates is called for not Inter than November 1, the date when the new commission expects to begin giving out plates, early applica tion being urged, the whole dovetail ing in a general plan to speed up de livery and do away as far as possible with congestion and confusion. Completion of tho entire plate con tract of approximately S50.000 sets, will call for a daily output at Auburn Prison of about 0,000 sets. Next year’s plates will be found particularly at tractive, being a bright green with white numerals nnd Identical with those being used iu Oregon this year. Perry Williams Out Again.
