Avery, sup erintendent o f industries at Au burn Prison, where the plates'for New York’s 3,000,000 automobiles are made. Instead of new plates in 1943,. Avery said, motorists will be sup plied only with a small’ metal strip labeled “N. Y. 1943” to slip on across the current plate where “N. Y. 1942” appears. Ordinarily Auburn Prison buys 2,000 tons of steel for auto plates, but the little band to be provided next year will require only 200 tons of steel, Avery said. Work on the 1943 discs will be started with in two weeks, he added. ‘ _ .
