HOLM EXPLAINS MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION Secretary of State Has Issued General Information to Be Used By Police Owing to the fact that many in-| quiries have been received at the cffice of Secretary of State at St. Paul concerning the motor vehicle, registration law that department has issued some general information (o] be used by police officers in connee-| tion with the enforcement of the law. The special points to which at- tention is directed are as follows: | Under the law it is a misdemeanor: To operate a motor vehicle not| preperly taxed and registered; | To use any numbtr plate or regis-| tration certificate in connection with any vehicle except the one for which | the same was issued; i To fail to surrender number plates | and registration certificate as pro-| vided by law when the right to use them expires; To delay or neglect to register and pay the tax with intent to ecsape pay- ing the tax,'is 2 gross misdemeanor. The 1921 registration is now com- pleted except for cubrent applica- tions, and they are handled without| delay when preperly made out and accompanied by proper dealers’ re- ports, This department has no police powrs but the local authorities are charged with the duty of enforce- ment. Ample time has now been giv- en toall"to comply with requireinents and it is only fair to those who have paid their just share of the taxes that all should be required to do their part. “A” and “B’’ number plates are designed for automobiles, busses and hearses. “A’” signifies that the min- imum $12 has been paid. “B” indi- cates a higher tax. “T” and “X” are designed for trucks. “T” indi-| cates that the minimum‘'of $15 has been paid. All vehicles designed to canry other things than passengers are classed as trucks and are taxed at least $15. Roadsters made over with boxes or tonnmeau carry-alls added are in this class and cannot be law-} fully operated with'an “A’” or “B” number plate. Trailers except those wejghing less than 1,000 pounds used on occasional trips are also re- quired to be registered pnd are mark- ed with “Z” plates. Dealers’ plates are to be used only by dealers when good faith demon- strating to prospective purchasers. Dealers’ service cars are hot per- mitted to be opeated with dealers’ plates. i BOARD WILL CONTROL HIGH ‘SCHOOL SPORTS High | AthJetics of jthe Bemidji QUIET IS RESTORED IN BELFAST TODAY (By United Press) Belfast, - Ireland, Sept. 2.— Quiet has been restored here to- day.” The total casualties re- ported were 17 killed and 200 wounded.
