Br the Associated Press. RICHMOND. Va., September 4.— Reason for delay in many automobile owners of Virginia receiving their licenses is explained in a statement issued here today by Motor Vehicle Commissioner Hayes. “On July 1" the statement says, “there became effective in Virginia a new automobile title law, requiring a certificate as to the pauyment of poll tax before a license could be issued. “The new law also required the mo- tor vehicle com joner to mail to each owner an application blank for retitling his car, allowing the com- miissioner nin in which to do this. Within days after this law went into effect the office of the commissioner had addressed and had in the mail letters to the entire list of owners of cars, with full instruc- tions as to securing a new title. “Since carly in July mail reaching EVENING _ STAR, WASHINGTON, the Motor Vehicle department has registered moré than 15,000 pleces each day. At ope time the depart- ment had as many as 60,000 unopened pieces of mail on hand, notwith- standing a force of fifteen clerks had been detailed to do nothing but open and_assort those communications. “Theré has been some criticism from owners who failed to get their license within & few days after they had mailed in their applications. To meet the situation, says Commission- er Hayes. his department has been doing “everything humanly possible, having actually doubled its working force. Fully four-fifths of the applica- tions arrived without a certificate as to the poll tax, Commissioner Hayes s4¥s. Many of the requests came in without an application for certificate;| of title, cations, The return of these of course, appli- occasioned some y. “Much of the trouble, he de- clares, has been due to the fact that dealers did not, or would not, comply with the new title law by having their cars titled before sclling. This necessarily delayed the owner in get- ting his car titled and licensed. “It is hoped the worse of the rush and delay is now behind the depart- ment, and with the co-operation of the public, the commissioner expects QUITS MARYLAND POST.

NORFOLK, Va., September 4.— Forty-five passengers on train Ko. 4 of the Southern Railway, en route from Danville to Norfolk, escaped unhurt yesterday through a freak of good fortune when the engine and four coaches of that train were de- railed near Union Level and the coaches turned partly over. That none was killed or injured was due to the fact that the wreck occurred in a cut and the side em- bankment prevented the cars from turning completely over. The accident was said to have been due to a defective rail. We Have the Choicest Homes in Chevy Chase R, THOMAS & CO. Main 8416 Sanitary 13-0z.
