Failure of motorists to fill out cor- rectly applications for renewal of thelr driving permits is causing undue | delay in the issuance of the cards as well as unjust criticism of the Trafic Bureau, Traffic Director M. O. Eld- ridge said today. The most common practice of the applicants, he ex- plained, is their failure to put the| number of their old permit in the| space provided for that purpose on| the application blank. Mr. Eldridge has received scores of letters from applicants who have not received the new permits, although their applications were fil vo and three weeks ago. Such criticism is unjustified, he declared, in view of the fact that the delay is due entirely to the applicant. One criticism received today from an_employe of the Bureau of Stand- ards aroused the fre of Mr. Eldridge to such an extent that he wrote to| George K. Burgess, director of the| bureau, asking him to reprimand | that employe. The critic said that he| |applied for his permit three weeks | |ago, and had not heard from it.| “Would it not be a good idea to at-| tend to the business you already have {before going to so much trouble to' | ballyhoo up some more?” he wrote. “Any person who will write a let ter like this,” Mr. Eldridge told Di- rector Burgess, “has a screw loose somewhere, and I hope. therefor that you will have the matter i vestigated and see that he is properly reprimanded for undue and unfair criticism of another hranch the Governme | The last manganese mine to operate ! fa Porto Rico recently shut down.
