Show Sticker Plus Old Plates For 1943 Because of the tremendous war requirements it seems improbable that steel will be available for 1943 auto license plates and for that reason it may mean the 1942 plates will be reassigned and used with the special windshield sticker. This was the substance of the announcement announce-ment by J. L. Baldterston, commissioner commis-sioner of the department of law enforcement. The decal windshield sticker,, carrying the same number as that P on the steel plate will be used by the motorist in 1943. Some of the advantages of the suggested stick- er-license enumerated by Commissioner Commis-sioner Balderston will be the reduced re-duced cost of the stickers as compared com-pared to the steel plates and also the savings of thousands of dollars in the cost of mailing. Other advantages ad-vantages of decal stickers are: 1. Law Enforcement officers can immediately detect cars and trucks illegally used, as the windshield wind-shield numbers must 'correspond to the metal plates. Also acts as a deterrent to theft of plates. '' 2. The lack of the certificate sticker indicates the vehicle is operating op-erating without the payment of the tax. Also prevents the switching of plates in the case, of the theft of the car. 3. By duplication in eaCh case the exact number will be the same as on the present metal plate. The owner's record will not be changed or the system disorganized. The stickers will be practically impossible impos-sible to counterfeit. |
