H. Connell, acting secretary of ways, today to ask motorists to send in at once the forms which adoption of the present form system has hoped to entirely obviate the last minute rush which in former years swamped a greatly increased working personnel. Connell urged car owners to send in their applications even though they are contemplating a trade-in on their cars before December 16. The department will transfer the 1927 tags to the new vehicle without any fee charge. If an adjustment in the re- istratios fee la necessary because of a difference in the car.
