"1 do not believe anybody ran make a prediction regarding the coming election about which ha can have any- real confidence." stated Sir Charles. "That is for two reasons. -For the first time there will be aa entirely new factor In the women of il who have never voted before.

How far they will be interested and bow far they will record their totes will affect the party voting."

But It does not help any. It simply means the losers cannot got renewals for this, year until they recover the lost licenses or send to Toronto tor duplicate from th Motor Vehicle Branch ot the Department of Ulghwhys. The latter means the tilling out of a special form and sending It, together with (0 cents, to Toronto, and -there Is, of course, the. dolsy la getting the duplicate. Issuers are forbidden to Issue new permits to operators until tbe old ones bsve been turned In.

If there Is an Idea that by losing th old permits any convictions for offences against ths traffic acts will be lost sight of. It Is a wrong one, according to Mr. Csrrnthers. All convictions are reported to Toronto, so thst any duplicates of the old license obtained, still have the records of convictions on the backs of them. Furthermore, la filling out the applications for duplicates, a apace la required to be filled In on each giving particulars of eonvlcllona registered on the original permits.

A floe ot 100 is the penslty for wrong Informstlon on the application tor duplicates.
