ress cM 5, SAI $1,300,000 FROM AUYO LICENSES, Amount Derived from That Seurce Three Times Greater Than in 19179, The amount of money received by the state from the registration and li- censing of automobiles and drivers in 1915 will be three times the total amount received from the same source in 1912. The receipts of the automobile d’'- vision of tha state highway depar!- ment for the first six months in 1915, the books for which were closed July lat, show that $1,453,201 had been received. During the last few weeks the receipts of the automobile diviston have been averaging about $1,000 a day. These receipts are the more remark- able wien it is considered that on the first of July, 1912, the total receipt of the sutomobile division were $518 - 000. On the first of July, 1813, these receipts were $749,000 ; ou the first of July, 1914, the $1,000,000 mark had been passed, the receipts showing §1.- 069,000. This figure for July 1 last year was passed early in April of the present year, Naturally the receipts during the first two months of the year are the heaviest, but from February 1 to July 1 the tendency is steadily upwards io all the years. In January, 1912, $210. 000 were ieceived. Ia January of the preeent year the figures were $742,000, an increase of more than onec-hall million in a single month's figures, Officials of the state highway dc- partment say that there is little likell- hood of apy let up in the receipts of the automobile division for the pext two months. Under the registration law the onc-half rate fees went into effect last week and as a result cf this there will be probably a sharp increase in the number of registrations and li- censes granted during the next month or six weeks. It is likely that the §1,- 500,000 mark will be passed within the mation given at the department, it would seem probable that the total receipts for 1915 would approximate $1,750,000. The total receipts for 1914 were $1,184 646.50; the total receipts for 1913 were $841,012; the total re- ceipts for 1912 were $597,708.
