States to announce 1915 automobile plate colors
Secretary of State J. E. Alexander will soon announce the 1915 plate colors and order designs for the new registration season starting January 1. Green and red are reportedly avoided due to material costs. New Hampshire set green figures on white, ordering 10,000 plates and 3,500 chauffeurs’ badges for delivery before January 1. Some Somerset County owners plan to seek lower registration fees via legislation, citing a 1911 law that halves fees if applied by October 1 for the next year.
