Wheel Tax Tags Arrive in City and Sell Quickly
The first day of the wheel tax tag sale shows strong demand with Alderman W W Hyde of the second ward purchasing six and Charles Brotton four. Aluminum tags four by two inches with bold inscriptions are issued and can be mounted near the license plate. The rush to obtain No 1 began as Hyde secured the first tag, with many others applying. City Clerk Blackman notes the initial shipment contained 100 tags though a larger shipment is promised for early next week. Police will enforce displaying paid wheel tax once the remaining 1,900 tags arrive and purchases are completed.
