Up to the iirat oi the current month, 2,000 motor vehicles have been regmtered at the tax omce tor 1930, as compared with 1,500 up to the same date in i929, an increase oi almost 100% over the number registered last year. This increase is attributed to the much earlier sea- son oi this year and the consequent earlier opening oi the roads, and also to the large number o! new cars which have been purchased.
