It is likely, state officials concede, i
that many auto stage lines have been:
operating under "for hire" licenses
and this fact may work to their dis-
advantage when they claim prior

also will e an interesting 'check-up
when the auto transportation section
compares its list of stages and auto
trucks' with those for which 1921
licenses have been issued. The auto
transportation section points out the
fact that one of the interesting fea-
