Will Defend Motor Title U*
Columbia, January 17,?'Introduc
tion in the senate this week of a bill
to repeal the motor vehicle r?gi*tra
tion law led Representative James O.
Bh^pprd cl Kdgcfu-M o?unt>. to in
|Q? i Mat< nwnt here tonight defend
ing the act and getting out reasons
for Ui continued' existence. The re
cent reduction of 10 per cent in all
automobile tfjeft insurance rates in
South Carolina was attributed by the
Kdtcefield representative, directly to
the operation of the registration law,
which went into effect on the first
i^day of the year. "It becomes practi
cally impossible under the law to
dispose of a stolen motor vehicle in
South Carolina, and to that extent it
discourages the operations of pro
fessional motor thieves within the
borders of our state," he declared.
Representative Sheppard stated that
under the law sheriffs and chiefs of
police are required to report to the
state highway department thefts of
motor vehicles, and the department is
required to report in turn to every
licencing agency in the United States
the theft of any motor vehicle in
South Carolina. "I learned from the
state highway department that as a
result of new systems initiated in the
compilation of its records and with
-the use of improved equipment pro
vided for under this act, that the de
partment will be enabled hereafter to
furnish to the state tax commission at
practically no eost complete records
of motor vehicles -registered and li
censed in the 46 counties of the state.
Such records will be turned over to
the auditors of the respective coun
ties Tor comparison with returns
made in the counties for purposes
of taxation, and it is confidently be
lieved that this system will result
in the placing of thousands of motor J
vehicles on the tax books which hith
erto have escaped taxation." The bill
to repeal the motor title law was
introduced in the senate by Senator
John Howard Moore of Abbeville.
Representative Sheppa^rd sponsored
the existing law in the house and
Senator D. M. Crosson of Lexington,
in the senate.
