The association bald It had received numerous complaints from Incoming motorist of "treatment savoring of a hostile foreign frontier." Caravan Act Hurts The principal sore spot, the associ ation said, was the result of arbitrary enforcement of the "caravan act." The association's statement said : "Reports received Indicate that the state department of motor vehicles is requiring non-resident motorists en tering the state to stop and submit to extensive questioning, and de manding that many bonaflde tourists sign affidavits that they are not bringing their cars Into the state for sale. "Such an attitude toward visiting motorists la unnecessary and inex cusable. The law clearly provides that If a caravaner (one who drives cars into the state for sale) falls to obtain a permit and pay the tax In advance, the department can compel payment. It can also add a 50 per cent penalty when the car is sold and registered.
