366 LAWS OF MARYLAND. [CH. 218

of an uncancelled license issued by the Comptroller to en-
gage in said business. To procure such license every dealer
shall file with the Comptroller an application upon oath
and in such form as the Comptroller may prescribe, setting
forth the name under which such dealer is transacting
business within the State of Maryland, the names and ad-
dresses of the several persons constituting the firm or part-
nership, and/if a corporation, the corporate name under
which it is authorized to transact business, and the names
and addresses of its principal officers, resident general
agent and attorney in fact. If such dealer is an association
of persons, firm, partnership or corporation organized
under the laws of another State, territory or county, if it
has not already done so, it must first comply with the laws
of Maryland relating to the transaction of its appropriate
business therein.

Upon the filing of an application for a license, and con-
currently therewith, a bond of the character stipulated and
in the amount provided for in Section 213A of this Act shall
be filed with the Comptroller. No license shall issue upon
any application unless accompanied by such a bond.

In the event that any application for a license certificate
to transact business as a dealer in the State of Maryland
shall be filed by any person whose license shall at any time
theretofore have been cancelled for cause by the Comp-
troller, or in case said Comptroller shall be of the opinion
that such application is not filed in good faith, or that such
application is filed by some person as a subterfuge for the
real person in interest whose license or registration shall
theretofore have been cancelled for cause by said Comp-
troller, then and in any of said events the Comptroller,
after a hearing, of which the applicant shall have been
given five (5) days' notice in writing and in which said ap-
plicant shall have the right to appear in person or by coun-
sel and present testimony, shall have and is hereby given
the right and authority to refuse to issue to such a person
a license certificate to transact business as a dealer in the
State of Maryland.

Upon the filing of the application for a license, a filing
fee of one dollar ($1. 00) shall be paid to the Comptroller.

The application in proper form having been accepted for
filing, the filing fee paid, and the bond having been accepted
and approved, the Comptroller shall issue to such dealer a
license certificate to transact business as a dealer in the
State of Maryland subject to cancellation of such license as
provided by law.
