may make application to the Director of Health for a license, which,
if issued, will relieve the holder of the above requirement that an
inspection stamp be attached to every tag. Every such application
for a license shall be accompanied by a fee of twenty-five dollars
($25.00). Each license shall expire one year from the date of issu-
ance, unless sooner revoked.

Every holder of a license shall make a report to the Director of
Health every three months. Such report shall show the exact number
of articles manufactured in or shipped into this State by such
licensee which are included within the provisions of this sub-title
during the period covered by the report and shall at the same time
pay to said Director one cent for each article manufactured in or
shipped into this State. Such reports shall be made under oath
within thirty days of the expiration of the three-month period,
unless such time is extended by the Director. Whenever any licensee
shall fail to make the report and payment required herein or when-
ever such report is unsatisfactory, the Director may cause to be
examined the books and records of such licensee for the purpose of
determining the correct amount due from such licensee. In case of
default in the payment of the amount so found to be due, together
with expenses incurred in making such examination, such licensee
shall forfeit its license.

[All fees collected under the provisions of this section shall be paid
to the Director of Health, and, when so collected and paid, shall
thereafter be by the said Director of Health, placed in a separate
fund, to be known as the bedding fund, into which all moneys collected
under the provisions of this section shall be paid, and from which
all expenditures necessary in carrying into effect the provisions of
this section shall be paid.]

[All moneys in the bedding fund, from time to time, are hereby
specifically appropriated to the Department of Health, for the pur-
pose of carrying into effect the provisions of this section, and for
the payment of salaries and expenses of inspectors, employees, and
for research, or any other necessary expenses of said Department
of Health, connected with the enforcement of this section.] All
moneys collected by the State Board of Health under the provisions
of Section 65 shall be paid into the general funds of the State Treas-
ury and shall be expended as provided in the Budget.

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take effect
July 1, 1959.

Approved April 3, 1959.
