20 article, provided, however, that an additional annual service charge of
21 fifteen dollars shall be charged for such plate.

25 to subdivision four of this section will be sufficient to recover the
26 costs of the design and manufacture of such special plates.
27 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
