                                  AN ACT

     Requiring the Department of Public Instruction to collect past
        due fees and penalties before issuing renewal licenses or
        registration certificates to persons engaged in professions,
        trades or occupations requiring such renewals.

        Section 1.  Be it enacted, &c., That whenever under any act

     trade or occupation is conditioned upon the annual renewal of
     any license or registration granted by the Department of Public
     Instruction, for which renewals a fee is prescribed and required
     to be paid, the department shall, before issuing any such
     renewal license or certificate of registration, collect from the
     person licensed or registered, in addition to the fee for the
     current year, the full amount of all fees and penalties for
     preceding years which the applicant for renewal has theretofore
     failed to pay: Provided, That if in any case the applicant
     proves to the satisfaction of the department that he actually
     has not practiced such profession or worked at such trade or
     occupation at any time during any such preceding year or years,
     then the fee for such year or years shall not be collected.
        Section 2.  All acts and parts of acts inconsistent herewith
     are hereby repealed.
        Section 3.  This act shall become effective immediately upon
     final enactment.
