Upon request of the Division of Health, any person to whom any

No person obtaining a permit under the provisions of this Article
shall use or cause to be used in or about the business of vending
or distributing ice in the city any wagon or other vehicle which shall
not have attached thereon metal plates in accordance with the provisions

of the permit year or period for which such metal plates were issued,
to remove or cause to be removed such plates from such wagon or other
