F ace All Owners Of Automobiles { Law Requires Inspection and" Pur- be of Drivers’ Permits Pennsylvania Trigtor vehicles owners and operators are now confronted by two ‘Musts.” | Operation “of a motor vehicle in the State this year depends on compliance with each: “Must.” Both are law. 4 Ya ~The first of these ‘Musts’ is the nec- essity of applying now c motor ve-! hicle operator's! licen =; for 1932. The fee is $2. Every per on intending to operate a motor vel vania after midnighty February must have a 1932 opdrator’s The work of the Bur hicles will be greatly , facilitated if every operator in the Commonwealth will apply for his tecénse now. Re- jnember, the fee is/§2. | 29, license. The second ‘Must’ is that every mo- | tor vehicle owner and operator in tha State must have his passenger car or motor truck inspected by an official in- spection station between this and mid- night, March 31. Not only is inspec- tion required by law but the neces- sary repairs, corrections or adjust- ments suggested by the inspection station must be made before that date. As in the case of the operator's li- | cense, motor vehicle owners will save themselves much ‘inconvenience and the danger of arrest by with the inspection ruling now. Frequently the first impression one has of a State-wide compulsory mot- or vehicle inspection campaign is that it may be promoted for the advertis- ing of certain equipment for testing motor vehicles, or may be subject to commercialization by those agencies assisting the Commonwealth. Proper Regulations Any means which can be legitima- State or any assistance which can be obtained from outside agencies, if properly regulated, as the present campaign is’ being regulated, would seem to be justified if it does nothing more than periodically attract the at- {heir automobiles which may be poten- tial accident hazards or may become contributory. to accidents. ! Traffic safety is 95 pert cent educa- tn and cent enforcement. The biggest problem is in the education of automobile owners and drivers. When they can be reached the complexities of the problem are pro- 5 per en-masse, portionately reduced. Compulsory when conducted under the proper spices, and with a right appreciation of tt » real principles behind them, are is me:ns to this end, and for the driv: |ers own satisfaction as to the condi- | tion of the cquiptuent on his car which inspection campaigns. au- iniav prove a potential accident hazard. i Oy Hspital Auilliary Meets With Mrs. Ray Shiber, Dallas |.
