To Inspect Stations
It is expected that an official addi-
tional man will be sent to each sub-
station of the State Highway Patrol
next week to do nothing but look after
He will not have
any other duties than to check up on
‘the work done in the officially appoin-
ted inspection garages. :
This same work is being assigned to
special men to be sent to all of the
substations in the State. They will
see to it that garages keep up to the
standards required in the inspection
work. The State is getting “set” to
make those who have no inspection
certificates regret the oversight when
March 31 rolls around and the arrest-
period of three months starts.
Motorist Complain
Motorists of this section are paying
plenty for the building and upkeep of
their State and county highways. The
snow of last Sunday which covered
this region warranted the bringing
out of snow plows and the cleaning of
the road ways, but it seems that they
did warrant a little more attention for
the highways than was given. The
light snow was soon packed hard and!
ice and slippery roads resulted. Yet,
on hills which are dangerous to driv-
ers with or without chains, the piles
of cinders remained untouched. It
seems that there should be some sys-
tem whereby an employee could be
notified when a certain hill is slip-)
pery so that he might get men on the
job and remedy the situation by
throwing a few shovels of cinders over
the ice covered patch. It would re-
quire only a few minutes work and
the highways would be safe for trav- |
eling. :
