"We talk about war. In th? eigh
teen months that American troops
were engaged in fighting in France
48,000 soldiers lost heir lives on the
battlefields. In exactly the same
period 91,000 persons, 25,000 of

the existing traffic laws were suffi

enforcement. He advocated a State

licenses. Examinations as conduct
