Sowers Garage GENERAL AVTO RSPASHNO' jW '■i <■ INSPECTION OF PRIVATE CARS BEGINS MONDAY IN CLINTON State Highway Department Inspection Station To Be Set Up Here For 11 Days. Cars and Trucks Musi Be Inspected Under Provisions of Law. Inspection of automobiles and trucks will begin in Clinton next Monday, April 16, and continue through the 26th, it is announced by the state highway department. The inspection will be in charge of John K. Bradley, supervisor of highway department inspection station No. 11, which will be set up here for the designated period. The mobile testing lane will be open evwy day from 8 to 5 o’clock, except on Saturday, when the hours are from 8 to 1 o’clock, Bradley said, adding that private passenger cars are to be inspected only as to brakes, lights, steering apparatus and horn. Several other items about trucks and commercial vehicles are checked, he said. All motor vehicles are now required by law to be inspected and secure approval certificates, Bradley declared,'pointing out that the requirements have been changed from the old law which included only trucks, trailers and other commercial vehicles. The supervisor urged that all owners have their vehicles prepared for the inspection before bringing them to the test ing lane. He suggested that by having a competent mechanic go over the vehicle thoroughly and correct its obvious faults before it is inspected, much time can be saved and the neces sity of waiting in line largely eliminated. Those cars already bearing the red, white and blue “sec ond period certificates’’ are_not require to pass inspection again until after May 1, Bradley said, adding that the inspec tion periods are arranged to correspond with the autmnobile license year. . the station is prepared to inspeot over 500 ve hicles a day,” Bradley said, “it should be emphasized that the wise operator will bring his car or truck to the lane as early . as possible in order to avoid a possible rush during the last days that the lane will be here.” In addition to Supei visor Bradley," the station personnel includes Inspectors J. R. Booth, G. Bt Glaze, F. L. Quattle- baum, J. L. Settle and J M. ooth, G. BL Glaze, F. L. Sturgeon. Attention Ford Owners! BE READY TO PASS O.-K.
