MEMBER: SOUTH CAROLINA PRESS ASSOCIATION NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION National Advertising Representative AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION New York Chicago Detroit Philadelphia Unlicensed Drivers Reported By Motorists Columbia.—Many South Carolina 1 citizens are actively assisting the state highway department in its ef forts to apprehend unlicensed driv ers and persons operating vehicles while their licenses are under sus pension, Chief Commissioner Claude R. McMillan Announced. ! Mr. McMillan said the department has received reports from a number of people over the state telling of persons they know to be operating motor vehicles without valid licens es. This is a great service to the state, the official pointed out, as un licensed drivers are responsibie for a large number of traffic accidents and fatalities each year. Names of persons making such re ports will not • be used by the de partment in its investigations, Mr. McMillan said. However, when re ports are made by mail, the letters should be signed, he added. Over 1,000 cases were made against license law violators during July. OFFICE SUPPLIES Complete line, all the little items needed for the office CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO.
