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.

Moving a printing establishment

It requires lots of good help and
