Hodges Calls For Vehicle Inspection RALEIGH (API ? Gov Hodges came out Wadnesday in favor of chemical tests for detecting drunk drivers and for motor vehicles in spection. In a speech before the third an neal Governor's Traffic Safety Council. Hodges noted that both these proposals were part of the lopislative program of the Motor Vehicles Department. "As governor." he told the coun cil members, "I certainly hope that the General Assembly, at its ap proaching session, will enact the requested legislation." The governor quoted from fig ures of the highway safety com mittee of the National Governors Conference. They showed traffic deaths over the nation as a whole increased 8 per cent from 1954 to 1955, and an all-time high of 42.000 deaths is anticipated for 1956. He said even though North Car olina's fatalities are running 6 per cent under last year. "This is small consolation in the face of the f^rt that 1,000 people have died ^^vcessary deaths on North Caro ler highways so far this year." He said a request for funds to increase the highway patrol by 100 men was being studied by the Ad visory Budget Commission. A SMALL mountain of dirt was removed from the trunk sewer line near the highway at I,ake Junaluska. This came from one manhole, and is indicative of the amount of sand and gravel which was blocking over 50 per cent of the line at that point. (Mountaineer Photo).
