Raleigh. Jan. 21 —Drastic highway legislation and an increase in the highway patrol to 150, perhaps 200, men is certain to be the result of laws to be enacted during this session of the General Assembly. Already there have been introduced in both houses measures which would license drivers, provide severe penau ties for- violation of highway regula tions, increase the patrol set up a separate division of highway safety, and make mandatory the imposition om minimum sentences on violators of the highway code. Most numerous of all the drivers’ license bills, most of which provide no increase in the strength of the patrol, but neverthe less imply an increase because they vest the power of administration with the highway patrol. There is strong reason to believe that the laws finally enacted will be declared effective immediately instead of on July 1. as is the custom by vir tue of it being the first day in the new fiscal year. “I see no reason for continuing the slaughter on our highways another six months or more,” says Senator John Sprunt Hill, of Dui-fiam, in be (Continued on Page Five) State program, is the proposed rati fication of the Federal child labor amendment.
