Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. which the state highway patrol and safety division have had in their ef forts to reduce highway accidents, and the only hope of reducing the ac cident record is for the newspapers to continue their safety campaign, Captain Charles D. Farmer of the State Highway Patrol said today. “Without the help and support of the newspapers of the State, the high way patrol would be greatly hamper ed" and rendered almost powerless in doing any constructive work towards reducing accidents in the State, Cap newspapers help us by turning the tain Farmer said. ‘‘For unless the light of publicity on drunken and reckless drivers and by keeping the people informed concerning the light penalties imposed by some courts, we HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, FRIDA*, MARCH 2i, 1936 would not he able to accomplish much. The patrolmen can continue to arrest drivers who violate the law, unless the judges convict these ar rested and impose penalties that hurt, the arrests mean nothing. In the fin al analysis it is the judges rather than the patrolmen who enforce the laws.” Gives Credit To Press If it were not for the fact that the newspapers have taken a fearless stand favoring the enforcement of the highway laws and the reduction of highway accidents, the record would now be going up instead of down, Farmer said. There would also he many more judges who would con sent to change the charges in war rants sworn out by patrolmen than at present, as did the judge of the re corder’s court in Tarboro this week, when he allowed a man arrested for drunken driving to plead guilty to reckless driving instead, so he would not lose his driver’s license for a year. “There are still a few judges who permit warrants to be changed to less seri'ous offenses and in whose courts it is very difficult for patrol men to ge t convictions, hut not many,” Captain Farmer said. “The reason so few try to do this is be cause they know the newspapers will not hesitate to print the facts and that the public opinion will react against them. But if it were not for this fact, it would be very difficult to get convictions for drunken and reck less driving. That is why we need the continued support of the news papers and their safety campaigns.” On Right Track North Carolina is at least on the right track and making real progress in reducing the number of automobile and highway accidents, B. R. Stroup, field representative of the National safety Council in the southeastern states, and director A. W. Boland, of the motor vehicle division of the South Carolina Highway Commission, said in the course of a visit here Thursday. They paid especial atten tion to the new driver’s license law and the manner in which it is being administered by the Division of High way Safety of the Department of Rev enue. “The North Caroina. driver’s license law is one of the best in the country and one that has real teeth in it,” Stroup, v.’ho was formerly director of the South Carolina motor vehicle di vision, said. “Drivers in other states are already finding out about it and are realizing that it is not safe to take any chances in North Carolina. The provision in the law under which those who are convicted of drunken driving immediately lose their driv ing permits for one year and for an additional year on a second offense, are splendid. I wish more states had the same type of law”. Commends Newspapers “I .wish you could tell us how you get the newspapers of the State to co operate and especially to print the names of those convicted of drunken driving whose licenses are revoked,” Director Boland said. “We revoke the licenses of those convicted of drunk en driving in South Carolina for 60 days on the first conviction and 120 days on a second. Our law would be much more effective if we could re voke- the driving permits for one as you do here in North Carolina, how ever. We are also hampered by the fact that we have to try most of our cases in magistrates courts and that we frequently change the charges in warrants to a lesser offense that does no carry automatic revocation of the driver's license.” Director Arthur Fulk of the North Caroling Highway Safety Division, told Director Boland of the South Carolina Motor Vehicle Division that the newspapers in the State have been bdfcking up the safety division 100 percent both in its highway safety campaign and in giving publicity to the names of those whose driving per mits are revoked for drunken driving.
