Good Chance for
Auio Inspection
Revival Is Seen
-♦
Raleigh — Prospects for a re
vived auto inspection program for
North Carolina seemed bright this
week as Motor Vehicles Depart
ment officials examined the results
of last May’s volunteer safety
check project.
Some half-million vehicles were
inspected during the month long
campaign conducted in 90 Tar Heel
communities.
Officials were optimistic. “We
feel confident,” said Commissioner
Ed Scheidt, “that North Carolina
vehicle owners are sold on the
necessity of good car care as evi
denced by their support of the
voluntary safety-check.” Commis
sioner Scheidt was coordinator for
the project in North Carolina.
Three national awards went to
the state he said. Cravan County,

for its program last year.
Nationally more than 800 cities
and 9' cfiuntics participated in the
1956 safety-check program. Spon
sored by the Inter-Industry High

“effective promotional and coop
erative efforts with consideatrion
given for the total number of ve

total community potential."
In appraising the results of the
statewide participation Scheidt said
he was hopeful that ‘ the renewed
interest in mechanically sound ve
hicles is indicative of a new atti
tude toward mechanical inspec
