INSTEAD JK. During the past week the Motor, Vehicle Inspection Bill introduced •several we&s ago was killed by the House Committee on Roads by a substartftot majority . This is highly desirable legisla tion but the people of the state have not forgotten about the.Jasper!ion act passed in 1947. This law was badly administered and there was so much dissatisfaction’that one of the first acts of the 1949 Assembly was the repeal of the 1947. law. People Need Time A wisely drawn ael properly ad ministered would in my opinion 1 save lives and injuries on our high ways but until more time has pass- ] ed since the enactment of the form- i er law it seems that the people want no inspection > at ail. The compulsory liability insur * ance bill passed by the House was ! the state a chance .to see whether the law works as its ■ proponents think it would and would also give ievidence as to the cost,of liability insurance with the law' in effect ! which was one of the reasons given . against the enactment of-;this legis Jation. -., I voted lor the bill in the House and feci ,fthat it will give auto own ers who provide for 1 he protection of others 1 he-same protect ion .from irrespons ble owners who refuse U> voluntarily get such protection. Police Loan Agencies Several days ago a bill was in trot ueed by Mr. White of Lenoir County that dealt with the policing ed there was evidence that the same unethical practices had con tinued. ’ After the Introduction of the While Bill those interested tlviughl that it was possible to broaden the present powers of the Commis sioner ot Banks to handle the problem. A bill doing just tliat was introduced during the past week. It is to be hoped that this legislation passes t> the end that we may bettei' protect smalt wage earners iroin the loan sharks. The’ Minimum Wage Bill that was killed in the House Committee on given a favorable report by the Senate with a amendment. This amendment would provtde that the lift expire in 1961 unless renewed ! before (hot time.
