247 6 Motorists Lose Right to Drive in 1 10 Months; State Department Denies Licenses to 5440 More

Barred When Phen Exominers

‘Felt They Would Be Hazards on Road.

~ Indiana’s courts and the State Auto License Department suspended or revoked the licenses of 2476 motorists during the first 10 months

of this year, Robert C. Hill, License

Department chief hearing judge, announced today. “Adding these together means

that 2476 drivers were barred from

the roads for a total of 271,928 driver-days,” Judge Hill said. In addition, the License Department has refused to issue divers’ licenses to 5440 - applicants on _ grounds of physical handicaps, inability to operate motor vehicles properly or ignorance of traffic laws. Pointing out that there were approximately one and a half million Indiana automobile drivers, Mr. Hill said: “Our idea, of course, is not to attempt to keep drivers off the roads. We want to keep them driving, but we want to be sure that they drive safely. The motorists prohibited from driving ware barred because we , felt they constituted a hazard to

themselves and to others.”

Drunk Drivers Lead List A breakdown of causes for revocation or suspension of drivers’ licenses shows that up to Nov. 1, drunken drivers led the list with 1439 sus-

pensions and’ revocations on first |

offense and 14 additional on second offense. Other causes were manslaughter, * 4; failre to stop after an accident, 20; operating a motor vehicle while their license was under suspension, 13; perjury, 11; operating without a driver’s license, 187; reckless driving, 504; fajlure to stop for a. traffic light, 21; failure to stop for preimproper turns, 9; failure to signal, 4; cutting in and out of traffic, 10, and miscellaneous, 204. Judge Hill said much of the success of the present campaigh to rid the highways of dangerous drivers was due to increased co-operation which state agencies were Tecetving from local officials. . He asked that local officials continue to send to his department all conviction records on motorists.

DRAFT REPORT; HEARINGS END

Bishop Leonard Urges WPA Aliens Be Deported, U. S. Publications Studied.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16 (U. P.) — Chairman Martin Dies (D. Tex.) and his colleagues of the House Commit- | tee Investigating un-American ac-| tivities today began a two-weeks|_ task of preparing a report for €ongress. The controversial investigation closed yesterday after Methodist Bishop Adna Wright Leonard, Pittsburgh, urged deportation of aliens on relief rolls and advocated a thorough inquiry into 70 Federal publications allegedly promoting class hatred. The Bishop said that the publications emerged from the Government Printing Office on orders of Federal bureaus and departments, and that the character of “some of them is calculated to deceive the very elect.” “By several statements and in diverse ways class hatred is encouraged, collectivism is advocated, and

fare exalted, ” he said. “It is. impor-. tant that the American people know ‘1 to what extent the Federal Government has become a competitor and whether or not more than 70 publications are actually educational and informational.” He testified that he had heard that many aliens are on WPA rolls, and

should be deported to avoid. increasing the tax burden. Emphasizing that he was speaking “with no disrespect” to Labor Secretary Perkins, the Bishop expréssed the “hope and wish” that-a nationally known man might be appointed to the Cabinet post to “render in that Department the statesmanlike servicg ‘that Mr. Hull is rendering as Secretary of State.”

More Fiinds Asked

‘Rep. Dies indicated that the report probably would include recommendations for drastic tightening of restrictions. against alien activities in this country. He said previously that he also would ask Congress for additional funds to continue his inquiry because ‘we have scratched only the surface.” It was learned that Rep. Dies told other members of the group that he |~ does not intend to “smear” the Administration despite the fact that Interior Secretary Ickes, Miss Perkins and WPA Administrator Harry L. Hopkins have been criticized at the hearings. Some New Deal members of the Committee are understood to have warned Rep. Dies that the report
