Safety Regulations
To Continue Over
Summer Week-ends
Erring Motorists Will Again
Be Called For Reexamination
And Possible Revocation Of
Licenses

AS a result Of the success of the
Fourth Of July holiday Traffic
Enforcement regulations, spon-
sored by the Maryland Traffic
Safety Commission, in which it
had the cooperation of Commits
sioner of Motor Vehicles, the SAT-
ETY. Commission has requested,
and been assured, that those same
regulations will be enforced
throughout the remaining week
ends of the summer.
The plan of the Safety Com
mission includes the re-examina-
ton, and possible revocation of
licenses, Of those drivers arrested
and found guilty Of violations
which are commonly the cause of
accidents. The period of the rigid
enforcement will extend from Fri
day midnight until Sunday at
midnight. Over the three day
Fourth of July holiday, 300
violators were called in for re-ex-
animation, and drastic action
taken in a number of cases.
In requesting continuation of
these regulations over week-ends,
E. R. McShane, Executive Secre-
tary of the Traffic Safety Com
missions in letter to the Com
missioner of Motor Vehicles, said
with the tremendous increase in
motor vehicle registration in the
State, which according to to your
figures is well over $4,000 more
vehicles than were registered at
the same time a year ago, it be-
comes increasingly evident that
stricter regulations must be had
in order to make for safer motor
ing.
at is our suggestion that, be-
cause of the ever increasing con-
gestion on our roads on Satur-
days and Sundays, you again
have all offenders who have been
arrested and convicted on these
two days during the summer
months brought into your office
for re-examination with the idea
in mind of revoking licenses of
those who seem inclined to dis
regard the law. 1t is quite evil
dent that more concentrated effort
to discipline our careless drivers
is necessary. The careless, reck-
less driver, of course, is in the
minority, but his presence on the
roads detracts from the Safety,
comfort and pleasure of all others
who use the highways"

of only 1913 per cent in urban

GREAT DESERT
 FORT TO BASE
 17,OOO TROOPS
Huachuca Most Modern of United States Mili-
 tary Posts
.RY WILLIAM McMENAMIN

BY WILLIAM McMENAMIN United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Blsbee Ariz., Dec. i5- (UP) = Fort Huachuca, called the nations most modern of military posts, has quadrupled in size during the last year until there now are 6,l43 negro troops stationed there, mili- tary authorities revealed.
 Strategically located to permit access to the valleys of the sonoita and Santa Cruz and still control the San Pedro valley and Puerto de las Mulas, the fort is situated ideally to defend the nations southern border from attack.
 Fort Huachuca is the only mili- tary post on the International boundary line with Mexico between California and Fort Bliss, Texas.
 The fort contained only i,700 troops last November but since then 300 new buildings have been built to provide facilities for the 2eth and 3esth infantry regiments, bringing them to full wartime strength.
 Greatest Desert Project Military authorities called the expansion ono of the greatest building projects of modern times in an isolated desert area. They anticipate expansion of the fort still further to provide facilities for 1000 men.
 The new division, arranged along trlaguiar lines laid down by new war department plans would include the present two reg iments plus another infantry regl- inent, division of artillery, engineer- Ing, quartermnSter and medical bHt- talions and division troops.
 Facilities at present include barracks, headquarters buildings, athletic fields, motion picture the- aters, q bakery, Ice plant, electric power plant, laundry, deep well water system, sewage disposal plant, chapelS, hospital fire de- partment and even Q dental clinic.
 Present plans call for adding an air field, artillery, aerial gunnery and rifle ranges.
 old Indian Post
 Companies D and M of the Sixth Calvary regiment camped on the site March 8, 1877 under command of Capt. Samuel Mamaduke White- side and used it as c base for fight ing iiarauding Indian bands from below tic border.
 The commanding general of Arizona declared the camp per- inanent one on January 2l, 1878, and buildings were constructed n 1882 when the fort took It's present name.
 From that timc on the garrison stationed at Fort Huachuea served as c bulwark against pIilaging bands Of thieVing Indians. An ex. pansion brought the fort up to itS modern standards in 1030.3i and the i040 defense expansion has made 1t tho leading base for colored troops in tho nation.
