Cars Must Be In Good
Mechanical Condition

The territory highway patrol is
planning a check-up on the me-
chanical condition of all vehicles
in the Seward district, George
Pickett of the highway patrol
warned today.
Although the patrol has no
equipment for testing lights and
brakes, garages do have. Drivers
are expected to have these safety
devices in top working order,
Pickett said.
Both headlights and tail lights
should be working and correctly
adjusted. Brakes must have at
least a two-inch pedal clearance
when depressed.
The officers also expect to
check for defective horns, mirrors,
mufflers, steering gear, windshield
wipers, etc, as well as for proper
Territorial license plates and
drivers license.
All vehicle owners are requested
to comply with regulations in re-
gard to the violations herein des-
cribed, as it will be necessary to
issue tickets for such violations
Immediately.
