Duvall, aiderman, announced that he will propose legislation at the next meeting of the council here to require would be drivers to pass an examination before offi cers’ specially selected before per mits to drive in the city traffic be issued. The ordinance would con trol traffic regulations much the same as is done in several of the larger cities of the country and would establish a bureau which would be supported by small license costs imposed upon those who pass the examination successfully. This method will furnish additional cheek upon automobile drivers and can be made a source of revenue for the city, according to Mr. Duv all. By charging $2 for a license to. drive in the city, he said h<| be ■••tieved that as much as SIOO,OOO in revenue could be raised.
