STATE DIRECTOR OF SAFETY PRAISES SCHOOL PATROL Major J. P Smith, director of the Department of Public Safe¬ ty, praises the work of the School Safety Patrolmen and all school officials for their untir¬ ing efforts in this important phase of safety work. He also urges that violations of the School Bus Stop Law and reck : less driving in the vicinity of schools must cease. There were 2,822 school busses engaged in transporting children to and from school In Georgia last year, of which 24 were in¬ volved in accidents. There were no fatalities resulting from these accidents, yet 24 children receiv¬ ed minor to serious injuries. However, three fatalities wehe incurred by school children en- routs to and from school. One was crossing highway to bus stop, one was crossing highway from school bus, and one was' walking home from school. Major Smith urges all motor¬ ists to strictly observe the School Bus top Law, and to drive with utmost caution when approach¬ ing children. Let’s get behind a real program for safety of our j school children. The Symbol of School Child Protection is the alert Safety School Patrol Members on duty rain or shing at street intersec- 1 tions near schools and riding on the school busses. Their duties 1 of helping safeguard the lives I of school children through the 1 year 1946 were faithfully carried | out. The license plate numbers of 1,438 motor vehicles were report¬ ed by school patrolmen through¬ out the state, as having violated I the Georgia School Bus Stop Law; 1,280 in violation were reg¬ istered in Georgia, and 158 were ! out of state vehicles.
