Meet Ends
SACRAMENTO (UPI The Gov
ernors Traltic baiety uonterence
wound up its two-day meeting here
Friday with a recommendation
that drunk drivers be jailed for
their tirst offense.
The conference also recommend
ed that illiterates not be allowed
to obtain drivers licenses. Its rec
ommendation said state law
should require that all applicants
for licenses should be able to reaa
and understand traffic signs.
Panel discussions of the confer
ence ran into trouble over meth
ods of handling juvenile cases. The
drivers licensing panel suggested
that juvenile traffic cases be
handled in traffic or municipal
courts rather than by juvenile
authorities.
But a leen-ige sanel disagreed,
saying a traffic division should be
set ud within the juvenile court to
handle young traffic offenders.
The conference also rec
ommended: 1. Thrt at "some point in the
scale of seriousness of uffense or
number of repetitions of violation
it would appear that a court ap
Dearance be made mandatory."
2. That continued efforts be
made towards statewide aoproval
of radar speed measuring devices,
fixed speed limits and chemical
tests for intoxication.
3. The highway patrol be per
mitted to use unmarked cars in
'problem areas.
4. Every high school student be
reouired to comolete a minimum
ol 12 hours in driver training.

To Meet Here
brought their families here at
their own expense. The families
came as tourists, with Japanese
visas.
Brig. Gen. David F. O'Neil said
his Marine Air Wing advised its
personnel of an order issued last
March by Ucn. Kandolpn iwciau
Pate, Marine Corps commandant,
that families may not "accompany
nor later join" Marines assigned
to the Far Last.
O'Neil said about 250 Marines
with an average of two dependents
each are involved.
"Most will go home on Navy
shipping on a space available
basis," he said. "This will avoid
the financial burden involved."
The 1st Marine Air Wing is one
of two Marine combat units on
duty in Japan. The Marine Corps
ban on families also applies to the
3rd Marine Division, but there
was no report on how many, if
any, dependents of its men were
ordered home.
Army, Air Force and Navy per
sonnel are allowed to bring their
dependents to Japan. The govern

housing and schooling for those
of above sergeant's rank who
agree to remain abroad three
years.
