Harrisburg AP report shows Highway Safety Commissioner Shipley at center of conflict with Pennsylvania lawmakers led by Speaker Andrews and Gov Lawrence. The piece traces Shipley’s rise from safety director to a pivotal executive, his autocratic reputation, and a hospital stay for ulcers as his safety program targets road deaths. The article notes 1961 and 1960 highway fatalities, a map of pins marking deaths, and ongoing political tension over his appointment and methods.
An unclear fragment discusses Shipley aging near 67, smoking, fishing, boating, and gambling, with stray statements about highway accidents not acting as crime, but the text is garbled and contains many unreadable portions.
