Indiana Secretary of State Frederick E. Schortemeier announced that the next Legislature will be asked to pass an automobile driver's license law. He spoke after presiding at a Chicago meeting of the Mid-West Association of Automobile Administrators where neighboring states adopted a resolution backing such laws and reporting from eastern states on accident reductions.
