Reorganization of Louisiana Highway Police Under Roy
New Orleans February 23 The shakeup in the State Highway Commission dismisses Senator James L Anderson as head of enforcement and names Colonel E P Roy from the adjutant general’s department to lead the highway police. Roy’s appointment aims to align highway enforcement with military lines and links the police more closely to the National Guard for efficiency and savings. The move follows discussions with National Guard officials as the commission seeks a police force with a military record and strong organizational ability.
