HIGHWAY SAFETY PATROL

West Liberty was selected as one of the 10 Iowa hishway patrol stations because of its central location in the district.

The headquarters opened here August 2, 1937, with offices maintained partly by local business men. Recently the location was changed to rooms above the post office. Sergeant Edgar Faber and Officers Warren Crane, Richard Hohl, Kenneth Daly, Ivan Franklin, and Earl Cummings compose the staff of patrolmen in the local unit.

The crews working in shifts, day and night, are on duty 12 hours, each man covering approximately 300 miles daily.
