Note: Data for 1960–1961 did not distinguish between license revocations and suspensions. Based upon later studies by other authors, it seems likely the “Other” category included letters of reprimand, probation, duplicate actions taken upon a previous action, and so on. No data appear to have been reported for 1965.
