For Immediate action the City Attorney was ordered to draft an ordinance prohibiting loads of more than four tons to travel the Btreeis at more than four miles an hour. Thursday evening tho Council will meet to handle, the ordinance as an "emer gency ordinance." Several times tho matter of log ging through tho main strectH haii been before tho Council. Tlmo and ngaln tho Council uiemborH have condemned It as a step toward ruin ing all hard Biirfaco paving over which the big trucks and their trailers travel. A week ago Waltor Condron ap peared before tho Council and de clared that hereafter all trucktj will ho limited to not more than five or hIx miles an hour at most, while loaded. The Council said this could ho tried out. Co Over Slv .Miles. In his auto Mr. Copplo mild ho had followed one of tho trucka and found It traveling between nix mid eight miles nn hour. Other city dadH declared that tho trucks have not In tho Inst week boon keeping down to tho prescribed limit mid that tho result Is a -bumping nuri hammering to pieces of tho puvlng. "They aro iiBlng two trailers now" declared Duncan Ferguson, Sr., "I believe that tho practice Is riau gorouu. They are liable to tip over, tho trailers nro iinwlclrily and Itn hard to say what will happen through our streets." "They claim that to cut off tho trailers means they would havo to go back to the old method or teams to haul their logs and that tho last inctlTod leaves them no profit," said Mayor Allen."" ' Watch Properly Interests Tho Councilmen expressed them selves ns favoring more tho watch ,on tho paving which must bo paid Tor by tho proporty owners than tho profits of tho logging company. Thoy wanted tho ordinance In .1 hurry. Somo thought It. should bo voted 011 tonight, but this la a legal holiday, and thoy could not. John Kendall, Assistant City Attor" ney, stated that thero Is now a test enso In tho Supremo Court to find out If ordinances passed with emer gency clausos nro legal.
