a whoop or a holler for the current jukebox glorification of his
name. "They're sure makin' a thing of it," say the1 31-year-old

admits hearing "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" a "couple of times."

Davy IV how things were in the old days, he had to go out and

WASHINGTON I A loosening
of federal regulations on common
carrier transportation, along wun
stiffer controls on private and
contract carriers, has been recom
mended by five of President
Eisenhower's cabinet members.
For example, the caoinet level
committee suggested stripping the
Interstate Commerce commission
of its authority to fix precise rates
for common carriers, leaving It to
fix maximum and minimum rates.
The carriers could then set their
own rates, within those limits, and
review upon complaint.
It suggested also that the ICC's
power .to suspend 'proposed rate
changes should be modified so that
it could do so only upon a finding
that the proposed new rates would
be unlawful and would result in
injury to a complainant. The period
in which a suspension could be
ordered would be cut from tne
present seven months to three.
The report suggested limiting of
private truck operations to distri
bution of the owner's products and
the return haul of materials used
in his business. It said this would
abate "infringement of private
carriers upon common carriers."
Contract' carriers would be
required to post . their rates
publicly, and they would be
required to become common car
riers if the ICC found that they
were performing such services. A
common carrier is one whose needed to put the recommendations Sen. Magnuson (D-Wash), chair- "On first glance," he west om,
