limits fixed by the county court
were discussed by Mayor George
O. Knowles at the Tuesday noon
luncheon of the commercial club.
The mayor did not offer any criti
cism of the action of the court,
but suggested that it might bo pos
sible to save the roads, and at
the same time accommodate the
sawmills, by having tho mills or
truck operators post bonds suffi
cient to cover damago which might
be done the roads by the operation
of their trucks. It is contended
that small trucks with small tires,
which are permitted to use the
roads, do more damage than the
heavier trucks with wide tires.
A case cited by Mr. Knowles
is that of tho Perini mill on tho
Coast fork. Mr. Perini wishes to
haul his logs over the county road
for a distance of a quartor of a
mile. It is impossible for him to
build a private road for temporary
use because the construction coBt
would bo prohibitive, but ho might
be able to indemnify tho county
for damage likely to be dono. Mr.
Knowles said that this method of
permitting operators to proceed
has been adopted in another county.
H. W. Titus, chairman of the
entertainment committee, spoke of
the plans of the Baptist church
for the erection of a substan*'ai
church edifice within the near
future.
