MUINDA. JANUARY 16, 1922 PAGE TEN THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON RULES FOR JITNEYS DEVISED Public Service Com mission Asks Cooper ation In Regulating Motor Vehicle Traffic Pointing out that the law plac Ing commercially operated motor vehicles under the Jurisdiction of tl public service commission was unacted "primarily to protect all users of the public high way," Fred A. Williams, chair man of the commission, asks chairman of the commission, asks for the cooperation of all inter ests concerned In the enforcement of the rules and regulations laid down for the operation of auto biles and trucks coming under the purview of the new law. "The commission wants to em Dbasize the- fact that the law it self Is a new departure In this field of regulation in that It does not specify special franchises nor does It give priority or exclusive ly privilege to any citizen of asso- Blatlon of citizens on tne tneory that every auto licensee has a po tential Interest in the highway," Williams declares. Uniformity to Govern. "Every rule falls with equal ap plication on any citizen or appli cant who can meet the require ments of the law for the opera tion of passenger and freight mo tor vehicles for compensation. "The rules and regulations adopted by the commission have been considered from a standpoint of uniformity , and vary little from those In effect in our sister J states of Washington and Cal fornta. The advantages of such system are plainly apparent. "The 'good faith bond' as de nominated Is required to preven 'wild catting', and 'fly-by-nigh . and irresponsible operators who Infest the roads during favorable seasons of the year when business )s brisk and deprive the 'yeu around operator' from his just dues. Many times they do not own -the cars they operate and I case of accident are unable to re spond In damages for their lnex perlence and negligence. Such In dlvlduals are menace to the tra vellng public and must be effoc lively dealt with. This is the tea ture which Is Intended to be cov ered by this bond. Cooperation Asked. "It can hardly be expectod that the administration will be uccom pllshed without many difficulties. The successful direction of this - law will require the greatest vigl lance end precaution. It will therefore demand not only most careful surveillance on the part of the commission and courts, but strict accountability on the part of licensed bus and truck opera tors. "With the universal demand for bus and truck regulation our per spective Is and will be to conduct a campaign of education and pro tection contemporaneously. Necea sarlly the public buBses and trucks are administered with stricter su pervision than the Individuals but that does not mean that the in dividual should transgress the law with any greater Impunity, Blanks Prepared. "The commission has prepared ..application blanks for all com panics, associations alnd persons operating for compensation, to gether with instructions as to the bonds and insurance. The require ments go into considerable dot ail. Answers must be given under oath so that the commission will have sufficient reliable Informa tion to act in the first instance without holding a formal hearing."
