This 4 includes for hire trucks and busses oper ating as common carriers for their private gain. The last Legislature passed a law requiring these f or-hire busses and trucks to pay a moderate charge to reimburse the State and Counties in part only for the damage these heavy busses and trucks are doing to the highway. Whether this law becomes effective May 28, 1925, rests with the people. , , . .i The Motor Bus and Freight Truck Associations are circulating referendum peti tions to hold up this law until November, 1926. If the people sign these referendum petitions- the private car owners and the general taxpayer will continue to pay the tremendous cost of maintaining these highways without receiving substantial help or aid from these f or-hire trucks and busses that are doing most of the damage When you are asked to sign one of these petitions remember that it is a commercial bus or truck company that is asking you to relieve them of paying for the great dam age that they are doing to our roads. . Refuse to sign these petitions and advise your neighbors to do the same. Oregon State Association of County Judges and Commissioners H. L. Hasbrouck, Hood River President : J. T.
