Cause and Effect
It Cost Millions Each
Year to Maintain Our
Highways
The Highway Commission finds 90 of the
damage is caused by 4 of the traffic. 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.
