Although very few reports have

throughout the scrap campaign that
the schools all over the county have
made a very creditable showing, ac­

Truck Certificates

trailer or pickup and every owner of
a truck used mainly to haul farm pro-
duey or farm supplies must apply fer
a Certificate of War Necessity to op­

according to a recent order of the Of-
fice of Defense Transportation.

Far years the bus lines, like other
forma of transportation, have been
developing their coaches and organi-
sations to give faster transportation
with greater safety As a result, run-
ning time has been drastically cut
from year to year and the traveling
public has come to depend on buses
for safe, convenient transportation,
and the bus companies have kept pace
with the modem demands of a fast-
moving age.
Today, in order to conserve precious
rubber and other materials vital to
our war effort, it has suddenly be­
come necessary to drastically reduce
the speed of highway transportation.
In commenting on the recent order til
the Office of Defense Transportation,
which allowed the bus lines until
October 15 to adjust their schedules
to the 35-mile-per-hour Ümit, F. W.
Ackerman, vice president of Pacific
Greyhound Linee, pointed out some of
the difficulties faced by his organi­
sation in complying with the order.
Said Mr. Ackerman:
“The task faced by Pacific Grey­
hound is a colossal one. Thousand
upon thousands of arrival and de­
parture times most be changed,
throughout the entire west. Hundreds
of connections must be worked out at
transfer points, all meal and reet
stope rearranged. The working hours
of drivers and depot employees must
be readjusted to meet the changed
schedules. Then complete new time­
tables must be prepared and printed.
These are major changes, but in ad­
dition there are^ountlees other diffi­
culties caused by the speed reduction
that must be ironed out All of this
we are doing as quickly as it is hu­
manly possible. There Is the scute
shortage , of trained, personnel; also
the difficulty in obtaining new equip­
