S. P. PRESIDENT
GIVES VIEW ON
MOTOR VEHICLE
"Regarding motor bus and motor
truck competition," said William
Sproule, president of the Southern
Pacific railroad who is visiting Mod
ford today, "all the railroads ask Is
a square deal. Either tax the motor
vehicles as the railroads are 'taxed,
or remove taxes from the railroads
as they are removed from the motor
buses and motor truck. Tho rati
roads do not ask for tax exemption,
of course do not expect it, but
they do ask the some treatment from
the public that their competitors are
granted."
"With the motor buses bearing
their fair sharo of the expense of the
paved highways, which they are al
lowed to use free for private profit,
and with the heavy Tucks wblch are
destroying these, highways which
were not built for such traffic, bar
