An article in "Trade Lanes," a "transportation newspaper of the northwest," In Its Issue of Thursday. August 30 charges alleged evasions of tVi rtrttonrt tntrtr Transnor ration law," and that "Oregon farmers are entirely too neignooriy." Ralph J. Staehll. secretary of the Allied Truck Owners .cites a number of instances of alleged evasions In this sjctlon, stating that m tne Meaiora district "there waa a trucker hauling for hire, who gave his address an Ladysmlth, Wis. He had an Arkansas license, and an Oregon sticxer. The article In full Is as follows. "Oregon's regulated trucking in dustry complains that Oregon 'farm ers' are entirely too neighborly. When an alleged farmer from Mtl wniiicie. another from Ontario, a third from La Grande and many others from noints 20 to 30 miles distant In converge on the Medford district in the harvest season to haul pears to market and to canneries, that is stretching nelghborllness beyond the limit. Oregon's Motor Transportation Act. ir33. as amended, provides exemp tions for trucks of farmers transport ing their own goods from farm to market, shipping point, packing plant and for "the Infrequent transporta tion" on 14 -ton trucks or trucks of .era capacity and for nominal con sideration by one farmer or orchardist for another farmer or orcnaraist " hi. irnmriit neiehborhood of pro ducts of the farm, orchard or dairy to market, and the Infrequent trans portation on such trucks for nominal nnMoratinn from market to farm or orchard of Jood stuffs or other com modities consumed on said farm or orchard, or the infrequent transporta tion of livestock for nominal con sideration by one farmer for another farmer. "This." says tne law, -ni not constitute transportation for hire within the provisions of this act." "In southern Oregon." says na.w J Staehll, secretary. Alliend TrucK Owners, "there has been a complete breakdown of enforcement of the mo tor transportation act. "There are irucKs on swi that have no PUC plates or code In signia. Some do not even have li censes. In the Medford district there was a trucker hauling for hire who gave his address as Ladysmlth, Wis. He had an Arkansas license and an Oregon sticker. He got a temporary permit In June and waa still running (in August), although it expired June 30. One fellow had a license for a Dodge roadster that proved on,, in spection to be a 2-ton truck." Mr. Staehll said he saw In the Med ford district trucks carrying farmers' licenses which had been registered from Milwaukle, Ontario. La Grande. nrlriltlnn in manv from 30 to 30 mile awav from the place where they were operating for hire. On the road he passed a parade of 6 trucks, only one of which had a PUC plate, all apparently operating Ibr hire. Two trucks hauling supplies for Cra ter lake road construction work were minus PUC plates. Mr. StaehU report a contract car rier with a contract to haul flour from Portland to Cottage Grove for 17ic per cwt. who hauls the flour as far as Eugene and there pays an other trucker 15c per cwt. to haul it the rest of the way. leaving only 2ac per cwt. for his own operations over the 124-mile run. Complaints are made to the PUC from time to time of private carriers, who, after delivering their own goods, haul back loads for low rates or no charge at all and of others who han dle freight other than their own for their customers. Among the chief exempt truck of fenders Is said to be the small farmer who has a truck and not enough work for his 2 or 3 boys. The boys fill in their time hauling freight for "neighbors." A Harrlsburg trucker registering with the Oregon trucking code au thority said he felt as If he was throwing away his $3 registration fee as he was the only operator In his vicinity who had even PUC plates. Under the Oregon license law as amended at the special session of the legislature, unless the combined weight of vehicle and load Is over 4000 lbs. a truck Is not a truck Hence, the auto licence bureau, de partment of state, finds Itself Issuing $5 licenses to trucks weighing up to 3500 lbs., although it Is difficult to Imagine a 3500-lb. truck carrying only a 500-lb, load. A tabulation o! these trucks which the law says are not trucks is being made for the interim committee on motor transportation. 4 BIRTHS Mr. and Mrs. Ben Trowbridge of Crown Hill are the parent of a Baby girl, weighing five pounds, one ounce, born Tuesday at the Community hos pital. 1 SEE GUY W.
