KLEIN THE TAILOR, 128 E. Main.
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.

Wards install yoor
wator and aec that it work
satisfactorily.
REFRIGERATOR sales always "fall off" about this
time of year, men are laid off, factory production
cat off, buying stopped!
But that is not going to happen this year at Wards.
Men want work! Factories want to avoid "slack" sea
sons! Thousands of families want good refrigerators!
Wards want to sell refrigerators!
So Wards did something about it went to the manu
facturers! Showed them how by cutting their costs to
ns, and we in turn cutting our own small profit, prices
could be reduced . . . and you and thousands of
others would buy the refrigerator you wanted! Good
for all concerned !
The makers agreed 1 Men called back to work ! Produc
tion was again stepped up! Now the refrigerators are
here . . . priced $10 to $20 lower than they have been
priced all season 1 And those prices were already $20
to $70 lower than comparable quality elsewhere.
No Premiums
But Price Reductions!
When you buy a refrigerator at a special price you
want that price to be LOWER you don't want to
pay a full regular price and get something you cant
use thrown in ! Because Ward refrigerators go direct
from maker to Wards 489 stores, Wards prices are
LOWER to begin with! So when those low prices are
reduced you can rest assured the valu ia tb nvt
favorable to be had anywhere!
