T T TRE'S an issue, gentlemen, that affects all of uj ever)- time we lay a dollar on the line. It has to do with highway transportation. Practically everything w Iniv, cat, wear, or c O'Oes nl or pirt of the yoy by truck. Ss'iner)--cight percent of all farm products travel truck. Raw materials, parts, anj sub-assemblies reach our factories hy truck. In fact, our entire eco nomic system is geared to trucks . . . nearly fie million of them . . . operating on every highway anj byway of the nation. .STAT! BARRIERS BOOST COSTS Trucks are doing a magnificent job. Put they c""li ila II better more efficiently jf jt ssercn't for 2 v:ist mire of contr.iiTicton' t ire l.iss. In one state you can operate a 60-foot truck-trailer. Cross the state line, and you've got to shrink it to 40 feet. You can carry a pay load of 30 thousand pounds , on one stretch of L S. highway but a mile down the line your total load is limited to IS thousand pounds. The same highway. The sme roadbed nmj construction. Ttut totally different load limits! That means re-loading or re-routing or not operating at all. Hundrcdsof conflicting regulations on insurance, licenses, operating fees, mileage fees complete the confusion. For the "duration" a lot of these laws have been suspended -to at gasoline, tires, manpowcr-and to boost war production, a frank admission on every Ixxly's part that such laws arc seriously wasteful. But w hen peace comes, these laws automatically gn back on the books again. The cost comes out of every citizen's pocket. So, here's what a good many people are asking these days, "Mr. Roosevelt, do you favor removal of state trade barriers? How about you, Mr. Dewey?" An expression of your views will be highly ap preciated by our state governments. The American Trucking Industry. American Trucking Associa tions, Inc., Washington, D. C fT- IS t EE Tv
