’—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISB
THURSDAY. JULY 9, 1959
Open Saturday
Mill City, Ore.
Sheild.- ReMine was host Wednes­
day night to his crew of truckers,
his engineers and loaders and a few
other guests at a buffet dinner at
The Last Frontier at Gates.
In his opening remarks ReMine
stated the purpose of the meeting
was to give his crew members a
chance to understand each others
problems better. Main purpose he sa.d
was to haul “bigger loads legally”.
Walter W. Wellard, weighmaster
who most of the loggers know, as he
is in the we’ghing station between
Gates and Mill City, was introduced
and told his job was to see that the
law was enforced. He said he did
not make the laws. In his remarks he
-aid fhat many times with proper
loading many more board feet could
be hauled in each load, Sometimes
when loads come in they are out of
balance, which
causes excessive
weight on one axle and the other axle
may be well within the law. They were
also warned about too much over­
hang on loads. Many times as much
as 500 feet more per load could' be
hauled if loaded properly. Mr. Well­
ard stated however, logger? in this
area were doing a good job. The
truckers have reduced their viola-
tions by 90% in recent months.
Ralph Sipprell, director of permits
for the h.ghway department spoke
briefly about thework of his depart­
ment. He -aid that possibly the per­
mits would be changed in the near
future, however most of the regula­
tions about weights and lengths would
remain mu h the same as they are
now. He also stressed the importance
