SHOW DIFFERENCE ' BETWEEN MOTOR AND RAILHAULING Trucks Make Money Over Short Distances on Roads. NEW YORK. Aug. 20.—Sharp distinction between the job of the railroad and the motor truck is being drawn by transportation leaders in the testimony before the hearings of the Interstate Commerce Commission being held this summer in all part/ of the country, according to transcripts of the meetings published this week. The truck can make money whether giving a special service over short distances, while the railroad is unbeatable for bulk freight over the long haul, witnesses assert. Much of the testimony being given before the I. C. C. is familiar ground to those in the transportation business, but this recognition of the differences between the two facilities is being emphasized by all parties and by public officials with more clarity than ever before.

G. O. P. Leader Has Two Jobs

v :s -

Miss Mary Sleet h has two jobs now. Recently she was appointed head of the woman’s bureau of the Republican State committee, taking the place formerly held by Mrs. Vivian Tracy Wheat-craft. She also is the city librarian at Rushville.

MacDonald, Chief of Bureau of Public Roads and J. G. McKay, Chief of the Division of Highway Transport and Economics of this Bureau supports this view in the following conclusions. Tonnage Is Small 1. Motor truck transportation is primarily a, local distribution of goods, princiiyiHy food stuffs. 2 The of goods hauled over sixty miles is small. 3. Truck haulage is largely a di-

rect distribution of goods to their final use. 4. Long haul transposition. In excess of sixty miles is uspft.lly a movement of special commodities, household goods etc., depending upon speed of delivery or some special characteristic \of .the commodity shipped. 6. The owner-operator 1 hauls the bulk of highway tonnage. CLOSED SEASON TO PROTECTPLOVERS Greater and Lesser YellowLegs May Be Hunted.
