BAN ON SUNDAY TRUCKS URGED FINU, 3. SURVEY

Two of Every Three in U. S. Check Favor Action Against Freighters.

By DR. GEORGE GALLUP

Director, American Institute of Publie Opinion

PRINCETON, N. J., Dec. 19.—In case you get behind a string of motor trucks the next time you take a Sunday drive, you may be intrested to know that a large maJurity of Americans—whether they Own cars or not—would like to ban trucking from principal highways on Sundays and holidays.

The public's attitude on the motor truck situation is indicated today in a survey just completed by the American Institute of Puplic Opinion, which was conducted following a blast at the trucks by Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes.

Some States Have Acted

In reply to the Institute's ques-! tion approximately two of every] three with opinions on the question said “yes.” Sixty-seven per cent favored the ban. Secretary Ickes told a convention

But when the man addressed him, he was so flabbergasted he forgot to ask the man his name. “Man and boy,” the stranger said. “I've lived 11 miles from here for 75 years and this is the first time I've ever seen the river. I should have come sooner.” The workman hadn't recovered
