The Truck Ban Argument At City Hall Goes Onand On

Now it’s running around in the

Board to prohibit trucks on these streets. Board members speculated on the Btate of affairs if of North Side streets were banned té trucks. Then Mr. Morris made his recommendation, “I think ‘it’s’ just abominable— this situation of keeping trucks off some streets and permitting them the use of a few small ones.” He proposed that trucking be permitted on all streets except Meridian St., 38th St. and Westfield Blvd. It was agreed to submit the idea to City Council.

Here's the Setup

Last year’s ordinance prohibited all trucking on Meridian St., 38th St., Westfield Blvd. and Washington Blvd. Unless they get a 50-cent license from the City, local delivery trucks of more than a ton and onehalf cannot use: Illinois St. from 40th St. to Westfield Blvd.; College Ave. from Ninth St. north to City limits; Central Ave. frori Ft. Wayne Ave. to Westfield Blvd.; Capitol AVE. from 16th St. to Westfield Blvd.; Pennsylvania St. from 16th St. to Westfield Blvd., and Boulevard Place and Broadway from 38th St. to Westfield Blvd. |

tiations got down to brass tacks. «As airlines develop, representatives of the lines said, they should yield more and more - revenue to Municipal Airports. But on the basis of present operations, the rate increase proposed by the city “is’ just a little too steep” airline. officials said. Both sides agreed that today’s conference was the preliminary to a series of negotiation sessions which may last several months before a rate-increase is agreed upon. | Representing the airlines using the airport were Reed Landis, vice president of American Airlines; Leslie P.
