I. A. A. RECORD— December, 1933 



Plan New Regulation 



of Buses and Trucks 



M 



Farmers Hauling For Hire 



Would Come Under The 



Proposed Act 



A new motor carrier law has been 

 prepared by the Illinois Commerce 

 Commission to license and regulate 

 motor truck and bus operators, also 

 contract haulers. It will probably be 

 introduced in a special session of the 

 General Assembly. 



Under the proposed law the com- 

 mission would have power and author- 

 ity, and the duty, to supervise and 

 regulate every motor bus and truck 

 hauling for hire in Illinois, to fix or 

 approve rates, fares, charges, etc. and 

 to establish rules and regulations per- 

 taining thereto. 



Each regular motor carrier would 

 be required to obtain a permit and to 

 submit to the regulations of the com- 

 mission. 



The commission would have full 

 power and authority, and the duty, to 

 supervise and regulate all "contract 

 haulers" which would include farmers 

 or others who contract to haul live- 

 stock, grain, fruit and vegetables and 

 other farm products for hire. The bill 

 would not apply to farmers who haul 

 their own products. 

 : •: The motor carrier would be required 

 to pay a $20 application fee and con- 

 tract haulers would be required to pay 

 a fee of $10. 



In addition to all other taxes and 

 license fees a tax would be imposed 

 upon motor carriers, interstate car- 

 riers, and contract haulers at the rate 

 of one mill per ton mile of travel. 



Each motor carrier or contract 

 hauler also would be required to file 

 with the commission a sworn state- 

 ment and a security, indemnity or 

 bond guaranteeing the payment by 

 such carrier of damages resulting 

 from accidents due to the negligent 

 use or operation of the vehicle. 



The I. A. A. was represented by G. 

 W. Baxter at a hearing on the bill in 

 Chicago Nov. 6. A further hearing 

 was set for Nov. 20. The I. A. A. legal 

 department is studying the proposed 

 legislation and will participate in fur- 

 ther hearings. 



Substitution of dolomitic limestone 

 for sand as filler in mixed and nitrog- 

 enous fertilizers which contain acid- 

 forming ammonium salts, helps to pre- 

 vent the harmful increase of acidity 

 in many soils that are already too acid, 

 according to the U. S. Bureau of 

 Chemistry and Soils.
