In regard to the charge that rocks
haul. 10 Increase the weight Mayor
Bransford laughed at it as the crea
ton of some Imaginative mind who
could not have the least information
on the actual conditions.
Some of these reporters" lie said
"who seem to think rock is being haul
| ed ought to 20 out to the garbage de-
pot and watch the wagons unload. They
Jump INTO n tIlule through winch the
| load Is thrown into the fiat ears I'M
| derneath. The weight of each wagon
| is known. and the weight of its driver
so he can't even make anything by
| Weighing in with his load The scales
| work automatically and they are lock-
| ed. so that any driver by pressing the
| button for the number assigned to him
| secures automatically the weight of his
load and himself, less the weight of
his wagon and himself. As the debris
falls onto the fiat cars. It is spread out
by AN Inspector. whose special duty is
to look for cobble stones on anything
having no proper part I'm the load The
! discovery of such material would he
| Immediately reported and action would
be taken to punish the driver, either
through his discharge or the subtrac-
ton of the added weight from his al
lowance SO far no complaints have
come in"
