DOCTOR NOT WANTED.

When I first began to drive a car

the Blue Book" along, as l am ma

On one occasion, when I had my

ity. This naturally results in . loss
Of tonnage and Increased costs. It has
been said that 70 per cent of the motor
trucks operating in the United States
during 1918 travelled empty one way.
From these figures it was estimated
there was capacity waste Of 2sS,6oo.-
900 tons during the year.
with the establishment of highway
transportation commissions in the
various states and the organization OF
transportation bureaus In many OF our
cities this tonnage waste is being elm
mated.
TRUCK FIRMS ASSOCIATE.
I'm several cities the haulage con-
Germs have formed associations and
have established central offices from
which the motor truck transportation
activities of that particular commun-
ity are directed. These associations are
affiliating with associations in near
by cities in order to further decrease
the possibility of idle trucks and light
return loads and to increase the gen
eral efficiency of the service
1.-THE motor truck actually has be-
come a public utility in many local
ties. Entire communities are depend
ing upon it as a means of supply. 1t
has become equally as essential as
the railroad and waterway.
ITO obtain maximum efficiency the
transportation units of the country
the railway, waterway and highway
should be linked up Systematically.
More highways should be built, the
present highways improved and a
greater number of motor express lines
touching those sections not reached by
either rail or water. should be created.
That such a system would have i'm
pcrtant bearing upon reducing the cost
of living essentials is apparent Avail
able government figures show that in
1919 the cost of shipping by truck
throughout the country was from 10
to 80 cents per ton mile lower than
the cost by horse drawn vehicles. One
can at least imagine what this will
amount to in a year.
Speakers before a recent conven-
ton of retail and wholesale grocers in
Toledo voiced the opinion that their
hope of reducing prices lay in the mo-
tor truck. Practically an entire ses-
sion of the convention was devoted to
this phase of the transportation prob
lem, which they deemed highly re-
sponsible for the present high costs
"One speaker. an officer of the gro
GERS organization, declared that the
motor truck held the actual solution
to the problem.
This recognition of the motor truck
as transportation factor, coming
from men who analyze and understand
conditions governing the markets is
noteworthy and should be taken as
convincing proof of its worth"

where nothing is left in homes, doors

beds and linen are taken by the mobs.
Through lack Of funds soup kitchens
