MOTOR Law VOID
No Occupation Tax For Haul,
ing Passengers.

The conviction Of Frank Crosson
and j. F. Koll for violations of Idaho
statutes by operating motor vehicles
as common carriers and taking pas
sengers and freight for hire without
obtaining licenses, was reversed nv
the supreme court last Saturday.
The defendants were engaged in
motor transportation, tax.cab service
and as freight hauler by motor trucks.
Sections 2439. and 2440, compiled
statutes of Idaho, require common
carriers as defined in Section 1880 to
pay to the state annual license fees
not for the use Of highways but as 10
occupation tax. The latter section
defines as such common carriers
persons who operate vehicles to trans.
port passengers aoi freight for hire.

HAS BUILT BOAT OF PLASTER
Oregon Man Seems to Have Made
Good on New Theory of Mate
rial for Vessels.

II boats can be made of concrete
there seems no inherent reason why
they cannot be made of plaster. In
fact, an inventor in Portland, Ore,
Mr.. j. B. Lindberg, has actually made
a plaster boat.
His boat is 15 feet long and weighs
400 pounds. It's sides are three-quar-
ters of an inch thick, and very strong
although only made of ordinary build
ing plaster. The boat is cheaper than
a wooden one, and the inventor be-
iieves it will last longer. It's advan-
taSe over concrete craft is mainly
that of llghtness.
The construction is also much cas-
Ter, Mr.. Lindberg says, since the plas-
ter requires an inner and an outer
form to much less extent than the
concrete. In large part this Hgntor
material can be laid down over sin
gle form, much like series of coats
OF paint. Mr.. Lindberg's boat has been
put In commission and seems to be
quite seawOrthy and easily handled.
