TO RAISE TRUCK LICENSE
State Highway Commission Proposes
Increase in Fees.

State Highway Commission Proposes
Increase in Fees.
Motor trucks larger than seven-ton
capacity will not be allowed on Kan
sas roads in the future if the State
Highway Commission has its way
about it. A prohibitive license fee for
trucks of more than seven tons will
be recommended to the next legisla-
ture by the commission. All motor
vehicles, regardless of size, now pay
an annual license of So a year.
with the rapid increase in the
number of motor trucks on the high
ways and the increased difficulty and
expense of upkeep on improved high
ways" said M. w. Watson. state high
way engineer, 'it is becoming ever
more apparent that adequate laws
should be enacted regulating the
weight and speed of motor traffic.
"A large number of states have al
ready passed some kind of laws for
the regulation of this class of traf-
fic, making it still more important that
Kansas should protect the roads of
the state from the larger class of We
hicles which are being manufactured
and which undoubtedly will be dis
posed of in this state as they are pro-
hibited in other states.
1t is not economical to spend vast
sums of money in the construction of
highways that will withstand the traf-
fic from the maximum sized trucks
that can be manufactured by motor
truck companies. 1t is not the duty
of the state to maintain railway lines
for this class of vehicles. If it is
deemed necessary to operate trucks,
carrying extremely heavy loads, they
should be operated upon toll roads
built and paid for by the company
operating them. and not by the public.
IAN oil truck has been known to
do more damage to our earth high
ways after a single rain than can be
repaired with an expenditure of 5000
to $500. while they are required to
pay only IS year for license. Roads
that with ordinary loads should give
service for years have been DESTROYED
in few months with excessive loads. y

cession from the Union.
As president. Lincoln disappointed
the abolitionists and the more rabid
opponents of the South. He waited
until he believed that there was armed
resistance to the federal laws, but
when this crisis came acted promptly
and effectively. The long conflict fol-
lowed and belongs to history.
Ever since those days Lincoln's
fame has been growing, and the best
students agree that his was the broad
est statesmanship and the wisest brain
of all tested in those troubled times.
More and more the country has come
to see that he best understood the
problems and best solved them. His
assassination was a blunder for which
the country, both North and South.

uments. his state papers, reveal a
greater man as they are studied more
deeply, and today the leaders Of
thought. both North and South. pay
to his memory due need of reverence.
