NEW YORK LIMITS TRUCK
SIZES

In connection with West Virginia
night against motor trucks the lcGis-
lat,ve steps being taken In New York
on the same subject are interest \
few weeks ago leaders Of the New YORK
legislature had virtually decided to
make the taxes SO high for trucks OF
Ave tons and over that they would be
taxed OF the roads At that time II
was contended that this was the only
legal method by which the trucks could
be regulated
Since then tho New Workers appaT-
ently have gone deeper into the subject.
The taxation plan has been abandoned
and Albany dispatches OF last Saturday
state that the administration has de-
cdcd TO pass law prohibiting I'll" use
Of heavy trucks outside OF cities. I'm
ccpt in cities the limit will hc seven
and nno-halt tons capacity. TaX"S on
All cars viii be raised So that til" pro-
Goods will pay the entire cost OF main
,cnanCc OF the highways.
New York has far better highways
than West Virginia. II the Empire
State, with roads capable OF resisting
the effects OF heavy loads much better
than ours, finds that trucks must be
limited 10 capacity OF $4,000 pounds.
our law permitting Il total weight OF
80. 600 pounds appears decidedly liberal
Despite. this fact. a number Of our
truck owners believe that they shoT'd
be permitted 20 carry a load Of 10000
mounds IN addition to the weight "f the
truck. In view OF the New York limit
Of l5.NnO on roads almost all as good as
our city streets. this looks decidedly un-
reasonable.

Lawson Robertson. the Penn coach. ..

hand to win the meet in New York.
After the relays Robbie stated that his
veterans were in top form and that he
was afraid that several of them might
go stale. In order 10 prevent this he
decided not to double up Eby in the
quarter and the half. to keep Bob
Maxam out of the quarter and to keep
Larry Brown on the sidcinCs. After
Browns brilliant performances in the
relays Robbie decided TO give him a
we'll deserved rest. If he had been
started in the mile against Higgins. the
Columbia star. his form for the inter-
collcgiates might have been given a rude
jolt.
How well Robortson'S doping proved
true is evidenced by the score. Eby
could have won the half mile in addi-
tion 10 the quarter and the Red and
Blue would have gone out in front
Of the other two contendcrs by much
more than two-thirds of point. The
worst Larry Brown could have done
in the mile was second with Irwin. who
did finish second third. This would
have added more points. Maxam could
hav" scored in the $40 and the 300. but
instead hc finished second to Harold
Lever in the 100 and won the 22O.
Lever proved that his long layoff
from competition because of his in =
eligibility did not harm him by his
victory in the century which was done
in 10 10 seconds. In the 900. the New
York lad ran close second to Bob
