Congressional Action Would
End Chaos On Highways
Blu James T. Williams, Jr.

Thousands of Americans will
continue to pay with their lives
every year until the strong arm
of the Federal Government reg
ulates motor truck and motor
bus transportation on the high
ways North, East, South and
West.
The latest attempt at State
regulation by uniform laws has
Just failed at Harrisburg, Penn
sylvania. Sixteen States were
represented at a conference held
there under the auspices of the
American Legislators Association.
1t was attended by governors Of
some of the States, officers of
State legislatures, highway and
motor vehicle commissioners
and by a representative from
the United States Bureau Of Pub
lie Roads.
Another regional conference
Of State officials is scheduled
for Salt Lake City. Eleven West
ern States will send representa-
tives to that meeting.
The trouble is that just as this
country has 40 different bank
ing systems-one for each State
of the Union and one for ma
tional banks-so it has 40 diff
ferent systems for regulating
transportation-the Federal sys-
tenn, which applies to railroads
and 48 different State systems
which apply to motor trucks
and motor buses.
