Cooper Draws Hos

executive of New Hanover's city
by-the-sea wasn't even invited to
welcome or to address. Throughout
the two days of the session he was
conspicuous by his absence; and al
| though there was adopted no official
or even semi-official, condemnation
of his plan only completely deaf
man could fail to overhear the barb
ed references to Cooper and his ideas.
The truckers viewed the Cooper
suggestions as another move of the
railroads to stifle competition from
highway transportation agencies.
They resented it bitterly and made
no bones about the fact that the
thousands of truck drivers who come
into contact with almost every form
of business in the State are going to
be welded into a powerful unit in
opposition to Cooper's gubernatorial
aspirations.
Copies, or at least what appeared
to be authentic copies, of the e>Coopcr
letter in which the light traffic plan
was broached were distributed "a
mong the convention delegates and
visitors and the reaction to the letter
was unanimously hostile and bitter.
In the letter, written to an At
lantic Coast Line conductor, Cooper,
at least inferentially, advocated pro-
hibitiOn Of highway use by all ve-
hicles which with their cargoes weigh
more than 10000 pounds. The pres
ent North Carolina law permits gross
weights up to 10000 pounds.
1t was pointed out that there are
only two states in the Union which
limit weight of vehicle and cargo tc
less than 10000 pounds, gross.
In his letter, Cooper suggested that
the governor call the Highway Con
missioners together and have them
designate certain or all highways a.
light traffic roads,"
"T h e highway commissioners
should ascertain, as an illustration,
the weight of gasoline truck carry
ing a cargo of, say, 1000 gallons OF
gasoline, and if such truck and cargo
should, as an example, weigh ten
tons then class all highways as light
traffic highways for all trucks carry
ing ten tons or over.
''My understanding is that the
Highway Commission has the power
to designate any and all highways
as light traffic highways / be-
lieve that the Honorable Frank
Spruill is general counsel for the At
lantic Coast Line in Rocky Mount,
and I suggested you take this mat
ter up with him and ascertain his
views.
"My personal opinion is that these
hazardous gasoline trucks should be
removed from the highways of North
Carolina, and if 1 can be of any as
sistance to you or your friends at
any time do not hesitate to call upon,
me as any service I can render will
be rendered most gladly and without
a charge"
Truck owners were particularly
caustic in reference to the mayors
generosity" in offering his services
without charge, wondering what
charges Mayor Cooper could conceiv-
ably make in connection with the
assistance he might be called on
to render the railroads.
