Fight on Truck'
Limit Under Way
AUSTIN, Jan.'38 -07- Doon
opened today for the first round in
what might be one of the top bat-
tles of the legislature—truck load
limit legislation.
Olven emergency status by Gov-
ernor W. Lee O'Daniel, the subject
was set for hearing at a night ses-
sion of the Senate highways and
motor transportation committee.
As battle lines formed here was
the setup, calculated to rattle the
committee room rafters with or-
atory:
Governor O'Daniel recommended
doubling the present 7,000-pound
net load limit.
Already on the committee’s calen-
dar when the governor sent tn his
emergency recommendation was a
bill by Senator Rogers Kelley of
Edinburg regulating weight on a
gross basis and legalizing net loads
up to about 35,000 pounds.
Smaller maxima would sometimes
apply to trucks by application of
a sclentinc formula.
No one introduced a bill embody-
ing the chief executive's recom-
mendation and Kelley took the po-
sition the hearing was wide open
to any load limit proposal
I The governor labeled the Kelley
i bill too fancy to achieve immediate
i success.

AUSTIN. Jan The way I
was cleared by the Senate today for j
early consideration of a proposal to,

Senator Clem Fain of Livingston, '
author of the bill, got a 29 to 1 j
vote approving suspension of a con-1

committee to act on the proposal as
quickly aa passible.
