NEWS OF THE LEGISLATURE I
TRUCK WEIGHT
IS BIGPROBLEM
Until It Is Settled Construc
tion May Be Somewhat
Retarded
Not until , some agreement is
reached on what legislation is to be
passed regulating the size and weight
of motor trucks in Pennsylvania, can
any steps be taken by the State High
way Department towards the build
ing or reconstruction of permanent
trunk line highways. The whole
question confronting the road en
gineers is "how much weight must
we make the roads to carry."
The present law carries a maxi
mum weight regulation of 24,000
pounds, but the truck associations
of the State are endeavoring to have
this weight regulation increased to
28,000 or 30,000 pounds. Not one of
the various interests that ar e anx
ious to get a model motor vehicle law |
for Pennsylvania seem to have any
settled opinions on the limits that I
should be placed on the trucks which
ar e dally becoming more numerous
on the highways.
During the past administrations |
of the Highway Department the
roads have been built with founda-1
tions of five inches on the sides and
seven inches In the center, but under
the plan to carry 24.000 pound traf
fic the new specifications call for
6 Inches on the side and eight inches
of foundation in the center of rein
forced roads and for seven inches
side and nine-inch foundation in the
center of plain roads. The heavy
truck traffic has been found to be
too severe on the former foundations
and new standards have been adopt
ed, but no step forward can be
taken if the weight of .trucks is to
be increased by the Legislature. The
weight of the trucks is going to
figure In th e cost of all highway
construction of a permanent nature
and if this weight is increaseckabove
24,000 pounds the depth of founda
tions will have to be materially in
creased. adding to all items of con
struction.
The truck people also desire legis
lation permitting trucks of 96 inches
in width instead of 90 inches and
truck lengths of 28 feet instead of
20 feet. There is considerable op
position to these increases as the
majority of roads are but sixteen
feet wide and it would be difficult
and dangerous in many places for
eight foot wide trucks to pass each
other. The long sweep around a
curv e by trucks of great length Is
also given as an objection to in
creasing the length.
There has been some talk among
members of the Legislature to In
crease th e speed limit in open country
to thirty-five miles an hour, and to
rigidly enforce this provision, but
the general concensus of opinion is
thS4 a limit of thirty miles an hour
will probably be decided upon. This
will increase the speed from the
present mark of 24 miles an hour.
Another suggestion that will likely
receive favorable consideration by
the lawmakers will be to mak e every
one exceeding the speed limit finally
adopted, responsible for accidents
without consideration of negligence.
Th e stolen car evil has caused the
introduction of a number of bills in
both branches of the Legislature
regulating sales of motor vehicles
and placing upon all public garage
owners certain requirements in the
way of records that will enable po
lice to readily locate stolen automo
biles. Soye garage owners are ob
jecting strenuously to making the
records required in some of the bills
but it is almost certain that some
Legislation will be enated that will |
require records to be kept of the car i
and engine numbers of all motor ve
hicles coming into their hands for
storage or repairs. When there are
any signs that show mutilation, of
any numbers or attempt to mutilate
numbers immediate notice must be
furnished to police departments.
Other proposed bills propose heavy
fines and imprisonments to have in
possession or operate any motor ve
hicle from which car or engine num
ber have been eliminated.
There are two bills regulating
truck weights and widths, fixing
license fees and carrying general
motor vehicle regulations before the
Legislature, one measure introduced
by Senator Buckman and another in
troduced by Representative W. H.
Dtthrich, of Allegheny county. The
Dithrich bill has had a hearing be
fore the House committee on Public
Roads where a number of amend
ments were suggested and it will
likely make its appearance on the
calendar during the week.

Problems of how to care for horse

is of importance to agricultural and
other counties yet it is not a general
State wide proposition and the feel
ing is that it should be in the hands
of local authorities. Some of the
delegations from near cities hav e de
clared that such arrangements are
essential if the horses are to be saved
while among men from other counties
it has been pointed out that often
parallel roads are available for horse
traffic. Officials of one large
county said that spaces for horse
drawn vehicles were essential in one
end of this county, but not in another
section.
The attention of the Legislature
was first drawn to the serious nature
of the subject In a bill presented by
Representative John R. K. Scott, of
Philadelphia, providing that "a dirt
or other road of* some rough mater
ials suitable for horse travel" must
be constructed beside State roads
when there is not enough space on
th e improved highway. Mr. Scott
said that valuable farm animals were
being lost constantly by falling on
the smooth surfaces of modern im
proved roads. Robert T. M. Mc
, Cready, of Edgworth, has sent a bill
for another solution of the problem
to Senator William E. Crow.
The Edgeworth man's bill calls
upon th e people in charge of high
ways to consider the kind of traffic
and "to use such care and Judgment
with regard to the kind and character
of the surface adopted, used and
maintained, and the manner and con
dition in which they are constructed
and maintained, as an ordinarily pru
dent man would use in the conduct
of his own affairs of like nature." He
would provide a space for horses on
each side of a State road which would
,be -six feet wide.
