Federal Election Is Seen Almost Certain June 10?.

SAINT JOHN, NJ. (CP)-The president of the Canadian Truck- ing Association. said Saturday night the organisation is consider- ing recommending inclusion of liar-iurng truck operators within the Maritime Freight Rates Act for subsidy purposes.

Curtis Bonnyman oi Moncton. addressing the annual convention of the Maritime Motor Transport Association. said "the oblect would he to equalize competitive conditions between rail and truck in the Atlantic provinces so far as federal legislation is concerned." resenting all major trucking fl.. Mr- Bonnyman said CTA. rep- resenting all major trucking firms across Canada. has been studying Maritime trucking ya tlcms for many months. It would help the Maritime Motor Transport Asso- ciation in submitting a comprehen- sive brief at the forthcoming fed- eral government inquiry into At- lantic provinces transporta- tion yi blems.

It might be, said Mr. Bonnyman, that inclusion oi truckers in the Maritime Freight Rate Act was not the answer. Studies were not yet complete. But the fact re- mained that the act gave the rail-

ways a 30-per-cent subsidy on rail traffic moving out of the Atlantic region west to Canadian points and a 20-per-cent subhldy on lo- cal rail traffic moving within the Atlantic provlncca.

YEAII. OF DECISION

"It will probably come as a sur- prise to no one that one thing we are looking at very carefully is the possibility and practicability of bringing Maritime truck oper- ators wlthin the Maritime Freight Rates Act for subsidy purposes."

However, CTA studies were not yet at the stage where draft pro- posals could he put before the Maritime Motor Transport Asso- elation.

"Furthermore. action under the -Maritime Freight Rates Act may not be the approrpriate means of equalizing competitive conditions under federal legislation-r--M al- ternative course of action. under federal legislation. could be adop- ted to give recognlt' to the posi- tion of the Maritime trucking in- dustry."

With the federal inquiry into At- lantic transportation 1057 would prove a "year of decision" for the

Maritime trucking industry.

requests have been sent to e dominion government from other parts of Canada. Mr. Jestln said. because it has become in- creasingly difficult for small mer- chants to get bank loans with- out collateral. The loans probably would be no higher than 815.000 and would be lined for improving premises and Cooling new buildings. The asso- ciation will ask for lower interest rates than the present W: per cent. The government would make the money available to banks for the retailer. Mr. Jesiin said.
