The greater percentage of Rumanias oll compantesare foreign owned, largely by British and French. It was considered here that even a tclnlwrary intcrruptiorl in tlie flow of oll to Germany would be a heavy blow to her. The Reich liad intended to speed more than 1.000.000 tons monthly up the Danube to make up for transport difficulties experienced during the ivlnter months. The decree banning exports, is- sued bythe Government Economic Council under Premier Georges Tatarescu, voided all wheat con- tracts until further notice because of prospcctscf a crop failure. For- eign dellvorles 0i petroleum, coal and wood were stopped until ade- quate reserves are assured for tlie armfy and railroads. O all Rumania’: foreign buyers, gtémtflriy was by far the hardest; administration of the law relating to public vehicles had been "com- t-irit in refer- ‘4 lnlo that irn n ch lses, crnment g- paratively simple " Companies were given exclusive rights over certain sections of highways and had rr-ilcl cred good service.

He expkllned that t vehicles were ca ryiir; passer‘. s in competition willr the puilic vehicles although they were not. licensed for this particular work. He told of an official who had been sent out to get a conviction against this particular case of law breakinz. The official travelled as a passenger, paying ills fare. and observed the transactions and the character of the driver. When his report was turned in the driver ad- mitted that he had been driving a public vehicle. The Premier said that s. number of these drivers had voiced a pro- test against the convictions He declared “it is practically im- possible" for the Police to check up on all public vehicles as some were trucks operating on cream and freight routes and others were used to carry holiday crowds. He cited the need for an amend- ment to cover the situation and suggested a. compromise with the old act. Buses Not Safe Mr. MoIsaac said that. he was oi‘ at prcsc-nt in the Province were not safe for the travelling public. 'I‘licre is only one exit for passengers which was also for an en- trance to the vehicles. He cited the need for taking action in this mat- ter to protect the passenger m case of an accident. In nnsvrer to a question from Mr. McPhee, the Premier said that at present there were no franchises in existence as they were issued an- nually. Belief was expressed by Mr. Savillc that passengers were safer. ln some cases, in trucks than they were in buses. Premier Campbell the operators of bilses protested s.- rzuinst trucks carrying passengers They stated that. they could not comply with the rr-giraiions and compete with the trucks. he added. In answer to Mr, Saville. Mr. McPhee explained lhr~_t there was nothing in the Act. which revented trucks taking passengers special gatherings. In reference to the clause grant- ing franchises to trucks, Premier Campbell said that the problem may become more acute next. year owing u) llic operation of the Wood Islands car ferry. He favored the granting of exclusive rights to truck drivers 0n certain routes. He point- ed oilt that if this was not clone, rate cutting would prevail and the the matter would get out of con- ol. He stressed the need of "cautious experimentation" along these lines and added that "we should aim at franchises. He explained thnt if rate cutting on freight was per- mitted it would be linrlnful to ‘lie rnilrvayi and prevent. tlrcm render- int: good service in the patrolling oi Lcight.
