TRANSPORT LOW
LICENSES FOR CARRIERS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION URGED (By Telegrann.—Press Association) WELLINGTON, Friday The commissioner of transport, Mr G. L. Laurenson, stated today that the recent amendment to transport legislation means that a license under the Transpot Act is required by all taxis, town carriers and certain ancillary users, that is, business firms who use their own vehicles for the conveyance of their own goods. In the case of ancillary users the license will be required by those operators who use trucks that weigh more than two tons laden over routes that include not less than 30 miles of Government railway. Farmers and market gardeners are, however, exempt. Applications for licenses will not be required from taxi operators in Thames, Hamilton, Taumarunui and Christchurch who have already been licensed under the Transport Act. The lodging of applications for licenses is a matter of urgency, and operators are advised that It is in their own interests to give this matter immediate attention.
