Operations Of Firm Blocked By Eastern Railroads
The R. D. Fowler Motor Lines of High Point faces a temporary block under the Federal Motor Carrier Act after eastern railroads told the Interstate Commerce Commission the company lacks grandfather rights. The ICC had earlier tentatively approved the line on January 21, 1938, for interstate transport of various commodities. Railroads oppose retroactive operation, arguing the firm was not in service before June 1936, moving yarns furniture bottles and empty barrels to and from High Point.
