Protest Over Freight Transfer Application Faces 17 New Castle Firms
In Pittsburgh on June 15, 17 New Castle certified transportation firms protested John A. Jones of New Castle seeking permission to transfer freight in the area and haul household goods to distant points. The duel held back outside New Castle after Jones agreed to limit operations to the city and nearby townships. Protests, heard by Charles Young for the New Castle Certified Operators Association, argued the service is unnecessary and would worsen conditions. Witnesses cited current business as insufficient for the prevailing firms, while Jones urged need for long distance moves.
