The Southern California Lumrber Seasoning Association wishes to thank rthe following.Memrber companies for makins this meeting possible: extremely harmful to the mills in California situated as ours is, and the trucks, water carriers and kindred lines such as the sale of gasoline, diesel, tires, trucks, etc. We know from having.operated trucks at one time ourselves, that the pres- ent existing rate in California without back-haul iJ not profitable and there is not enough back-haul available to srpply the individual truckers. The new rate would put them completely out of business.

I think that for the protection of the interested people in California, of whom there are thousands, this decrease in rate should be prohibted.
