The effect of these changes is to
fix fees ranging from $10 for com
mercial trucks operating between
cities and towns having a carry Ins,
capacity of less than one and one
half tons, to $250 for commercial
trucks carrying six tons or more.
The city classification applies to
all trucks operating wholly within
a city or town or near the eitjr
limits. The farm truck classifica
tion limits the use of such trucks to
the transportation of the owners'
products or those of a neighbor in
exchange of service.
Senator Charles Allen of Cozad
attempted to insert an amendment
