Show AUTO TRUCKS ARE CAUSE OF PROTEST Special to The Tribune. OGDEN, July 24.The alleged operation of large auto trucks with trailers through Ogden canyon, with seenting disregard of the safety of the traveling public, is the basis ot a vigorous protest mailed to the board of county commissioners today by Joseph S. Feery. The immediate action by the board of commissioners by having a deputy sheriff patrol the canyon road and arrest Lhe violators of the traffic laws, is asked for in the protest. In His communication to the commissioners commis-sioners Mr. Peery refers to a number of incidents, where probably serious injury to presons and the damage of much property, prop-erty, were prevented only by the presence pres-ence of mind and coolness on the- part of individuals. Several complaints against the alleged reckless driving of the large trucks as well hh some of 'the pleasure cars have been made by not only people from this city and county, but from Salt Lake and other towns of the state. |
