Oil Controller . . and he presented the following res- olution which ;was endorsed unan- imously by Paisley' council; "That this municipal council of the village of .Paisleyrespectfully calls attention of the Oil Control- ler of Canada to the enormous waste :of .gasoline through the vast con- sumptian of 'fuel by the many beer` trucks.. operating ;on,, alI the high- ways. The customer of these trucks is ' the, provincial golrerninent, and the people, of• the Dominion own the railroads,. so that we feel that if ,the breweries were -compelled to. ship theirproducts by rail, there .would not only be a huge saving of gaso- line forwar purposes, but the rev- enues accruing ..to tile' railways would be greatly increased. Be it resolved that copies of this motion be sent to ,the municipal councils 61 Bruce and Grey counties, with the request for similar action in.pre- senting the protest to the Dominion Oil Controller, George D.
