Fraudulent Trucking Practices in Live Stock Shipments `For some time rumors had reached the Pr'ovincia'l Department Of Agri culture suggesting unfair practices by certain •truckers carrying live stock. These became soinsistent, a quiet in i-estigation was m'ad'e by G. Duncan, Ontario' Marketing Board, to ascertain actual conditions with the result that the occurrences complained of, instead. of being isolated and far apart, were found to be rather general in a large section of the province, Fartners have been defrauded of sums varying from $20 to $450 he one 'trantsaction, 'The common method of duping fanners is by truckers issuing worthless .cheques. Aeo'ther, is to retain val•ious sums ranging from $20 to $1100 from the proceeds of the day's sale of live stock. Excuses offered by truckers in these 'in'stance's are many; the most coalman being that the stock has not been said, or that the stoney was needed ear repairs to the truck and always the promise is made .to, pay the balance the follo'w-ing week, Sever- al instances of this `prom'ise 'to pay' leave extend'e'd from 19•.30 to the .pre- sent date. "These' conditions reflect en the le- gitimate trucker who, in most cases, is, unaware of this serious inenace to his -business. Usually the .first move is to cut rates per 100 pounds of cat- tle shipped in order to Increase vol- ume. Eventually these reduced rates 'become less than the cost of operat- ing and then pilfering commences. Farmers would be well advised to;.em- ploy only truckers who are known to be reliable."
