ROAD AND RAIL TRAFFIC.
Conference of Parties may Discuss Differences. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. RUGBY, March 9. Competition between road and rail transport was referred to by the Minister of Transport, Mr P. J. Pybus, at the luncheon of the Commercial Motor Users’ Association. He said that there was a general feeling that the heavy goods traffic situation called for some definite policy by the Government. Mr Pybus said he believed, if the problem was approached in a co-opera-tive spirit, that differences could be narrowed down. He proposed to call a conference of railway and road transport representatives, and to suggest to them that they should appoint a group of five to seven people, with an impartial chairman, to report their considered views on the proper functions of railway and road.
