Captain Lanning teceived word | for this purpose. Take a construction crew whose total wages are $35.00 per eight-hour day. The usual travel time of a horse-drawn vehicle in this kind of work averages two hours per day. Therefore the pro- ductive time per day on the job is eight hours, minus two hours, ° which equals six hours. If a motor truck is used, the same distance can be covered easily in one-half hour. Thus productive time on the job would be eight hours, minus one-half hour, or seven and one-half hours. The productive hours per day for the gang are thus increased from six to seven and one-half hours; or the gang, if using motor trucks, can accomplish in twelye days what would require fifteen days using a team. To prove this: 12 days at 7! hours equals 90 productive hours. 15 days at 6 Therefore the company gains by use of a motor truck three days in every fifteen, or the value of the time saved in the year (300 working days) $2,100.00. WHITE TRUCKS MAKE IT POSSIBLE White trucks, with their high degree of specialization, have made it possible for telephone companies to release thousands of men for war service. Before the advent of the truck with its power winch and compartment body, more man-power was needed because of delays experienced in getting to jobs, hauling small loads, hunting through boxes of parts for the piece of matcrial wanted, searching the floor of a horse-drawn wagon body to find a tool, effect of weather on the horses, etc. White trucks easily adapt themselves to each job and save from forty to eighty per¢ent of man-power. hours equals 90 productive hours.
