SUBURBAN NEWS. THE EVENING 110 ‘TOBACCO HAULERS T0 FIGHT ARRESTS Crain Hifihway Action Illeg'al,. Say Defendants, Who Plan Mass Meeting. By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. UPPER MARLBORO, Md, August| 23.—Aroused over what they consider the illegal arrest of tobacco haulers over | Crain Highway, the tobacco raisers and haulers of Southern Maryland have arranged to hold a protest meeting at | the courthouse at Marlboro next Tues- | day night. i The arrests have been made on the | Crain Highway in Anne Arundel County by State police who have been in- structed by the commissioner of motor vehicles to require men who haul the tobacco for hire to have public service commission tags. Inasmuch as the commission has already given _the | charter to a Tidewater concern, it is impossible for the haulers to get such tags, according to J. F. Lillard, their attorney. Lillard says that the farmers get one man who has a truck to haul tobacco for the others, who pay him. The con- cern which has the charter from the public service commission runs but one truck a day between Solomon's and Baltimore, it is said. | Among those arrested was Herbert Smith, driver for George Jackson of Upper Marlboro. Smith was fined $5 in an Anne Arundel court, but appealed | the case. Several other similar cases | also are pending in Anne Arundel | courts. i | The tobacco men held a preliminary meeting at Marlboro last Tucsday night at which a committee was appointed to arrange for next wes s meeting.
