Trailers and Semi-Trailers.
You will note first tiiat the rate ns
given by the rate card for commer-
cial motor vehicles is in error. In
that the fee for trailers equipped
with iron, metal or other hard mate-
rial was inadvertently left out. This
fee should be 85c pet 100 pounds of
the net weight of vehicle plus it;

’’A trailer or semi-trailer drawn or
designed to be drawl? by a commer-
cial motor vehicle or tractor nhnll

A trailer is designed and intended
to carry property wholly upon its
own structure, having three or more
wheels, and to be towed by anothei
vehicle.
A semi-trailer is equipped with one
or two wheels and carries only part
of the load on Its own structure
whereas the remainder rest upon the
towing vehicle.

for a commercial motor vehicle based
upon its carrying capacity.
A truck with six wheels should be
i lassed as a commercial motor ve-
hicle and pay a fee according to Its
carrying capacity ar. rated by tho
manufacturer, unless two of its
wheels are detachable, in which case
it would be classed as a commercial
motor vehicle and semi-trailer, in
other words if the truck was design-
ed to have six wheels and to run upon
those six wheels at all times then it
is a commercial motor vehicle, other-
wise a commercial motor vehicle and
! sc-mi-trailer-subject to their rospec-
i live fees.
If the vehicle has six wheels, at.d
■ used for transporting passengers
: then the classification would depend
i again upon its make up. If it was
, originally designed with six wheels
and intended and used for the pur
pose of transporting passengers, then
it would be a "motor bus" and pay
the fee of a "motor bus." Hut if it
was originally a truck, which the
owner had cut down and attached
two more wheels on to the rear, and

which lias to do with commercial nto-

been asked will doubtless trouble
many tax collectors of the state in
i actual practice, and for that reason
we are getting out this letter answer-
ing the most common of these in-
quiries and which will most likely
give you trouble.
(ommercial Motor Vehicle.
First. Tlie definition of a commer-
cial motor vehicle is “Any motor ve-
i hide intended, designed or used for
; the traneportatlon of property.” You
| can see that the word "or" makes it
plain that it is not necessary for a
, vehicle to be a combination of these
' qualifications in order to come under
the class of ‘•commercial motor ve
Itlclos," but either of these qualifica-
tions would necessarily put them in
tliis class, for instance an owner of
ia two-ton truck desired to transform
! such truck into a inotorbus by 1-ut-
i ting seats in it or otherwise, he
! would still be subject to the license
I fee for a two-ton truck regardless of
litis fact because the truck was de-
I signed and intended for the trans-
1 portation of property. On the other
1 hand if a passenger car was trans-
■ formed into a truck by putting a lied
or body on it, and used for the trans-
portation of property it would like-
I wise come under the class of "com-
| mereial motor vehicle," because it is
tees. This is the most equitable and, carrying i opacity u le-- pay
teaeonablo means of classifying them; I cense fee bused upon the hm e
into consideration the fact ns for passenger cars
The term, used exclusively for agri-
cultural purposes, mu >t be construed
In its strictest sense, Hint is every
truck that litiuls an ear of corn nr
pound of cotton cannot get the ben-
efit of this reduced rate, which wa
passed for the benefit of tho farmer,
in the first place the truck must nee-
e.snrll? be operat'd on the farm,
used for carrying the products from
tho farm to market, unit provisions
from market to tho farm and such
other work ns is connected with the
farm.
This will not include these Mg
trucks used for hauling big load* ot
cotton from one place to another, ot
the denier who uses

to his customers, this would bo for
commercial purposes and could not
be construed to mean agricultural
purposes If n farmer uses his truck
tn the summer or any other time for
ether purposes than directly con-
nected with his farm, he would not
be entitled to the benefits of this re-
duced fee, that is, to say he used it
to haul rock for roads, or hired it
out it would m> longer be used ex-
clusively for agricultural purposes
and consequently not subejet to the
reduced fee.
