CHAIN ON TRUCK COMPULSORY Jimmy Maxwell, who is in charge of the Imperial Oil distributing sta- tion at Hanover, told us the other day that all trucks carrying gasoline .had a chain trailing from the bottom of the truck to the ground, in order to avoid danger from the static elec- tricity which is generated by the sway- ing of the liquid cargoe in transit. We had asked him why this was done because we read where a Toronto trucker had been fined at Orangeville because he didn't have this chain at the rear of the vehicle. The charge was laid by the Orangeville chief and resulted in a |25 fine. Jimmy tell* us that oil companies are very insist* ent that their drivers have this grounding chain on their trucks, and says that continual trailing on the ground will wear out a chain in no time. People have told him, he saya, that they have seen sparks fly from the chain as he travelled over the asphalt pavement here, and he saya that in filling undergrround tanks front a truck a ground connection is made. Trucks need this grounding because the rubber tires prevent electricity from going from the truck to the earth, and thus prevent the danger of explosion. We knew that trucks carrying gasoline were equipped witH this trailing chain, but this is the firsIS time we had a full explanation as to why it is done, or knew it to be against the law not to have a chain. â€" Hanover Post.
