FROM OUR POLMCAL CORRESPONDENT
HUSH-HUSH talks between representatives of the Road Haulage Association and the Conservative M.P.s' backbench transport committee took place at the House of Commons on Wednesday. It is understood that a wide range of topics, political and commercial, were talked over, including British Railways' liner freight train plans and the future of licensing.
Meanwhile, Mr. David Webster, chairman of the committee, continues to seek the assistance of the Prime Minister in smoking out Labour policy regarding road transport. Following the latest instalment of the campaign in the House on Tuesday, when Mr. Wilson referred the Prime Minister to "Signposts for the Sixties ", I understand that further questions are to be tabled about a little-reported speech Mr. Wilson gave during a visit to America which he made last year.
The Prime Minister, like Mr. Webster, is now keenly interested in Labour road transport intentions. Sir Alec's own words on Tuesday were: "I hope he (Mr. Wilson) will make it quite clear what he does mean on the subject of nationalization of road transport."
