Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

The completion of the merger between A.R.O. and the C.M.U.A. was referred to by Major the Hon. Eric Long, J.P., T.D., at the annual dinner of the Eastern Area of A.R.O., at Norwich, last week. For some time efforts had been made to attain this end, said Major Long, and the result showed that real unity had at last been achieved.

Transport services were essential to the national welfare, and the present high rate of taxation was crippling the industry. The merger meant that road operators now constituted a fighting force.

Mr. H. J. Lloyd, chairman of the area, presided, and other speakers were Mr. H. E. Witard, Mr. II. Pointer, Mr. C. F. Watling and Mr. F. "Sullen.

Although entirely unofficial, it will be the first address to be given by him under the combined aegis of A.R.O. and the C.X.U.A.
