Further discontent with the working of the North-Western Conciliation Beard was expressed at a C.M.U.A. meeting at Warrington, on Monday. Resolutions urging the reconstruction of the Board have already been passed by the Crewe and Macclesfield branches.
• Warrington, in its resolutions, goes farther, urging that the Minister of Transport should be approached with a view to the Area Boards being altered to comprise only elected members, who would be compelled to retire (with the option of offering themselves for ieelection) at regular intervals. The hope was expressed that the NorthWestern Board might resign en bloc. This, it was suggested, would pave the way for the election of representative members from A.R.O. and C.M.U.A.
A hot-pot supper will be held by the branch at Warrington on February 29.

A.R.O. Strength Increased. • The Isle of Wight and Morecambe Associations have decided to link up with A.R.O. In the Isle of Wight, a joint board, with a hauliers' section, is being formed; steps are being taken to eet up an ancillary users' section.
