Abstract
No longer does the trucking industry have only to fulfill its multi-fa ceted role as an established essential element of the nation's highly competitive socio-economic structure. Trucking must now also demonstra te just how much additional mettle it has in successfully dealing with the kaleidoscopic demands of today's fast emerging global economy. He lping to shed light on how the trucking industry is going to rise to t his herculean task is Thomas J. Donohue, President and Chief Executive Officer of the American Trucking Associations for the past ten years. Tom points the way on how the next ten years should be addressed and, in typical fashion, zeros in on the issues involved in no nonsense fa shion. The U.S. Congress, as is often the case, is the starting point of Tom's broad action plan. We are indebted to him for his gracious ac ceptance of our invitation to the Q&A session.
