Our price has been $1.50 for that dis- tance but we were going to take the lower rate on the pending agreement that in the near future other companies would raise to a standard price in accordance with the Douglas run. The cab companies raised Douglas to $1.50 due to the rising costs of operation and the costs of cars, all of which are still going up. Therefore we cannot run the | same distance in a different direction for less money.
