STAR, ‘WASHINGTON, D. O, THURSDAY, APRIL 3, 1930. FERRY HEARINGS ARE SET BY I. C. C. NEXT MONDAY Proposed Boat Service Would Shorten Distance Between City and Maryland Points. Interstate Commerce Commission hearings on the proposal of the Chesa- peake Railway Co. to operate a ferry service between Chesapeake Beach, Md., and a point about 10 miles from Cam- bridge, Md., on the Eastern Shore, a total distance of 16 miles, will begin Monday, ‘The ferry service would reduce the time of travel from Washington to Eastern Shore points, as the distance from Wuhlns&m to Cambridge would be shortened 36 miles and from Wash- ington to Salisbury, Md., or 24 miles to Ocean City. Ferry boats that are planned for the service would be of 1,800 tons each and would be capable of carrying 1,500 passengers and 95 automobiles. East- ern Shore residents are particularly in- terested in the proposed service, as it would shorten the routes to Baltimore and Washington and would allow faster delivery of country produce from the section. ¢ ‘Women Try for Police Jobs.
