RE HEARING President of the Lucius S, Storrs, Connecticut company is reported to aave said at the trolley fare hearing| in Bridgeport yesterday, that until the | transportation | comes when the [ tim¢ corporation can be designated as sole medium of transportation the com- | must suffer through higher| munity fares. | There is but one sure way for the Connecticut company to bring about its designation as “thc sole medium of transportation.” That way is by reducing fares and giving good service. If the Connecticut company would| do this the travelling public itself | would “designate” the company as the sole medium of transportation. The| public would patronize it to the ex-| clusion of other methods of transpor- | tation. | There would be no need for ap- peals to the public utilities commis- sion. The matter would regulate it- self. Other methods of bringing revenue to the company have been tried. Par- | tial elimination of the jitneys hns: brought it increased revenues and in- creasing antagonism on the part of the people. The lower fare method would bring elimination of the jitneys, whether the people liked it or not, and increasing good will, instead of antagonism, on the part of the people. There is a great asset within the grasp of the Connecticut company. That asset is public good wijl. It is slipping farther and farther from the company. Soon there is danger that it will be beyond the company's reach, The public demand, not only in New Britain but in many other cities, for lower fare is growing tremendously. Today is the time for the company to seize that slipping asset. If it gets beyond reaeh, df .the public demand is not recognized now, there is danger that the public demands for other means of transpbrtation will become 8o strong that it will prevail. Whether or not the public would suffer if such demand for other transportation is granted eventually to the tgtal anni- hilation of the trolley company, is a question quite beside the point. The | good or harm will. have been done. Action by the company then will be too late. To raise a questionable point, advance an argument that may be de- | feated, s but to weaken the case of the person who raises such point. I"or this reason it is unwise to base a claim for lower fares entirely upon the facts apparently sound that more money has been taken in under the lower rate in Bridgeport and in Nor- walk than was received under the ten- | cent fare. ‘This - argument which | seems so unanswerable to the layman who has not the whole data at hand might be answered and facts complled by company which figures and facts could not be | controverted by the people because of | lack of means ability and timce and facilities for going into them ;.s; to | to by figures experts | and would be necessary thoroughly as meet the company's casc. not | dire new candldate into for the | nomination for the mayoralty, for in stance, or when viewing the actioy o party in adopting primary | system to select the party's nominee, | this broader viewpoint is t s to 1 If the according to what will redound bee udopted clslon mad to the benefit of the greatest number through all time this light affect of people 3 forgetting | the seen and how will ehand A the plen lerman Paonessa or Joseph ran or any other candidate, the decision of the local democrats to adopt the primary system for the the mayor lection of its nominee for It will ulty good is unfortunate that the ed is prople's cannot be consult-| national poli- ted, 'l‘h-». ulted does more thoroughly in tics when a president is se that It not so cons fact is from the wisdom of con- of This detract whe hen | int sulting the will the people it may be done, New Prita at least; leaders are to be congratulated for is the possible democratic | having decided to « THE KALKOWSKI CASE | The of the | against | Klemens Kalkowski for a thel dismissal 1t ged dam- ages resulting from death of Louis Winkle suggests a novel legal question, Of course some hreach of duty on shown hefore lkowski's purt had to be | he t-mll:l/lunl‘ been held | responsible for damages.
