One proposed line {8 between Main street and Roxbury road and the other between Main and | South streets. Plenty of publicity has been given the matter of reduction trolley rates. The commission has decided to grant no lower fares for the present "t least. Meanwhile there are many people the same handicap in living that has been a burden to them for some time. They geem to have no spokesman. Even if the lower fares are granted they will be in the same position as at present. They will vet they f Jive in portions of the city which, ow- ing to gradual development, are titled to service. If there were to be a choice be- tween obtaining lower the eity, without added extension of serv- jce, and added lines with the trolley fare left at it is, the choice would | have to be made of the former. It would benefit more people in the city, entitled to be benefited, to have low- ered fares than it would to have more extensive service. But the choice does not have to be made. The high fares are here and, if the Connecticut com- pany is to have its way in this respect, | . the people should have their way in the other—the matter of having more ground covered by public transporta- tion vehicles. No one desires to see a person enter the jitney business and lose practical- 1y all that person possesses, owing to a taking from him of his right to do business. This the here. But it is to be desired that as many people as possible may bhe served by transportation and as long the Connecticut continues to keep its fares high, it would seem the least the utilities commission do would be to grant people who would serve by transpor- tation districts which are not served adequately by the Connecticut com- pany. to of in city experiencing the not have service, en- fares for has been case as company could permission to SCHOOL BONDS !
