| W The trolley strike is surely felt in Westerly, as the main business of the residents village is dependent upon in other parts of the big town and ad- jacent places, the trolleys main mode of transportation. Pleasant View and Weekapaug completely cut off from transporta- tion facilities, while a motor makes as many trips as possible Watch Hill. The bus rate strike was ten cents and this rate was not changed on Wednes: It is ex- pected that another bus 1 be add- ed to the Watch Hill route and the fare perhaps doubled. Already work- men employed at the hill are register- ing objection to an _increased bus will be boycotted when the trol- ley car traffic is resumed. Westerly has its full quota of mis- named jitneys, as they are in the taxi- cab service, with an established rate of 25 cents a passenger in the com- pact part of the village, that is with- in the fire district. with an extra MILLIONS Suffer from Acid-Stomach Millions of people suffer year after year trom aiments aflectmg practically every 7t of the body, never dreaming that their T Reaith can be traced directly to scid-stom- ach.

We will sell FRESH charge beyond the fire limits, but not applicable to the village of Pawca- tuck. This service does not expect any benefit from the strike, as the service is mot in opposition to or in on with the trolley cars. The service iz dependent almost _entirely upon telephone call and . transient traffic about the town and generally away from the trolley . tracks. The regular _price for taxicab to Watch Hill is $1.50, and there is not much demand for the serryce at that price. Even the highly-paid skilled and un- skilled workmen object to the pay- ment of that price to take them to their work at the hill and home again, as $3 a day would cut deep into their pay. As the bus is not adequate for the service, these men insist that transportation be furnished by their employes, just the same as if the trol- ley_system were in full operation. The sirike has also materially af- fected the residents- of White Rock, Potter Hill and Ashaway, as well as those in Stonington who did most of their buying in Westerly, and the Westerly merchants felt the effect even on the first day of the strike. Daytona is the winter home of many Westerly people possessed of a fair proportion -of this world’s goods and who are intent on enjoying some of life's pleasures.
