TROLLEY DEVELOPMENTS While the plight of the trolley lines all over the United States has been one to arouse public. concersl in many com- | munities, developments in the trolley sit- | uation in various parts of the country are of interest. Two of these come to notice at the present time, one in To-|c ledo and the other in Bridgeport. In Toledo some time ago the people | f voted to order the cars off the streets and they were taken to Michigan by the operating eompany.

Since then the traffic in that eity has been handled by the jitneys, but the latest news from there indicates something of a change of attitude as to the satisfactory service which the jitneys give. One of the nec- cessary accompaniments to the use of so large a number of jitneys in the city was 2 no parking rule.
