He has been operating on a regular schedule adopted by the morale depart- ment of the submarine base. It takes 15 minutes to make the trip and the line does niot compete With the trolley. Bal- delll said that he charges 20 cents a sin- gle trip but he gells commutation tckets for 156 cents each. He operates two White cars and one Mack machine, with a total capacity of 73 passengers. The applicant said that he had never been arrested or lost his license and that he had never met with any serious acci- dents, If necessary he would enlarge the schedule. He said that his was the only jitney service between New London ok “The Coffee of Good Taste” 42 cents a pound 1 and the base. He takes school children between the base and New London. Lieut .R. B. England, - attached to- the submarine base, appeared in favor of granting the license to Bal- dellj, declaring that both .the boat and train service was inadequate and the bus is the only reliable means of getting to and from the base. He said that be- fore Baldelli started hig line, the jitney service had never been satisfactory. and that the officials of the submarine base wished the service continued. Lieutenant FEngland stated that Baldelll was operat- ing a schedule adopted by the mavy of- fictals, W. N. Bennett, chief. petty offi- cer, attached to the morale department of the base, acquiesced in what Lieuten- ant England said. Alderman Henry C. Chappell, chalr- man of a special committee appointed by the court of common . ecouncil at its meeting Thursday night to represent the city at the hearing, stated that in behalf of the city, the committee was in favor of the line to the base. He sald that service between New London and the base had been inadequate until Mr. Bal- dellf started his line and that the appli- cant is thoroughly reliable. Attorney Charles B. Whittlesey, rep- resenting the Shore Line Electric Rall- way Co., stated that the company did not object to the line so long as it did not interfere with a proposed line which was to be built across the state high- way bridge. He said that if Baldelll agreed to a minimum charge of 20 cents a trip regardless of where the passen- gers get on, it would be satisfactory to the company. This wag agreed to by Attorney McGuire in behalf of Mr. Bai- delll, The application of Tony Biscont! of 619 Bank street for permiesion to run from the Parade through the village of Jordan to Niantic was taken up next. The applicant was represented by Attor- ney Thomas F. Dorsey. Bisconti said that his route began in front of the Crown theatre in State street and ended at the post office at Niantic. He said that there was no other bus line to N1- antic and that he had been operating the line for nine months. He said that he charges 25 cents and that he operates a car with a capacity of 16 passengers. He is ready to put on additional service it there is a demand.. Attorney Dorsey handed the commission a petition con- taining more than 100 signatures of per- gons who feel that the line is neces- sary. Selectman C. H.

( Attorney Whifitlesey #aid that tige company could not object to the line If there were restrictions. He said that for two miles the line parallels the line of the Shore Line company and that jt Is in competition with the best part of the line. The attorney declared that he Was not trying to stop service to Ni- antlo but he felt Bisconti should op- erate express service to Mosshroker's corners and that he should maintain a minimum charge of 25 cents. Blsconti, through his counsel, to this provision. Applications of Charles W. Elliott, Edward J. Burke, Michalo Baldtlli, En- rico Parsini, Samuel Shapiro and An- tonio Caldrello, all o¢f New London, for agreed permission to operate jitney limes to M Ocean Beach, were next considered. Commissioner Alsop said that the commission would Arst considor _ the EAGLE BRAND route which the applicants wished to adopt and the desirabflity and necessity for the service. He suggested that ail the men might later agree to form some sort of an association and agree to op- erate the line jointly and that there would be no necessity of holding sep- arate hearings on the applications. Mr. Eiflott was questioned as to the route to the beach and he said that it was the one designated by the court of common council about a year ago. He handed the commissioners a petition with a large number of signatures of residents of the Ocean avenue section calling aftention to the necessity for the ine, He said that the fare was 10 cents to the beach and that the running time was 15 minutes, the distance being about four miles, To a question from Com-|rman. missioner Elwell, Mr. Elliott, Who Was| Mrs. Wye—It has certainly changed a former trolley car motorman in this|my husband.
