WORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, SEFTEMBER 30, Y921 TRYING TO REVIVE TROLLEY LINE Once more efforts are being made to Bee 1 trolley service can not be resumed on what was once the western end of the Shore Line trolley system, the sec- tion from New Haven to the Connecticut river. The latest concern In the fleld is Xnown as the Finance and Reorganiza- tlon Co. of New York, and it is under- stood that many people along the route have paid various amounts of cash to this company. Some place- the total at $27,000 which 1s supposed to represent but the initial payments. Hope runs high but is tem- pered by thoughts of the past. Various people interested in the Shore Lime met at the office of the Comstock- Cheney Co., in Ivoryton, last Thursday and heard representatives of the Finance and Reorganization Co. tell their plans. Whether the project is going through or not is something that interests ever: one along the route, especially thos who have put their mon terprise during the past into the en- w weeks. Subscription blanks for the new com- pany set the amount of money to be raised at not to exceed $1.000,000 7 per cent first mo ld bonds, and common stock of the par value of $100 each, and issue not to exceed 7,000 shares DIAMOND DYES DON'T STREAK, FADE OR RUN ond T\v es”"—no other ki fect home dyeing is en if you have '(‘\r‘r dyed bo- an put color into your w skirts, waists, , drap 1 tions in every Stocks and bonds are to be of a cor- poration to be known as the Shore Line Traction Co., a Connecticut corporation. In the subscription blank it says in con- sideration thereof, the said Finance and Reorganization Co. agrees to assign and transfer to the Shore Line Traction Co. the part of the trolley line formerly be- longing to the Shore Line Elcetric Rail- way Co. between New Haven and Ches- ter, in operating condition with a power house and transmission line for said com- pany for an amount not to exceed $300,- 000 in seven per cent first mortgage bonds and 7,000 shares of common stock of the said Shore Line Traction Co. Under the plan it seems apparent that the Finance and Reorganization, Co. would. have all the Shore Line Traction Co., except $100,000 worth of its bonds. The subscription’ blank then says “In the event that the company shall not succeed in selling $205,000 in bonds and $205,000 par value of stock any amount which shall have been paid shall be re- funded. ‘When the company shall kave sold bonds in the amount of $205,000 it shall make ‘demand for the payment of the purchase price or any part remaining unpaid to be used in the purchase of the property of the Shore Line Electric rail- way. An estimate of the cost of putting the Shore Line in working order again calls or spending $600,000. The line origin- cost about $2,500,000 and the lat Morton F. Plant spent upward of $ 000,000 in all to get it going and then keep it in operation. With cars running nd New Haven, pany can be made to pay a d a reasonable amount of capital Franchise for operation of the Line now rests in the hands of New Haven men. Undoubte they would between Chester it is believed the com- idend on scribing for the stock. At any rate in. quiries have been made as to the mew company by rural residents, but until lately nothing had been known as to the Finance and Reorganization Co., which is a Delaware corporation. At the meeting at Ivoryton last weelk, representatives of the company drew a very bright picture of the possibilities of the road and showed how a fair dividend could be paid. Figures that had been drawns up by corporations which make a study of street railways were sub- mitted and, while they were understood to have been but tentative, they gave hope. Some 30 prominent Shore Line resi- dents were present. In the course of the meeting the state- ment was made that none of the former Shore Line trolley peopie would be con- nected with the new concern. Meanwhile the Shore Line awaits someone. The roadbed is intact from New Haven to Chester and will be kept 'so for an in- definite ' time. The receiver, Robert W. Perkins, is still in possession and awaits an offer that the superior court of New London county will permit him to accept. The chief drawback in the plan seems to lie in the belief of some who have been approached that the Finance and Re- organization Co. wants too jarge a part of the stock and bonds for its reward in getting the road under way again. The statement has been made that not over $600,000 weuld take care of the whole business especially since the power for the road must be secured from outside sources. People who have discussed the matter refuse to permit their names to be used. There have been stories printed late- Iy to the effect that the Shore Line tracks are being pulled up permanently. This idea grew out of a superior court order permitting the receiver to take up a stretch of track east of the Connecticut river. Nothing the other side of the riven has been touched and will not be touched very soon. In fact, people in the town of Madison paid out of their own pockets to have new ties and rails ‘éf‘” it to the Finance flnd AA”OT"T“MZ\' laid through their main street before Just tellljon Co. when that company gets a the state laid a new highway surface geist whether the material YOu, ;qsition to put the deal through. there last spring. wish to dye is wool or silk, or whether| ™ Great enthusiasm still persists in the | It the Shore Line ever is resumed there mixed g00ds.|ghore Line territor: It is understood |will be great joy all along the route ak, spot, fade, | that farmers are in the majority in sub- | ¢ ads from New Haven to the Con- | necticut river.

However, | The Affairs of Anatol, the latest pro- duction of the famous producer, which will be the feature at the Dayis theatre next Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday is said to excel all previous efforts in this respect. Jeanie Macpherson, author* of the story—suggested by Arthur -Schnitzler's play of the same name—is responsible for these subtitles and te her goes the credit for their scintiliating phraseol- ogy, thought and wit. The Affairs of Anatol is a searching analysis of the matrimonial ghd di- vorce problem handled with .the mast- ery which is Cecil B, DeMille’s chief distinction. He has develoved.a pow- erful story that deals in real truths, it said, and to this he has added a sym- thetic comedy note that serves to re- ieve the serious vein of the story with- out in any way detracting . from the power or vividness of the central theme. Wallace Reid and Gloria Swan- son head an all-star cast in this pic- | ture, The effect of these subtitles is water- ially inoreased by the symgmlic art work which decorates the subtities.
