HOFF REPLIES
TO MOTORISTS
Railway Manager Thinks
Cars Should Have Right
Of Way

The complaint to the Street and Sewer
Directors by the Delaware Automobile As
sociaton Of alleged carelessness Of the
motormen of the Wilmington City Rail
way Company at street crossings brought
an incisive reply from Samuel S. Hot
general manager of the railway at the
directors meeting this morning.
Mr.. Hom thought that it was hardly
fair to impose the same restrictions on a
public service that are placed on the COM
paratively few persons owning aut3mo-
hles. Inasmuch as speed regulations for
street cars and automobiles are clearly es-
tablished the street directors have mercy
placed the matter'in the hands of the cay
solicitor to see that those applying TO
both motorists and street railways are eI.-
forced. The controversy between the auIo
association and the trolley company has
aroused much interest among motorists
In his letter to the street directors MIR
Hoff wrote:
In view Of the fact that trolley cars are
operated for the use of the public gener.
ally, il seems to me hardly fair TO m.
pose upon the company's operating the
same restrictive burdens tending to un-
necessarily slow inter communications be-
tween the various sections of the city in
order to grant as special privilege prac-
tically free rein TO a few reckless fndiner-
ent. or careless chaffeurs of the compare
lively small number of owners Of automo-
bles OF other motor vehicles in compari.
son with the eighty or ninety thousand
other citizens Of Wilmington and vicinity
The instructions of this company tc
its motormen in regard to careful iun.
ming are very positive and are carefully
followed up by the MANAGEMENT to seethai
they are carried out and we particular,
insist upon watchfulness on their part tc
