MARIETTANS WANT
CHEAPER CAR FARES
Request Will be Heard by
Railroad Commission
August 4th.

The railroad commission has
been petitioned by a number of
prominent citizens of Marietta to
grant a rehearing in the matter of
a petition for lower rates and i'm
proved service on the Atlanta
Northern Electric railroad-the
Atlanta Marietta trolley line. The
commission has fixed August 4th
as the date for hearing the petition
for reopening of the case.
The original petition in this
matter was filed in February of
last year, and the petition was de-
clined by the commission on July
31st, 1908. The petitioners did
not attend the hearings, nor were
they represented by counsel. The
railroad company made an elabo-
rate showing.
The petitioners think the 35-cent
straight fare too high, and want a
fiat rate OF 20 cents each way be-
tween Atlanta and Marietta they
demand, also, that the life of COM
mutation books be extended from
30 to 60 days; they want smoking
compartments, toilet rooms, and
other conveniences on the cars
