r. a p. company over the wei
fare of the very patient citizens
of this community.
The time schedule of running
cars seems to be purposely ar
ranged to cause the maximum OF
inconvenience, annoyance and
loss to the people. A specific in

which formerly. solely by dint of
effort on the part of car crews
to accommodate people on the
way to work (and not because
the time arranged for IL was right
for IL was not) would occasion
ally make connections with other
lines. But that was too COED TO
last, and not to be permitted.
Therefore, an order to effectually
prevent It has been issued The
time OF the Point Defiance car
has been set back five minutes
