a public utility and not subject to regulations
similar to those now governing the traction corpo-
ratons. 1t is question, indeed, whether regula-
tons and definite requirements as to the quality
and quantity of service to be rendered to the pub
lie for its nickcls should be formulated before
the jtney begins operations. 1t would be as I'M
fair to the public as to the traction companies to
permit the privileged jitneys, by capturing the
profitable shorthaul traffic. to depetc the street
car revenues to compel curtailment of the
present efficient service covering the suburbs and
distant points within the city limits. The rcspon-
sibility for the experiment by no means trivial,
belongs to the Public Utilities Commissioners,
whose first concern is the public interest. Before
them the jitney bus promoters and the traction
stockholders stand equal.
