schedule of operation which must be
maintained rigidly If the permit is not
to be withdrawn. In addition the
driver must be at least twent-one years
old and must be able to carry on an

fit of female passenger. The ordinance
has the support of the Boise public,
especially of the suburbanites who be-
lieve that they will find themselves
without trolley service if the jitneys
are allowed to skim the cream of the
short-haul business.
The financial status of the average
jitney owner is glaringly illuminated
by the events in Phoenix where tht
city council imposed a license fee of
sixty dollars per annum, payable in
advance. Out of large fleet of lit
neys operating before the passage of
the ordinance only two or three sur
vived the payable-in-a advance clause,
The others retired.
Despite the decrease in the number
of vehicles operated, the titney bus
has come to stay. But regulation has
come to stay, likewise. Jitney owners

forming a real. substantial service, es-
pecially during the rush hours when
the electric cars must inevitably be
overcrowded. But q nickel is not ade-
quate compensation for the quality of

have to demand a ten-cent fare in or

with the increasing jitney business

With the increasing jitney business
in Harrisburg there is a most insist
ent demand that these automobiles be
<egulated in the interest of safety. AL
ready there have been several narrow
escapes from serious accident and
public sentiment demands that some
definite regulation be provided. There
is now pending in the Legislature IA
bill giving councils of cities power to
regulate the jitney business. The
sunset Magazine prints the following
Interesting article on the operation of
the jitneys in the West:
Though no statistics of reliable
data on the subject are available, ac-
cording to all indications the number
of jitney buses has decreased material
