NEW TRACTION
SYSTEM PLANNED
Company Granted Franchise
For Trackless Trolley by
Dover Borough Council

Dover, Pa, April 4.-Dover Bor-
ough Council at its meeting on Tues
day evening renewed the franchise
granted a year ago to the corpora
tion that has planned to operate "A
trackless trolley between this place
and New Cumberland. c. 5. Comfy,
the company's representative. was
here and conferred with the members
of Council. 1t is claimed that, due
to the war, material to build the line
is difficult to secure. Contracts for
the poles have already been let to a
York county forest owner. The plan
of the company is to first open the
route from here TO Rossville. and
then to New Cumberland by way of
Lewisberry. The right of way
through Wellsvlle and DllsburE
could not be secured. and for that
reason those two boroughs will no.
be included in the route.
The conveyance win be on the or
der of a large motor bus and carry
about thirty persons. It's motive
power will be received from an
overhead trolley wire, just the same
as for the ordinary trolleycar. This
car, however will not run on a
II aCk, but will have to be guided the
same as motor bus. Lines of this
sort have been operated successfully
In Europe.
The cars will be operated on a
schedule to connect with the electric
cars at New Cumberland for Harris
burg, and with the York Railways
Company at this place for York.
