TRoLLEY-TRAIN SERVICE
 | COULDN'T BE WORSE
DanieIson Gets No Consideration an, Residents All to Remonstrate.

Danielson has not been given in the past to the waves of protest that has swept other towns between New London and Webster upon the an- nouncement of curtailment of train and trolley service, but it is so left at the present time that remonstrance against it's public transportation ser vice becomes absolutely essential.
 Danieason fully recognizes the se- riousness of the fuel shortage, but in view of the fact that there has been no cut in service between Putnam and West Thompson and, that double hsad- CT service is maintained on the Cen tral Village Norwich line during a part of each Saturday, there seems no rea- son in the world why Danie1son should not have at least as much considera- ton.
 Saturday afternoon, for instance, was marked by considerable loss of trade to Danielson business men by | reason of inadequate trolley service. With no car northbound from Central Village between 12.45 a. m. and 2.45 ! D. m., persons who wanted to get to Danielson found the single car run out of Central Village at 2.45 crowded far beyond normal capacity and persons who come to Danielson were unable | to get here until late in the afternoon being obliged to wait in every case ot least an hour,
 | It would seem to persons who have | studied the trolley schedule in pres ent use between Central Village and Putnam that it has been framed with out any consideration for the needs of Danielson people or those who wish to come here.
 The afternoon cars that, under the old schedule. would have been of value in making train connections at Put nam, now that other trains have beer taken off. have been removed and cars trat are of no benefit at all in afford. ing connections at Putnam continue tC run A car that formerly left here al 12.10 and affected connections fo1 l Worcester, Boston and Providence has been removed. Likewise the car leav. ing here at 2.10 D. m.. affording con. nections for Willimantic, Hartford New Haven and New York. The It p. m. and, the 3.10 ears, connecting with nothing at Putnam are still il service. Along the, same line, men. tion may be made of new expres. service leaving Putnam at 2.35 p. m. when there isn't passenger train du, from anywhere in that city. and be-
 ing of no special advantage to any. I DOuy dL lI1JL
