BOSTON TAXI FARES
REDUCED BY DODGE
Cabs of New Line Especial
ly Built on Standard
Chassis

Boston has now Joined hands with
Chicago, New York and Pittsburg In
the matter of cheaper taxi fares. The
mediums whereby this move has been
accomplished were a consolidation of
the city's two larger taxi companies
and fleet of so new taxicabs with
especially built bodies mounted on
Dodge Brothers chassis.
Taxi rates had been soaring in Bos-
ton, in common with everything from
soap to sole leather. But travellers to
Boston may now ride from the rail-
road station to their hotels for a quar-
ter instead of the usual 40 cents, and
a nextra passenger costs only q dime
more. At that, the passengers read the
meters themselves. for these are
mounted in plain view in the passen-
ger compartments of the new cabs.
First delivery of 10 of the new cabs
was made about December 1 by the
Henshaw Motor company, Boston rep
resentatives for Dodge Brothers cars,
and they were imm ediately put into
service by Town Taxi, Inc. con-
solidation of the Rocket and Krank-
line companies. By this time all the

ual multiplies individual efficiency and
capacity. The valuable worker, moving
ra pidly from place to place. thinking as
he goes with comfort ana speed, is
made infinitely more valuable by the
automobiles power.
The great problem of the day is trans
pcrtation. The automobile helps to solve
that problem. The light, powerful gas
engine. Independent of rails and roads,
inexpensive, swift, adapted to all work,
is the helper of the professions, of trade
o. industry and of the railroads. What
the telephone has done for the human
voice, carrying thought, the automobile
does for the human body, carrying per
sonality where it's work is needed. 1t
is personality that solves problems and
wins wars.
Our chief lack is OF the higher grade.
One first-class man, plus an automobile,
becomes three first-class men, for he
can do the work of three. The army
general no longer gallops for five hours,
exhausting his body and brain, killing
his horse, to cover 50 miles. The high
powered automobile carries him so miles
in less than an hour. he thinks and plans
as he goes, arrives fresh for his work.
WAR CREATES DEMAND
The war has taken more than half
of the best doctors. The automobile
works in the place of those absent men,
enabling one doctor to do the work of
two.
The farmer is the foundation and the
cornerstone of the nations prosperity,
more essential to success in war than
the bullets that kill. for he keeps alive
those that do the fighting. The auto
mobile of all inventions, is the farmers
greatest time-saver. His light, swift run

from exhausting, fast driving, continue
their work at plow or harrow in other
hands. Take the automobile from the
farmer and you take the food of mil
lions from our national production. Con-
stantly you hear of the farmers in
creased prosperity-few realize what the
err CINE and the four wheels of the auto
mobile have done to create that pros
perity and the farms productiyeness.

Thanks to the automobile producers the
government found ready-made great bod

les. Thanks to the automobile men the
government found, generously ready,
ma gnificent factories equipped for most
important war work-the making of fly
ing machines, the production of the
thousands of trucks and high speed au-
tomobiles upon which our army must
travel.
The man is not statesman who fails

should be supplied to the automobile in

has done in the past to prepare the fac
tories and the mechanics for the war
need of today, the automobile is doing
now to prepare for this nation the equip
ment that will be needed when the war
ends, and inter competition national be-

1t Is the duty of government to up

Motor Transport

Motor trucks seem to offer the only
hope for a solution of our transportation
problem. Very shortly we may hope that
there will be many auto-truck freight
lines in operation. Not only will this give
great aid in carrying on the increasing
pressure and volume Of business, and
so fill an immediate need. but it will
exert Its influence in other directions. The
transportation of persons in passenger
automobiles will increase along the
same routes and for the same reason.
All this will give a tremendous im-
petus to the good roads movement. II
is no longer a. question of whether we
want good roads or not Now we must
have good roads if our work is to be
carried on. Many rural communities
which have suffered by being off the
main lines of the railway will find them
selves on through motor routes and be
galvanized into new life, If the prob
lens of fuel can be soiN ed, as they seem
likely to be solved, these new motor
routes bid fair to be permanent.-Mile-
stones.
