 Nothing has been heard from the public utilities commission on a re- cent hearing on the reduction of the existing fare between Berlin and New Britain. Charles AspinWall made a plea for the Berlnites before the com mission at the hearing last week, asking for Immediate considera ton of the towns demands. About 30 commuters continue to hike" to Lin colns station to save two cents and declare that they will continue until the company lowers the fare.
 The American Paper Goods com- pany is helping it's employees to save. on the fares by running auto trucks to the Fair Grounds, conveying their employees to and from inc factory The fare from the end of the Berlin line to the Fair Grounds is but six cents HIle, eas to the l\ilby House it is eight cents, thus a saving of four cents a day is realized by Paper Goods employees
