TROLLEY EMPLoYES MAKE
 FINAL STATEMENT

In fairness to he reading public and as a duty we owe to ourselves, we take this opportunity to correct an impress sion carried to the people of Danielson through the news columns of The Bulletin of Aug. 24th. We believe this article was written in haste or it never would have appeared.
 It was truthfully stated in the arti- cle that the service of The Bulletin was cOurteously granted to us and we courteously presented our article in sentative of The Bulletin in this dis trict. He accepted it and it was pub lished in that same form. It is evil dent, therefore. the responsibility was taken from our shoulders.
 It is. moreover difficult to under stand why the local Bulletin repre- sentative with his clear conscience ap- propriated this statement to himself. We realize he is not the mouthpiece of the Shore Line Electric Co., in this dis trict. And we know that after his splendid record on the local exemption board which assisted so materially in sending our boys 5000 miles across the sea to fight for honor he would not at tempt collusion nor grace the columns of his pa per with the views of such a dishonored party IS the Shore Line Co Let us clean our own house!
 We trust this will close this incl dent.
