Traffic Problems Discussed
at Forum Here To-day
(Contlnued from page ID

Mr.. Crawford, told how the iitney
business had started in the west and
worked east, me of the study and
problems that must be solved before
the bus lines a become a success. He
told how the iitney business came to
Newark, first through the touring car
and later the regular busses. Within
a few months after the first car ap-
peared in Newark, the city had ESQ
such cars carrying persons withou re-
strictions of any kind. He told how
the city got rid of this class of titney
and adopted the big busses which are
not being standardized, as TO size and
make of bus.
He advised the city to discourage
the use of small one ton trueks and
advised the purchasing of a a of
larger size.
He told of the complaints that are
received by the city from time to time
and informed the men present that
the city must be in position to pay at
tention to these complaints. Records
must be kept by the city and the own
ers must secure bonds so as to meet
any accident claims that come before
them. He also advised the limiting
of n certain number of jitneys to the
streets so that the owners may be sure
of making a success of the line.
A FIVE cent fare is charged within
the city limits, but out side the city
q fare of ten cents is charged. The
city receives five per cent of the re-
ceipts Of the jitneys, and in cases
where they operate in some other
munict- @ntv besides the city. each
! anIcIpality receives two and one half
per cent. Cash registers have been
placed In the cars to keep a record of
the fares taken in. In closing Mr..
Crawford, urged hat the matter be
given considerable study and the bus
SEES standardized from the beginning.

GREAT RESPONSE
IN NEW JERSEY
Common People Supporting
Salvation Army Drive, Com
mittee Reports

d oAN NNAH W.
NEWARK, May 29:-with -four
counties over the top and with two
days remaining after today to round
out the campaign, New Jerseys total
thus far raised for the Salvation
Army's Home Service Fund is esti-
mated at 100000. The states quota
was set at $4,000
One fact stands out in this drive.
The big response Is from the common
people. The big fellows" who came
in at the finish and put the war
drives over have been very modestly
in evidence in the Salvation Army
campaign. They are thoroughly
familiar with what the Salvation
Army is and what it has lone and
do not hesitate to praise its work,
but as a rule they do not speak in
terms of large donations. The work
of caring for the "down-and-outer
appears to be more largely the con-
Germ of the common people.
If New Jersey fails to go over the
top for the Salvation Army 1t will
not be cause of any lack Of any en-
thusiasm among the ran and file of
her citizens. It will be because, after
the wearing grind of the war drives
and victory loan, IL has been impossi-
BILE to get a sufficient force of work.
ers and to convince the monied in
terests that the cause of humanity Is
quite as important as the cause OF
patriotism.
One thing the people of New Jer-
soy should remember Is that most of
the money viii be spent in the local
tiles in which It Is raised. Therefore,
IL a locality fails to meet its quota, 1t
suffers a direct loss.

Coming to the Strand

auction of Souls" which is to be
presented 1T the Strand Monday, has
the unusual distinction of having a
leading woman who actually enacted
the original scenes which the motion
picture reproduces. Miss Aurora
Mardiganian, the girl who has the
leading role, is not a motion picture
actress, but was induced to act for
the films just what she personally
passed through in Armenia in 1915.
Miss Mardiganian's inexperience
before the camera is not apparent in
the picture for she holds up her own
end as we'll as any of the regular ac-
tors. Perhaps her art is that born of
the vivid m of the horrible
scenes through which she passed be-
fore escaping from her native land to
