Declaring that the road is pros
porous and any fare raise unwarrant-
ed" John r. Riggles. chairman of the
w. B. & A Commuters Club, has filed

100 per cent, is unjust, unfair and
unreasonable to the patrons of the
road. many of whom donated the
right-of-way when the road was
built" declares the protest.

more and Washington who have al

sides surplus earned of $2O7.S79.

the fact that an increase is unwar-
ranted, we beg of you to deny a raise
