 "Jitney forever.'5'
 "Why should I pay IS cents to get to work when I can get there for five cents by jitney? am a jitney booster"
 "OnFy once have I criticized the 1itney, that was during the last cam paign- That was when the jitneurs allowed themselves to be browbeat by the politicians in general, and the policemen in particular"
 "A uniform covers a multitude of sins but does not make a gentle man."
 "Our friend of Noble avenue does not say how long she waited for a trolley last winter"
 Never rode in a trolley where a 5itney could take me, nor have I once found, an uncivil driver. Would that I could say as much for the trolley conductors"
 Where are the voices from Walnut beach,, where, during one of the storms last winter. the tro1leys were stalled for forty-eight hours."
 "Along with two grandchildren I spent the afternoon at the beach and cannot say too much in praise of the jitney.''

 "Jitneys give quick service and don't make so much noise as the squeaking trol1eys have. Give them a chance to see what they can do."

 Tt is about time our city officials woke up and rid our city of these dirty 5jtneys.' with 5c fare"

 Why doesn't Wilson put the jitneys off the streets? He will never be Mayor again, the women are all against him.
 .. Give us the trolleys. We need them badly"
 .'What will happen when everyone has co1d2 Give us the trol1eys."
 Five in our family want the troll leys. The ones who have authority to bring back the trolleys should take ride in a Derby jitney. They should surely see why we need the troneys on that line"
 Nothing but the trol1eys for me-"

 "Jitneys are unclean and unsafe. Drivers dirty
 Remove 1itneys from our streets and give us the tro11eys.' Dear Edftor:-
