Transportation
Woes Increase
In Des Moines
Bus System Inadequate to
Carry Workers Who Must
'Hoof 1t" Since Cars
Quit Running.

Des Moines, Aug. 4.-(Specia
Telegram. Transportation Difficult
ties continued to multiply here today
and it is now possible that this city
may be left with only makeshift
system, entirely inadequate, to copt
with the situation created by sus'
pension of street car service at mid
night Wednesday.
Today being an abnormal traffic
day, owing to the fact that circus
played in the afternoon and tonight
there was no reliable gauge by which
to measure the effect of the cessa-
ton of street car service.
During the early morning hours
there was a noticeable absence OF
people on the streets, but as the time
drew near for the circus parade the
downtown streets were packed with
the usual parade crowds.
At late hour today thousands OF
men and women employed in the
downtown section of the city were
either hoofng it, to their homes or
were riding in private cars with any
one kind enough to give them lift,
Confidence in the ability of the buses
to handle the passenger traffic has
been completely shattered in the
mind of the public. Sixty-one of
these vehicles, operating from mid
hight Wednesday, carried but one
third of the average number of per-
sons who ride in the cars.
Loop District Congested.
For several hours after the. stores
and factories had closed, the loop dis
trict was seriously congested. Hun
dreds of disgusted citizens waited
and waited on the city's principal
street corners for the busses, but
these were packed to capacity and
left them waiting"
To add to the woes of the public
the city council has refused to grant
the bus operators either fve-year
or a one-year franchise. 1t had been
promised by the bus operators that
if such a contract was extended them
they would put approximately 15C
such vehicles in operation here, thus
insuring adequate transportation for
the city.
Apparently the council fears to
tie its hands by granting the fran.
chise, as such action would make
resumption of service by the trans
ton company an impossibility.
Seeking Way Out.
The entire situation was brought
about by the city councils refusal to
eliminate the buses, which the trac-
ton company claimed we're respon-
sible for its financial difficulties.
Interest is now centered on the ef-
forts of the city's leading merchants
to devise a way out of the situation.
These met late this afternoon, with
F. c. Chambers, receiver for the
bondholders. 1t is known they have
requested the company's executive
to file with them a brief statement
setting forth the minimum the trac-
ton company will accept to resume
operations. Little likelihood exists,
however, of a resumption of service
in the immediate future. Even if an
adjustment is made, the foreclosure
suit will have to be dissolved in the
federal court and new franchise
granted the company. This would
consume at least two weeks.
Mayor Barton and other council
members failed to take any action in
the situation. They each issued press
statements justifying their opposition
to the car company.
