BUSMEN RUN ON
 STREETS NOT NAMED
(Continued from Page one)

(Continued from Page One) ven, who is apparently in turn acting under orders of Attorney Frank E. Healy.
 In Bridgeport practically all the To- cal buses are still operating under the "club plan" without interference. Assistant States Attorney, Ga1en A. Carer of Fairfield county is quoted as saying that his office as yet con- tempateS no action, but that if local authorities do not enforce the law in the various towns in the county af- fected that the county office will have to see that the law is enforced.
 Should the ''c1ub plan'' as techni- caIly operated be declared legal, it is believed that the next move upon the part of the authorities in communi- ties where they were active against the jitneys, will be to catch opera tors violating the strict workings Of the ordinance, by experimenting dri- vers who are careless about letting persons board the buses without showing membership cards, even though they are armed with the green tickets that are rendered in lieu of payment for a ride.
 Club plan" buses are not carrying as many passengers as they did TOT merly Some of the men admit it, ard officials of the Connecticut com pany report daily receipts as larger, and more cars as being in operation That many are. either afraid of the
 
 sary red tape of the idea was illus trated by a test ride this morning on the longest five cent ride furnished by jitneys, from Paradise Green to Park avenue.
 The bus leaving the green ahead of the 7:3o trolley passed through Stratford center with seven pasSen- gers. At the center seven more were on the curb, and all boarded the troll ley. At Hard's corner. Stratford ave nue and Main street, the trolley got five out of six awaiting customers Both picked up several on Stratford avenue, but when the bus passed out of observation some distance before the junction of Stratford and Con- nectlcut avenues at city line, there was still room, whereas under old ar engagements the bus would have been crowded almost before Stratford cen- ter was reached.
 From increased service. new men being taken on, and condition equip being kept in, it is evident that the trolley company expects to handle more traffic than they have in the past It is not thought by those in many persons will venture into the jitney business in it's present unsettled state, and it is pointed out that the life of many buses in operation will not be long.
 Some of the "J'' buses will accept the "club plan'' tickets, and some will not. Rumors are flying thick and fast that some of the operators or buses under the "club plan" are sell ing the tickets at the terminals that the have taken in on the rum This would not matter as far as the opera tion of the plan is concerned, but would defraud w. F. D. Fitzpatrick, the head of the Bridgeport Bus asso- citation, of his share of the receipts of the plan, for the men are supposed to turn in the tickets and get the cash, minus the commission.

HAYNES SMILES HIS HOPES FOR
 PARCHED NATION BUT REFUSES
 TO PR0PHESY DATE OF ARIDITY
Prohibition Director Double Barreed Optmist- Alright Ambitions But Does Not Refute Kramer's Statement That It May Take Hundred Years.
 Dry Humor Marks His Policy.
May Take a Century.


 Haynes would like to see the Unit ed States so dry in the next year that it will be impossible for an American to get a drink of liquor of any kind or color, or degree of voltage. Of course, he modifies this by admitting that, as Congress has specified, liquors have to be made available for medical needs.
 As for beverage liquors, however, it is his ambition to put the lid on so tight that the country will be as dry as the well-known Sahara. He is careful to qualify his hopes, however. with the emphatic statement that they are not linked up with a predic- tion.
 "I cannot predict when the coun- try will be dry" said MT. Haynes. ''That is scarcely possible now. We hope for much. We are confident much will be done to improve en- forcement and banish liquor for un- lawful use"
 Haynes does not wish to appear in the light of a prophet. He takes the view that one might as well pre- dict when the world will come to an end. He expressed interest in the prediction of his predecessor. John F. Kramer, that possibly a hundred years would pass before prohibition becames an actual fact. He weighed that prediction thoughtfu1ly. He would say nothing to upset it, real izing that Kramer had had consider able inside knowledge of conditions and must have based his we11-consid- cred statement upon something else than loose guessing.
