10000 PASSENGERS DAILY
Importance OF 1ntcrurban Is Shown
TO Lions by o. L. R. Manager.

The oklahoma Onion Railway
lines from Tulsa to Sapulpa and
Kiefer carry approximately ten thou
sand passengers day. Ralph V. Mil
Ter, manager of the oklahoma Union
told the Lions club at ite weekly
luncheon Thursday.
Some of the problems with which
the interurban lines have had TO
deal were discussed by Miller in his
talk outlining the history OF such
lines since their inception In In
diana "a years ago. The unrestrict-
trucks Is one of these. Railroads
ceased fighting tho electric lines
when they saw to what extent the
interurbans we're helping to build up
cities, but the competition of motor
trucks Is proving to be a real menace
to interurban business. Miller said.
