How to Buy Tokens.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
1 noticed in Saturdays edition Of
your paper that the street car COM
pany are kicking over some OF their
patrons trying to pay 20 cents for
three car tokens. and stating that
it would interfere with the schedule
time Of the cars. Now there Is an
easy way to settle that question
and that is for the car company to
huild a place so that the patrons
can get their tokens before they
get on the cars. Other cities in the
country do Il: don't see why this
city cannot follow suit. Take Kan
sas City. Mo-. for one example. It
Is the easiest thing in the world
to get car tokens there. or course
that Is only one city can mentfon.
1t looks to me that the companies
want to make almost the same
amount OF dividends as they did be-
fore they made the small reduction
in prices. You cannot wonder that
