Fiqht Over Hot Water
Adoption Of State policy for con-
servation Of potable water sources
will be an important issue at the next
session of the Legislature.
The Court of Errors and Appeals
set aside the action of the State Board
of Conservation and Development in
awarding to Bayonne the right to de-
velop the Ramapo Valley watershed
and take 5O,000,O00 gallons of water
daily for potable purposes. The Su-
preme Court previously had sustained
Bayonne's application. The highest
State court said the grant was illegal
because the municipality had not OBJ
tanned the approval of the North Jer-
sey District Water Supply Commits
sion, had neglected to properly adver-
tise the pending application, and that
a majority of the members of the
conservation board did not attend the
public hearings at which testimony on
the grant was taken.
In the last legislature bills spon-
sored by Speaker William w. Evans
of Paterson to require Bayonne to Sc
cure approval of the north Jersey Dis
trict Water Supply Commission, in
addition to sanction of the state
board failed of passage.

BUSES PUT INTO USE
Tfactien Company Tries Automobile
- Supplement SGvica

The use Of REQ buses as shuttle
cars FOR the purpose Of improving
the service to street car patrons who
live at q distance from any regular
route is being tried out by the San
Antonio Public Service company, ac-
cording to 81. W. Holden, superintend-
ent Of transportation.
One bus connects with the Hot
Wells line at Jacobs street and runs
down Roosevelt avenue to McMullen.
It is run for the purpose of enabling
people who live in the vicinity Of
McMullen and Roosevelt to reach the
Hot Wells line without having to cross
the muddy stretch that lies along the
8. A. & A. p. railroad In rainy
weather. Mr.. Holden said,
Another bus is being operated along
Pine street from which street car
line was recently removed. 1t con-
meets with the Burnet and Army
Post lines and runs from Carson street
to Burnet street.
Mr.. Holden stated that the use of
buses was in the experimental stage
at present. No additional lines are be-
inc contemplated at present. Whether
more viii be added later or the ones
in use now discarded will depend upon
the success that attends the expert
ment.
The buses are operated on the
same basis upon which the shuttle cars
are operated. Transfers are accepted
rs fares and given to those who de-
sire them. d
