to Los Angeles, is the slogan of the
strangest transportation system in
America. The line is used almost ex-

The bus line was started by Culver

the high rates charged by the electric
line running the II miles from Los
Angeles to Culver City. No permit
could be obtained from the State Rail
road Commission. so no fare could be
charged. But by putting passengers
