Smyrna times., 1925-07-22

Tho railroad committee recently ap-
uoirted by the Smyrna Chamber of
commerce went this morning to Will
,oircton to meet r. V. Massey, gen
.roI manager of the Pennsylvania
paiIroad at Superintendent l. B. Sin
rIsir's office. The Smyrna delegation
fonObt for Smyrna being continued
arailroad town" instead of a "bus
town" as proposed by Supt. Sinclair
Of his recent visit to Smyrna. w. o.
Hofeeker was spokesman for the del
oco+ion and Hon. Thomas F. Bayard
Senior United Senator Senator from
delaware, went along with the Smyr-
mans TO aid all he could. Mr.. Massey
hacked Supt. Sinclair in the PROPOSE
top and announced that the passenger
service on the Smyrna Branch would
be discontinued and a bus service sub
sidized to meet all trains at Clayton,
as Smyrna at present, with Sunday
trains included. The Smyrna Railroad
station, however, will not be closed
but will be kept open, a One-man sta
ton, to handle freight. Mr. Massey
did favor Smyrna in the matter of
handling lower than car load lots of
freight. These will be brought in by
rail into Smyrna as we'll as carload
lOts Just how Smyrna will appear
on the railroad time table was not
clear but some mention was made that
It would appear as Clayton and Smyr-
na. The bus, it is understood, will
run from the -Four Corners" Smyrna
to the Clayton R. R. Station. The
Smyrna delegation tried in every way
to convince Mr.. Massey that the Rail
road Company would be keeping
sweet" with a live community by re-
tanning the present arrangement, but
he would not promise anything in the
way Of passenger service, neither
would he guarantee a bus service as
part Of their system. The bus will be
subsidized service and continued if it
pays and taken off if it does not paw.
Smyrna appeal went at naught. The
effect, to say the least, was discour-
aging to business men of Smyrna.
After years of continuous railroad
passenger service to be set down as a
bus town does not set well. The one
comforting thought is that Smyrna
mas the Boulevard now, that it didn't
have years ago, and the Railroad Com
panyS course will react more on them
than it will Smyrna if they do not
give full and efficient service. No
special time for taking off the train
was announced. The delegation who
went up from Smyrna was composed
Of W. 0. HOfecker, Edward G. Walls,
Warner W. Price, Howard r. Jones,
harry B. Grieves, Esley NJ. Rust, w.
L Matthews, Jr., V. Lay Phillips, J.
Frank Webb and Mark McManus.
