Propose Nee York
Buses Thru
LambertviIIe
No Application Made To Lambert
vile Commissioners

Lambertville - Representative of
New York-W Washington bus line
were here Sunday preparatory to
operating their BUSES thru this
city. Arrangements were tentative
ly made with Thomas F. Kilroy for
an oil and gas station at his garage
on South Main street. Mr.. Kilroy
reports that he was informed the
first busses would run next Sunday
if plans are carried out.
Only two buses will be operated
on the route, one each way daily.
They will leave New York and
WASHINGTON simultaneously at $50
A. NJ, the down bus passing thru
here at noon, and the up bus arrv-
ing at 300 P. NJ. Mr.. Kilroy says
he was informed the buses are
supposed to carry only thru passen-
gers unless there are vacant seats
to accommodate local trips.
The proposed route will be thru
Newark, Bound Brook, Flemington on,
Lambertville, West Chester, Kenne't
Square and Baltimore, connecting
New York and Washington. If the
buses discharge and receive pas
sengers in Lambertville the Com
pany will have to secure permit from
the City Commissioners, and this
would necessitate a city ordinance
and a tax to the city But Mayor
Moonan says no request has been
made for such a permit to his know
ledge, and City Clerk Van Malta
says there has been no communica-
ton from the Company at all. With
out doubt the service would be vel
coined if passengers were discharged
and taken on here, but the Com
pany would have to make the same
provisions that are required of the
other two lines now operating here.
