 ON CHAPMAN ST. LINE
(Continued from First Page)

Chapman streets despite the fact that the stopping station is designated by signs placed by Traf- fic Sergeant King on the south- western corner. Bus drivers use Borg's store, which is in a build- ing owned by Pahosky, and as result of their abuse of this privilege, Pahosky has been obliged to expend money to repair the building, the officer testified.
 Albanese was recalled to the witness stand and asked why he does not use the designated stop ping station. He said he did not know who put the signs where they are, and he and the other drivers have orders to stop on the north western corner. Sometimes, they stop only long enough to discharge or take on passengers and again they stop a, minute or two.
 He said he does not think it fair to blame the drivers if the owner of the line Is at fault, to which Judge filling replied that the drivers

Even if the proprietor of Borg's store have told the drivers they may use the premises, the owner of the property can countermand the privilege because 1t is his property and he has leased or rented it for use only as store.

RE SURVEY OF CITY
APPEARS NECESSARY

Insurance rates in Mountain Home
are to the casual observer excessive
and there are many discriminatory
rates in effect, but this fact is not
at all out of the ordinary when 1t is
considered that the state bureau has
not made a survey of the city since
1920, according to word received
from headquarters by the Republi-
can. Mountain Home business men
should take an interest in the seeur-
ing of a re-survey of our city and
should act upon the recommended
tions of the insurance bureau in or
der that lower rate may be secured
with the idea of carrying more in
eurance. accommodations for or
dinances and additional fire equip
ment could be made to the Village
Board, which would materially de-
crease the rates. If the insurance
companies act upon the past fire rec
ord of a town, Mountain Home is
certainly entitled to a reduced rate
as they have not paid out any great
amount in losses during the past
off years. While fires are
much more frequent in Glenns Fer
y, yet the fire department of that
,ity is given higher rating than
he fire department of Mountain
Home.
