Fpany operating over such roads has
not had failure in IL months ard
several others have not had fail
urc for more than . year. Where
buses operate over dirt roads in wet
weather, however. difficulty is cx-
pcricnccd aud the total of failures
mounts.
investigation Of the routes used
by the buses shows that two or more
lines use the same roads over 200
miles. OF tho remaining 1881 miles
only LIZ arc country roads, the rest
being state highways. Of the 1919
miles Of state highway used by the
buses only l2l miles are wholly with
out Improvement.
Despite the fact that regular bus
routes pass through % counties Of
the state. eight counties receive the
major share Of the fees paid by the
motor bus companies. This is be-
cause the license fees are paid by the
home office and half of the total is
credited to the county from which
the registration is made.

carriers with total route mileage
of 2.O2i miles.
Routes Lenxt hcncd
The fact that the total mileage
nearly doubled while the number Of
firms engaged Nh the business in
creased only 60 per cent is,accountcd
, for by the fact that many existing
carriers have materially lengthc ned
, their routes during the two-ycar pc
riud.

and ut the end Of 1925 there were IL.
! Another feature Of the development
of the bus business is that vehicles
now used are generally much larger
than those in use two or more years
ago. the tendency being toward larg-
CT machines with a greater carrying
capacity.
| In 1926 buses operated 4l9,734
miles in 5.945 one-way trips and only
40 times did they fail to reach their
destination without undue delay. In
J 1924 the total mileage had grown to
i s92,l7S miles in 22,657 onc-way trips.
but failures to complete trips had
jumped to 26T. In 1925 the total
! mileage recorded was S3i.672, made
IN 1908 trips with 256 failures. Dur
IN. the two and half XSfs the total
mileage covered incrca ~ nearly 100
per cent. onc-way trips grew l6i per
cent. due to the average shortening
tof The trip length and failures to
complete trips showed still fur
;hcr increase. The average trip
length now is So miles. In 1928 it
was 70.6 miles.
i Trip Failures Increase
One Of tho main reasons ascribcd
by bus and highway officials for the
increasing failure Of uncomplctcd
trips is the increased size of the
/ buses and the fact that they arc op.
/ Grated on roads not built to carry
heavy equipment during inclcmcnt
weather. Where buses operate over
paved or well gravcled roads failures
are practically unknown. One COM

Of bus traffic on the same basis as
other public utilities, only 20 firms
were in the business Of hauling pas
sengcrs or freight for hire on reg
rlar schedule. Their combined route
mileage was 1.O46 miles.
BY the end of 1924 there were 80
carriers in the business operating
vehicles over total Of ,683 miles

IN addition to these fees the bus
companies pay a special fee to tho
state railroad commission which reg
ulatcs their activities. The total VI
these fees in 1925 was $2.lO6.
Still another fec paid by these
companies is the gasoline tax. II
has been estimated that the average
bus will do we'll to get eight miles
per gallon Of gasoline. It is esti-
mated that they pa,d Sl,oa3 -

SNATCH WOMAN'S PURSE
Two Youthful Bandits Work Again on Russell Street-SuspeCt With Revolver Under Arrest

That the youthful pair of purse snatchers who have operated suc- cessfully on the streets of the city of late, are still defying the police was evidenced this afternoon when they approached two women on Russell street and. asking them the location of Lake street, grabbed a purse one of the women was carry ing and made off with 1t.
 Captain Kelly was notified by H. T. Sloper of Russell street and Mo- torcycle Policeman W. P. Hayes and Sergeant P. J. O'Mara were detailed immediately to SCOUT the vicinity of the theft. They were unable to find the boys, but Officer Hayes and Supernumerary Officer Charles Nc Grath met Is year old boy on Grove Hill and found he was carry ing an automatic pistol. He was brought to the police station and questioned. but he denied being inn plicated in the purse snatching episodes.
 He said he bought the pistol from mail order house. Sergeant O'Mara visited the theaters but did not find boys answering the description of the pair. The pistol toter was de- tained pending arrival of the women whose names had not been learned by the police. Mir. Sloper said they came to him and reported their ex- perience and he telephoned the po- lice at once.
