The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1928-09-21

In conferences with Earl V.
Fisher, executive secretary of the
Public Utilities Commission, one OF
the attorneys for the Pennsylvania,
yesterday revealed. that the big rail
way system is developing an or
ganizati ton for operating a motor
bus and taxicab service from the
Union Station here to local hotels
and probably direct to private resi-
dences.
The railroad company was told
that formal public hearings would
be necessary before the service
could be authorized or denied by
the commission.
The plan is to sell tickets in New
York with the destination stated on
the ticket. the final stub to repre-
sent transportation from the Union
Station here to the passenger
home or hotel.
proposal is whether the supple
mental transportation is interstate
or intrastate. The railway will
probably insist that the bus or taxi
cab represents a continuation. in
effect, on their own railway. In a
word, it would mean extending the
Pennsylvania Railroad to your front
door.

ARE M|RED
IN STREET

Nothing short of the far-famed
mud Of Flanders Field. equals the
mire that has been proving the
nemesis Of truck drivers and
motorists at Second and III Streets
Northwest. the last few days.
Recent rains, mixed with the clay
uneartnei by District workmen in
prepa ring to build a new sewer,
brought about the condition which
has aroused the ire of hundreds.
The situation was climaxed yester-'
day wnen some eight or nine trucks,
a taxi cab and couple of touring
cars got stuck.
Street car service on several lines
passing the intersection was inter
rupted 20 long as the proletariAt
were going to work yesterday that
the more prudent walked. Those
who waited for resumption of serv-
ice were delayed more than a half
an hour.
When several trucks became en-
bedded in the muck about o'clock
yesterday. S. Gelfand operator of
store at Second and II Streets mott
fled police. A traffic officer finally
Strengthened out the tangle.
