 Wonder About Business
 Local merchants were wondering today whether the change of route ot Connecticut company buses, ap. proved yesterday by the state pub- lie utilities commission, will cause . fall.on in their business,
 several merchants near the inter- section of Main and Maple streets had been getting some business from the groups which came to that area to take busses. The Connecticut company was given permission to operate over the Memorial bridge on Maple street and down Water street to the freight depot during the hours when shifts of the U, s, Rubber Products, Inc, are chang. ing.
 However, 1t is believed the busses will 90 their usual routes, that Is, down to Kennedy's corner when the shifts are not changing. The com pany also was granted the right to operate husses on the Waterbury route down Spring street to Bridge street, thence to Church, Water and to the freight yard terminal. The buses on the westerly route had been taking passengers to the vest egn section of Waterbury,
 Opposition by Lionel LeClair, lo- cal bus driver, to both of these changes failed. The company over. ruled his claim that permission would interfere with his bus fran. chise and injure his business here. The commissions finding explains that enabling the company to pick up rubber workers at the shop would lessen pedestrian trafac and would be for the convenience of the most number of passengers.
 The company also received the right to abandon trolley tracks for Q distance of 4.3 miles from Ex. change place, Waterbury, to Weber's corner ct North Main street, Union City. The company is expected to submit c request soon to tear up tracks from Weber's corner to a point near the Maple and Main street intersection. Warden John J. Sheridan asked this at tho hearing and said the ofilcials agreed to do so.
