Express Buses Start
Silver Spring Run for
Extra Fare June 7

Operation of an extra-fare express
bus service by the Capital Transit
Co. between Silver Spring and down.
town Washington during rush hours
will begin at 7:30 am. June 7. The
new service was approved late yes
terday by the Public Utilities Com
mission.
E. C. Giddings, company vice
president, said the trip would cost
S cents more than for the present
nonexpress service.
The commission approved the
service, but not the extra fare.
Chairman James H. Flanagan ex-
planned the agency had no authority
to act on the fare because the extra
service was interstate. The COM
pany may set the new rate without
recourse to the Interstate Commerce
Commission because the new route
will be within the metropolitan
commercial area" he added.
The commission gave the COM
pany permission to run over the
following routes-to be known as
So:
Inbound from the District line at
Georgia avenue south via Kansas
avenue, Thirteenth street and the
Pennsylvania avenue NV. terminal.
Outbound from the Thirteenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue
NV. terminal north via the same
route to the District line terminal
at Georgia avenue.
The Allied Civic Group of Silver
Spring and the Silver Spring Board
of Trade opposed the plan. How
ever, no formal protest was filed
with the PUG, Mr.. Flanagan said.

PR CSElTT BOARD SUSTAINED Cont. from D. vas the omi sion of the secret ballot in the election of the six named Board menber9 J.L.Cope and L.M. DePriest both testified that the secret ballot was employed to e. lect Patten, but not the remaining six. Yrs. Scheib stated that she had called for secret ballot at the time and was ignored. E.S. Bauer admitted that he had sugge sted voting by acc1 i1nat ion. Paul Martin called for the m&nutes in order to clear up a few points, but they were not read. Finally a lotion was made to recall P.J. Fenmer. Carl Rasnus sen que st toned a group of Dairymen a right to vote because they had presented a petition to the Board Of Directors in which they stated that if the Board did not make an agre enent with them on the leasing of the Creamery by larcF l5, l94e, they should consider them autonat ic- ally out Of the Assoc iation. The Dairy1aen concerned, refused to honor this petit ion and claimed that it had not been accepted by the Bo ard of the M.V.E.C.A.
 Although sustained by a najority vote of members present, the Board was not certal m as th the ir status. Trey had agreed that they would honor petition for a Recall meeting according to the By-LoTs Of the Assoc iation. They had also made it clear that they did not recognize this as a legal Coop meeting. Mir. Davis Defense Attorney, had al so. made this point very clear just. previous to the casting of the ballots. However ,the petit ion ing group indicated that they were satisfied.

MOST PEOPLE thought Henry
Ford,s Ideas about putting wheels
under every American were Just .
lot of bunko. They just couldn't
see how anything like that could
be done. Some OF Ford's early
partners failed to grasp the ideas.
for they thought Of automobiles IS
belonging to the rich. Ford's idea
was too "harebrained" for them.
They couldn't understand how any
body could possibly make living
selling cars to poor" people.
Gut Henry Ford had the grain Of
an idea and the courage to see Il
through. America was q nation
that encouraged such things. With
an original investment of $4,000.
he put the nation literally on
wheels. Mass production was
brought into its own, and costs
came down. Ford wanted to make
only small profit on each car. and
this sold millions of them Compe-
titors had to offer good values. too.
Jobs and PayroIls
TIN LIZZIE and her imitators
called for roads. Dozens Of new
industries came into being, In the
building OF roads. Our highways
would circle the globe Al times.
Lizzie and the others had a thirst
for gasoline. Americas petroleum
industry grew enormously. Filling
stations had to quench that thirst.
All these things made jobs. Ameri-
ca became an industrial power,
with this Ford-inspired motive po-
wer all the while adding to her ef-
ficiency and activity.
This new mass production created
great industrial empires: mines for
coal and iron, rubber plantations,
timberlands and saw mills. hydro
electric works, chemicals, glass.
textiles. The result was more and
more jobs, bigger and bigger pay
rolls, more and more goods and
products that people wanted. Then,
with our cars we became touring
nation. All our states became
neighbors. We came to know the
face of America, the beautiful.
Plowed- Back Earnings
OUT OF that $4,000 and his idea.
Ford developed a great industrial
empire, with factories and assembly
plants and branch offices. Yet,
aside from the factories and the
equipment that he owned. Henry
Ford probably never owned more
than per cent Of the wealth that
he created. He was called a bill
lionaire, but he counted his re-
sources In buildings and machinery
not In money.
Ford was free to pillow back his
earnings into an industrial empire
