Citizens Committee
Opposed 10 Use Of
king-Sized Buses

The Public Utilities Committee
of the Federation of Citizens AS
sociations has adopted a resolu-
ton opposing use of king sized
buses in the city unless certain
conditions are met.
The action was taken in ref
erence to a request by the Capital
Transit Co. to use the bigger buses
ION five additional lines. They
are used on three lines now.
A public hearing was held on
the question last week. The Com
missioners have not ruled yet.
Joseph D. Malloy, chairman OF
the federation committee, said use
of the big buses was opposed un-
less the transit company guar
antees there will be no lengthen-
ing of headway-the time between
buses.
Mr.. Malloy said the committee
also wanted assurance no addi-
tional traffic hazard will be cre-
Iated by the big buses: that they
will not be permitted on streets
$50 narrow that parking space will
have to be eliminated to let them
pass. and that damage to prop
|erty will not result from their use,
One of the main points made
by witnesses at the public hearing
was that the present buses are
rattling the houses in Georgetown
particularly. Bigger buses, they
maintained. would increase dam
age to the homes.
The committee report will be
presented to the federation for
action next month.
