that commutation rates between ata-

as follows; .
"Change in continuation fares regu-

had a system of computation fares in

of the price charged for such commu-
tation, and such price shall in no case

A motion that the secretary send

aniniously.
Charles J. Kelley suggested thst a
copy of the protest he sent to Mr. Mel-
len. .
Mr. Benton thought it a good idea
to send a copy to the different towns

Mr. t‘undee read an interesting lat-

it was brought out that apparently
the conunuters have not been up Ind.
doing so much as they‘ should be in
the present situation. Mr: Csndee cun-
tlnued that. while he is not a com-
muter. he was very much interested.
aanhc believes a raising of the rates
will injure the place and retard its
growth. if the commission will take
thc mailer up. he argued. it will at ‘
least delay the going into effect ofthe
rate. Mr. Richardson thought there
was something to that and thht every
year's incheaSc is so much glib.
It was voted to send a copy of this
protest to the business men of Bridge,
port. New Haven. Stamford. Mien.
New (fauna. Westport sud Bouthport.
with a request that they join in that
campaign.
After some discussion reuniting lilo
desirability of sending a copy of the
prepared protest to President Mellon.
or a separate protest. the latter courts
was decided upon.
M r, l’aul appointed Messrs. Alter .
and Condos to draw up the communlv
cation addressed to President Mellon.
The uiihiect of favorable rates to
faiiiilios was broached. Mr. Hamilton,
said the fact that the families pay rem“

favor; of the commuters' argument. it
was held that it was better to try for
