RIVALRY AMONG

“While it. is scarcely likely that
there will be any candidate who does
not know that this week marks the

reminder to all who are anxious to
create a large vote reserve. attention
is called to this infportant fact. By
studying the vote schedule, it will be
seen that February 12 starts another
period in the campaign -and brings
with it an appreciable reduction in
value of votes.
If this reduction Were confined
solely to the regular schedule of
votes. the schedule used for issuing
votes on individual subscripilons. per-

Cause Some
The new trolley fare rate ordered by"
th. Public Utilities commission for
Norwalk went into effect yesterday
with little confusion, but considerable
grumbling on the parts of the public.
The new fare schedule calls for a five
cent fare on \Vcst avenue: on other
lines the fare is ten cents or a token
costing three for twenty-five cents.
Connecticut company officials were
considerably elated over the manner
in which the new system went into
effect. It was expected that there
would be considerable delay and that.
trolleys would be running late as the
result of the motormen selling tokens
and issuing transfers. But. except in a
few cases. the cars were operated ’on
reghlar running schedule.
On the other hand. there was con.
siderable complaint in ieferenccato the
Stamford-Norwalk cars which now
run express between the First and
Second Districts. A good many of the
1,, eople could see no reason why the
trolley should not stop to take 0:1
passengers. Trolley officials are now
considering this problem. Superin—
tendent Thomas Macl.can. of the Nerv-

whereby it will be possible to pick up
passengers on the “fest avenue line. -..
The new fare which is now in effect
was worked out by the Public Utilities ’
Commission. representatives of the
Connecticut. company and Norwalk
city officials. All agreed that five cents
was only a fare for “’est avenue. It
was agreed that on other lines that
the [axe should be eight and a third
cents.
Superintendent MacLean said that.
the motorman had had a heavy de-
‘mand for trolley tokens which are‘
used to pay fares.
Instead of paying a straight ten
cents fare. the public can purchase
tokens from motorman at the rate of
three for twenty-five cents. The to-
kens entitled the riding public to
transfers on anyline within the city.
Under the new trolley fare, fares
are paid by passengers upon‘mentrance
to the car on all lines within the city

and West avenue lines. 011 \Vinnipauk
