From June (the date of the wage increase) to De-
cember 31, 1923, the decrease in revenue compared
with the same period of 1922 was $1970!) or 2%.
If the decrease in revenue by months is considered,
the trend is readily perceived. The loss in revenue
for the month of November. 1923, compared with
November, 1922, was $41.00!), or 4%. and the loss for
the month of December, 1922, was $86,500 or 7%.
The loss in revenue during December, as compared
with December, 1922, was $2,800 per day. (file in-
crease in payroll costs was $2,150 per day.
The decrease in token rates of last April, and the
increase in‘payroll costs from last June, have result-
ed in a decrease in the net revenue of the company,
from June 151: to December 3151:, of $585,000, or at
the rate of one million dollars a year.
As more passengers were carried in 1923 than in
1922, it is undesirable to economize any further by
reduction in street car service.
In addition to the above figures, the Connecticut
Company still owes the State of Connecticut about
$800,000 in back taxes. At the termination of the
war period, this figure was 01.800000, but since
June, 1922, slightly over a million dollars has been
paid to the state on this long overdue account, as
wen as over $840,000 paid in current taxes Since
that (late. ‘ ,
In all lines of business, when costs rise, prices must
rise to meet them. This fundamental rule is no dif.’
ferent when trolley operation is considered. When
costs show a downward trend, prices ought to be
downward, and vice versa.
In March, 1922, the Connecticut Company made 1
voluntarv reduction in the then existing 10 cent fare,
to three 'tokens for 252, a reduction of about 16%%.
This was done as the trend of revenues was ppwnrd,
because of the we fare and because of relief from
unrestricted jitney competition. The trend of costs
was downward.
Again in April, 1923, a voluntary reduction in tok-
en rate was made, two tokens being sold for 15¢. This
was a reduction of 10% over the previous rate, and
was made because increased riding had kept the
trend of revenues upward, and wage reductions and
other economies in operation had kept the trend of
costs downward.
This reduction has resulted in a steady downward
trend of revenues, because, while riding has increas—
ed under the 2 for 15: rate, the increase has not been
suficient to offset the 10% reduction. In addition,
wage rate increases to employees were necessary in
June. adding over $750,000 a year to payroll costs.
The trend of cost is decidedly upward.
