Business Men Protest Free Auto Bus Service Congressman Schuyler Meriltt of Stamlord is looking into the possib- ilities of raulstlng the use of motor busaes on interstate motor roads. in accordance 'with requests sent to him in Wtshington by Connecticut busi- ness men. Connecticut merchants have pro- tested against the practice recent- ly initiated by Jorge New York merchants of sending motor busses into Connecticut towns and cities and transporting passengers with- out charge to New York city stores. This practice is increasing. the business men say. to_ such an ex. tent that lbcal business is threat- ened with injury. A bill introduced by Representa- live James S. Parker of'Saiem. N. Y.. may offer possibilities of some relief. His bill which“ was intro- duced into the Senate by Senator Albert Cummins of. lows. provides for the regulation oflinterslato mo- tor vehicle trauspo ion. The measure. whic offers some hope to Connecticut business men is the provision of the bill that per- mils shall be issued only when the State board having authority. or the interstate commerce Commissioner is satisfied that- 'the public' conveni- once and necessity require such operation.” The Connecticut business men ap- péaied to Representative Merritt because of his position on the Com- mittee of Interstate and Foreign Commerce of the House of Repro- sentatives. The letters of protest sent to Re. presentativo Merritt say that these New York bueses take passengers. free from New Haven. 'rDanbury, Norwalk Bridgeport and other Con- necticut cities to .New York and re- turn thus taking business away from the local merchants. Industrial Leaders e-———I+ NEW HAVEN. Jan. zen—nam c.
