FOREST E. DURLAND, 1601 Kelley St. City has no oil available at present, but will grant your request later in the spring, W. P. Hargon, clerk of the street commissioner’s office, said. Dear Mr. Flxlt: Hoefgen St., at Madison Ave., is just about Impassable. Previous appeals to you to have this little stretch graded or scraped resulted In your reply that “no grade had been established.” I feel sure that a little investigation by the proper official would convince him that this would not be necessary and that we really have cause for

complaint. Please. CHARLES LAUCK, 1004 S. Meridian St. That’s our story and w r e stick to it. rfowever, you might file petition with board of works to have a grade established. W. P. Hargon, clerk of the street commissioner’s office, Wednesday reiterated his statement that city regulations prevent repairs to ungraded streets.

Peoples Motor Coach Company \TOUR City Bus Lines are engaged in a fight for their •*■ very existence; for the right to serve the people of Indianapolis with safe, quick, convenient and comfortable transportation. \ ,

This right will either be granted or denied at a public hearing by the Public Service Commission at 9 A. M. Friday, May 22nd. The Peoples Motor Coach Company needs and asks the backing and support of every patron and potential patron. , * In its petition to the Commission, the Bus Company asks no favors. It has complied with all the regulatory Bus Laws and merely asks the right to operate on the streets of Indianapolis for your convenience. The Peoples JVlotor Coach Company believes there is room in this city for both electric and motor transportation and does not set itself up as a competitor of the electric system. Bus Service is a more advanced and entirely different mode of transportation.

Do you patrons on established lines want to lose your Bus Transportation? Do you friends and citizens on contemplated lines want bus service? ' Attend the Public Service Commission Hearing Friday morning in the Senate Chamber at the State House and show how you. stand on this issue. > • .... ~... * PEOPLES MOTOR COACH COMPANY SERVICE DE LUXE ’ A.
