Camden Officials lo Allcnd
Meeting in Newark
March 26
The city of Camden will make ofllclal
protest for the trolley riders of tho
county against the proposed zone faro
plnn of the Public Service Itnllway Com
pany. The City .Solicitor nnd live members
of City Counell will attend the hearing
before the Public Utilities Commission
In Newark on March 20 to oppose the
latest movo of the trolley company.
Tho action of the councllmanlc body
was swift and decisive. Ten minutes
after the Councllmen had adopted the
resolution calling for the protest, at a
special meeting held last night, Thomas
N. McCarler, president of the Publlo
Service Corporation, entered the cham
ber with a rouilnc of assistants nnd
prlvatn stenographers and asked to tell
the cpmpany's sldo of the controversy.
Tries to Juntlfy inerfAne
He was granted permission and for
nearly two hours spoke In an effort to
Justify the proposed scheme. Ills chief
nrgument was that the company would
x iriuaiiy g(. out of business If addi
tional re-venue was not obtained.
For half an hour following the speech,
Mr. McCart-r waj bombarded with epjes
tlons. The past of tlie company un
dug up by the inquirers and old scores
wero revived. He was careful In an
swering most of the questions, and to
many of them replied "I am unable to
answer that at present."
In addition to City Solicitor H. CI. C.
Bleakly, the following members of Coun
cil were appointed by President David
.Tester to attend tho hearing next week:
William A. Abbott, chalrmnn ; Fred
erick Von Nleda, J. Hartley Bowen,

Mayor Volncy O, Bennett, of Mcr

tho conference. Ho said his townsmen
were unalterably opposed to tho zonc
faro proposal, and desired him to co
operate with other communities In the
county to tako concerted action,
MontPevlll Shlnn, commissioner or tho
same borough, pointed out lhat It would
bo much cheaper to ride from Haddon
fleld to Philadelphia by rail thnn by
using the trolleys under the proposed
"zone-fare" system.
One of the most bitter arraignments
against tho company was made by
Mayor Thomas W. Jack, of Colllngs
wood. Mayor Jack declared the com
pany regarded Its contracts with munici
palities respecting fare charges "as mcro
scraps of paper."
Mayor II. IV. Hngerty, of I,aurol
Springs, pointed out that under the pro
posed "zone-fare" system residents of
his borough would havo to pay sixteen
cents He said they now pay fourteen
cents nnd formerly paid ten.
"The railroad faro from Laurel
Springs lo Philadelphia Is twelve cents "
bo ssld. "I am simply advising our
citizens to boycott the tiollcjs and uso
tho railroad ns much as possible."
