J The Wood managers might ndvuu
tageously have disclosed all tin be

impossible to deny that Wood's pros

in" Washington think hopelessly, by tho
rumpus Wood's malingers permitted

Asked why the company estnbllshed n
fifteen-cent fare o Willow Grove when
It is receiving n five-cent fare to Fox

replied :
"There Is no Immediate Intention of
zoning those lines."
Mnny thousands of riders who visit
Willow Grove Pnrk will he affected by
the fnro boost effective todnv. Tho fnre
to the city line is five cents, from the
city line to Wcst'nvenue, Jenklntown,
an additional five- cents and from West
avenue to Willow Grove five cents more.
This zoning rfpplle.s to the cars using
the old York road.
The Glcnside enrs. which traverse
what is known as "the back road" to
Willow Grove, hnve their first zone fixed
between Snnsnm street nnd Ogontz. the
city line, from the cilv line to Ogpntz
nnd from Ogontz to Willom Orore.
Mr. Horton ussertcd the Willow

ran through what wns coinpnrntlvely
sparsely populated territory.
On York road, between the city line
nud Willow Grove, he continued, un
nvcrage of 002,000 riders per mile per
