If the "Tooncrvlllo" trolley rnto
(ncrcaso Is allowed, It will cost
Torresdalo students at the Frank
ford High School seventee cents to
ride each way to school, unless they
walk from Frankford avenue and
Bridge street.
It will cost them twelve cehts each

way on the Rapid Transit Co. cars.
Residents of thol extreme northeast
will fight the "Todnervillc trolley's"
plan to Increase fares In that section.
The Holmcsburg Improvement Asso-
elation has prepared a protest against
the rise and will file It with the Public
Service Commission at once. '
Tho Holmosbur., Tacony and Frank
ford line, known locally as the "Hop
toad, Tadpole and Froir tine," ns well
s "Toonervllle." already Is under fire
from residents for poor service.
The company has filed notice of its
new schedule with tho Public Service
Commission, tho rise to take effect on
September 15. Notice of the proposed
increase also has been posted in tho
cftrs
Representative James A. Dunn, who
led the fight of citizens -when the com
pany inaugurated a six-cent rate, is in
the thick of the present battle against
the plan to charge twelve cents for the
former six-cent ride.
"Last time we were beaten because
we did not know wc had to file our pro
test within thirty days of the notifica
tion of an Increase," he said today:
"but we know now, and our protest
will be in the hands of the commission
in ample time.
Affects New Bathing Beach
"This is our chance to air all our
enmnlolnts at n public hearing on tho
protest and force tho company to live;
ip to the laws unaer wmen u operates
or co out of business.
"If the twelve-cent rate is allowed. It
will make the new municipal bathing
beach at Pleasant Hill Park a resort for

pay the 'Tboncrville line twelve cents
to ride from any point south of Hrtmes
bure to n point just above it. where
they must get off tho trolleys and 'take
a Jitney or walk to the beach.
"The meeting of citizens in theJ
Helmesburg library on Monday night

themselves to stay in the fight to the

10 BUY TICKETS
Ferry and Railroad Station
Crowded on Last Day of
. Low Prices
ETRA CLERKS TONIGHT
This was "bargain day" at the
Chestnut and Market streets ferries,
and at the local railroad stations.
Thousands of commuters took advan
tage of the railroads' decision to honor
all commutation tickets sold today or
earlier for tho full time specified, and
commuters bought as large a supply as
their purses would warrant.
Joseph Taylor, agent in charge nt
the Chestnut stroct ferry, said that be
tween the hours of 0 nnd 0 o'clock this
morning five times as many tickets were
sold as normally arc put out between
these hours. 0. W. Smith, agent in
charge nt the Market street ferry of the
Pennsylvania Rnllroad, reported similar
conuiuons. At both terry nouses the
ticket-sellers were fairly swamped with
applicants for commutation,
An especially large business was done
in ferry tickets. These have been sold
at tho rote of twenty-five cents n strip
nnd after today's, "bargain salo" is over
will go to thirty cents n strip. Many
users of tho ferry bought fifty strips.
The railroad officials reported that
early morning travel also was unusually
heavy, many of tho commuters taking
earlier trains than usual so they would
havo time to lay in their stock of com
mutation tickets. Even with this pre
caution, the lines were so long thnt a
largo number had to give up their places
finally in order not to be late for work.
The crowds were good-humored in
spite of the time they had to wait. They
figured out the amount of money they
would save by purchasing the tickets in
advance, instead of waiting for higher
prices that will be ushered in tomorrow,
nrfd there vas much "kidding" of the
ticket sellers' on the way the commuters
wcro "putting it over" on the rail
roads. Tho railroad officials had anticipated
a rush and posted extra ticket sellers at
tho yrindows. In one of the stations
to accommodate the crowd tickets were
sold, from the information window. In
anticipation of another heavy demand
for. tickets after quitting time this af
ternoon extra clerks will be put on be
ginning at 4 o'clock this afternoon at
all the stations. Tickets will be sold
at the old rate until midnight tonight.
The "Commuters' League," a Jersey
organization, helped spread round tho
news that the railroads had decided to
honor all tickets sold before the nw
rates go into effect. The railroads mado
the announcement only yesterday after
noon. ,
The advance in passenger tariffs goes
into effect tomorrow. As planned by
the railroads, only those commutation
tickets sold after August 1 which ran
out in not more than thirty-five days
were to be honored after August 20.
Thero was a great storm of protest at
this, the commuters claiming that the
tickets sold were a contract on the part
of tho railroad, and there were some
threats of suit if the railroad refused
to abide by its part of the agreement.
The Pennsylvania Railroad was the
first to announce yesterday afternoon
that it had fescinded the earlier order.
Both tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
and the Reading Railway quickly fol
lowed suit.
Tho change in plan means the loss of
many thousands of dollars to the rail
roads, but assures a fair deal to the
commuters.
ATTACK NEW BRIDGE PLAN
Circulars Declare Taxpayers Will
Pay for Autolsts' Convenience
The Phlladclphla-Cumden bridge
project, which comes up before the vot
ers of New Jersey for ratification in
November, is being subjected to a "gas"
attack.
Printed propaganda sheets arc being
circulated by tho anti-bridge interests
attacking the projert on the ground that
the only real beneficiaries will be the
drivers of "gas buggies" from Penn
sylvania. The circulars say that the building of
tho bridgo will entail nn enormous ex
pense which will lie directly with the
taxpayers. They neglect to say any
thing about increased property values
in New Jersey due to tho project.
The method of attack is similar to
that employed in the northern counties
of New Jersey when opposition de
veloped against the proposed Hudson
river tunnels. The clrculnrs in that
matter, as in the case of the Philadcl-phla-Camden
bridge, oppose the bond
ing of the state for bridge and tunnel
purposes.

LINDE
TEACHERS' UNREST VH .
SHOWNINpGESlli;.:;'
Resignations, However, Are Not
Much Above Normal, Says
Doctor Wheeler
FINANCES MAIN CAUSE
While the nverage number of resig
nations among teachers in the higher
schools In thl city is so far about the
some as In the Inst few years, there
has been an undoubted fluctuation nnd
unrest reflecting the spirit of the times,
according to Dr. George Wheeler, ui
socinte superintendent of schools:
"Of roursc, the resignation rate is
higher now thnn It wns before the
war," said Doctor Wheeler. "Hut in
the Inst few years there has not been
a great deal of difference.
"The reasons for rmigiiatlon are in
teresting. While the present school
situation has not yet made itself felt
In this way, there undoubtedly have
been a number of chauKiw nrttinted by
the motive of mon- money unci better
opportunities.
"A number of the teachers, for ex
ample, have had chances ut better-nol-aries
and offering a wider field in col
leges. Many have taken examinations
in other cities, such as New York and
Pittsburgh, where the fiuaucial Induce
merfts nro somewhat higher than they
nre here, while still others ore going
into other fields of work.
"One element that eompllcntos the
situation sqmewhnt is the Rmnll town
competition. ' This nnd other big cities
have evolved n schedule sstem of sal
aries, according to the experience nnd
relative fitness of teachers. The small
towns have no such systems nnd ac
rnrrilnfflv nre likely to make a separate
dicker with every teacher they seek to i
obtain.
"Thus It often happens thnt n tcucher
with comparatively meager experience
obtuins much more for his or her serv
ices than the more experienced teacher
under the schedule arrangement. The
small town, on the other bund, not
being bound by schedule, gets the teacher
it wants at the time it wants them, nnd
can afford to pny the price necessary.
"On the other hand, wo have many
teachers who have left the Philadelphia
school service and gone into other fields
who nre returning. The industrial sit
uation is not ns good as it was for one
thing, and then ngnin many teachers
hnva an innate love for their profes
sion that they cannot resist."
