There are those who think I iiu commutation bus rates across the bridge to the city to l)<' us reasonable as can be expected, as others insist they are loo high. Quite a large body of opinion favors the establish­ ment by the municipality of a biis line across the bridge to Vancouver, while a few seem to think it would, be well for llm municipality to sell the ferries And confine.their operations to the buses. All, however, are agreed that West Vancouver siiouUi^aintain its transportation between/here and the^city, w liid i^ in ion we most heartily endorse. , , , , » ... .i.The. fer̂ ^̂ ̂ and always have been the backb(>no of our transportation systerh.' E the municipality,"took over the transportation of her citizens and others to and from VancioUver, it is the ferries which have made good the losses on the buses. Today, as in the past, the ferries are, rnaking money/while the buses are being operated a t a loss. There- lore, whatever changes or extensions are* made, the ferries must be retained. In this connection it should be. stated they represent a very substantial investment, and, having been; built for our special needs,-are unsuitable for other purposes. Which means tha t, unless we were extremely fortunate,, they could only be disposed of a t a heavy loss. , The basic ra te por passenger charged by motor bus com- iianies throughout th e American Continent is 2 'cents per mile. In other'words,' this is the lowest rate a t whiChMt is possible to operate a t a profit. We are informed on the best authority that the distance from Ambleside to the centre of the oity is approximately 6 miles, which would make the bus fare 12 cents.. The present ide luxe, buses used by th e Pacific Stages on their run carry twenty-nine passengers: The ̂ average number of passengers using these buses would not. be twenty per_triiCbut, taking these figures as the average, an9ther 5 cents > acided to the cost peir passenger per trip with the bridge toll for a bus $l.O0Tas a t p resen t., Add to the above the 4 cents bridge toll for every passenger, and one arrives a t a - total *of--2Tcents:instead; of the-17- cent-commutaition -rate_be- tween Ambleside and the city as offered by the Pacific Stages, ■ They^ state they cannot make the'^rate lower, which can be readily* understood, with th e above figures before usi I Consequently, i t would appear tha t anyjow ering in th^ ̂ cost of thT 'rates: in'question..m^^ la I'oppy Tea' & Musical I'rogmm ... ■ J . . w ' The Canadian Legion W.
