(United Press Telephoto) Vast Crowds Line London Funeral Roule London people said farewell today to King George VI Well Beloved." In the wintry early morning mists the first of the late British Monarch's people shuffled to curbs lining the 3 -mile route of the funeral cortege. Long before London ordinarily comes awake, sleepy secretaries, workmen, housewives, mothers with children wrapped in layers of blankets, American soldiers and their wives, priests and businessmen from London's city, joined waiters and other night workers along the streets down which the King's coffin rode on a gun carriage. Those marching in the funeral procession were select--royalty.

Col. it looked hough he There has been no hint as to what the Communists will suggest in their new plan for a post-armistice peace conference. Previously the U.N. agreed to talk about the withdrawal of foreign troops from Korea and a final peace settlement, but rejected a Red proposal to discuss other Asian problems related to Korea. Joy conferred in Tokyo with Gen.

John E. Hull, Army vice chief of staff, and U. Alexis Johnson, deputy secretary of state for the Far East, as well as with General Ridgway. Hull de- Troy Bus Firm Asks Fare Raise The Troy Fifth Avenue Bus today asked the Stale Public Service Commission for permission to increase its fares immediately to make up for increased costs and decrease in off-peak riding. The proposed fare would be raised to ten cents per ride one-way over the'five-and-a-half mile route in the city.

School token and adult token rates would be increased on a corresponding scale. The statutory requirement would permit the fares to be raised effective March 16. if permission is granted, but the company asked that the 30-day period be waived so that the proposed new tariff schedule may be put into effect immediately upon P.S.C. approval. Fifth Avenue Bus was the last line in this area to offer a five-cent fare.

This was increased to seven cents in September, and was increased to eight cents in September, 1950. The company contends the revenues realized from the last increase have been erased by a decrease in the number of passengers. In a formal request to the P.S.C., Joseph E. Fettig, president and general manager of the bus company, stated: "The adult fare structure continues to fall during the off-peak hours. The increased fare of September, 1950, has completely vanished because of passenger decrease.

"The school token passenger has now become serious. On school days additional busses must be sent out to take care of the load and the number of school token passengers has increased (a loaded bus wJth children at three and one- third cents will not defray the expense of the operator)." The request stated that, in order to continue to furnish adequate service and good equipment, the company is forced to file the new tariff to make up for increased costs, higher insurance rates, and the decline in off-peak riding. Under the proposed plan, one- way adult fare over the 5.5 miles cents, and adult tokens would sold for three for 25 cents, or eight-and-one-third cents each. At present, the fare is eight cents sell for School tokens would' be increased to five cents each and cents or twenty for $1. They now sell at the rate of three-and- a-third cents apiece.

School tokens may be used only on school days between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Children under five years of age be carried free. nic trappings. They had come mourn their King.

Hickman said U.N. and staff officers agreed to study remaining differences overnight and "see if we can't come closer." Darrow said both sides at the truce supervision session rehashed arguments over troop rotation and the number of ports of entry to be inspected by neutral teams. He said there also was some discussion of a new Red demand that inspection teams check on specific design as weil as the overall type of supplies and equipment moving into Korea during an armistice. "We are not apart on a lot of these issues. We could settle them easily if they wanted it," Darrow said.
