Cleveland fears the "Jitney bun." Cleveland city officials and street railway officials alike sinon record today HRalntit the new auto-bus competition to street cars because It meatm the elimination of Cleveland's well known three cent street car fare. The city regulates the street cars. If the earnings of the Cleveland Railway company are over a stipulated amount, fares remain three cents. If they fall below, the fare reverts to riw cents. The popularity of the "jitney bus" sweeping east from the Pacific coast, already has Invaded Ohio.

Two plans to install the "Jltnles" In Cleveland are now worked out. One promoter is said to have ordered fifty with the trailers. Cleveland, it is feared, is next. The congested street car traffic here which Has already canned plans to be drawn for a subway systeru, would be shared with the "Jitney bussea" and would cut down the earnings of the railway company to such an extent that five-cent fare would be a permanent infliction.
