For added sak-n, Greyhound will trim buses with war-developed plastic film containing thousands oi microscopic glass lenses in every square inch 1 he Greyhound dog and designs on sides, front and rear are covereS with this ma teriel. Appearance of the bus remains unchanged in daylight^ other vehicles stopped along the high ways without lights are a matot ha.-atd Vii believe when motorists see how effective this new reflecting plastic is, they will adopt it and demand that manufacturers make it standard equip ment on new cars Equipping Greyhound's 4,500 buses with this safety feature will cost >250,000. Mr Ackerman said, and it is believed Greyhound's example will en courage other motor vehicle operators to adopt similar safety methods. "All Greyhound drivers carry emer gency flares, so out buses arc at no time without illumination the bus executive said. "Moat large truck com panies take similar precautions, but replacement of the pipe line has been made and reliable service given to the city but there would be a desirable advantage in de livering only perfectly clean water to the new system as would be the case if the plant were ready to use when the pipe line has been built. ' It may be noted in passing that patrons of the distribution system would of course receive full bene fit of filtered water if the plant were built just ahead of the reser voirs and the cost for both con struction and operation would be materially less than if the plant is built near the intake. Any final decision on this feature should await more definite recommenda tions and estimates which can fol low detailed surveys and actual planning before construction funds are provided.

Many other improvements arc on the way.

'■drtooo 10 a eon . .Within the past 18 months Pacific Greyhound fares in Oregon have been reduced to a uniform one-and-a-half-cents' per-milt... while the price of nearly everything else has gone UP. How did Greyhound do it? By increasing the frequency of service in Oregon! It works this way: As Greyhound adds more service, more people ride, 35 passengers can be carried for no more than it costs to carry 25. It costs little more to operate a depot for 6 buses a day than it does for 4...and so on. If more people ride, Greyhound’s cost of operation per passenger goes down. Pacific Greyhound then passes this saving on to the people ... in the form of the lowest fares in Oregon, and better, more frequent service than ever!
