(From Automotive Daily News)
- KANSAS CITY," April 24. Co
ordination of buses with electric
rail systems under the guidance
of rail officials was advocated by
Britton I. Budd, president of the
Chicago' Rapid Transit company,
operating Chicago's elevated lines.
in a- paper read Tuesday afternoon
before the-annual convention of
the American Society of Civil En
gineers. J
His remarks emphasized those
made earlier In the convention" by
Ralph: Budd, president" of the
Great Northern. , , .... .
The paper was read by Charles
E. Thompson,. -vice president of
Mr. Budd's companies. .
'The public, Mr. Budd stated.
"demands bus service, but that
does not mean buses entirely can
supplant other transit facilities.
Co-ordination' of all .these facili
ties by,, existing, transportation
companies, so that each will' be
assigned " the; taslt for which' it
best is fitted, is what is needed.
"Competition between two trans
portation systems prevents either
from giving the best service.' Com
petitive rates between bus and rail
systems are costly in both because
bus operation is more expensive
than rail.
"In urban service the - proper
sphere of tho bus is as an auxiliary
of the tram " company carrying
hasn't the carrying capacity, ,
' "Railway nien with tneir special
training are fitted better to oper
ate motor coaqlies and co-ordinate
them with the! railways.
"Summing pp - the situation, I
believe in the aiear future bus op
eration will hive simmered down
to some such sound economic basis
as this. Where It is economical to
o'perate buses they will be run and
where the public best can be
served by rail'llnes they will have
a clear field. ; .
iteviewing jtne growin oi, our
traffic Mr. Budd said that in 192C
only' sixteen rail lines had auxili
ary bus service while in 1925 bus
es were operated in conjunction
with 280 electric railways. From

Universally accepted as the outstanding automobile accomplishment

motor construction with startling results. .

From a bore of 2 lSi inches and a stroke
of 4 inches, it develops greater horse

.With a speed capacity well in excess of
60 miles an hour, with ability on, hills
which is amazing, and with acceleration
which is a genuine revelation in flexibi

vAST year Packard Six sales
Ow were far more than double
1924iVorume.i: .
The-reason for this greatly in
creased demand,, for .Packard
Six comfort, beauty and dis
tinction is simple. ; An ever-'
growing proportion of, .the '
public is learning three impor
tant facts. ?.-"','
These. facts are: ; ! "
First.' That the Packard Six is
not high in price, costing far .
less than most men think. For
example, the five -passenger,
sedan is but $. 2919 deliver-,
ed at your door. .
Second. That the Packard ; Six
may be bought on a liberal
v payment plan which distributes
its cost over , a year, t For ex-.,
ample, the down payment on
.the five -passenger sedan is
$729.75 from which is deducted
the value of the used car turned
in. The monthly payments are
then but $-123.25 '
Third.lThat it .is better business
and real economy to buy a good .
car arid keep it twice as long-
-than tp buy a succession of low
priced yearly-models cars and
pay in depreciation more than is :.
saved in first cost. For example, s
the car most frequently turned' 1
in by Packard Six buyers has
been driven 'an average of
only 15)87 mfles! - . r 'v.
Thosel thousands who bought
Packard Six cars last year ex
pect to keep them at least
twice as long as the cars they :
turned in. And 98 of those
who bought Packard cars dur
: ing the past six , years are
: stl Packard owners. -; . '..-
' Packard Six ownership costs
less bytthd mile. May we tell
you more about jthia famous
car? We will.be glad. to do It
