"Since the last increase in fares, which took place in July of 1949, ! there -have been two increases in . wages to employees, a 50 per cent increase in the cost of tires, a 89 1er cent increase in the cost of gasoline and oiL a 35 per cent increase in the cost of material used in maintaining equipment, and 200 per cent increase in the cost of -insurance. "Added to this burden, was the i recent readjustment oi routes ana relocation of the downtown bus terminal, due to the inauguration I of the One Way street plan.

He is Fred C. Proehl, 65, named i to head the Greenback party's slate. The announcement was f made at party headquarters in t Indianapolis. Proehl doesn't expect to upset . the democratic and republican candidates. He won't even stump the country. "I don't hope to win," he said, "but ril send out some literature and make a few speeches and give the people something to think about. - t Proehl never ran for office be fore but he was a member of the -village council and the school board in his home town of Park ers Prairie, in Otter Tail county, Minn. ; ' He operated a small bank in ; northern Minnesota for; 10 years prior to 1921 when he quit ia disgust." Now he's a. strong foe of the banking system. He says it s unconstitutional. No place in the constitution, he insists, is any private institution or person given Greenbacks PickNominee the ngnt to circulate money. The Greenback party, he said, v fatakes the stand that money should be printed and circulated by the government "in accordance with .the constitution, for either goods or services rendered.
