May Take Off Some Bus Runs Between Medford, Ashland Ashland It may be necessary to eliminate some lightly-patronized bus trips between Medford and Ashland, Ralph Matthews, manager of Evergreen Bus lines, told the Ashland Chamber of Commerce this week. Matthews pointed out that the bus company, along with other transit systems throughout the country, is having financial dif ficulty. He said the line made only $368.42 over expenses last year, and that this did not in elude any reserve for new equip ment nor for a return on invest nent. Question Rate Raise Matthews told the chamber meeting the inter-city line has never returned a profit on its investment under present own ership. But he questioned wheth er a rate increase would be of assistance because of the fact that both Greyhound and Trail ways buses carry intercity pas sengers at the same rates as Evergreen, and that if the local firm were to raise rates, many people would stop patronizing it. Night-time servic- between the cities is- particularly un profitable, he said, and said it may be necessary to eliminate some of the late hour trips. The firm now provides 14 round trips a day, and that six years ago the service was extended be yond the Southern Oregon col lege campus, but that few SOC students patronize the line. Chamber President Harry A. Skerry reported there are plans being made for a meeting of chamber and city officials of the two cities with bus company of ficials to discuss the problem.
