' Vol. " No. ll The last time the Kitchener PUC undertook to provide cross- ‘Iown transportation in this city, people failed to patronize it for two main reasons. The first was because the schedule was changed so often no one knew when they waited at a bus stop whether there would be a bus along that day or not. The second was that the bus when it did arrive took ton er to get its pageant: to the Se,,'.,','] town area than they would have taken if they had walked. M, J, Smith, tt Waterloo Cham- ber of Commerce representative at the meeting said, "he could well: downtown in less time than " took to ride down on one of the PUC buses" ' We don‘t think that those inter. ested in seeing cross-town service in Waterloo are partieulerl con- cerned with who provides i.

A round W alerloo lt was also Mr. Preston's desire to we in the near future, all un- necessary driving eliminated trom the streets so that is buses may have all the road. won- der how long a Waterloo Council making an agreement of this kind. would last. Several residents have suggest- ed that it might be a good idea to Matt tax payments on an instal- ment basis. such as once a month or once every couple of months. This might mean a little mole work tqr the city hall stan, but Hugh! also be the means of alle- viating financial strain tor a num- ber ot taxpayers. It's worth think- ing about anyway; S. E. Preston said that the PUC buses were the only economical answer to transportation in the Twin Cities. If this is true, why is it that the PUC under their present system are losing more and more customers ever: year. .Du Waterloo and Kitchener peo- pie like to do things the expensive way?
