Bay State Road Debt A Mystery At Public Hearing
Bay State Street Railway President P F Sullivan testified at a six cent fare hearing before the Public Service Commission recounting periods of profitability and a floating debt from late 1912. He said seven years of effort failed to reveal the debt’s purpose, and that stockholders had already borne burdens from unwise purchases of trolley roads. He supported a 7 percent fare increase as reasonable for public benefit, while noting losses from workingmen tickets movies and parks.
