Public Service Review on Train Discontinuances and Zeppelin Crash
The public service commission approves the Baltimore and Ohio petition to discontinue local trains in northern state sections. Objections by civic bodies were largely withdrawn as the public acknowledges reduced use of local trains and a shift to private bus services. Commentary questions fairness of mandating continued operations despite declining demand. The piece also discusses the Graf Zeppelin crisis and Al Capone’s rapid Philadelphia arrest, noting mechanical anomalies and the public safety reaction.
