CHAPPAQUA, N. Y. Feb 29. The honor system fails for commuters on the 7 43 from Chappaqua as a coinbox swallows coins but keeps change. Stationmaster George Williams had a hole drilled to film thefts, warned riders, and then burned the footage. Despite publicity, losses recur at exactly $12.45 weekly, only on this train while other morning trains keep the open box.
