Bus Owners Push Motor Buses Over Sydney Trams
Evidence for the South Australian Royal Commission on motor buses features Charles Ludowici representing the National Roads and Motorists Association arguing the Sydney tram system is outdated. F H Stewart says his Metropolit an Bus Company runs 54 buses at about a third of a mile cost, and supports scrapping tramways for a 3000 bus fleet to ease traffic while taxing £150,000. A Hodgson notes city rail completion may shift suburban traffic. H W Keogh opposes private buses against trams as city traffic grows chaotic.
