Myers Plan on Franchise Sparks Transit Swap Offer
At a streets and walks committee meeting LE Myers proposed that if Topeka city council refuses a Topeka Manhattan electric line franchise the city railway would extend its line to any point within city limits. The aim is to block the new road from terminals in Topeka by allowing transfer via city railway tracks to center city, charging one fare to reach connecting lines. Myers said arrangements should allow tickets to any point from transfer at the street railway. The new plan seeks suburban lines and avoids funding the project, awaiting the other company’s response. A committee meeting next week will decide on the proposed franchise. Banquet at Ottawa. The Franklin County Republican club banquet will be at Ottawa Tonight with Governor Bailey and State Chairman Albauch expected.
