Jitneys Cut Duluth Taxi Earnings Hit Street Cars Hard
Jitney buses in Duluth cost the street railway about 1000 dollars a day, driving losses for six months and reducing suburban rail service. About 6900 workers ride jitneys each morning and 1900 daily for other trips, while taxicab rates fell to one hour. Accidents and traffic violations have risen since the first jitney appeared on March 11, threatening downtown Duluth’s gains and suburban streetcar service.

Apponyi Letter on Neutrality and England Policy
Count Albert Apponyi argues in a letter printed via the Daily American-Hungarian People’s Voice that American neutrality should be maintained while criticizing England for Asia policy and Japan’s rise. He frames U S interests against British actions and likens England’s influence to threats to the United States’ material welfare. Herman Ridder’s note accompanies the piece, urging fair American judgment of European powers.
