areas of the suburbs of Melbourne. The losses incurred in missed fares are said to be much less than those under the two-men system, and accidents have been reduced by about 80 per cent. INITIAL DIFFICULTIES It is admitted that in initiating the system some awkwardness and congestion may be experienced from the fact that passengers board and leave the car at the same end, but structural alteration of the present cars and the education of the public will quickly overcome these difficulties here as elsewhere. It should be remembered that the crowding on to cars usually takes place (at least it will be the case in New Plymouth) at the central point, and at that point fares are not handled at all. Those who are alighting there have paid already, and those who are boarding eats will pay as they leave, which will in most cases be in ones and twos at various stopping places along the route. OTHER SYSTEMS CHANGED. It may be of interest to state that in the United States and Canada up to September, 1917, lift tramway systems were transformed to the one-man system, and of these 80 served communities of over 25,000 people. THE SAVING TO THE BOROUGH. The saving to the New Plymouth Borough by the adoption of the system is estimated in round figures at £I6OO per annum. ONE-MAN ELECTRIC BUS. Mr. Bartlcy stated that it is the intention to run the new electric bus on the one-man system. He hopes to have the fare-box in readiness and to commence a bua service on Wednesday of next week—the. first' day of . the Taranaki Show. It is hoped to have the local service changed over to the one-man system within the next few months.
