replacing the van and pointed out the cost of a cab was considerably more than cents said in almost all communities the vehicles have been donated and saw this as a projecl some group would like to take on but suggested ihe going back to people continuously for operating coats might wear the donors out She said iht cent fare is about right and contended an Increase to one dollar to people most
