Dispute Over Lawrence Motor Violation Fines Waxes Much More Hot The dispute over the fines imposed upon speeders at Lawrence, L. waxed hot today, when Judge J.

Russell Sprague. of that growing Long Island village, undertook to answer the charges that Lawrence is working a "hold-up game" on unsuspecting motorists, as charged by David Harris, executive secretary of the Long Island Novel "PayasYou-Pass" Trolleys in Service in September. Transit Commissioner LeRoy T. Harkncss announced today that thfl Brooklyn City had ordered 200 new steel trolleys at a cost of M.100,000 to he added to the service on Brooklyn lines during September. At the same time Clinton E.

Morgan, general manager of the lines, stated that company had determined to abandon the operation of "trailers" a motor trolley dragging behind i' another car and that the tracers would he equipped with motors and operated Independently. The new steel trolleys ordered tor use early this fall will he put In service on the Greene and Gates, the Halsey and the Flatbush lines. They are described as "low-floor, front-entrance, renter-exit, pay-as-you-pass" type and are similar to the modern stvle nf car operated In Philadelphia. Cleveland. Buffalo and St.

Louis, 'with certain additional Improvements. In describing the new cars, General Manager Morgan raid today: "The decision to use this new type of car was the result of an intensive study of traffic conditions by th' Brooklyn City Railroad Company and the Transit Commission In an effort to save time and trouble for the passengers and thereby speed up the entire service. "In making this study we found that people are most likely to stand and wait for a surface car on a line with the corner of the building linr opposite the front end of the car. If they are obliged to enter at th? rear. It means that they will have to walk the length of the car, often through automobile traffic, befor-they can board it.

This menns a loss of time; therefore it seems more reasonable to put on cars which can be entered at the front. These cars contain this feature. 'F'ay-as-you-enter means holding up traffic while change is made and the nickels are dropped in. Thee cars need never be held for payments. The conductor sits at the center.

A double line of passengers enters at the front. The passengers who remain in the front part of the car pay as they pass the conductor when they move toward the exit, which is at the center. Those who wish to go to the rear of the car pay i' -s at the center necessity for the passenger to pay the fare while struggling to board the car, at the came time holding wav. to slln In frt this way, street cars are held hack so that they are very likely to find the block set against them at the next crossing, the automobiles Hipping ahead again, and an ac- lumulatlon of amount to a considerable total Cars Have Four Motors.
