Summary

Description

A pamphlet promoting the replacement of streetcars with buses in an upcoming election. It claimed the trolley bus "combines the best features of the street car and gas bus," and stated that trolley buses had replaced streetcars in forty cities over the preceding eight years.

"You can have this splendid modern system of transportation, right away - if you and your friends will vote "yes" on March 9th. The whole project is ready - it merely awaits your approval. Let's have action instead of more years of conversation!"
