requested, the state railway commis
sion to indefinitely postpone a re
hearing, scheduled for July 27, con

train, substituted an electric train
and later a bus. Application was
made for leave to continue this ser
vice and the commission granted the
request subject to filing of objections
prior to July 1. The order was final
and the bus taken off. There were
subsequent objections and the com
pany reinstated the service on its

ing on the application. It is assumed
