"Former Resident" Thinks That Beach Fare Should be 25 Cents. (Communicated.) Wilmington, N. C, July 16th 1907. Editor Star: I note with a great deal of interest the many improve ments being made by the Wilmington street car line in trackage and service. There, is Aone matter, however, on which I should like to have some in formation, 1. e., why the fare from- Wilmington to the beach and return should be 25 cents or three tickets for aoiiar; i minx mis is too-- nign compared with other places of a simi- ar situation. Take Ocean1 View, near Norfolk, Va., for example. -The rate rom any -part of Norfolk to this beach and return has been for some years 20 cents. It is practically about the same distance as our line and while Norfolk is larger than Wilmington they have more resorts. They have several bridges from Norfolk to Ocean View but they are not as long as our trestles.'-' I do v not think the rates should be the same but think our rate is out . of proportion and that 25c for the round trip would be fair and equit able and would result in larger traffic, which our system could easily take care of now with their improved facili ties.
