Greensboto News. Rumors of efforts at bus consolida tion between here and Charlotteover the much-traveled sections of routes No. 10 to Salisbury and route No. 15 from there to Charlotte, are heard here, with talk of options and a jeon test between two groups to get eoii trol of the traffic. It was learned ’here yesterday that consolidation has been sought but so far has no: been accomplished. The four concerns operating on the two routes seem to be in far better finan cial shape than were those that op erated between here and Raleigh' just before they were bought up by Ham b'.eton and Company, investment bank eds. of Baltimore, and a company known as the Carolina Coach Com pany formed to operated them as an etity. At the time it was supposed-ithat in good time the purchasers of the three lines that had run front here to Raleigh would make attempt* to buy the Greensboto Charlotte op operators cut. hut it does not seem’that those who are said to have made ap- j proaehes to purchase are connected in any way with the Hambleton pgople or the persons who incorporated the Carolina Company. Little information could be secured concerning the matter, other than seme talk of options secured, but no person would allow himself be quoted publicly. The bus business seems to be thriv ing considerably, compared to the lean deeply competitive days of the.pio neers. The union bus station here yesterday was filled with folk going and coming and ticket salesmen and baggage checkers were busy. An air of prosperity seemed to hang over the place and all seemed very peaceful, compared with the old days when bus operators competed fiercely for busi ness.
